Video: Youtube

Tested on operating systems:
  • Windows 8/8.1
  • Windows 10


If there is a virus alert or any problem, please don't run the program, take a screenshot of the error, delete the program and let me know here.


Tutorial
You should put this program inside your game folder, and instead of starting RPG_RT.exe, you should start Game.exe.
You can change the program name to the title of your game.

Through this program the game will run in windowed mode with a resolution of 640x480 and you cannot switch to full screen with F4 or 320x240 with the F5 key.

As funções são habilitadas editando o arquivo RPG_RT.ini.


Enable Function-Keys​

Enable F4 Key (Toggle fullscreen/windowed):
F4Enabled=1


Enable F5 Key (Window size 1x/2x):
F5Enabled=1


Enable F12 Key (Restart Game/Goto TitleScreen):
F12Enabled=1



Fullscreen Mode
To enable full screen, if you want the player to never switch to windowed mode, just include this in the RPG_RT.ini:
Fullscreen=1



Dynamic Change Icon
The Game.exe will dynamically replace the icon in the window and taskbar without affecting RPG_RT.exe. If you prefer to place a custom icon, just copy your own icon into the game folder and rename it to RPG_RT.ico.

If you prefer the game to have the default icon:
Icondefault=1



Splash Image
To make a splash image appear before starting the game place a PNG format image in the folder and rename it Splash.png. The image doesn't need to be transparent, just include the #000 color in all the points that the executable itself will make transparent.

I intended to update this system to allow the player to capture the game's screen, I'm already studying and testing some methods, I just need to know the opinion.
Given this I intend to create a version for games made in Rm2k3 as well.
New update coming soon:

Next step in development:
- A method that take a screenshot for each save sl
- Move to "Picture" folder to be used in game with event comma
- Work with games made in Rm2k3 (Steam version)
- Resolution set at startup with all options: Window 1x; Window 2x; fullscreen
  • F4, F5 and F12 Key Blocker
  • External command sender (controlled)
  • More accurate window size checking (320/640/Fullscreen)
