SC Monster Pack - RMN edition! (Free Monsters)
After carefully checking out those screenies, I've been wondering how your mimic or goblin or ghost would look like... if you ever make any of them, of course. Just don't make a flying pig / boar! XD
What? Sketches!? Where? O_o?

HiddenChest Player Engine for RM XP VX & ACE
Introducing the Hidden FileInt Class
I gotta admit I didn't come up with such a hidden class, it was provided by mkxp from the very moment I copied its source code to start editing it at will. For my liking, the Ruby method File.exist?('some filename with or without extension') was quite insufficient for it didn't search for anything but uncompressed files, mainly .txt or .rb scripts. This addition allows you to use FileInt.exist? the way you would have used File.exist? but for ANY kind of file.
I mean, you can look for simple files or even compressed ones!
You don't need to add an extension if it's a PNG or JPG or BMP file!

Yeah, the downside is that it's only available for Linux binaries, but you can grab its source code as well.
Let's see if I can get the Windows version running in a few weeks...
HiddenChest Player Engine for RM XP VX & ACE
Important Update!
Actually HiddenChest even supports FullHD! (1920x1080 screen resolution)
So if your game is designed for any resolution higher than your typical 640x480, it will run without stretching the graphics that much or it can even run smoothly in FullHD! No stretch needed!
I have made slight modifications to the Input module to allow you to ask stuff like Input.dir4? to avoid typing all four directions as part of a large if statement.
HiddenChest also features the End of F12's Reign of Terror! Yes! You can now hit that darn button and feel free to enjoy your game! The need of including unless $@ as a safeguard is just a reminiscence of a distant era! Now you can forget about it, you won't need it ever again if you're running the HiddenChest engine to play your RM games!
I even uploaded the source code to GitHub, mainly because its parent project is open source as well.
HiddenChest is no editor, it's just a player. Even so it also includes extra Non RGSS(1 2 or 3) features you can use in your scripts to take advantage of its improvements.
module TestingGround
module_accessor :first_run
end
There module_accessor would let you create one or more setters and getters for any given Module method. It works the same way attr_accessor works in Classes but for Modules only. I found it useful so I just included it in my engine. module_reader and module_writer exist as well. The ReadMe.md file includes more stuff like the above in case you want to read it some day.
The Grandest of Dreamers
While playing as Teressa, I noticed the dialogs are hiding the heroine and some temple priestess (Lola?) as well. That looks terrible, it's like displaying a warning message instead of holding a conversation...
What are you thinking about? (game development edition)
I just hate feeling bored, especially if I am out of ideas for new scripts or features for existing ones. It is not like I hate being lazy, but I still feel desperate to get new ideas, I do not know why... :S
What are your favorite and least favorite parts of gam mak?
If you ask me, nobody did but who cares? I do think the worst part is finishing a game. Perhaps you would feel like you have achieved something great, unforgettable, but not me. To your servitor it would be like having nothing left to do, I might have panicked at the idea of further developing a game or demo with a short story terribly mixed into a crappy game world. Yeah, I hate I cannot find the kind of graphical resources I would love to include in my games. OK, at least some of them would be weird for RPGs, not that much for other genres I guess.
The best part of game making would be... being lazy the whole time!? :P

I gotta tell all of you that mkxpplus is just a mere shadow of the past! XD
Nah, just kidding, guys!
What actually happened is that I just renamed it so the project is now known as hiddenchest or HiddenChest. :P
HiddenChest supports several resolutions like 544*416, 640*480, 800*608, 960*720, 1280*768, 1680*1050 or up to 1920*1080 px!!
Happy game testing!? XP

Ive lost everything to a house fire, link to gofundme

Why don't you love your dog as much as your lizards? XD Perhaps he deserves it...

HiddenChest Player Engine for RM XP VX & ACE
A small but Useful BUMP!
Some user had reported a bug in mkxpplus that was inherited from mkxp itself, the mysterious disappearance of the elusive windowskin! :O
If you were battling a couple of friendly ghosts that only want to hug you to a cold death, you would notice the windows turned almost invisible except for strings like HP, SP and so on. Nope, the truth is the windowskin was more elusive than an Easter Bunny! XD
After breaking my head to find out what was going wrong with it, I recall a workaround I used on any bitmap, the dup(licate) method. Then I wondered if CRuby could avoid the average player like BountyHunterLani (your adorable simple Lani) from looking for a place to type the tiresome four characters ever needed to fix it once for all. Yeah, it was possible! :shocked: If I fool the Cache module by telling it to copy the windowskin instead of accepting it as an universal maker-ish truth, it would never again bother you by munching the windowskin and never even returning it even as a spittle. Now you can safely dispose or hide windows without fearing Cache or GC will ever take their windowskins away from you! :O
By the way, I have uploaded new binary executables for Linux distros and several Windows versions. XD
Happy game testing! :P
