This is terrible news. It means multiple game engines won't have decades of technical support and solutions and it will harm obscure indie games that autists translate on /jp.If you have the means **START ARCHIVING** as much of the forum as you can. And tell the Stop Killing Games people about it so they can petition the European Union harder and maybe keep the megacorps from killing the instruction manuals for the next video game engines.** Why is this happening? ** Because RPG Maker has new corporate owners and they are also delisting old DLC from RPG Maker on Steam. That way you'll be forced to buy their new engine, trololo. The line must go up.
Do I have to guess the ethnicities of the individuals who now own the rights ? It seems Godot will have new customers if it really is that bad, I feel bad for you/jp/ies, really
>>740839931>RPG maker I guess the whole 2d ero games market will collapse? It had some nice games here and therePerhaps make another thread when the board is more active in like 7-9 hours
>>740839931>proprietary engine goes proprietaryWhat a twist! This is why FUTO is so harmful to open-source.They specifically want commercial monopoly, when vendor lock-in is the tool enabling this shit.
I thought their new engine sold like shit. Are they trying to piss off their remaining base?
>>740839931Man ATF dying myrient dying now this
>>740839931I don't care, everything actually worth keeping was lost when megaupload shut down
>>740841750doxnvke
>>740839931Sounds pretty shitty
>>740839931i dont get it. the engine owner also owned the forums? why wouldn't the community just make independent forums if they cared?
>>74084142199% of those games are japanesethere's aura and... uh, maybe a handful of other western games. lona, but i don't think the author is americanmost eroge discussion takes place in other forums anywaythe sudden shutdown is sus. usually there's a handoff
>>740842064There's rpgmaker.net which has been around for ages, it's just less popular than the official forums, I guess
>>740839931>no more autismkino
>>740842264so people already have an independent forum but they're mad because.... ?
God fucking dammit. Why can't we have nice things?
>>740842461just forum user things
>>740839931>That way you'll be forced to buy their new enginePeople are paying for rpg maker? Since when?
>>740840887>Do I have to guess the ethnicities of the individuals who now own the rights ?Koreans? Do Jews even care about RPGM?
>>740839931Bump. Fuck these kikes
>>740839931bump what the fuck
>>740839931I managed to grab the SRPG engine in time, I was never expecting this fucking thing to die.
>>740842195yeah but all the tech support was on those forums. game devs are computer illiterate, so without 9 paid addons they can't even do a rain effect on the main menu, games will never get finished
>>740839931(((kadokawa))) sold it?
>>740839931what the fuck?At least there's going to be archives... I've been using those forums alot lately to figure out how to do stuff in the engine. It's REALLY bad if they're not archived.
>>740839931would be better to put on /vrpg/
Everything must be enshittified, no exceptions
>>740840028>discord for archivalaaaaaaAAAAAAAAA
>>740842461I assume there're a ton of resources that've been built up there over the years but I've never visited them myself to actually know
>>740844464GOOD. If total spoonfeeder death is what it takes to cause total nepo-dev death, then I will support it. Let it all collapse and let only those willing to swallow their pride, grudgingly ignore Blackrock freebucks, and cut into theirs insane profits to hire skilled people again survive.
>>740839931no wonderpeople get 0 compensation or even attention for their workone of the most ungrateful jobs is being a plugin developer for rpgmaker
>>740846295I'll credit you if I remember.
Who cares lol the whole thing is already in training datasetsWhy are you trawling through human writing for technical support in 2026 when AI instantly answers any question lmao
>>740839931>Steamyou still cant use scripts or even a freaking < sign for event page conditions, but they are selling something as if they deserve the moneythe only use that engine has is visualizing your js scripts and providing out of the box solutions for ui and shit or teaching small kids about how to make a game.
godot discorders really care about that engine right? so force the devs to simplify their engine UI to the same state as rpgmaker, with the option to return to the normal wayand no, it has always been like that is not a valid reason to not improve things
>>740847293Godot is a simple as it fucking gets when compared to unity and unrealLearn to code you fucking retard
>>740846369no its not, ai just regurgitates the info from the first results that pop up on google and give a made up answer confidently, then when you call it out it passive aggressively (because it’s mostly trained on reddit data) says ‘oh! you’re right to correct me on that! sorry for hallucinating!’ then confidently gives another false fucking answer. fuck ai it’s fucking useless outside of porn clips.
>>740847546fuck you retard, im already doing everything in notepad++, which i consider a failure of the engine, and elitism never helps anyone
>>740847703if you ask a correct question it usually deliversjust reduce hallucination rate down if it makes too much shit up https://ai.google.dev/
>>740847703>t. free model user
>RPG MakerWho cares? Shit's dead anyway, It's not 10s anymore.
