    Hi, I know this is easy for y'all but I kinda confuse, how can I connect one map to another like in other pokemon games? Is it with event, editor, or the PBS one? I don't quite understand the note, so, please help me

    I know I haven't posted in a LONG time, and I don't want any questions related to my game right about now.

    Anyway, look at the below picture:

    As you can see, the wall tile is set to be impassable, yet I can pass it. Other impassable tiles really are impassable, except for this wall. I've applied it, but still I get the problem. How am I to combat this?

    See those passable blank tiles at the top? You may have put one of those over-top your walls on the second or third layer. I sometimes do this by accident! Try to put an unpassable blank tile over them in these layers and it should be fixed.

    Thanks! It worked! I've already messed up on two maps and it took a long time to fix, but I managed to pull it off. Thanks anyway.

    ok, i'm trying to use Hypercam 2 but it's recording outside noises such as my voice, how can I make it so records internal sounds such as game music, etc...

    *I'm using Windows Vista.

    What you want to do is make an Event on the Event layer. Depending on what way you want to obtain a Starter, you'd have to have the Event carry out different actions. It's kinda hard to explain.

    Put 3 events on the table. Each of these events will be a Poké Ball containing one of the starters. For each event, the first page should be the "this Ball contains X. Do you want to choose X?". Then make a choice, where "no" exits the event and "yes" sets a global switch to ON (meaning yes, you've chosen a starter) and also changes an internal switch (Self Switch A) to ON (meaning yes, you've chosen THIS starter).

    Then make a second and a third page in each of the 3 events. The second page means "another Ball was chosen", which means the page should have a simple "This is a Poké Ball containing one of Prof. Generic's Pokémon" text message (and it should keep the Ball icon because it's still there). The third page means "this Ball was chosen", which means the page should be blank (i.e. doesn't do anything) and its icon should be blank too (because the Ball has disappeared).

    On the secoond page of each (the one that means "another Ball was chosen"), set it so that the page is activated by the global Switch "Starter Chosen" being ON. On the third page of each (the one that means "this Ball was chosen" and is blank), set it so that that page is activated by the Self Switch A being ON.



    This is most easiest to achieve by simply creating one of the events, then copying it twice. Then all you need to do is replace the text message "This Ball contains X" to "This Ball contains Y/Z".

    EDIT: There's an example of how to do this in Essentials (which I'm sure you're using). Seriously, if you find this difficult then you're just going to be overwhelmed by more things in the future, so I'd suggest you at least postpone making your game until you've learned how to use RPG Maker.

    However, the battle screen still appears to be like this:

    What did I do wrong?
    Click to expand...
    Go to the script PokeBattle_ActualScene and go to line 1053
    Code: 
    USECOMMANDBOX=false # If true, expects a file named Graphics/Pictures/commandbox.png
USEFIGHTBOX=false # If true, expects a file named Graphics/Pictures/fightbox.png
    Change the two "false" to true and the files should be named "commandbox" and "fightbox" as said in the notes next to the code.
    It's really straight forward

    It helps to look for answers in the thread specifically made for asking questions about this.

    I have 2 questions. Please help me with them, I am very new to Game developing.

    1: How can I change the size of my game Window?

    2: How can I change the Oak and Hero sprites? They are in PNG, so I couldn't get rid of the background in photoshop.

    Please help me out.

    1. Script "SpriteResizer", lines 12 and 13. Note that these only set the initial screen size - if someone changes it in the Options menu then it'll overwrite the initial size.

    2. Background? I assume you mean the coloured box around the sprites when you use then in the game. Replacing the picture isn't enough - you need to reload it into RPG Maker. Do that with F10 and the "Import"/"Export" buttons. When you import a picture, it asks what colour in the picture should be turned transparent (and semi-transparent, but you won't want to bother with that), so left click the background to make it so. It should be easy enough.
