Introduction

This scriptlet allows you to set custom enemy defeated messages.

Just leave a note in the DB Enemy's notebox:
Code:
<defeat> cried out loud!</defeat>

WARNING: The string should always begin with an empty space.

It will display the message without the <defeat> tags on screen.

By default the scriptlet uses the Battle Log here known as :log .
You can set it to :window to display the message window instead.

And you can call it to change the current display mode ingame!

Code:
EnemySlain.message_mode = :log
EnemySlain.message_mode = :window

Welcome dear readers to the latest issue of the Weekly Gazette! Here in the Gazette, we give you the news in brief of what occurred in the past week as well as provide any news happening in Save-Point itself

General Chat
When it comes to Iran, take your choice of what articles to read within the News of the World, whether it be IRGC targeting US vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, Israel's targeting Hezbollah leaders in reprisal to missile attacks coming from Lebanon followed by Iran's declared for Support for Hezbollah and Iran's subequent missile salvos targeting Israel this weekend. On an odd note, Democrats shot down a resolution by fellow Congresswoman Tlaib over Lebanon where the US is not even engaged.

Russia again launched attacks on Ukraine, either in major cities or striking nuclear storage facilities near Chernobyl. Russia's President Puten rebuffed Ukraine Zelensky's call for a meeting for a ceasefire as Putin seeks all invasion goals while Ukraine drones cripple more Russian infrastructure. And despite Russia's own experts calling the invasion a lost cause, propaganda is convincing young Russians to still sign up. Meanwhile, France intercepted another Shadow Fleet Tanker linked to Russian Oil, and an underwater drones exploded at a Romanian Black Sea port not one week after Russian drones previously caused damage in Romania.

China, in an attempt to claim more and more territory, sent a flotilla of warships to waters east of Taiwan ahead of talks between Japan and the Phillippines over ensured and recognized maritime boundaries. In an move to ellicit a reaction, China sent a vessel four miles off the Pratas Islands that Taiwan claims as their own. Meanwhile, new concerns are building in Manila that China is building a base in the disputed reefs of the Scarborough Shoal's lagoon. As towards China's claim of Japan militarizing, that claim has been rebuked as Defense Minister Shinjirō Koizumi countered that all their defense is open, and still carry no nuclear arsenal nor bombers. The US asked their partners in the South Pacific to increase defense spending to help build a front line of defence while creating a stronger intelligence sharing platform. And Taiwan is still set to purchase the US's $14 Billion arms package.

To quote Chris Tucker in Rush Hour, "Follow the Rich White Man". That is exactly what is happening in the United States as the Department Of Justice indictment of the SPLC showed the organization funded $4 million to the KKK, even for crosses to burn. And following all the fraud arrests by the DOJ, Minnesota's DHS began shut down of over 3,400 fraudulent Medicare providers. In elections, Graham Platner's accuser Lindsey Fifield gave an interview to the NY Times, but slammed the published story as having intentionally removed all claims from other women over rape charges. And Mamdani's campaign guru is now under fire for the bullying tactics he applied to Platner campaign staffer Genevieve McDonald over the sexting scandal. Meanwhile, the count is underway in California for both the Governor's house and the race for Mayor Karen Bass's seat. However, Election interference reigns as a voting site was vandalized and burned mail-in ballots were found in a drop box. Even as a terror suspect who threatened to kill Ivanka Trump and plotted to blow up a synagogue in New York City, a Navy Sailor was just caught in an ISIS plot to kill special forces troops with drones and grenades.

Violence erupted in Europe, with six stabbed at the Arsenal's Premier League Victory Parade only hours after celebrations in Paris for PSG’s Champions League turned the Champs Élysées into a Fortnite map. However, there were miraculous discoveries as an ancient sanctuary was revealed by construction crews in Italy. And two hobbyist treasure hunters uncover the largest Viking Coin hoard just outside of Elverum in Southeast Norway. On the otherhand, Mexican authorities found a massive tunnel network that ran from Tijuana into the United States.

The suspected Hamas terrorist busted for plot to bomb an Israeli cruise line, another $3.5Billion signed off for California's decades old high-speed rail project, the Australian "ISIS Bride" renouncing the Islamic State in court following her arrest, the loss of US Actor James Handy (Top Gun: Maverick, Jumanji, NCIS) and London's Anthony Head (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Merlin, Apple TV's Ted Lasso), and more hit this week's news.

