Gergoth 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2011 I've seen many ways on making online games using RMXP such as mnetplay but I have no luck i finding any links. Is it actually possible to make an MORPG using RMXP with a few other softwares? If so how? Links will be appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Broken Messiah 20 Report post Posted April 21, 2011 It is possible, check out RPG Maker XP Online, however I should say that I have seen dozens of would be online games die because of little popularity, diversity, and all the hard work that goes into such a endeavor. Also another piece of advice; dont use the RTP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 joman195 9 Report post Posted April 21, 2011 One that I had seen called Duality VX Online got almost to the Open Beta. But that's as far as most go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Broken Messiah 20 Report post Posted April 21, 2011 Duality is one example of a online game that has large potential, too bad its not publicly available Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 kellessdee 48 Report post Posted April 21, 2011 IMO I do not think the rpg maker xp is the correct platform for mmorpgs. To create/sustain a proper, good mmo one would need stable servers, frequent updates and a large enough player base. Plus you would probably want a non-turnbased battle system and a lot of other things that rmxp isn't *that* efficient with. In my mind, creating one's own engine, getting a proper server and what not would probably be the better bet for creating an mmo. Although, if you wish to create one through rmxp, then all the power to you and good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Broken Messiah 20 Report post Posted April 21, 2011 Of course you likely change the battle system to abs more than likely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 rgangsta 43 Report post Posted April 21, 2011 Broken is right. Most if not all online games for RPG Maker are ABS orientated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Gergoth 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2011 Is there a script where it changes the battle system so that the player doesn't so much as 'encounter' a monster and go into a battle scene but more of like being able to see the enemies and fighting them directly?

0 Gergoth 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2011 Wait...Nevermind, I'm using Mr. Mo's ABS system but I keep getting errors with the script such as: Script 'Mr. Mo's ABS V4.5' line 135: NameError occured. uninitialized constant Input::Letters I checked his demo and it worked perfectly fine but it doesn't seem to work when I implement the script into mine? Is there something I'm missing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Broken Messiah 20 Report post Posted April 22, 2011 Did you import all of the scripts in the right order? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 laansolo 3 Report post Posted April 22, 2011 Blizz ABS is better and easier to use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Gergoth 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2011 Oh yeah, it turns out it was the order that was the problem ^^ But when I try to test it it gives me: Unable to find Graphics/Pictures/mapback Am I missing something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 kellessdee 48 Report post Posted April 26, 2011 An error such as that would mean you are missing some kind of picture file called "mapback" that belongs in the Pictures folder...did the place you get the script from link to any image files you need? 1 Gergoth reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Gergoth 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2011 Ah! Thanks! I'm also wondering is Mr Mo's ABS Battle System compatible with Mode 7? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 kellessdee 48 Report post Posted April 26, 2011 Hmm, I don't see why it wouldn't be. Mind you I also haven't really looked at any mode 7 scripts so I don't exactly know how they work :/ but the best thing you can do is try it out! If it works, cool if not just take out mode 7 or maybe try another ABS? Although to me it seems like battling enemies in mode 7 maybe difficult..depending on how it is done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
