FUCK YOU, amateur game devs. FUCK YOU.
>>740894497I hate the modern internet so much it's unreal.
let me guessyou gotta join their discord to get support
>>740894497>site where people get told "use (plugin)" instead of discussing how to solve problemsI fail to see the issue here. RPG Maker's community is a bunch of mouthbreathers who wouldn't know how to use the pointer function of the older 2k/2k3 makers even if they studied it for weeks.
>>740894497Tell me the best free plugins I can grab before the forums fucking die.
>>740894497I've wasted so much time on rpg maker and haven't made a single complete game
Meanwhile, this is what constitutes "problem solving" for the average RPG Maker user.
>>740894657yeah that's exactly what they said, they're continuing in Discord
>>740894497>have had interest in making an RPG Maker game lately>this happens It's over Gonna lose over a decade worth of guides. Don't know if Youtube tutorials will be enough
>>740894497This is literally genocide against porn games. I bet MasterCard had something to do with this...
>>740894870Same, I was like, "I will make the sprites first and then move to RPG maker and implement all the shit I made"I mean I will still do it but if I find a roadblock for something I will be kinda fucked.
>>740894497Why hasnt anyone made an alternative to rpgmaker? Like rpgmaker fucking sucks.
We have readily available AI and Google and none of you fucking retards bothered to do a quick check. It's fucking moving to a new forum. The old one is read only until mid December. Also some based retard will likely archive the entire shit before November.
Isn't this a nothingburger? Who the fuck uses their official forums? The west has had it's own RPG Maker communities long before it even had official translations.
>>740894650same
>>740894497Guess I'll just ask AI to help me work.
>>740895056>the replacement in question: https://guild.rpgmakerofficial.com/What the fuck is this absolute disaster of a website? How on earth can anyone code this and think "yeah perfect ship it"
>>740894497Y
>>740894840haha
>>740894497Why not just lock all the threads, limiting it to read-only?
>>740895046there is Wolf RPG Editor, but the people who translated it to English did not bother translating a single user-made tutorial, so the software as a whole remains largely a developing toy for people who already know how to code.
>>740895046Dude, your Wolf RPG Editor?
>>740895213>it's just a somehow just shitter customised version of discourse
>>740895046Bro just learn godot, it's not exactly difficult if all you want to do is crappy 2D rpg gamesHell even game maker would do
>>740895303What's this, some sort of VIPRPG made by a 4channer?
>>740894497>RPG Maker game engine forum to be DELETED with no backup planBut why?
>>740895638because it's current year and everything has to be shit
>>740895046Because they don't have (arguably) good quality built-in assets like RPGMaker's RTP stuff.
>>740894657>let me guessMost Reddit phrase ever.
>>740895927>man who has only ever browsed reddit thinks every phrase is reddit
>>740895927Actually the most reddit phrase ever is "we're deleting our old forum because we have Discord!"
>>740895927breathing is reddit you should stop doing it
>>740895638Because moving even a megabyte of data around the internet can get really expensive really quick. Lets see you try and host gigabytes to terabytes of data to thousands of users on your gaming rig.
>>740895927It's weird how ponies are still banned but the symbol of a website that has repeatedly raided 4chan and in one case actually took it down is allowed to be posted.
>>740896225'jaks were originally 4chan thoughbeit

>>740895406>learning shitdot
i get it if you want to stop needing to do moderation on the old style of forum, but what is the purpose of destroying the archives? the cost to host them is minimal, just shut down posting and leave them up
>>740894497Just rip it now. At least they gave a warning.

>>740895303But what does the dog do.>>740897019Some retard is looking at the cost per year and saying cut it while ignoring the fact any replacement solution will be 100x more.
>>740897212it sounds like the deal is that they already have the replacement solution in place, in that they have a discord server. they don't want to do both, but it's just silly to kill the text forum when it's such a minimal cost

>>740896729Nta, but the Hasbrouck horses back when their show was first starting to get real big, was becoming a Trojan horse, pun not intended, for furries to get around the ban and derail boards with their degeneracy. It was a rabid fanbase of social outcasts that housed, genuine creeps, sexpests and predators when left unchecked.
>>740894497Oh and here I was thinking about making my dream JRPG.
>>740897550>It was a rabid fanbase of social outcasts that housed, genuine creeps, sexpests and predators when left unchecked.that's no different from literally any other fanbase in the current year of our lord
>>740897530
>>740894497its a forum, someone will have it scraped and archived within a week. Myrient was hundreds of terabytes and everything from there was preserved easily.
>>740894497and you anons keep wondering why Reddit has a billion users even though it's complete shit.
>>740897626As anon said you had to have been there to really see what I mean, the current horse fucker fanbase is nowhere near the levels of depraved as it was back then.

