I disagree with this Kiriashi, VX has better frame rate and higher resolution. Though 10fps shouldn't make that much of a difference, it does. So far in my research I have come across one valid argument. But this was rectified shortly after.
The argument is that the mapping system...well...in VX is terrible, they are right! but this is invalid, as there are many tile editors out there that support many many layers. Just simply export to a .png and add the clear walkable tiles, problem solved.
Also I have been digging around to find out why exactly XP scripting is better? Continued off my topic found here. what is the reason specifically? I see everyone here prefers XP and over on another forum they prefer VX. I am just trying to get to the bottom of this before I make my purchase, not so much the loss of money as it would be the loss of time in picking the wrong version.