The abuse and dangers of Artificial Intelligence led most of the News of the Cyber World, be it the British lawsuit against GrokAI over fake sexualized images, UC Berkeley students caught using AI to cheat on take-home exams and flunking, Amazon blasted by their own engineers for layoffs in favor of AI, political and election data given by AI found to be 90% wrong be it by bias or foreign interference, and AI endangering social life with chatbot simulated dates. Concerns over facial recognition hit Meta when it was found that Facial Recognition content was in their smart glasses, and many think that system upgrades are designed to actively make devices obsolete and force customers to buy the new. And another case of a child predator targeting underage players on Roblox also hit this week's news along with much, much more.

For Remi-chan, the continued work on Fantasia is What's up in RMing, and she just finished her work to prevent her custom menu system from engaging when certain events are taking place, though she admits the safeguard might not be added everywhere. And with recent sprites and artwork she's received, she has been filling her world with more NPCs. And in regards of spritework, she received a new chunky sprite of Yasondre, the mother of her three herones, and a couple of canines from Xiie (aka Rune).

After receiving the doggo sprites from Xiie, Remi-chan took some time to replace the stock graphics and posted new shots of the pooches within theMaps and Screenshots Thread, the first a refugee from his home world while the second involved in deep conversation. After that, she shared some family time and then how she's updating shots and filling her world with more NPCs.

It hasn't been long since the release of Rave Heart+, the updated version of Rave Heart now published by Moz the Tiger, only for a new Let's Play has appeared. The Sisters from All Ages of Geeks have taken a look and are entranced as they watch Klein go through a new practise mission while throwing some quips at the elder officer in charge.

Just as a woman now greets a nameless assassin, we are greeted by some information about Memorie by KDC. He was able to retrieve maps from a previous build and the rework of the contents is going smoothly. The woman within the screenshot he provided is the character you play, the mother of another within the story and one who has no idea what to do with all of the problems that have amassed.

An old classic has returned as DerVVulfman posted the last version of the famous XRXS_MP 6. Ring Menu Implementation script, noting the name of the author as Kazuki and that the original edition also included graphics work by Ouga Zaitou. For those who have used the western translations that were originally prominent at Creation Asylum, there are some subtle differences except in the base mechanics.

Based upon the XRXS original by Kazuki, DerVVulfman released Ring Menu Advanced, his rendition of the XRXS Ring Menu. A major change from the original; along with placing all editable values within a single module, he included a means to change and even increase the number of main menu options beyond the base six from the default menu. He later returned to update after discovery of an issue when returning from a prior menu such as Skill or Save, DerVVulfman updated the Ring Menu script with error preventing code and released a patch to allow for more accurate menu returns.

Once more has the forum entered the wastelands of sand as two more works appeared among the Various RMXP sprites by Ace_V. As requested by kyonides, two more versions of the Desert Dweller from last week has come, the first giving a look of suspicion across his face while the second similar but brandishing a small protective blade.

Music and Audio
The music halls remain silent, waiting for her to step forward onto stage. This week, in keeping with her theme of blood and childhood stolen by undeath, Remi-Chan Sings As Best She Can!. Entitled "Take Up Your Brush, and Paint the World", Remi uses reverb and phaser voice effects for an otherworldy sound as a slow plodding melody with death sighs is replaced with more kinetic refrains.


Art and Design
The Museum of art within our forum has its gallry for Remi-chan's Neato Arty thread thing! wide open as a new presentation has appeared. It is a simple before and after, a birth and rebirth if you will, of a character from Remi-Chan's recent endeavor. A maiden slain in her youth, cursed in her childhood, and burdened with a thirst. Garbed in scarlet as she leaves a trail of crimson in her wake, she reaches her arms out for embrace, an embrace from which which no one would return. Created just this past May, it too was one of the brisk renders she had created.with a speed draw that didn't last even ten minutes, a speed draw with vocals by the character's own vocal artist.


Literature
Within the new pages of Remi-chan's Writing Snippets~, a tale of tragedy appears, a tragedy that had brought forth venegeance and blood. A young girl who was at death's doorstep, one whose time it was to cross, was now thrust into violence against the physicians who threw accusations to her father. And with undeath anew, there would be blood.



Well, that's it for this week.

