Hey all!!!
Currently programming a Multiplayer system in to RPG Maker Vx Ace. I don't have pictures to show of yet (everything's looking quite messy at the moment!) but don't worry because this time next week I should have some pictures to show off :)
Once I have finished my Multiplayer software I'll be releasing it for free! That way everybody can use it, including You... :p
My multiplayer system will be fully functional on RPG Maker Vx Ace and will work with all Tile Sets!
Currently working on:

That sounds great. I'm anxiously awaiting some pictures ;)

Wow a Multiplayer feature for Vx Ace! Well as awesome as that sounds all I can say to you is good luck :) . Programming is hard and putting a system like that in to Vx Ace is going to be extremely difficult and buggy! Before releasing it to the public I'd take a few weeks to check through your software and Vx Ace just to make sure your stuff works 100%.
I've added programming programs to my Vx Ace before now and believe me if you don't find all the bugs it can cause problems ;)
Check through it Miffy and keep everybody updated with pictures Miffy, if it works out I will be downloading it BD -
Hey,
Thanks for the support. I'll probably release some pictures on Sunday or Monday. Depends on how fast I work this weekend?
I'm glad your all very excited :D -
I wish you a good work :D
-
Yeah like Tokumei No said. I wish you the very best of luck on your Multiplayer feature.
I can't wait to see this in action :D
Just one question! What sort of game are you making with your Multiplayer feature?
Will it be a game where everyone plays online with you or will it be a game where you play multiplayer with friends and family - so to simplify it, will it be online or on the lan? -
@Tokumei No: Thank you :p
@Fire Bird: My Multiplayer feature will be lan multiplayer. You'll be able to download it and will be able to play with your families. I might consider an online version sometime in the future. But for now it stays as lan :D -
Before everyone get's overly excited about this I think I should point out that making a true multiplayer game in rpg maker is virtually impossible. You might as well be trying to make an entirely new engine with the amount of work it would take. See here.
Sorry if I'm bursting any bubbles here. -
@Scythuz
Not bursting any bubbles at all :)
However I am positive that my feature will work. Like you said, its virtually impossible, but that doesn't mean that it is impossible! As long as my belief in my own abilities is strong then I am sure I will have this feature viewable within a few days and usable in just a months time :D -
If you find a way to do it without breaking into the source code/dll files (because that is illegal without special permission from degica themselves, seriously, don't do that) then I will be impressed. Just don't be too surprised if you can't.@Scythuz

The person who wrote the post I linked to is one of the best scripters/coders around and he couldn't do it. -
@Scythuz
I LOVE challenges and the one I am currently doing is pretty much my biggest challenge. Don't worry, everything I do is Always very legal. I think I can do this but if I can't then no harm done, but I am almost certain that what I am doing is possible :D !
Thanks for your support and help though. :) -
The idea is awesome. Maybe you thought of something no one else has. Good luck.
-
Thank you.
I think this idea should work, if not then back to the drawing board! This feature isn't just for me though - The whole world will get to enjoy this if it works out :D -
Miffy I really do wish you the best of luck with this project :)
And remember if you can't do it (which I hope you can!) it doesn't mean that you've failed its just means that you weren't ready to undertake that particular challenge! Good luck man! -
I don't want to be harsh or anything but more info would be greatly appreciated, how you're supposed to accomplish this? All I see here is excitement and not really details of any sort, also even LAN is pretty hard to implement in RM. As NeonBlack stated there, Multiplayer for RM is definitely possible but most likely a "NO", because it requires serious coding skills and it's also an huge amount of work even for a professional programmer. Everything is stated in the link that Scythuz posted, it's the official ACE FAQ on Steam.

@Dalph: I believe in my ability's and I am sure I will be able to pass this off. I don't really have any details at the moment, just wait until Sunday or Monday. I can't promise that I will finish this, like you said it is extremely difficult! But I don't give up - Ever. I will try this as hard as I possibly can and hopefully will succeed. If I don't, well I'll be a little disappointed but I won't be upset because I know I would have at least tried :)
If you have any more questions then please feel free to PM me Dalph.
P.S You weren't harsh at all Dalph. And I will be creating this feature through programming, that's all the info I can give at the moment. Pictures will come accordingly, as long as I don't encounter any problems. Work however is going to be slow now, tomorrow I'm of to see my ill gran because its her birthday and then I haver "personal" issues to solve (shudders now).
So I'll say goodbye now. PM me if you get anymore questions. See you all later...

Even if you fail at least you can say that you tried. I can't wait to see the pictures during this weekend or next week. Keep me informed :)

Miffy6000, this putting topics in the wrong place is becoming a bad habit. This area is for conversations, so advertising your in progress script and then asking for replies to be PM only is no good. I'm moving this to RGSSx Scripts In Development. If you are ever unsure where things go, reading the stickies should help you figure it out. It also helps to have a clear title, I would appreciate it if you edited yours to more clearly represent the subject. Thank you.
I'd be interested in a local multiplayer. Playing with my brothers was the best part of Secret of Mana and I would love to do that more often. My understanding was that it wasn't possible because of key bindings but if you find a way around that it should be very cool. -
Hello Sharm,
Um OK I am prepared to explain a little about this, though I must warn you when I try and explain things I do word it awkwardly so I apologise for anything which doesn't make sense :) Sorry!
(At this current moment in time I am creating a Multiplayer feature/script for RPG Maker Vx Ace. As I am programming it I have nothing to show of at the moment but please don't worry because on Sunday or Monday I will have some pictures of the Multiplayer in action. So please do stay tuned!!! :D )
Hope that made sense. So there you have it everyone, stay tuned and I will try and update with more news over the weekend. I won't update tomorrow because I have a big and sad day ahead of me!
I'm glad you like local multiplayer Sharm, because that's what I am currently creating it around!
Hopefully you and your brothers will like what I create :)
Kindest regards,
Miffy6000. -
Made sense to me. Like I said earlier, doesn't matter if you don't succeed. At least you tried it and if you fail, well, no harm done :p
Good luck Miffy.
