#Rpg maker vx ace isometric free#
If you're unfamiliar with Tiled It's a free map editor, similar to the map editor in RPG Maker but with a lot more freedom and no restrictions on layers etc etc. The Tiled Plugin for MV is yet to be updated for use with the recent version of the engine so you'll have to use a previous version of MV if you wish to use it currently. I guess I wanted to know if it's viable to even consider isometric views using this engine, or is that a dream for a different decade?Īrcadian Atlas is made with Rpg Maker (MV?) I believe, in an isometric style, no idea how they've achieved this but I can only assume they've got a talented programmer that's coded a system for isometric tiles. That being said, I know I'll probably see the task as daunting and just stick to the classic birds-eye view the engine utilizes while I learn. I grew into RPG's around the time games like ff7, Thousand Arms and Saga Frontier were being introduced to the western world, and feel like this style would be more in line with my artistic outlook. I know that the engine isn't built for it. I'm just looking to learn as much as possible right now. I have an ambitious project that I want to vet, and was wondering if it's possible to create an entire game in isometric view? If so, would it be possible to make games akin to the art style of Saga Frontier 2 or even Thousand Arms, the difference being static backgrounds as opposed to a camera you can turn with buttons.Īgain, I know the project is ambitious. I need some help figuring out the capabilities of the program because I'm trying to map out everything before I get started. Either you'll have to learn to make the graphics yourself or, as I recommend above, just borrow graphics from around the Internet until your game has substance or at least a prototype that is convincing enough for an artist to join you on.I just started my dive into RPG Maker with little coding experience. Some spriting tools on steam could help you too, but honestly if you aren't an artist then there is no substitute for the skill and talent of an actual artist.
This sounds like it might be one of your first games, so I wouldn't focus on graphics from the start if that isn't your strong point.Īlso, I don't know if you actually looked at those links I've posted, but one of the forum discussions mentioned TileD [which you might want to look into if this will definitely be a 2D isometric world. You could also, maybe, try Marmoset Hexels to create isometric map assets - but maybe what you really need to do is build your game on borrowed art from around the Internet until your game has enough substance to convince an artist to help you build original graphics.
#Rpg maker vx ace isometric generator#
For one, none of the assets are design for isometrics, but secondly you would be better off using a character generator for RMMV anyways. I'm not sure I can recommend RPGMaker if all you wanted are the art assets. That's why I'm looking at this, any advice for spriting/making the models? I've tried gamemaker, but I have no way of making the sprites, nor animations. Originally posted by ◢ k r i s ◤:Not impossible, but I'd recommend looking into one of these other engines to be honest. You'll notice none of them resemble the games you mentioned in OP. That's not to say it's overpriced either, but it's only particularly good at a very limited type of game: the infamous "RPGMaker" tagged games you'll find on Steam. I have seen scrolling, top-down shooters and side-platformers and Visual Novels and even on-map projectiles - but the simple fact is the amount of reverse engineering you want to accomplish may make building your game from the ground up in another engine easier or just as difficult while giving you more flexibility.Īlso, the entry fee for RMMV is kinda pricey compared to the options above. The problem with using RMMV for this project is, while you could easily find plugins that enable diagonal travel and you could painstakenly create an isometric world using a non-isometric, map- editing grid, you would still need to rebuild the battle system to work "on-map" - which I'm not sure anyone has done successfully yet (I could be wrong about that, but I've only seen similar design interests turn to other solutions than RMMV). Not impossible, but I'd recommend looking into one of these other engines to be honest.Īlso, maybe Unity or Unreal Engine, depending on how much effort you are ready to dedicate to this project.