Welcome dear readers to the latest issue of the Weekly Gazette! Here in the Gazette, we give you the news in brief of what occurred in the past week as well as provide any news happening in Save-Point itself

General Chat
When it comes to Iran, take your choice of what articles to read within the News of the World, whether it be IRGC targeting US vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, Israel's targeting Hezbollah leaders in reprisal to missile attacks coming from Lebanon followed by Iran's declared for Support for Hezbollah and Iran's subequent missile salvos targeting Israel this weekend. On an odd note, Democrats shot down a resolution by fellow Congresswoman Tlaib over Lebanon where the US is not even engaged.

Russia again launched attacks on Ukraine, either in major cities or striking nuclear storage facilities near Chernobyl. Russia's President Puten rebuffed Ukraine Zelensky's call for a meeting for a ceasefire as Putin seeks all invasion goals while Ukraine drones cripple more Russian infrastructure. And despite Russia's own experts calling the invasion a lost cause, propaganda is convincing young Russians to still sign up. Meanwhile, France intercepted another Shadow Fleet Tanker linked to Russian Oil, and an underwater drones exploded at a Romanian Black Sea port not one week after Russian drones previously caused damage in Romania.

China, in an attempt to claim more and more territory, sent a flotilla of warships to waters east of Taiwan ahead of talks between Japan and the Phillippines over ensured and recognized maritime boundaries. In an move to ellicit a reaction, China sent a vessel four miles off the Pratas Islands that Taiwan claims as their own. Meanwhile, new concerns are building in Manila that China is building a base in the disputed reefs of the Scarborough Shoal's lagoon. As towards China's claim of Japan militarizing, that claim has been rebuked as Defense Minister Shinjirō Koizumi countered that all their defense is open, and still carry no nuclear arsenal nor bombers. The US asked their partners in the South Pacific to increase defense spending to help build a front line of defence while creating a stronger intelligence sharing platform. And Taiwan is still set to purchase the US's $14 Billion arms package.

To quote Chris Tucker in Rush Hour, "Follow the Rich White Man". That is exactly what is happening in the United States as the Department Of Justice indictment of the SPLC showed the organization funded $4 million to the KKK, even for crosses to burn. And following all the fraud arrests by the DOJ, Minnesota's DHS began shut down of over 3,400 fraudulent Medicare providers. In elections, Graham Platner's accuser Lindsey Fifield gave an interview to the NY Times, but slammed the published story as having intentionally removed all claims from other women over rape charges. And Mamdani's campaign guru is now under fire for the bullying tactics he applied to Platner campaign staffer Genevieve McDonald over the sexting scandal. Meanwhile, the count is underway in California for both the Governor's house and the race for Mayor Karen Bass's seat. However, Election interference reigns as a voting site was vandalized and burned mail-in ballots were found in a drop box. Even as a terror suspect who threatened to kill Ivanka Trump and plotted to blow up a synagogue in New York City, a Navy Sailor was just caught in an ISIS plot to kill special forces troops with drones and grenades.

Violence erupted in Europe, with six stabbed at the Arsenal's Premier League Victory Parade only hours after celebrations in Paris for PSG’s Champions League turned the Champs Élysées into a Fortnite map. However, there were miraculous discoveries as an ancient sanctuary was revealed by construction crews in Italy. And two hobbyist treasure hunters uncover the largest Viking Coin hoard just outside of Elverum in Southeast Norway. On the otherhand, Mexican authorities found a massive tunnel network that ran from Tijuana into the United States.

The suspected Hamas terrorist busted for plot to bomb an Israeli cruise line, another $3.5Billion signed off for California's decades old high-speed rail project, the Australian "ISIS Bride" renouncing the Islamic State in court following her arrest, the loss of US Actor James Handy (Top Gun: Maverick, Jumanji, NCIS) and London's Anthony Head (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Merlin, Apple TV's Ted Lasso), and more hit this week's news.

by Kazuki (2007)
Version: 1.1


Introduction

This is another Ring Menu based upon the classic. But with new options:



Features
  • All editable options now in a single configuration page
  • Customize the speed, size and options in the ring menu
  • Able to add and/or remove menu options by configuration
  • Flexible menu system that can begin with even 0(zero) options shown
  • Able to execute/switch-to custom scenes or common events
  • Able to use either the original or Dubealex-styled status window
  • Able to enable/disable a gold window, either XRXS or Dubealex-styled
  • Able to enable/disable a Dubealex-styled location window
  • Set the font, windowskin and opacity levels of most any window

  • BONUS: The Targeted Return Patch included



Screenshots

Yep... this time



Demo

Here it is! A Box.Com Link



Instructions

Completely within the demo. The header page is dedicated to the instructions while compact instructions are in the configuration page.



