2023 Gaming Diary

I have beaten Sunset Overdrive don't think I had it on my list but I played through 80% of it on my first go and it's one of the better movement+combat games I've played ever. It's what I wanted Jet Set Radio to be, the big skill issue you have to get over is the CRINGE writing. Though I think the most to get out of the game is by doing all the side challenges since the campaign story doesn't really push you to the limit due to power scaling.

I want to get back into Code Vein, since that seems near completion. Maybe FF7 Remake considering a sequel's coming.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 is also sort on the docket. Though jesus is that game confusing to come back to considering how the game is mapped out, not even guides are helpful due to being able to do things out of order SM64 style. They really fucking 180'd to the feedback of 13 having too many hallways, though in some cases this is just a lot of backtrackable hallways you pick and choose.

congrats we've quadrupled the amount from the last event

[RM2K3] [RM2K] RPG Maker's...environment???

rpgmaker 2k/3 was probably made in C/C++ or some such variant, looking at the map files or exe won't help you since it's been compiled. Everything done to modify the programs is via reverse engineering so I think DynRPG is C++ just because it's much lower level to accomplish that. There's no source code available so it's like trying to modify a lock without the key so to speak. And the maps just use a custom data type set by the programmers to read out information. the maps aren't code just stuff to read off of that a computer/engine can more efficiently use.

A.I. Generation and RMN

no one reads the thread because the exact same arguments keep cropping like everyone got amnesia, or because no one likes discussion or reading

[RM2K3] [RM2K] Liability. :o

Always admit where you got resources from, especially in the readme for credits. If being honest means putting up evidence of your copyright violation on a commercial game well... that's where the principle breaks down.

There's places like https://freemusicarchive.org if you're desperate for music and sounds. It's hard to find music that's both of allowed commercial use and good/fitting, but you'd be surprised what you can find. Also it's really not that hard to find a musician, I get DMs CONSTANTLY begging to do pro bono music for a project they may not have even played just to get their foot in the door. Ripped music can also be useful for providing reference for them especially if you got a game already done and showing exactly what the ingame areas should sound like.

Best RM series to play all the way through?

Does anyone remember GamingGroundZero? (Remembering GamingGroundZero)

@DarkMatter: Dang I remember trying to make a lot of games using your charsets. They were a pretty good template and inspirational for 12 year old lurker me at the time.

These charsets are still in the butterfly's song demo and i think there was a CBS demo with similar charsets? Pelican50 something



idk if it's ok to post them here but I get extremely nostalgic when i see these. GGZ had a really solid sprite art community.

Does anyone like me?

you are def the most liked community member, by my memory every clique that came through here would be like "yeah rmn has some annoying people but kentona's cool" no joke
