20XX Irc: irc.esper.net #20xx
Installation: Delete RPG_RT.exe and paste this program where it used to be. There you go.
Introduction
To address the old-age and technology of RPG Maker 2003's RPG Runtime engine, a replacement will be written that implements more modern features. This is intended to work both as a 1-1 replacement for the RPG_RT.exe executable and as an extender to allow features which would be cumbersome to implement conventionally as event scripts.
There are also a long string of bugs and feature requests that will be addressed with this engine, especially the more commonly known battle bugs and speed/agility problems.
This is not a patch, it is a ground-up open-source engine that plays RPG Maker 2k/3 games. There are others out there, but usually for systems like the GP32X, PSP, and DS so that you could play RPG Maker 2003 games on those systems.
This technology enables you to create something new with something old, comfortable, and most importantly, fun. The G.E.C.K. for example, still sports that Win95 look but uses the next-gen engine you actually play. After all, it's this engine that your users will actually see and not your tools.
Participants
Thanks to the following people who submitted games for me to test against:
Kentona (Hero's Realm)
Drakonais (Tiamat Sacrament)
J-Man (Phantasia 5)
Ocean (Paradise Blue)
These participants will decide the engine's current level of compatibility with the original system.
Features
Features that 20XX will extend onto your project:
- Fixes the hit list of bugs and annoyances with the original engine
- Many more supported image and sound/music formats
- 32 bit color with alpha images
- Bitmapped fonts let you draw your own font pixel-to-pixel (also 32-bit alpha possible)
Tell me what you want and I'll implement them depending on how annoying/frequent you are at asking for them.

CloseI'm completely certain I'm doing something wrong, but this crashes every time I try to use it. My system isn't giving me any specifics; it just tells me "WolfCoder's RPG RM20XX Engine has stopped working".
I was supposed to just extract the stuff into the games' folder, right?

Yes, it does this for some games now and this is a new issue. If you send me a ZIP of your game using e-mail or something, I can fix this error.

Oh, hello. First, I would like to congratulate the work to improve the RPG Maker 2K / 3. There are a lot of people who still prefer to use these engines, and it's really nice to see that there are tools like this that make it possible to break the limitations.
So, I can still make suggestions here? One of the first things I would suggest (although I do not know if this is possible) is a major support for use charsets. There is a patch made by Cherry that enables the use of charsets with bigger sizes, but is not very intuitive and contains some problems. Being able to use charsets in higher dimensions would be great.
I would also suggest new functions to graph facesets, something like:
(N°) Faceset Draw (ID,X, Y, N, ) - Where ID follows the same explanation for the "Draw Image" in Faceset folder, X and Y are the positions and N is the face number on the Faceset (from 1 to 16).
I would suggest also a command to draw Charsets (which would be useful in customized menus for example), but as the number of parameters is limited to 4 probably would not have as much control as well (In addition to the ID, X and Y coordinates and the character ID on the Charset, there must be a parameter to control the direction frame and possibly a option to draw it with walk animation). So this idea could be discarded.
These are some humble suggestions. Forgive me for possible mistakes in grammar, I do not speak English fluently. I hope that the project remains alive and continues to improve, see ya!

O.K., mine isn't working, can you please make a tutorial/video on how to set it up...because I'm doing what the adobereader says...and it isn't working...
Unable to test play due to a fatal error in Project Compilation.
How ya gonna fix/not do jackshit about THAT one Wolfy?
How ya gonna fix/
PROJECT HAS MOVED:

Wolfcoder doesn't live here anymore. We keep getting his mail, though :/

Is anyone still in contact/get in contact with WC to check on the status of this thing? As far as it goes, it seems as if 'this project was moved' equals 'expect no more updates, because updates were almost daily here, but I haven't heard of any technical updates or anything from MD or DreamInCode.
I was hesitant about the project being moved because I speculated that I wouldn't hear about it again, and welp, that's what happened. I am almost sure that WC is still working on this, but it would be nice to get updates.

It was updated pretty recently with a bug fix on Begin Jump events and having a picture remain even on the game over screen. But other than that, I don't think too much work was done on RM20XX itself lately so that's why there weren't as much updates. Still, if anyone has bugs to report from trying out RM20XX, feel free to send them to WC on the other sites I guess or on the bug channel (I think there's one, not sure if it's still there).
On another note, Rubi is playable from start to finish on it now.

I definitely respect whatever WC's decisions are as well as the frequency of updates in terms of working on this and ultimately getting off the ground (I hope!). It's just frustrating not being able to have a solid, reliable spot to get updates on the project. It goes without saying that a lot of people are looking forward to this and even more people are following the progress on this.
It sucks to see the solid foundation for the project scatter to the four winds, and it has yet to see a comparable replacement.

duh, I know that, I got three, but now I'm stuck, I'm on the bridge there's a boss aheasd and I only have 2 potions, also no clue about the puzzle with the 5 snowmen etc etc, anybody HELP!!
Looked it up, it is a bit all over the place, last article : 9/28, not so bad... Maybe she's more focused on Americana Dawn, beautiful, very complete site on the game with last post dating from today, here :http://thelonggoodbye.bitbonton.com/, don't know how many people have seen this.

So I've talked to WolfCoder recently...
And the project still continues on. One of the things he mentioned is that too many people are looking forward to the project and yet not enough people are actually testing the project and trying to do things with it. The best and fastest way to get this project off the ground is to actually download it and mess around with it; try to do stuff with it and play around with its features, and list out the bugs and what you find to WC.
I am obviously not in a position to speak too much on his behalf or whatever, but that's pretty much the word. My only problem, and I'm sure I'm not alone on this, is exactly how to use RM20XX's features. A lot of the instructions on utilizing its features and possibilities seem like mumbo-jumbo to me. Perhaps we can put our minds together and figure this out between all of us?
