Title: [RESOLVED] Ten Questions... [RPGXP]
Post by: Inunah on August 17, 2007, 07:13:03 PM
Okay so I need help with a lot of things...

1. How to make a nice intro
2. Make it so that there's only one player to start off with
3. Different start up screen
4. I can't make sprites.. Can someone do that for me?
5. Different Menu Layout
6. Different Menu Skin
7. How do you use scripts?
8. How do I make it so that it's like Final Fantasy turn based battles?
9. How do I change the command buttons(Like B is one button, A is another, then start and so on...)?
10. How do I make good cutscenes? I can't seem to even make one...

Edit: Oh and also I need to know how to create good battles with People and how to make it so some people block the way into places...

I looked around but didn't see any topics that had information in a way I could understand it.

Then RMXP clearly isn't for you.
Title: Re: Ten Questions... [RPGXP]
Post by: Inunah on August 17, 2007, 07:27:52 PM
All I wanted to know is how to do stuff without freaking scripts for everything... Geeze I can't even make battle encounters yet!!! I'm still in the process of making towns... v.v

And it clearly is for me seeing as I have fun while i'm trying to make my RPG that really sucks butt right now.
Edit: Oh, but I want to create a game, but GM isn't for me at all seeing as simple mode on that is too advanced for me to figure out..

The questions you asked are very, very easy to figure out. You do not need a script for everything.  Most of the things you asked for are in the Database, if you can even find that. If you cannot understand a simple tutorial, then, as Falcon stated, RMXP is not for you.

Also, if you looked in the fucking tutorials section, you wouldn't be asking such useless questions. Here is a tutorial for beginners: http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,762.0.html

Next time,  use common sense before asking easy questions like this.

Sorry for the flaming, but seriously.

Post by: Inunah on August 17, 2007, 08:27:36 PM
I already looked in tutorials.. I've read them all, and I don't understand them.

It's all because nobody's made a tutorial I can understand...

*Sigh* Maybe someone should start making tutorials for blondes... :(


Oh and that link links to something that has too many words. I understand everything up to scripts then that's where I blank out and stop reading because there's too much explanation to it all and I can't understand... Although, if there wasn't any explanation I wouldn't understand either..

Reading tutorials is a fack.

You can't understand that tutorial?I thought dumb blondes were just a stereotype, but apparently not. If you can't even understand Constance's tutorial, then truly, RMXP is not for you.

Well I want to create a game... And RMXP is a whole lot easier than Game Maker(I can't even make a person be on the screen in the game on that one) so it must definitely be for me since I understand everything except scripting... And doing whatever I mentioned when I posted the topic.. And Making custom anything for the game.... And Making stores and inns.. And making the game multilingual without knowing more than 1 language... And other stuff..


On another note, talking to people who flame me makes me want to go facking hit someone right now.

If you can do all that, then you can surely do the questions you asked.

Nope, I tried already starting with cutscenes. Every time I tried making a cutscene it would repeat it over and over and over even when I tried to get out of it.

*sigh* Tell me which questions you've accomplished and which ones you haven't, and then I'll help you.

Post by: firerain on August 17, 2007, 08:53:54 PM
1. To long to explain

2. Go into Tools > Database, then click the 'System' tab, then right-click the three other party members in the list on the left and click 'Delete'.

3.Get a new Title Graphic (Resource Forum)

4. Resource Section, tonnes in there.

5. Change the windowskin, all of this is under System. Look in the Resource forum for it.

6. Same as 5

7.A bit to complicated for you.

8.Scripts >_> look in the Scripts forum, they come with instructions.

9.Press F1 ingame.

10.TUTORIALS!

Post by: Deliciously_Saucy on August 17, 2007, 08:59:08 PM
Looks like this is over kill by now, but hey already written >_>

Okay so I need help with a lot of things...

1. How to make a nice intro

That's really like asking someone to teach you how to paint, something that can't be done in a single post. We have a teacher/student program *somewhere* which is what I would suggest if you can find someone to help you.

Quote
2. Make it so that there's only one player to start off with

Go into Database then system and you will see something like 'starting party', right click to add/remove.

Quote
3. Different start up screen

Again in the system area.

Quote
4. I can't make sprites.. Can someone do that for me?

Yes, you could  request them in the resource area, but I highly recommend becoming familiar with the community first and perhaps make a topic about your game in the project section.

Quote
5. Different Menu Layout
6. Different Menu Skin

System.

Quote
7. How do you use scripts?

Copy/paste or learn with the tutorials/teacher system.

Quote
8. How do I make it so that it's like Final Fantasy turn based battles?

Look in the script area for the proper battle style. Not sure which or where, but there's an index topic stickied.

Quote
9. How do I change the command buttons(Like B is one button, A is another, then start and so on...)?

F1

Quote
10. How do I make good cutscenes? I can't seem to even make one...

Practice, tutorials.

Quote
Edit: Oh and also I need to know how to create good battles with People and how to make it so some people block the way into places...

Not sure what you mean with that one, but I'm assuming the above is applicable.

Oh now I get it... Mostly..

Oh and i'm a she. Not a she/he. Just a she. lol

Oh and about posting a topic about my game... Eh, it doesn't meet requirements yet. It has no story(Yeah i'm crazy enough to make a game before I make the story... But it's based off of InuYasha, there's no story you need to know, right?), it has no screenshots(All places are beta and I'll only release screenshots of final version places), it has no demo(I'm not releasing a demo that sucks butt), and I have yet to even have more than nine places...

Make Something Original!!!

And I can't believe we just wasted time in this  G'rrr ;____;

lol, If ya want sprites, start the way as Saucy said, and for more support/Help, do the same said by Saucy.
Title: Re: Ten Questions... [RPGXP]
Post by: Inunah on August 17, 2007, 09:30:40 PM
If I don't base it off of something then I have no ideas for a game.. Basically..

Also <.< >.> Why'd my game freeze up when I tried to open custom music in it? All it was was a dumb MP3... Or can it only open Midis?

If you want help, see if you can find the Student Teacher thingy. Since you probably won't get this stuff by reading tutorials, you're going to need stuff to spelled out for you.
Title: Re: Ten Questions... [RPGXP] [Mostly resolved]

Yeah, but I searched student teacher in the search thing. It came up with results that had nothing to do with it.

I'm blond, and I'm nowhere near as dumb as you.

And as for your questions, they've all been answered countless times before, if you can't even figure out the search feature you're pretty much fucked.  I would say don't take what we're saying to heart, but I'd be lying. ;o

Oh, and I don't even think the "student teacher thingy" is still active, though I could be wrong.

If I didn't click advanced search, it wouldn'tve given me any results or it would've given me results not even close to the search.
