I just downloaded a copy of RPG Maker 2000 (pc) and I'm trying to work this thing out so I can have a bit of a play-around and have some fun making some type of RPG.
Has anyone ever used this before and if so, is there any advice you could give me with this thing? I've gone through all of it's functions briefly and started playing around with the map editor but wouldn't mind any kind of info or tips I could getb to make things a bit easier.

Many thanks in advance! [img]smile.gif[/img]

That sounds fun, were did you get it... I'd like to try. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'll put some links below for you. It's actually not all that hard. I've spent a couple of hours on it now and although all I made was an inn and a couple of interacting characters, I can now say that I can progress a lot more quickly. Anyhow here are the links. You have to instal the first one which is the setup file and then the second which will give it all the files to make it work. I also included a link to a tutorial for it which is what taught me how to use it. If it wasn't for that I'd still be reading the help file.
Anyway Best of luck with it!!!

I changed the link for the Tutorial to the actual site as it doesn't seem to allow direct linking to download it.

If you need any help with the program I will be more than happy to help I have a bit of experience with it if you have any questions just
just E-mail me at Zombiechicken2001@yahoo.co.uk or you could leave a question on this forum but I might take sometime getting back to you if that is the case as I easily forget where I have been in the forum.

Ack this is really annoying, I downloaded those two links you gave me and the game works fine but the chipset graphics on the side dont show up. So I had to import a chipset in my database but cant find the original one Im supposed to use. Bokken can you check which chipset is the default one on your game?

If you like making your own RPG, also try our freeware RPG maker called "Dungeon Craft". It looks like the old goldbox games, but with todays technology (High res, avi, mp3 support, and tons more.. it's 80% complete, and you can download the editor and tons of art for making your OWN game at:

Let me know what you think!

Azurewolf if I am entirely correct the original chipset that opened up was "basis". Just click F8 and change it under "Select Chipset Graphic". I've been woking with "bof" up to now but it seems that I can only work with one only which doesn't seem right. I was pretty sure I could use more than one chipset to make a game and if I'm wrong it will be a bit of a let down. I think I'll be contacting Daniel about this one and getting some advice from him.
