EoFF RPG: Take #382

[Rase]

EDITED DUE TO NEW VERSION

Okay, well, it seems that EoFF has had more RPG's about it than Final Fantasy itself. Of course, only one (that I know of) was ever actually, you know, finished, but that's beside the point, which is that I have finally decided to have a go at it.
Now, before you all go "Ha, this will never get off of the ground", well HA to you, because it already has. Over the past two days four days (Spring break = ) I have secretly been working on this, due to a sudden strike of severe boredom roughly 2 hours into my Spring Break. What do I have to show for it? A little, 15-20 min 45-60 min demo type thingie. An RPG, that's what. Think of it as a storyboard type thing, laying out the basic foundation without all the bothersome flash and dazzle. That stuff will (hopefully) come later.
Anyway, as I'm sure you're all dying to see it, here are links to the two files you will need.
Rpg Maker XP Postailty Knights Edition Enhanced
Current Version

Steps:
NOTE: The screens shown here were from EoFF v2.0. Everything is the same now, just the folder will be EoFF v2.1, and so on.
1. Simply download the above files and extract them using WinZip.
2. Install Rpg Maker XP Postailty Knights Edition Enhanced
3. Cut/Copy the EoFF v2.1 folder from wherever you put it.
4. Go to your C: Drive and click Games.
5. Click the only folder in there.
6. Click the Games folder.
7. Paste the EoFF v2.1 folder in the Games folder, like so.
8. Open the folder and click the Game icon.

Okay, there you go, I think I covered everything. As for any last questions:
No, I don't think it's amazingly good.
Yes, I am proud of it.
Yes, I do plan on actually going through with it.
No, I won't gurantee that I will.
No, I don't know if it is or will be better than Sick Irony, as I've never played that. However, the odds seem heavily against me, so I'll just go with no on that one.

After you're done, feel free to post/PM me any ideas, or corrections for any errors I made. If you have trouble getting the game to work, PM me and I'll try and help you figure it out.

If a mod or admin sees this and deems it worthy, it'd be great if it was stickied. More people playing = more ideas = me being more willing to go through with this.

It glitched after a couple screens into the intro...
Sorry...

One mistake I found was that it's "bear with me" not "bare with me"
Just throwing that out there.

If you get it going though, I'll be sure to try it out.

Tried to download the game file and it said "Document not found"

-Edit- There it is.

[Erdrick Holmes]

Oh man, I hope when/if you put me in it you made it awesome.

[Psychotic]

The XP files are downloading now! And well done on pre-empting the Sick Irony whines. Sick Irony was alright, but unless you're an extremely old oldbie, (there's about 4 of them left) you won't get most of the humour.

[Rase]

Oh man, I hope when/if you put me in it you made it awesome.

While you are not currently in it, I have plans to have you, along with at least fifty other well-known members, along with a host of "forgotten" members, make at least cameo appearances, if not more. Right now I'm more focused on making sure this is playable, since it seems oddler had a problem.

[Hawkeye]

Make Psychotic the crack whore so all my dreams can come true in this game!

[XxSephirothxX]

Making an RPG takes a lot of dedication, and I hope you go through with it, man. Mine's kind of stalled right now, and it's especially hard to get going because I'm trying to make it funny. And I'm not that great at being funny. It's not EoFF Based, though.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the lot of us.
*Downloads*

[Jebus]

That was great. Looking forward to the finished bit.

*hopes chat is involved inthe final game so he gets to be in it*

Aops > CKs anyway.

[Rase]

For any wanting to see what it looks, I decided to make a few screenies. Unless you've never seen RPG Maker Xp before, you probably won't be too amazed, but whatever.

Okay, when I opened it, it gave an error saying Graphics\Titles\EoFF Title could not be found. I fixed that one just by making the aforementioned file.

Anyway, that was pretty neat. It had some clever ideas as to putting the forums into RPG format. Maybe this stuff is spoilers, so:

(SPOILER)When it asked us for a user name, and he replied "Psychotic", you had me believing for a second that it knew who had downloading it and was playing it.

WAHAHAHAHHA BEHOLD THE VOID IS AN OLD MAN!

EoEO has to feature a conservatives vs liberals war. It simply has to!

I did notice a couple of grammatical errors, but I didn't write them down. Sorry. Someone else will pick up on them though.

[Erdrick Holmes]

Umm, I thought RPG Maker made battles have a side view, like in the FF games. This is First person, like in Dragon Warrior.

[Rase]

I believe RPG Maker 2000 did it in the DW format, 2003 in the FF format, and now XP is back to the DW format.

[Erdrick Holmes]

Which is easier to program? 2k3 or XP?

[Rase]

For scripting, I don't know, I don't handle that stuff. In general, I'd say you would probably have an easier time using RPG Maker 2k3, if only for the fact that, since it's older, there are a ton of tutorials for it and plenty of experienced people who know what their doing and are willing to help. A good place for 2k3 tutorials is Gaming World, which also has forums devoted to helping people with these and other game making programs.
