I remember watching these videos years ago when I was a kid and wanted to make games. I am now an adult, with a job and an apartment, yet I'm back here, after all these years Thank you
I just bought this software and let me tell you, I was so lost. I looked up some videos on what I'm supposed to do and so far you're the best at it. Thanks for the useful info!!!
You are so awesome. I had 0 clues on how to use this software, but you taught me how to use it. Honestly, you did a very good job of explaining everything.
Bro your awesome, best you-tube videos I've seen yet, my dopamine levels are surging right now from making a fully functional video game. It's almost unreal.
Your tutorials are the best. You explain everything simple and slow, and your voice doesn't make me want to smash my head repeatedly with a brick like most other tutorial vids I find.
Ive been planning on getting a computer for a while now and finally I'll have the chance to get one. I really love making games and I've been wanting to make one for Jacksepticeye (youtuber). RPG games are my favorites so i tried RPG maker on my sisters computer. I was soooooo lost! I couldn't understand any of the things that were happening on the screen. Watching your vids made me understand it a little bit better. I hope i can learn the basics till the time i buy a pc so i can straight off start working. Thank you! :)
Thanks a ton for these videos! I'm building a little quest game by following your tutorials and making my demo something playable to others! You're very helpful in getting me started, as I just started today and I already have a town to enter! Thanks again!
I cant even say how much this helped me, was completely stuck and couldn't make anything. Didn't know what half the stuff was. Thanks so much, subscribed.
*having trouble with G+* RPG maker, i downloaded the trial ones, but never really got around to using it. so are you a game "developer"? or planning to be one?
cool. same here. but the key to success is most likely to start with the small. like making something like "Mad father". a planning to make game like that, at a further point in time.
Okay, so funny. Watching this one because I saw in another video the town name pop up and I was like "How'd he do dat?!" Wasn't intending to actually watch this one, lol! And then while watching, I saw you build a tall wall (the third building) and that also answered a question I had! Because i was just "clicking" each square, and if you do that with some of the tiles, it doesn't work well (i.e. the third building has a baseboard on the bottom, that will show up in the middle of the wall if you just "click" the square). But...holding down the mouse button and dragging the tile will "stretch" it and keep the baseboard only on the bottom! Gah! Doh! and Lol! Got two things out of this video when I was expecting nothing! You just never know. Anyways, I'll take my prize for longest comment, lol! Take care!
I remember finding these videos back in middle school (and promptly ignored them cause I thought I knew what I was doing but I didn't and eventually gave up). So glad they're still here so I can watch them properly and know what I'm doing! I have a quick question about the roofs though: I want my player to be able to walk behind/under the roofs of the buildings while in town. Do you know a way to change the passability of the tile for that to work? Thanks!
I am crying, I'm trying to make kinda like a demo and this helped a lot, lIKE FBWEFHB Seriously, I got so happy when I can move my character from one place to another-
new to all this, your videos are great, and very helpfully! my son and I purchased the vx ace, how do you get your walls? I see you have a-b-c we only have the a-b?
+lisa polleys-howard , sorry I'm getting back to you so late. If you go into the database, you'll see a "tilesets" option. Go in there and you should see how to add different tabs.
Hello :D This is a great tutorial but I have 2 questions: 1)Is there any way to make the player enter only from the south side of the town and not from the sides? I mean, when he tries to approach the town tiles from the sides he should not be able to walk through them, but when he approaches from the south he should be able to normally walk in the town. 2)The town exiting event is not very realistic. If the player enters the town and moves immediately to the right or left he will exit, and in general, walking on the last set of tiles is not permitted because he will exit the town. Is there a way for us to set the map transfer event when he tries to exit the map or something? Thanks for the awesome tutorials :D
I am curious if there is a way to make the transition not require a button press. Currently I have to press enter to leave or enter town. I would rather have the player just naturally walk out.
I cannot use the tiles and paths at the top! My character WILL NOT walk on them unless I use the ground tiles on the bottom but then NO paths. The tiles at the top ARE set to O and NOT X
Hi dude, thanks a lot for these videos, i'm watching all of them. Sry in advance for my english, it's not my native language. I have a question : Imagines Eric enters in the town, and turns to the right or the left, Eric will leave Townville, even if he's not facing the "exit". Is there a way to correct this, or not ? I hope you can understand me x) thanks again for these tutos ! :D
Edyslo I'm not sure i understand your problem, but ill take a crack at it, You don't want "Eric" to leave the town unless he is facing a specific direction, there are a number of ways you can do this, In the "exit" event, simply put a conditional branch on the events which check for the direction of the character. (TAB 3 > Character : Player is Facing Down). if you place your exit teleport into that, it should stop him leaving unless he's facing the right direction. In if you have exits set up around your map, (all directions) edit the conditional for each. Hope that helps somewhat
So 1:30 when I drag to select multiple tiles, when I try to place it down it only does the top tile and not the bottom, but the white rectangle shows its still two tiles big. what do I doooo :(
I'm trying to make a game but there's one thing that I'm quite stuck on. See, my character's hometown gets burned down, but the game starts when the town is alright and safe. Is there a way to make it so that once certain events have been activated, the town will burn and stay that way?
Shoichi Kagame you can but you have to make a copy of the town and make it burn. edit the event on the world and make a new event page and add a switch to let the game know when to switch
i'm watching these 11 year old videos because VX just got released on steam for free, thank you for making these
Same, this guy just taught me how to make a town. xD
Haha same! So happy
me too lol

+Pitts Gaming , thanks for the kind words. Glad the videos are helpful to you!
I learned more here than in 2 weeks time on this grueling PDF I've been learning from. I wish more people made tutorials like this. Thanks a ton.
You are so awesome. I had 0 clues on how to use this software, but you taught me how to use it. Honestly, you did a very good job of explaining everything.
Enjoyed your first video Venthros and actually it wasn't too long it was better to be long and informative than short and not so.
Bro your awesome, best you-tube videos I've seen yet, my dopamine levels are surging right now from making a fully functional video game. It's almost unreal.
Your tutorials are the best. You explain everything simple and slow, and your voice doesn't make me want to smash my head repeatedly with a brick like most other tutorial vids I find.