>>740847823nah i dont think i will. not my fucking job. AI is dog shit.>>740847849>look at me i piss money down the drainyou’re like a nigger with a flashy chain, that’s now worth fuckin nothing
>>740847862you have no idea how often rpg maker games are made and how popular the engine still is.
>>740847703based clanker hater
>>740840028>discord againall possible future knowledge is completely unaccusable for the search enginesbut muh freaking roles and meme image spam are very important
>>740840028I honestly think Discord is the worst thing that happened in the Internet since mass spam killed the Usenet.It's like some garbage combination of IRC+Skype, that you cant really admin and is filled with weirdos and rats at the super admin level, also if it goes down (well gets taken down more likely, because like i said above, weirdos and rats) all knowledge in there is lost forever.Everyday i hope Amazon or some such thing buys it and runs into the ground.
>>740839931Honestly there have been LGBTQ and BLM events on those forums, the usual suspects got into moderator positions as they do with many old forums and blogs, they are revisionists, notice how they go after the most obscure games and hobbies. Here's a RIP and some RPGMaker game, you know the one.7M6YP-TG3LH-DF5T2XJV6L-L3BIV-C2KP794B4Z-3VJKB-FJG5PHKA8Z-Q4F30-KT4CXGFC82-XJC0P-4ZDQ5JD5BQ-P2XCF-5LFWP8E9RP-GIE35-2ET0A8EFCF-KRCCJ-Y9ITEKNFDQ-KKTNQ-PWA9XRE3CR-4WHAB-5FL5GQ45GM-C5IMY-0ZVZ9MEJYA-2A7I7-0YVNQ2A3YY-2I6PM-57BBH
>>740848460This is a common sentiment among intellects.
>>740848664>2A3YY-2I6PM-57BBHGrabbed this one whatever it is. Thanks.
>>740848664Any of those actually good?
>>740848664Thanks, got one for the one called "Lostboy", seems interesting
>>740839931The internet I grew up on is being 404’d and erased from existence.
>>740846293total nepo-dev is fine, but what's that got to do with anything?rpgmaker gamedevs, at least the ones that release finished games, are mostly japanese salarymen. you probably don't realize this, but all of gamedev is tech illiterate. palworld was backed up on flash drives and that's bleeding edge tech for those guys. i was also shocked at first, but it's not as bad as you'd think: nearly all of the work in gamedev is placing objects and making assets. programming is 1% or less of making a game. so what if peak gamedev version control is copy pasting the folder? because of this, tech illiterates finish making games. and that's more than you can say for programmers, 99% of those guys all crash out when they realize writing the code is only the very beginning of the work
>>740849585total nepo-dev death* i meant to saydev and death both having a d made my brain think i already wrote death
>>740839931it's already dead from a long time agothe remnant all moved to discord anyway
>>740840028tell them to use matrix, Discord will eventually ban their hentai shit 100% and still require you to upload your face to the wall of shame just for the israeli niggers to blame and shame you for it.
>>740839931Why teh fuck is it shutting down? No really. This was a fantastic resource for figuring out why my porn games weren't workingWhat's their solution now? Discord?>>740840028Oh of fucking course it's discord.
>>740841782Shit. Alternatives?>>740841843That's dramatic.
>>740849690Discord is bigger than reddit
>>740842195>99% of those games are japaneseAnd you need that forum to know how to get things to work. There were versions of Vx Ace that were only archived there, and some of those games required specific versions of RTPs to function, of course they aren't found anywhere else on the net.
rpgrevolution chads ww@?
>>740849738Discord is more controlled than Reddit, sure satanic shit exists there if its owned by Jews news flash retard: Discord is not your friend. (They protect Jewish interests over anything else, furries are Jewish interests, they rather protect furries over kids.)
>>740849738Will THIS community be bigger than reddit? No. It'll be 14-15 people on an unsearchable chat room that will get taken down in a year or two when one of its owners has a hissy fit, like all of them do. Meanwhile even if a subreddit has 3 people, you can still search all of its information for eternity on any search engine or archive, even if the whole thing is deleted. What a stupid fucking thing you just said. This is like saying Telegram is bigger than reddit so all of the internet should migrate there.
>>740839931>>740840028Why are they closing it down?>moving to discord 'for the time being'This will be permanent. Forums dying is awful but them migrating to troon infested discrods is even worse
>>740849916>>740849738Even worse: It's not an official Discord. It's guaranteed to be gone in a year or two while the forum is 20 years old. 20 years of knowledge saved to an invisible discord no one can search and will likely be ran by people who require 30 purity tests to even join, like all the 'unofficial' discords do.
>join random public discord>staff is full of rabid fucking troons, i mean LITERAL troons with anime pfp and fag flag background>just fucking chomping at the bit for someone to do a hecking no-no speech>#general is full of children (of course), actual brain dead third worlders, and ass kissers to the tranny staffalso>discord’s search enginelol lmaoso yeah rpgmaker forum is fucking dead dude. dead and gone.
