What resources would you like to see more of?

Please vote for what you'd like to see more of in the resource section. If you select other for any of the options, please specify what you'd like to see in this thread.

As far as graphics/other and tiles/other go, I'd love to see more tutorials. What I currently have hasn't been enough to really help me make things, whiiiich is probably a result of me being unartistic rather than the tutorials being insufficient, but not certainly.

Good point! B) What about event systems? Come to think of it, I might add a couple o' them...

More tiles are always good! And scripts are fun too, but I personally can't think of too many ideas that haven't been scripted 2 oe 3 times already...

I actually posted a little about this briefly in the script ideas thread. So, I think that explanation will answer what I mean by "other" options here.

TILESETS

The creation of games lies in the framework, without tiles it is nothing. I truly feel that with a complete, custom tileset, even a lazy bum such as myself can create a game in full, all you need then are the characters, some fringe resources, and your keyboard.

As silly as it sounds, I'd like to see more professional sprites. It's seems hard to find good new sprites some days, at least that aren't just edits of existing resources out there. How many of us have made games using actual custom sprites that weren't either made from a generator or kinda choppy looking around the edges?

I'm not too sure actually.
When you think about it, you can find music and graphic assets on non-RPG Maker sites and they will work absolutely fine; but scripting is something that needs to be done specifically for RPG Maker for it to work (you can't just write something in Python/C++/Java and expect it to work. You cannot even write anything beyond basic ruby and expect it to work as a system in RPG Maker. You MUST know how to script in the engine, no other way about it). Which thus means, it's possibly the most unique resource you can find on these RPG Maker Related Websites (RMRK).

With that said, personally I'd prefer to see a ramp up in graphic assets. More specifically on some custom tilesets (keep in mind that DLC tilesets have earned money, if that's a better incentive for you) and battler sprites. I'd like to see more humans in battle. Ones that don't look/feel as a generic enemy like a thief/soldier; how about a villager? A human holding a boomerang? A human equipped with a saxophone?
Man, the amount of combinations of facework, clothing and equipment you can come up with is amazing.

I recall a large number of RMRK regulars being glorious musicians. Some of the tunes I heard whilst in the irc at some point were absolutely great. There's no reason why you guys couldn't simply release some of your tracks and provide new RM games with your great audio concoction.


What do I want to see more of...? Well... everything. And I know it's all possible by what I've encountered here over my time.

We have enough medieval tiles as is, why is that the most voted option? I'd like to see giant trees, giant beanstalks, theme parks and outback tilesets.

There's lots of giant trees if you look around :p

Any tileset that meshes well with the RTP is okay with me! As long as it's not futuristic (I mean I wouldn't mind, but it wouldn't be very useful to me at the moment).

Planning on sharing some custom sprites soon.

Are there any new scripts people would like to see? Preferably nothing too hard (so that I can actually attempt it).

I'm gonna swoop in for no reason & coincidence, sorry If I come off perhaps rude to some people;


Regarding resources; for which maker are we exactly speaking of? Or Engine? I'm confuse, is It RMXP, Or is it RMVX (Ace) that we're talking about?

TILESETS

I'm a bit lost on that 'framework' your speaking of on tilesets, your saying custom & exclusive tilesets made by an artist? I agree that even a custom and new tileset would excite a person to make a map, but if their lazy in the first place, I don't think even a custom made can motive one to do so in the first place if they didn't try with what they have before, It's just how I've seen it, but I don't know you so, maybe it'll make you do a full one.

As silly as it sounds, I'd like to see more professional sprites. It's seems hard to find good new sprites some days, at least that aren't just edits of existing resources out there.

Define professional, professional sprites as in ones you rip from another game? That's kinda what I get from your suggestion, but I feel you mean Sprites made by people that are custom made & look professional.

How many of us have made games using actual custom sprites that weren't either made from a generator or kinda choppy looking around the edges?

Most of us I guess (Myself included)? Does that also include sprites done by other spriters that share these? But I get what you mean, new sprites are always fun to play with after all.

With that said, personally I'd prefer to see a ramp up in graphic assets. More specifically on some custom tilesets (keep in mind that DLC tilesets have earned money, if that's a better incentive for you) and battler sprites. I'd like to see more humans in battle.

