Tired of using the same VX RTP as everyone else in your games? Do you not want to use game rips in your project, but have a hard time finding decent original resources for your projects? You are not alone! Not all of us are artists, and the internet is a big places, filled with content of dubious quality, and it can be hard to find what you're looking for, especially since a great deal of RPG Maker resources are found on Japanese sites, which can be hard to navigate. The community asks for your help in making it easier to find resources!

Please provide any information you can about the resources that are scattered across the internet. It is our intention to compile a list of where to find these resources so that everyone can make use of them.

-Find a link to your favorite original resources (not game rips.) Post it here! It could be anything from artwork to music or anything else related to game-making.

-Provide as much information as you can about the material: The web address, who made it, what platform it is for (2k3, XP, VX), what the materials are (tiles, charsets, monsters, music, etc.} and what licenses you may use the materials under (commercial, non-commercial ,etc.)

-If you have made material yourself that you have allowed for free use by anyone, feel free to post about it here.

PLEASE DO NOT GET INTO AN ARGUMENT ABOUT THE VIRTUES OF USING RIPS ON THIS THREAD. THAT IS NOT WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT HERE.

Well, I use Google Chrome which features an auto-translator, which works out pretty well. I don't get my resources from english sites, and I don't like using rips.
What I do use is resources from Japanese and Portugese websites.
I will provide some links in a moment.

Those are some for example.
Charset Generators, they use some pretty good rtp edits.

I tend to use Jamendo and Freesound for music and sound effects.

Occasionally I also tend to take some images off the Flickr Creative Commons library. Often only taking the stuff I only need to do Attribution on. Of course I edit the stuff heavily. But some things can be used for facesets and whatnot.

And for fonts I go to dafont.com. Carefully checking what the licenses are before using any font.
SOUNDDOGS for sound effects.

They have EVERYTHING.

this thread, it good.

i hope people will make with the givey, so to speak.

I was going to suggest sounddogs (everything on there is free but I DON'T THINK THEY KNOW THAT so shh! don't tell them) but caluniofoot beat me to it
I saw this mentioned in another thread:

VX,XP,2K, and 2K3.
-Has some sweet RTP style charsets for 2K3 and some cool futuristic and world map tiles as well. Weapon graphics too.
-Some tiles for XP.
-Slick futuristic tiles for VX as well, but they don't blend with the RTP.
There's a few recolored chars for VX and then there's the motherlode:
All of the 2k3 and XP RTP characters chibified for use in VX.
Fine for non commercial use, as far as I can tell. Site is Japanese, btw.
Charasgenerator site. That's all I have to say, excluding character maker 1999.

Spriter's resource features rips so it doesn't count.
Lost Garden (http://lunar.lostgarden.com/) gives away free assets but they're pretty highres

Some rips, some originals, some edits, some...doesn't work.

Give it a shot yourself, I personally just want to keep the list alive for future uses.

About half of the 20 or 30 links I clicked from that list were sadly dead.
I use this site for my music. You'll need to edit them if you want to make them loop, so you'll need Audacity as well. :D
Newgrounds for Game Remixes
This and this one is all I need. Mostly the second, since normally graphical stuff is "self-made" (random tests and normal stuff).
Also, the ModArchive. One can get some good stuff from there. Really good stuff. OBVIOUSLY, these are .mod/it/xm, so you need a proper converter (or the Fmod ExAudio Script for RMXP, or DisharmonyPatch in RM2k/3).
And! FreeSound. With a little treatment, you get good (and free) sounds.

What I look mostly are sound-related resources,

I used to use Ultima Island and Phanxgames but now I make most of my resources. Better that way.
Hi! I don't know if you are counting music as a resource here . . . but I thought I would just post here. I am a musician and it would be awesome if you wanted to contact me. Here is an example of one of my songs:



So please email me at: benbabylonmusic@aol.com and I will write ORIGINAL songs FOR YOU at a SMALL fee (:

I take resources from the following:

1.My own work (done with a char generator or windows paint)
2.someones else's work (I use this sparingly)
