BEN_RANDOM'S PROFILE

1019
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.

So what's in V4
So we all know that RMN 4 losers is coming out, but what is coming with it? Many topics are being started about different specifics, but since I'm far to lazy to look through all the individual threads, couldn't somebody (Kentona) make an announcement topic stating what's officially planed for RMN 4?
What can you do with squares? (VX RTP Mapping Contest)
People often accurately complain about the RPGVX Run Time Package Chipset.
I wonder what we could do with it if we all tried our hardest.

Theme
The theme of this contest is to make an inn, shop, pub, or house of some sort. This does not necessarily mean the map must be an indoor map. Be creative, maybe you can have a hobo's homestead outside!

Reviewing SMBX Games
I've recently been reviewing SMBX games. I have so far reviewed Mario Vs. the Moon Base, Super RMN Bros., Super Desmo Bros., and Super Puzzle World.
Want me to review your SMBX game? (or any SMBX game for that matter)
If you do, post here and I'll take a look. No promises though. I can't guarantee that I will review it.
My que is empty, considering the only game in it is not yet released.
1. Super Doki Doki World
2. Empty

Locker Folders
I brought this up before... but...
Wouldn't it be great if we could organize our lockers? Mine is so messy, it takes me a long time just to find anything!

Need Box Art?
Is anyone looking for some box art for there game? I'm no photo-shop master,but my image editing skills aren't dreadful to say the least.
If you want a look at some things that I've done, look at the box art for my game, PacRalph:
Or, here's something SMBX Style, the box art for Super RMN Brothers 2:
Currently the engines that I work with so far are,
RPG Maker 2000
RPG Maker 2003
RPG Maker XP
RPG Maker VX
Game Maker
Super Mario Brothers X.
Here is a list of engines that I am hoping to work with in the future:
-RPG Maker 20XX Engine
-RenPy
Here is a list of things I need to know to make you're box art.
-Images you want on the box. (ex. A game logo)
-The Engine the game is running in.
-Anything else you can think of.
CREDIT
Credit is appreciated, but if you really don't want to give me credit, I understand. Just don't claim as your own.

Show Full Map Script
I was wondering if there's a script out there that will show an entire map at on time in gameplay, rather than just showing the area around the player.
If someone could write and RGSS2 script that would do this, I would be very pleased.

SMBX Name
I have created a game for SMBX. It contains a world map and levels that are properly named. These are placed in a folder with the named my games name. This folder is in C:/SMBX/worlds folder. When I open up SMBX and hit "play game", and the game selection screen appears, there is a blank spot that I can select, along with the names of all the other games I have downloaded. If I select the blank spot, and hit enter, it opens my game with no bugs.
The question is, how do I get the name of my game to appear in that blank spot?

music wanted
(this is being typed on the iPad, excuse any grammaticarlific mistakegas.)
I am going to implement a music selection choice into my game.
I would like music tracks that YOU want to listen to.
The player will get to choose what music to have playing in the level selection area, the bonus areas, the save area, and the shop.
The music should be clean, preferably no lyrics at all though.
It also needs to be legal, I don't want to be sued.
I will give any and all due credit to the creator and the provider of the music.
I also am not willing to pay. (sorry). Royalty free please.

PIctures to Tiles
Is there any efficient method of turning pictures into tiles for RMVX?
Possibly a software or something?
