==========================

How to distribute your game to people who don't have RMXP:

RTP = Runtime Package (They are the default resources, like audio and graphics)

The RTP are in the Program Files, where you installed RPG Maker.

if it's postality version, by default, it's in:

c:\games\RPG Maker XP - Postality Knights Edition ENHANCED

If it's dynaemu, it should be in:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Enterbrain\RGSS

You can distribute your game without the RTP, all you need to do is be sure that every resources you used from the RTP are in fact in your game folders. Then, in the RTP selection, you choose NONE everywhere. And save your game. Then, you can distribute the game to people who don't have RMXP.

Be sure to distribute the file RGSS100J.dll that is in c:\windows\system32 (in Win XP), and tell people to put that file in there. Then, it gonna work fines.

If you have your game, and it's using a tileset from the RTP, you simply have to go in the RTP directory on your Hard Drive, copy it, then paste it in your graphics\tileset directory of your game folder. (You do not need to import it !).

Don't change its name, RMXP will automatically look in your game folder as a priority, so if they have the same name, you dont even have to edit your game; RMXP will start using your game folder's files first. (Meaning that you won't have to go in an event and change the character associated with the event, since RMXP look in your game folder as a priority.)

If you look at the TileSet list (or any other resources list) in the database, or by doing an event, you'll see a little circle at the left of every resources names. When it's red, it's your resources, in your game folder. They show first. When it's blue, it's from the RTP. You must use only resources from the red circles list.

 Remember, just copy/paste directly from folders to folders, and you dont have to use the import utility of RMXP.

 Chnage the settings to NO RTP, and distribute the DLL.

 Test play your game completely; each time you get an error like "001-Storm.png" cannot be found or someting like that, it simply means you forgot to copy that one files. So go in the RTP folders, copy it, paste it in your game folder, in the relevant directory, and continue testing. Be sure your resources are all copied.

If you are lazy, and don't care about sizes, you can also do the following:

- Copy the entire RTP into your game folders, and that's it.

- Distribute the RTP Setup file with your game, and tell people to install it if it's not yet installed.

*The last 2 method aren't very good, since your game is gonna be too big for no reason. But it's your game after all.

You can from the main screen of the forum type in the search bar "without RTP" and then some magical internet Smurf's jump about in your PC and give a whole load of nice links and threads on what you searched for... Or do as you did and some guy without nothing better to do will do it for you... 

I just hope one day YOU will be that person... doing the same as I just did for a New RMRK Member LOL
