    In order to use the tutorial, you mUST change the screen size by adding two scripts

    Add this script before all other scripts.
    Code: 
    #==============================================================================
# ■ Win32API
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# by Squall [email protected]
# Change the window size
# I must thank cybersam for his mouse and keyboard scripts. they were very
# useful finding some winapi function.
#
# !! this script MUST be on top of all other or the game will crash,
#    if you use scripts to enlarge maps!
#==============================================================================

class Win32API
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 # ● define constant
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 GAME_INI_FILE = ".\\Game.ini"         # define "Game.ini" file
 HWND_TOPMOST = 0                      # window always active
 HWND_TOP = -1                         # window active when used only
 SWP_NOMOVE   = 0                      # window pos and sizes can be changed
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 # ● Win32API.GetPrivateProfileString // check your game title in Game.ini
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 def Win32API.GetPrivateProfileString(section, key)
   val = "\0"*256
   gps = Win32API.new('kernel32', 'GetPrivateProfileString',%w(p p p p l p), 'l')
   gps.call(section, key, "", val, 256, GAME_INI_FILE)
   val.delete!("\0")
   return val
 end
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 # ● Win32API.FindWindow // find the RGSS window
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 def Win32API.FindWindow(class_name, title)
   fw = Win32API.new('user32', 'FindWindow', %(p, p), 'i')
   hWnd = fw.call(class_name, title)
   return hWnd
 end
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 # ● Win32API.SetWindowPos // change window positions and sizes
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 def Win32API.SetWindowPos(w, h)
   title =  Win32API.GetPrivateProfileString("Game", "Title")
   hWnd = Win32API.FindWindow("RGSS Player", title)
   swp = Win32API.new('user32', 'SetWindowPos', %(l, l, i, i, i, i, i), 'i')
   win = swp.call(hWnd, HWND_TOP, 0, 0, w + 6, h + 32, 0)
   
   #the line below makes the window on top of all others
   #win = swp.call(hWnd, HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, w + 6, h + 32, SWP_NOMOVE)
   return win
 end
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 # ● Win32API.client_size // check the window width and height
 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 def Win32API.client_size
   title =  Win32API.GetPrivateProfileString("Game", "Title")
   hWnd = Win32API.FindWindow("RGSS Player", title)
   rect = [0, 0, 0, 0].pack('l4')
   Win32API.new('user32', 'GetClientRect', %w(l p), 'i').call(hWnd, rect)
   width, height = rect.unpack('l4')[2..3]
   return width, height
 end
end

#==============================================================================
# ■ proceed with creation of the window
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# the width and height variables set the screen size.
#==============================================================================
 $width = 480
 $height = 320
 win = Win32API.SetWindowPos($width, $height)
 if(win == 0)
   p "Size change has failed!"
 end

    Also, you have to add that script before the Main script in the list
    Code: 
    #==============================================================================
# ■ Game_Player
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  remade to be compatible with change sreen size script
#==============================================================================

class Game_Player < Game_Character
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● define constant
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
CENTER_X = ($width/2 - 16) * 4    # X coordinate in the center of the screen
CENTER_Y = ($height/2 - 16) * 4   # Y coordinate in the center of the screen
end

#==============================================================================
# ■ Spriteset_Map //[email protected]
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# remade to be compatible with change sreen size script
#==============================================================================

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Now your screen size is 480*320, just like a double sized GBA.

    ~~~~~~~~~~

    To make the player in the middle like the gba - do this below.

    You need to know the formula to make the player stays in the very centre as well as making the connections accurately with Teleport event commands.

    I am not responsible for any mess up of teleports, or loss of any maps. You have to make sure one teleport link is in same spot like if you place the event on the exit of Newbark town, you have to put it in the same spot at the border's edge of Route 29. Got it? :) Also you must have something to block something on the teleport so people wont get trapped on the border edges.

    Height:
    ^
    8
    V
    Your
    map
    size
    ^
    12
    V
    Click to expand...

    Width:
    <8> Your map size <12>
    Click to expand...

    Ta-da! I have corrected the up-down conenctions so its finalized for your use.


    Rewritten with addition of screen changing size script