>>740897968not really true, plenty of discords are specifically information hubs. IRC was also full of lookup servers
>>740894497I have no word, the older internet dying before our eyes.
>>740897946Have you seen the storage drive prices lately?
>>740897968Forums were not much better after maybe 2010. >PM'd u the link ;)>you must register to view links>megauploadThe internet has honestly been cancer all the way down for as long as I've known it.
>>740898057nigger, they're not even expensive. if you're this much of a poorfag you don't even get to complain, the world just fucking happens to you
>>740898052that's not what he said, just because retards use discord as information hubs doesn't make it useful as one
>>740898052You can cram as much information as you like inside it but the search engine is complete ass so good luck anything.
>>740898151ok, i will amend my statementplenty of discords are useful as information hubs, and the same was true of IRC when it was dominant
>>740898173try checking the pins next time retard
>>740898237It would be nice if I could just google these things but you can't when all of them are on fucking discord.
>>740894497Can't they, huh... like, archive it before the end of the year?
>>740898365google doesn't work anymore so it doesn't matter either way
>>740898419a guy on new forum said the posts are owned by the user, and they are legally not allowed to migrate them or archiveso thats a new oneanother guy said the japs dont use the old forum so they dont give a shit, they have their own 3rd party site
>>740898519that makes sense, it's the same legal reason they can host the content without bearing legal responsibility for it
>>740894497>no archiveis it not already on the web archive? seems like a rather easy thing to fix within the week
why not just keep the forums?there's a lot of free forum host out there, even the old 90/00's are still around, why not just self host or make their own mastodon server?
>>740898519What happened about saying fuck your gay as jap fee-fees and scrapping it anyway, puting on an onion or i2p site, or even the fucking blockchain if necessary?Man the internet has become so fucking gay
>>740895927I'm gonna ram my colt up your dick hole and blow your balls off just for saying that
>>740898760anybody can do that, yeah, it's just companies that aren't going to take on legal liability
They had to go.Its far too easy to make porn games with it.

>>740894497Time to go through every resource out there and download backups, good thing I have lots of threads bookmarked.Still inexcusable and this shit happened few years ago to a Japanese forum too. Fuck
>>740894650yado.tk lets you relive that pre-2005 internet when you're looking for RPG Maker 2000/2003 tutorials.
>>740897626You would not be saying this if you used literally any board on 4chan before those motherfuckers got quarantined.
>>740897205https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qs15KjCPthE
>>740899026Sounds like you need correction.
Why is the internet dying?
>>740899150not even that, the april fools last year when all the boards were slowly shut down had a brief stint without that particular containment board and they were STILL obnoxious as hell once it became clear the rule wasn't in effect for the day
>>740898909On my official based/gay rating the only ones who scored a passing grade were the over 60's.Grim times ahead it seems.
>>740899347Centralization
the entire forum was cryptobots promoting shit like every single other forum nowadays
>>740894497I hope this force porn devs to move to something else
>>740899347Late stage capitalism and somebody opened the Indian floodgates.
>>740899406>futanari>gayNah you're gay bro. 1 girl + 1 girl is always better than just one girl. It's simple math.
>>740898519Tell those fucking pearl clutching squeamish clowns to use AI to summarize that shit, it can apparently ignore copyright, better use it for something useful
>>740899542*Chinese
>>740899347I forget the finer details, but it's something along these lines.
>>740899594Looking at a girl and thinking "damn this'd be hotter if she had a dick" is more gay than fucking a guy
>>740899347>>740899656Paired with this.
>>740899656this is bullshit, though, it makes it look like the internet is staying the same size and being absorbed rather than the fact that over that time period the internet grew massively, and the growth was just mostly those sites
I haven't followed the scene forever. Do people still even use it now? I feel the heyday of RPGM died out when more powerful game engines started to exist

>>740899347Anything genuine and non board-approved has to go. The ideal society for cocksucking elites is one empty and sterile not worth living in, in which they can rot in boredom sitting on of a big pile of money.
>>740899757It's still used for a massive amount of porn games on dlsite
>>740899697>>740899620The Chinese are largely in their own government approved bubble though, Indians are everywhere we are. They are in this thread typing in broken English trying to convince us the Chinese are the problem.
At least rpgmaker.net is back (for now)
>>740899823You guys are quick to defend the Chinese.