Making custom Tilesets (or Any Medium of Art) for Money only is never good, it's boring, and there's no motivation on doing it, To make it it takes passion and loving on doing it, even thou sometimes one does things than one doesn't enjoy making, but making sprites can get tiring, and usually all amounts of 'possibilities & combinations and Ideas' that come flowing at your head that sound fun, don't sound that fun at all to someone working on it, Suggestions are good, but sometimes, it's simpler to sprite a thief than a guy throwing a boomerang, and it takes dedication for it.

Your view versus the voted option speaks otherwise thou, and Giant Trees & Beanstalks fall also around the Medieval theme.

Any tileset that meshes well with the RTP is okay with me! As long as it's not futuristic (I mean I wouldn't mind, but it wouldn't be very useful to me at the moment).

Not to step on your boots, but the Artist wouldn't care if you minded or didn't use it at all if you didn't ask for it in the first place. :/

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm curious, you guys speak of Custom Tilesets, Sprites And Graphics, Aside from knowing Yuyubabe & Dr.Mc, and pardon if I don't check much this side of the Forums, but who are the other Spriters In here in RMRK, that, for what I understand from this, would be willing to Sprite & make these Graphic Resources to share? Who are these Regulars that I've somehow missed?

I'm sorry if I'm coming of as insensitive and I dunno, whatever you find that angers you, but I ask and reply because I'm simply, curious and worried about it.

Obviously the artist wouldn't give two shits if a single person didn't want or use their resources, this is a resource SUGGESTION though. And I was just SUGGESTING that non-futuristic tile sets be made over futuristic ones. I wasn't trying to say that any artist should care really, it was simply a suggestion that RTP styled tile sets be made as resources in the future.

I'm guessing you weren't trying to be rude, so I'm not going to take it that way. And if what I said seems rude, it's not, I'm just trying to explain what I meant.

Also, this is me asking for it, in the first place...

Allow me to tell you where I think your wrong,
This is my problem:

Any tileset that meshes well with the RTP is okay with me! As long as it's not futuristic (I mean I wouldn't mind, but it wouldn't be very useful to me at the moment).

The bold parts
This doesn't sound to me like a Suggestion, rather more like your own opinion and what you want.
which you said just now:

Also, this is me asking for it, in the first place...

I'm guessing you weren't trying to be rude, so I'm not going to take it that way. And if what I said seems rude, it's not, I'm just trying to explain what I meant.

No, I wasn't, like I said at the beginning of my post & at the end of it. I thought you took it personally from your first sentence thou.

I actually kind of like making RTP-style tileset *edits* ;_; I'm not good enough to sprite from scratch, but sometimes it's fun to throw stuff together. I have some stuff lying around that I'm going to contribute really soon, too! :-)

I meant it in more of a "this is what I would like to see" kinda way, I'm not telling anyone what to do, that's up to them, just offering what I would like as a suggestion.
I guess saying that it was a request wasn't exactly correct either, as I'm not requesting it, but suggesting it :p

When I say "Anything that meshes well with the RTP is okay with me!" I really mean, "I would like to see more tile sets, but in RTP style too".

I see how what I said could be confusing. Shit, I'm kinda confused at this point.

Moral of the story/tl;dr version: *My suggestion is that an RTP styled tileset be made, I would prefer it not to be futuristic, but that is up to the artist, I'm simply throwing out ideas.

It's the exact same for scripting. The tileset suggestion was more because it is a resource that can truly stand out on a forum; although to be fair I don't believe I've seen any regular here make any sort of tileset before. That doesn't mean no one here can do so, just that it has not yet happened as far as my knowledge is concerned. So it's still a valid point, even if only ambiguous.

I know Acolyte to be a very great artist, along with Yuyu and Dr. MC. Even Gracie is fully capable (where is she? ). Any of which can do amazing graphical works.
I won't pretend that I know how difficult it is for content creators to do those things. Which is why I only suggested more humans as battlers. Maybe it's not so fun for people around here to draw humans over monsters. But in the end I can only mention what I would like to see more of. Just as users around here are freely sharing what they want to see in the scripting section.

wait

isn't this a suggestion thread

what's going on

should people not suggest things

is the world ending

why is operation: fix rmrk only resulting in weirdness

is it my birthday yet


*also I was thinking about contributing tileset edits because they're kinda fun

I didn't really see anything wrong with anything in this thread.

Is there something I'm not seeing that is wrong with this thread?

Don't make me get my gavel. :anski2:

*also I was thinking about contributing tileset edits because they're kinda fun

Do it!!!

And yeah, I'm confused too, I don't know what's happening, but I'm just confused about everything tonight, I need sleep.
