[RM2K3] Questions about progression blockers and other things

I'll try exploring more. It's just difficult to figure out everything all at once heh. Sorry for the hassle.

[RM2K3] Questions about progression blockers and other things

I'm not sure how to use those yet heh. I will look into it at some point. Right now I'm just trying to make a short little game for the heck of it, nothing very elaborate. :)
I hope you don't mind me asking another question, but how can you make the "hero" receive an item? Say, the hero talks to someone and they give the hero a plush.

Thank you! I'm a tiny bit confused though. How do you make the act of reading the letter turn on a switch?
EDIT: Never mind! I did it! Thank you a lot I've been spending hours trying to figure this out!

Thank you a lot! I got the sprite down really easily. Now I just am having a real difficult time with the progression blocker. Is this the tutorial you meant? http://rpgmaker.net/tutorials/601/
Right now I want the player to not be able to leave their house unless they read a letter that is on their table. There's a yes/no option for the letter, so if they don't read it they can't leave. If they choose yes, they can. Sorry for all the hassle!
edit: and I'd like to know how your character can acquire an item. (sorry I'm just a big huge noob who needs their hand held aha...)

[RM2K3] Questions about progression blockers and other things

I've sort of begun making a tiny game, using my own custom chipsets and the like. That's easy enough to understand, but I don't know how to do other things, such as...
1. how to make it so your character cannot progress unless they perform a specific action.
2. how to make an object be able to be picked up and seen in the menu and then be able to be used in the future for a specific event
3. make (perhaps) a ghost's sprite only stand in place and bob up and down /or make a ghost capable of just floating around while also bobbing up and down
etc. etc. etc.

Sorry for yammering! I'm just not sure how to do these things and I don't know what tutorial would aid me. If any of you know how, I'd appreciate it if you told me or linked me to the tutorial!

Thank you a lot! I'm just super new to this engine.

How old are you?

Short games are a good start for newbies.

I'm 17. :3

My sentence was ambiguous, sorry about that. I meant 10 minutes for someone else to play.

If it's 2K3, I'm kinda thinking you want to look at this tutorial. I'm not sure if there's one similar to that for VX Ace (Lite) or not.

*Edit: Wait, now that I'm reading Liberty's post, and re-reading the OP, 10 minutes to make? Maybe ten minutes to play, but ten minutes to make? Huge difference, there!
Woops wrong word choice sorry!
(Also thank you for the link)

As I said I'm new here so I don't know much at all. ^^; I really like the idea of making a game, even if it takes the user playing the game 10 minutes to complete.

I downloaded RM2K3 and I guess that's a program you need to make a little rpg maker game. I have a very vague understanding of how to use it. I once tried to use RPG Maker VX Ace Lite (is that also okay to use?) and had great difficulty with, well, everything aha.

I don't understand how you make chipsets, maps, events, characters, etc. etc. etc. Absolutely nothing. What I'm getting at... is there like a huge tutorial (or many separate ones) for this program that is taught in such a way that a 10 year old could make a successful game? Ahaha. Thanks. ^^;