>>740850009most of the content they make are for the newest anyways because its actually well executed RPG Maker also apparently there's an S-RPG Maker for making Fire Emblem-Esque games too.
>>740839931And rpgmaker.net is still dead.That's not good.
>>740849837>Discord is not your friendDuh. No app is. No billionaire scum is. On the contrary. Literally.
>>740849847Plenty of years old discords. Most rooms are empty, sure enough.>discord should have public infoI mean, yeah. Ai could summarise it in an appropriate manner and publish it.
>>740851035Only GabeN has been my friend out of the capitalist rich fucks. I respect him for it.
>>740849847>should migrate thereNo, I'm merely saying there is migration.>discord can be shit. Unfortunately a likely outcome.
>>740851110Idk. He brought you cheap games you don't play and you paid it by enabling bad business practices.
>>740851171I do play them though?
That kind of sounds like someone is intentionally taking a piss on Japanese indie devs, since they're the ones who actually used RPG Maker. Western indies make games in Unity.
>>740851110>steam cultistkek
>>740851245Playing 3 games for thousands of hours doesn't count when you have 500 games in your library
>>740839931So will this mean fewer RPG maker porn games?
>>740851292>chink who buys from Epic Games full price and enables Chinese espionage.lol.>>740851253Japanese indie devs use their own forums/group chats etc (line usually for direct coms), they don't really interact with English speaking forum users because they just don't care to. (in order to not have to tolerate the woke mob etc.)
>>740851035>>740849837>>740850154>Tired of 4chans low quality>One anon recommends me "Discord" because it is better>Go to Discord for my favourite game>Everyone has a tranime girl pfp with some fugly pink, blue and white flag in the bckground.>They ask me "what my pronouns are">Confused and baffled, I respond he/him>They all start dogpiling me out of nowhere and call me a bigoted chud and tellme that "being male is so out in 2026">Admin DMs me>He tells me that I am a "racist antisemitic bigoted little chuddie" and a "cracka" that I need to become a girl to post on discord or get permabanned>He tells me that a package containing a syringe full of a fluid called "Estogen" will arrive at my house in a few minutes and that I need to inject the fluid into my bloodflow.>A few minutes later, a package actually arrives containing a filthy unsanitary used drug syringe containing some brown slop.>Obviously, I throw it away imediately and lie to the admin that I injected the syringe.>He tells me thtat I next need to do the ritual to become a girl and sends me a video that supposedly provides me with instructions on the ritual.>Open the video.>It's a fat black man wearing a blue white pink flag like a cape sawing off his own dick with a rusty buzzsaw and screaming in pain.>Scarred for life!>Throw up!>Delete the video!>Delete Discord and never return!Fuck that place!
So where are autists who make their own RPGM projects going to shill their games now?
>>740851416should've reported that guy to cops, lmao. (if the story had happened, he would've gotten raided 100%.)
>>740851376they'll be still released to DL-Site and they got their Japanese sources, lazy salarymen don't try to innovate anyways.
>>740851416>I respond he/himThey smelled the weakness of you even dignifying that question with an aswerI don't blame you, since it's a one way street where they can just ban you and you can't reasonably respond as you would irl which is why these freaks go online to begin with.But still, let this be a lesson to never bend the knee to the crazies. Could save you from a vaccine induced heart attack, who knows.>A few minutes later, a package actually arrivesshitposting aside
>>740851712here's how anons should do the whole purity pronoun check whenever pressed:>"My pronouns are complicated okay, they are "You suck/My dick/Faggot Ass Bitch."

>>740851376all knowledge is inside ai nowand porn makers dont need much more than the basic tools anyway
>>740839931>If you have the means **START ARCHIVING**Dude there is not a single game on there worth saving. You wasted your life.
just 3 days of making a game in rpgmaker made me switch to pure java scripts outside the engine for nearly everything, even tho i dont know shit about coding.i dont know why i even use that engine desu
>>740852405if you can make use of javascript, the engine is just a placeholder for assets, cuts down development cost.
>>740851245That would be an exception
>>740851416>They ask me "what my pronouns areNo/non't
>>740852460the biggest issue i have is the grid tied movement of mc and npcs. Im seriously considering switching off just because of that.
This sounds awful. At least there are alternatives now.

>>740841421No, the JP makers have their own forums, spaces, and plugin communities. At most they just use Yanfly stuff, but they really wouldn't feel the impact of the death of the English forums.
>>740856808Ever heard of Poe's Law?
>>740839931For the record, the reason why the forums are dying is because they are making a new one. And they don't feel obligated to import the old content.https://guild.rpgmakerofficial.com/
