    So I'm having trouble figuring out if it is possible to get a script or any files from a game made in VX to a game made in Ace.

    It's be nice if someone  could tell me :3

    You can transfer any script you have in your VX folder to your VX Ace one.... but the script will be broken, as they use two different types of RGSS, VX is RGSS 2 (i think?) VX Ace is RGSS 3

    Okay. But I have the script and data/maps ect. in my Ace folder and it's not showing up at all. :/ Is there a way I can get it to show? Do you know if there is any converter?

    The only one you could transfer from VX to VXAce is the animation database

    You only need to rename the file extension from .rvdata to .rvdata2

    How do I do that? Sorry for all the questions. I'm still kind of new to RPG Maker :/

    Did you search for this first before you asked? It's been asked countless times.


    The database is not in the same format (particularly tilesets) and the scripts are different. So you can't just copy/paste from one to the other and expect them to work. There MAY be converters around that will convert SOME things. You will find them by searching. "SOME things" does not include scripts.

    Shaz: Well... Yes I did. And I couldn't find anything. :/

    GrandmaDeb: Yes~ Thanks! ^w^ Even though it doesn't convert scripts I'll figure something out :3

    I don't think there's any way to convert scripts automatically. You'll have to either look for conversions/ports that have already been done by others, see if there's another Ace script that does something similar (and then probably change your events accordingly if necessary), get someone to do the individual ports for you (there's a small chance, if you don't have too many), or find another way.
