RPG Maker VX

RMVX

With enhancements to the scripting system developed in RPG Maker XP, this new version greatly improved the role playing game design world. Although the RPG Maker series has always been simple and easy to use, XP and VX added sophisticated features to give a developer total control over their game program. And as a result of recognizing the potential market value of translating their software, VX has been released in America for $60.

RPG Maker VX was the fifth in the RPG Maker software series, and includes a few differences over the XP version.

Changes From RPG Maker XP

• Updated Scripting To RGSS2
• More Limited Tile Sets
• Map Making Changes
• Pictures Limited To 20
• Automatic Shadows

RPG Maker VX features a similar map making interface to previous versions, with some updates. There are now 5 tilesets available, but only two layers in the game. Drawing with tileset 'A' draws on the first layer, while tilesets 'B' though 'E' affect the second layer.