*having trouble with G+*
RPG maker, i downloaded the trial ones, but never really got around to using it.
so are you a game "developer"? or planning to be one?
i'm planning to be one. the biggest problem i'm having is connecting large scale stories together.
cool. same here.
but the key to success is most likely to start with the small.
like making something like "Mad father".
a planning to make game like that, at a further point in time.
Dude you're a godsend, thank you so much.
Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad these videos are helpful!
im 11 and i bet when im older i would watch this video again and have fun like what im haveing now
I love you, Venthros.
Great, easy to follow tutorial. Thanks! :)

Seriously, I got so happy when I can move my character from one place to another-
That's awesome! Glad this video helped.
Wow...I thought I was the only person who named a town "Townville" :)
thanks man... this helped me alot!! xD
+Mogala TV You're welcome. Glad it helped!
It's been 8 years since this video. And you've gained another subscriber! :) Do you still monitor these videos? They are great!
Thank you for the kind words and for subscribing. I do monitor these occasionally. 😁
You make my life easy. I love you, sir. :p
Thanks man I'm learning a lot! :D

4:36 why did a C slot just pop up when you created Townsville? How do I get more tetures like that?

Thanks for the awesome tutorials :D
1) Just put the event on the path in front of the town.
2) The play will not go back to the map if you only have 1 exit.
10:44 idk it doesent let me go in to the town even though i did all the things needed
I am curious if there is a way to make the transition not require a button press.

Tutorial Completed.....
I like your accent btw
+Fredrick Ball Thank you very much.
Venthros is that a Pittsburgh accent I hear?
CRAZY FUNK JAZZ TOWN lol

Oh man, awesome, i'll test it, but i think it'll works, thx a lot dude !
How do you make an invisible barrier? I've been trying to find this out for so long but nobody has any tutorials
So 1:30 when I drag to select multiple tiles, when I try to place it down it only does the top tile and not the bottom, but the white rectangle shows its still two tiles big.
what do I doooo :(
I figured it out... I had to click the pencil tool and not have it on the rectangle tool
Anyone looking for a door, that will be in the next video btw.
I must say, l'm excited to get to learning how to make unique tile sets. RPG Maker has one of the ugliest tile sets l've ever seen, lol. Great video.
I tried making a town in RPGM MV but I just go back to the map. Why is that? I'm using the trail version btw. Please respond quickly.
Q u i c k l y
XD
where do you get the walls
I dont have a section C for my tiling, dos e anyone know if a reason for this?
Ummm plz help? Button c wont appear
I put the sounds to the maps, the waves, but do not know why, it plays even when i'm on other maps, can you give me a hand?
+InsanityPlays Press the stop button.
How do I make this town my starting town? As in, my character spawns there in the beginning of the game.
*****
in the event mode you can make an event, just right click and set starting psition> player
How do I get tab C with the walls? I only have A & B.
+BHD SHAYNE Make sure your map properties are set up to Exterior instead of World Map (might be named differently).
I'm trying to make a game but there's one thing that I'm quite stuck on. See, my character's hometown gets burned down, but the game starts when the town is alright and safe. Is there a way to make it so that once certain events have been activated, the town will burn and stay that way?
Shoichi Kagame you can but you have to make a copy of the town and make it burn. edit the event on the world and make a new event page and add a switch to let the game know when to switch
Awesome! Thank you so much!
i keep walking on buildings. How can I fix that?
so I'm guessing the only way to create a modern looking town not from the medieval times is by drawing yourself the titles, objects and sprites.
sofitssofi Google's your friend here. There are countless modern and futuristic resources available, including from the RPG Maker website.
thank you, that's very reassuring. I'll go on a search journey
Im on the free trial, so i can't do that much, but i can still do something
i need a tutorial on how to make a castle :/
What music software do you use?
I use Sonar on my main machine and Reaper on my laptop.
is it a full version your using??
Yes it is.
so how do i install new items? (like textures and buildings)
3:42
at 4:50 he has alot of different textures,idk where to find them like the different color roof tiles ETC. is there a download or something ?
there town is called townville
+ppg is my sisters Ha ha! Yeah, I watched them when I was younger.
city of townsville. they once moved to the town of cityville.
city of townsville. they once moved to the town of cityville.
city of townsville. they once moved to the town of cityville.
I have no C Tab?
You have to watch the video and make a new map. Then it changes
You have to select exterior when you make the new map, then three new and completely different tabs create themselves :).
Thanks for the tutorial, but holy fuck was it slow... 5min tutorial in 14...
I agree that this one was slow. Thanks for the feedback.
town 1 2 3 6 and 7 are so bad for a town
lel 14 mins to make a super small town with basically nothing in it - but sears though thanks for the info
This tutorial is really basic.
thats what he is going for
(gasp) then its not for you.
Hey, how to make event so, that everytime I enter Townville and turn right or left, it doesnt transfer me back to the field ?
cun8y I would change the entry coordinate to the town to be one above the exit coordinate
