[RM2K3] Custom Chipsets and Battle Backgrounds

Hey guys, I'm looking for someone with experience making their own chipsets for RM2K3. A few things I'd like are a brand new forest, a crypt, a futuristic city, and the inside of a futuristic building..

As for the battle backgrounds I would be looking for a forest, desert, swamp (in water), and the interior of various locations.. more info will be provided if there's any interest here.

Obv this is paid work also.

High Level Enemies & Balancing.. Thoughts?

I really admire games that allow a player to get to high levels as I'm finding it increasingly difficult and time consuming to make normie/boss fights challenging or interesting in the later stages of my own game. Sometimes I spend hours making 'switch scripts' or trying to come up with something special an enemy can surprise the player with which in turn makes future battles even more time consuming to make as you feel a constant urge to 'top the last one'.

I'm wondering what some of your tricks are for making interesting/challening/cool battles in the latter stages of your games?

What would you say your absolute favorite boss fight in your own game is? Maybe a cool gimmick the boss(or enemy) did that you just knew a player would go "oh shit!" Or just a neat battle event you were really proud of doing?

One of mine in RPG Maker 2003 was when an 'honorable' character faced ends up desecrating their fallen ally's bodies mid-battle by reviving them as wraiths which force the player to change their tactics to face ghost type enemies which cannot be targeted without removing their ethereal status first..

I would love to hear what some of your own favorites are.

Tar-sama's ART COMMISSIONS

Thanks for the work man! And to anyone wondering Tar-Sama was quick to figure out the conversions for having images work in Rpg Maker 2003 with no trouble at all. I look forward to working with them again!

Smash Bros 5th Fighter

I don't care much for another Fire Emblem character but I'm glad its not one of the lame choices that many people are constantly asking for. Like I'll try to be happy for fans if they do get one of their favorites in there but I'm tired of people all just asking for the same characters over and over again.
Sorry if that's mean but some of the most popular picks right now are just awful in my opinion. But moreso I'm just annoyed by seeing videos where people pick the same characters everyone else chooses. For the love of pancakes be original with your choices for Smash.


There are some pretty good picks out there. Personally i did NOT want to see Dante but literally anything would have been better than Byleth. I would have even taken the Unnamed Goose even! Lol

I'm glad for it. We were lacking in women for the current DLC group, and Byleth's attacks are very versatile for various playstyles. Also, it's deserved. 3 Houses is SUCH A GOOD GAME - like, definitely my game of last year. It's just so good that it deserved to have representation in Smash.


Lol Come on, femme byleth is just a pallete swap of the male and vice versa. You really cant think of any other female characters from other franchises that coulda been chosen?

As far as being broken up over it, i’m just a bit annoyed because i see a bunch pf great, interesting characters from years of franchises and instead we get a cookie cutter human with sword.

People are down because that slot taken is a slot that could have been given to another character. Not everyone is going to get their fave and this is just another reminder that companies don’t listen/care what fans want.

Honestly tired of all these FE characters, 4 tops was enough! I find them lackluster honestly, but to each their own!

EDIT: Still hoping for Geno or Hollow Knight sometime around



Hahah bro i was sooooo hoping for Geno! Dont know why cloud is the square rep when he wasnt even on a nintendo console. Lots of other much more memorable heroes like half-esper Tera from ff6 woulda been the perfect choice i feel, or Cecil or even a Moogle.

So who's disappointed by the newest Marth clone in Smash Ultimate? Lol

Was really hoping for someone new myself especially after Sakurai mentioned the fighters would all be from other franchises but who am I to complain, I only paid for the pass up front after all. If it's not obvious I'm quite salty about this lol.

What are everyone elses thoughts?

Your thoughts on magic/skill leveling

Wow this is all really great stuff, thanks for all the insight guys. You all bring up great points.

And yes, I agree with you, LockeZ, limitations can definitely be more of a good thing if done right. I tend to get bored later in the game if I become too powerful, it's nice to feel challenged and like you need to work for things.

Back in the day I really liked the Saints Row games but when the fourth one rolled around where you get super powers and are really powerful right at the start I kind of lost interest. I liked in Saints Row 2 how you had to work for everything first.

Your thoughts on magic/skill leveling

I'm wondering what everyone's thoughts are for skills and magic when it comes time to upgrade in their own games.

Maybe Basic Healing A is great at the start of a game healing 200Hp but what happens when your party reaches 5000Hp (and beyond) and that skill sits at the bottom of the list taking up space and adding to the 'scroll time' to select the newer an better skills?

.. Or another example, maybe a skill gives a Mp Regen buff to one person and later we can upgrade it to a full party Mp Regen buff instead? Keep in mind that upgrading the skill to the next level may increase Mp consumption..

For skills like these I'm asking all you designers and players, do you prefer to have the option of using the single AND party targeting skills or keep it simple and just have the upgraded version? What options do you give players in your games?

Hello, I'm New!

Hey man, I haven't really been a forum frequenter myself either but have been here for years shamelessly leeching off the knowledge of all these good people :p

Disgaea was a favorite of mine growing up as well, hoping for Disgaea 6 soon.
