FIREVENGE007'S PROFILE

Ahh I always keep on forgetting to tell people I'm using RPGMaker XP. Sorry about that.

I was just wondering if there was a simple way where one could make it so that a player wouldn't need to download the game maker that the developer used to make the game, so they could just download the game and play straight away.

Thank you for your time.

Thank you.

The reason I wanted it is just because it's how I envisioned the game. I don't like having restraints on experience, because people who enjoy certain skills more than others would enjoy reaching higher experience in that skill.

Also, nobody is expected to reach the highest level in any skill, because although it's quite easy - there are a variety of skills that can be trained, and someone who is playing the game 'normally', meaning balancing their stats out rather than getting max level or higher in 1 skill would not get a max level quite easily.

I understand your concern for people who want to raise a character past the level cap, but the maximum level for skills to me seems overpowered enough. Having a max stat is very useful because it opens up the BEST money-making methods in THAT skill or deals the MOST damage with that character, etc. Adding extra benefits for going past the cap would just ruin the point of leveling all the stats, since a player would believe that they could simply raise one stat and use all the money they earn in that skill to max out the others easily (which already happens on a small scale).

But you must understand also that leveling to the max isn't the main point of the game. The point of levels are to complete quests and quests are used to attain either better equipment, training techniques (for those who want to gain even more experience), raw experience, cash, etc. to help players on their journey to completing the MAIN quest. The MAIN questline has NO requirements whatsoever, but training skills to certain levels are highly recommended to defeat the game.

I'm pretty much rambling on now, but I needed to get my point across.

Well, if he makes enemies give enough experience points, then it's easy to get to max level. I'm not entirely sure what the point is of showing you still gaining more experience points after they don't do anything any more, but I assume he has some complex system in mind that would be built around this feature.

But that's all mostly irrelevant, because I know that __/__ is an RM2K3 thing, so the answer is indeed no.

If you can explain why you want experience points to show up, what system you had in mind that would make use of this, people could maybe suggest different ideas? Someone can probably think of a different feature that would provide the same kind of emotion or game balance that you're trying to create through this one.

The reason I want experience to show up after the level cap is just because that's what I had in mind when I first started building the game, but never got to that part until now since it wasn't the most important thing on the list at the time. But the reason I want to add this is because people who enjoy training a certain character will be disappointed when their character reaches max level, and will no longer show xp. It's kind of a self-achievement type of thing, where even though you have completed something, you can keep on doing what you enjoyed doing previously.

EDIT: To add on, the max levels vary - but in most cases, they are only level 60. I do not wish to change the level cap since it fits nicely with what I made.

Sure, people will always want to cheat, but this is how I want my game to be - and if people don't like it, they shouldn't play it. It's as simple as that. I don't want to penalize anyone for cheating, all i want to do is prevent it from happening.
