PPS. Remember that "EVENT OVERLAP" discussion? I got another letter:

hello i know japanese and i have japanese rpg maker 2000 and english the event over lap in japanese version says: No matter what other events cant step on this event! thank you

THavas

Ya know... he's right! For more info go to RPG Guru's FORUM.

20.12.2000: I want to introduce the best Japanese site with original RAW Materials for RM2k by MACK (and BLUE)

Original MACK's RAW Material (ChipSets,CharaSets,FaceSets,Etc) collection for RPG Maker 2000


(Translated by ELINGO from Japanese to English).


Read his Hiding hometown page of the dot graphic's secrets.
(You can convert all GIF files to PNG by MS Paint / ClipBoard / iDraw)

So... download all new origianl and professional chipSets / charaSets from his site! I do not put them to my site.

PS I'm working on including my fav MP3 songs into my FLASH menu 8-)

18.12.2000:

Today... is the.. dark day over whole the Russian Federation.
They start to show POKEMON ( 104 eps. ) on 1st Russian Channel "ORT".

Ya know!! When i drew PIKACHU chara... i did not know that it has STRIPES on its back!!! YAY!!!

I just found another mistranslation in the RM2k.

I meant "Clear Timer" event's command. It's equivalent of "vRemv" from RM95+. And it must be "Temporary deletion of event".

BTW... that command interrupts current event and erases it from a screen untill first TELEPORT command.

That fact is very useful!!! Now you can use your Switches & Variables more economly...

PS... There's another mistranslation... I'll tell you about it later.

PPS If you have that WHITE SCREEN problem still then try this method: Install correct driver for your Plug/n/Play monitor (.inf file). You can download such driver from your monitor's company site. Or ask it at your Computer store.

16.12.2000: There's some bug fixes from ... one japanese co. btw... they did not fix that "white screen" problem.

PS there's no update for English RM2k yet. ^_^

14.12.2000: I'm getting tons of e-mail. But... I noticed that some of you have got funky and stupid ISPs or mail hosts.
Such hosts as "<your name>@HOME.COM".

That STUPID ISP wont accept letters from my host "BMV@MAIL.RU".

And I'm tired to get back my letters which I sent to you!!!!
Those letters have little note from ISP:

"We do not accept letters from your host "MAIL.RU"

WHAT THE HECK!!!!!!? 8-((( Are they fear of Russian Hackers? That's the ravings of a madman.

DO NOT EVEN TRY TO SEND YOUR LETTERS FROM SUCH RACIST ISPs!!!

Get free email account at YAHOO.COM... and do not waste my time 8-)

PS I did adjust of my mail client to redirect any letter from ...@home.com to my TRASH folder immediatly.

Sorry Pals, but I hope that you got my point. ^_^
Now some of you realised why you did not get my answers to your letters.

13.12.2000: I got 2 intrasting letters about RM2k's EVENT OVERLAP:

Howdy, Don Miguel...

I don't know if you've found the solution to what the "event overlap" check-box in RM2k's event window does, but in case you hav'nt heres what I discovered...

If this box is checked no event can move through it. The hero is free to move through, no events, no matter if they're visible or not, or the level thir on (above, below, same level).

If an event moves into this blocking event it will act as if it walked into a blocking tile. This could pose some problems for creators using the catepilar system (having partymembers follow the hero), but can be cool if you want the hero to move in ereas you don't want NPCs to enter (i.e. If the NPC has "move toward hero" but you want to restict the erea the NPC moves in).

Hopes this is of help, and that I've not made a fool of myself by "rediscovering" something you already knew...

Gormash

I know what event overlap is. If that is enabled on both events, it means that both events can happen at the same time, it is mainly useful for activating an event from within an event that you arnt finished using yet,
but only is worth messing with if you want your timing to be absolutly perfect. (Im not sure if it was you, but whoever wrote the help file didnt know what it did)

Oh, nice work on the last RPG2k Update, it made it a LOT easier to understand, and I would like to know if you have anybody working on the name hero being translated, because that would add A LOT of element to many
games.
Brandon Ghislain

So... we have two opinions here... But which opinion is right? Let's discuss at my RPG Guru's forum!

Download latest English Translation of the Fighter Maker 95!

DO NOT ASK ME FOR SOME FILES FOR FM95 !!! Better ask people on my FM95 forum!

Do not forget to check Katalyst's site!

P.P.S. I have got over 6 new spiffy tutorials for RM2k right now... but I can't upload them still. Please, wait a li'l !

1.11.2000: I have got very beta version of the Fighter Maker 95. It was wrong when I tought that FM95's translation is a piece of cake. FM95 is very hard to use proggie... There's some text inside. It's main reason of its unplayability for now. It's easy to change default files... but almost impossible to create your own...

I gonna make "Nigga Fighters VS Satan" game. There's no way to use default GFX... 8-(((

What I translated in the CodeMason-GOSU-Katalyst's verson of the FM95:

  1. all non-translated context pop-up menus in the editor
  2. all untransated or missed text from dialogues
  3. 90% of error messages in the game runner module
  4. all redifinitions of the keyboard and joysticks
  5. content of the .INI files
  6. all gamedisk's compiling messages
  7. "GAME" (Story Mode)/ "MATCH" (Player 1 VS Player 2 mode) text menu
  8. and many many more...

I can't translate big phrases because of my broken vocab... V_V
Are there some cool free Japanese-English comuter translators? If you know some then tell me.

NOTE 1: I did this additional FM95's tranny for home use ONLY.
NOTE 2: FM95 is not available for downloading on my site.

P.S. My ISP's connection is bad now... so I can't upload anything big... Do not ask me for new version of FM95. I just created new forum about FM95. Check it on SUNNY Forum also. You may ask your FM95's questions there. Or e-mail your question to nitrogames@yahoo.com (it's e-mail of FM95's Translators: CodeMason, GOSU, Katalyst)

20.10.2000: Here was 600000th guest today! And it was my friend!

BTW: I reduced the flash menu's file size to 12 Kb!