>>740899992the forum is a graveyard of shit that doesnt work anymore, nobody who uses rpgmaker gives a single shit about it
>>740899805I know you're a disingenuous homofaggot who is use to eating shit but the rest of us are use to things staying on the internet for 20+ years undisturbed
>>740899784The Playstation version always fascinated me... like who the fuck thought that game making software with only a controller as input would be a good idea? And no proper export or ability to add assets? Just a strange ass concept

>>740898989>RPG maker thread>Posts a WolfRPG game???
>>740899715yes that's the gist of itnormies got to the internet due to the increased accessibility of smartphones (the death knell of both the internet and society as a whole), all of them flock to the same accessible sites and create singularities of content that keep attracting the rest of the normies for all of timesmartphones and overly accessible sites (doomscrolling) in turn turned normies retarded
>>740894497Was mantaining the site too much for them or what the fuck?How many sites and libraries must burn on the new internet?Also I hope the archival process is already ongoing.

>>740895056>>740900539We've read it, we're mad that they aren't archiving fucking anything. There are resources that still work across nearly all the different versions of RPGMaker that are just gonna be lost to the winds. There's a non-insignificant chunk of plugins/assets made by people who literally died during these forum's lifetime that will now be lost unless some autist actually archives EVERYTHING.Fuck those niggers, come up with a better end of life plan. They're already hosting the forums as read-only for the year, figure out a way to host it longer term or pass on the site code to someone who can.
>>740898052Discord search indexing is godawful and you can't find pages from a standard search engine. It is find for support at that moment, but it is not useful if you have to look through the back catalog for help on an old problem. And moderators don't pin every useful answer or sometimes any useful answer.
>>740902183I just decided to replay The Way with my bro for the first time in like 15 years. It's jankier than I remembered but honestly it holds up well.I'll have to replay TTHW after and see if that also holds up.
>>740895927Let me guess, you're mad right? But you can't be too mad cause you ordered me a chili dog!
>>740902407nigga they don't even have the rights for RPGMaker for years now, they keeping the forums alive was a miracle itself

How much are you getting paid to shill for this decision?
>>740894657I bet they still have their donations open to, even tho it's Discord that's going to be managing everything.
>people still replying showing they didn't read shit and are going by a fucking twitter screencapnuke this site
>>740902549>they don't even have the rights for RPGMaker for years nowOkay????? So how does that detract from my point exactly?They've managed to moderate, update, and maintain a website forum (which they didn't even own the rights to) for years now and you're telling me they couldn't figure out some shit for archiving things on it? It seems like they very much have the capabilities to do so even with the rights being questionable, or else the forums should have died those many years ago when they lost the rights in the first place.
>>740894657

>>740901565> nesting IF statements inside of the ELSESometimes this is necessary for 1-3 steps deep but when you reach 4+ it's time to rethink how you're doing the script.Also, IF statements don't always need an ELSE; they can work just fine without one. Know what counts as an ELSE?The next line of the script, which the program will go through after checking the current IF.So instead of "IF[ELSE[IF[ELSE[IF[ELSE]]]]]" you can just put into the event: "IF[]IF[]IF[]">>740901625> parallel processsometimes you need parallel processes but most of the time newbies make the mistake of making every event one of these.really shouldn't, because each event gets iterated through and eats into the command cycle budget just doing checks on events that don't have its requirements met.and here's a couple more:> create a loop using labels> don't include a "wait 0.0 (1 frame)" inside of it> wonder why performance goes to shitalso known as: "how to use 100% of your cycle processing budget in one single event"> want to create a particle system> use all 1000 pictures made on a loop> the pictures are badly cropped and are 267x369 pixels and use transparency along with rotationbruh0. the fewer picture draw commands you use, the better, as each picture has to be loaded from the drive when it gets set to a picture id number.1. multiples of 2 for file dimensions allows for better storage/memory management because of computer math2. transparency has a massive processing cost because it's doing the color blending math per pixel every frame. small images hurt less than large images3. the programs rotation feature is automatic and can not be stopped or paused at an arbitrary angle. you should be setting up your own animation sequence and then moving through the frames by event scripts instead.

>>740903215Loops never had a built-in 1f wait anyway. People just got scared off from using proper loops because of the bug in 2k and 2k3 which would cause break loop commands to catch nested inner loops instead of breaking the outer loop.
>>740903280And you are a retarded knuckle dragging retard.Imagine not wanting the people who have the best resources (and website source code) available who could do the site archiving a billion times easier than an autist with a site scraper.If you already have the infrastructure set up, it really isn't that much money to host a read-only site.Or if it really is that much trouble, pass it on to someone who can. There's a myriad of site mods and jannies who have a vested interest in keeping that shit archived, go to them.But no, instead the site is getting deleted after a year and people have to dig through manually to find the shit they used in the past for their games. Let alone any newcomers who have now lost a literal library of alexandria's worth of knowledge and assets to help them make a new game.KILLYOURSELF
