BEN_RANDOM'S PROFILE

I'm Ben_Random. I've been around since 2008 but I didn't really get active here since Super RMN Bros. 2. That, an unfinished game, and a couple of contests sums up what I've done with game making on this site. I find that my main purpose here is writing. I have a few tutorials out there, as well as some reviews on Mario fan games such as RMN Bros. or Mario V.S. the Moon Base.

Now with the internet the way it is these days, you can probably use just this information to stalk me.

CSS'ing your RMN Game Profile

Freelance writer aside, here is a snippet for changing the color of that "Description" word in your game page:

div.frame h3 {
color: #000000;
font-size: 16px;
margin: 0;
padding: 2px 16px;
}

This is my third tutorial in VX for Dummies. Does anyone like the series? Should I keep going?
I was going to say 'yes' yesterday. But today....

I know.

This week in blogs Week #8 2011

Well that's the community's fault for only having like 1 article a month!

I suppose so. Sigh.

I've got an article in pending though! It's the latest edition to the series, VX FOR DUMMIES

I don't frequent the site as much as I used to so this is the perfect way for me to see what's been going on, in blogs at least. Good work! I look forward to the next one.

What about doing "this week in RMN" and expand your reach a bit? You already have a piece about Release Announcements(even though it's probably just from blogs). Just include a few things from other sections that catches a lot of attention, like quality screens or any forum "hot topics" lol Just a thought.

Also, if this becomes a regular thing, it would end up "taking over" the Articles and Tutorials feed. Not that it's a huge deal, again, it's just a thought .


True. Maybe there should be second section called "Site Stats" or something. This isn't really an article.

No. I'm counting from the weeks of the year. Week two would be some time in early January.


Oh.
Than say Week #8 of 2011.

It makes more sense to us American bastards.

I like that your reviewing games outside the site, F-G. Helps to broaden the site's horizons some.


Agreed.

Sigh. This is probably another one of those jokes that I don't get. Sigh...

VX for Dummies: The Event Screen

author=Versalia
How about:

A page is just an alternative set of coding (or even alternative graphics) for the same event. This page can be dependent on switches (a value that is "OFF" or "ON"), variables (a number value), or the existence of particular items or other events.

For example:
You have an event that is a Princess. "Help me," she says, "I lost my necklace." Now technically, this item doesn't "exist" yet because the player doesn't have it.

You make a new page, and you check the box Item: (Princess' Necklace) exists. It says "Thank you so much for finding my necklace!"

Now, whenever you talk to her while you have the necklace, she will say "Thank you so much for finding my necklace!" If you don't have it, she will say "Help me, I lost my necklace."


Note that this same series of events can be done in a single page with the Conditional Branch tool, but it is possible to do it across multiple pages, and you should be able to think of more creative uses based on this example.


Copying. (Will give credit.) You are awesome.