FAQ

Believe it or not, I had this working with game windows larger than 640x480.
I also added a nice and sporty little NOT/CANCEL icon. Took like... 2 minutes to sprite?



Compatibility

This will overwrite Scene_Menu. And it uses its own Window_MenuStatus code. So add-ons that affect the window in the main menu showing the party won't function.



Credits and Thanks

My thanks to Kazuki who created the original version of the Ring Menu. Thanks to Dubealex for the Location and Gold windows, and the center forced Menu command display. And thanks to Ouga Zaitou who provided some bitmap content for Kazuki's original work.



Terms and Conditions

Though Kazuki ended support for the Ring Menu nearly two decades ago, actively placing this within an actual 'abandoned' script list, I ask for due credit for myself, Kazuki and Ouga Zaitou.]]> Ring Menu Advanced

Yes, the creator's name is Kazuki, NOT XRXS

Introduction

For years, I've seen the XRXS Ring Menu with additions by Dubealex and others.  But never a pure version of the original version. So I decided to use my lycanthropic werewolf hunting skills to track down a pure version untouched by western editors.

And here it is.



Features
  • Its a RING menu
  • Contains a compact actor menu when selecting choices like Equip or Skill
  • Able to customize the icons



Script

I am providing BOTH the original version 1.2 (circa 2007 which Kazuki stated was abandoned) and an English version thanks to an hour's worth of wolfish translation.

Japanese Original Version
English Translated Version



Instructions

From the translation:
  • Please install "XRXL 2. Bitmap/Icon Rendering" beforehand.
  • Copy this script into a new section created above the Main section.
  • Inside the double quotas (`""`) of the sevenRPG::Cache.icon("") entries located at the top of `Window_RingMenu, enter the icon for each command.
    • Follow as they are described in the comments to the right.
    • The "Disabled" icon at the bottom is an icon that overlays atop the menu icons that cannot be selected. Recommended is something like: φ
  • Inside the "" of the TSE_STARTUP value, place the sound effect that you want to sound when the menu opens

Welcome dear readers to the latest issue of the Weekly Gazette! Here in the Gazette, we give you the news in brief of what occurred in the past week as well as provide any news happening in Save-Point itself

General Chat
Will there be a peace deal with Iran turning over all their nuclear material while ensuring the Strait of Hormuz is not mined? That is one of the questions asked in this week's News of the World. The US offered two paths towards peace, one even allowing Iran to heavily dilute their nuclear stockpiles. Howver, the US had to fire upon missile bases and fast boats attempting to once more establish mines in the Strait.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine is taking its toll, this while a senior Kyiv commander suggested that the next six months will be vital to shred Moscow's ambitions while Russian troops are exhausted. Its toll may also be taking its toll on Russia's President Vladimir Putin as rumors of stand-ins during public appearances re-emerge when a fellow politician used another name when addressing the President. Ukraine's President Zelensky put out a request for more Patriot anti-missile batteries as he foresees more attacks in coming months, this just as roughly 300 more drones were sailed during a thunderous Russian air attack killing five civilians and wounding fourty more. But chaotic as Russia's attacks have been, Moscow has been constantly endangering neighboring NATO nations, now actively striking an apartment building in Romania. It was only late April that fragments of a Russian Drone were recovered in Moldavia after damaging a utility pole and part of a residencial building.

In the US, 50,000 residents had to evacuate an area near a chemical plant in Orange County, California. US President Trump declared a Federal Emergency as there was a threat of a catastrophic explosion, though the Orange County Fire Authority states the threat of explosion has been eliminated, eliminated as a crack in the tank appeared relieving the massive pressure buildup. The EPA is currently in Orange County, providing air monitoring support. Though they haven't found anything in the residential areas, monitoring continues while they have closed roads leading up to the plant. The war against fraud continues as two in Minnesota, Shamso Ahmed Hassan and Hanaan Mursal Yusuf, both of Somalian heritage, were arrested for more than $21 Million in theft of funds meant for Autism services. And for Democrats, the situation must be horrid when CNN itself blasts former First-Lady Jill Biden over her complete reversal of comments she made about her husband, Former President Biden and his health concerns. It is not just Graham Platner taking heat over the comments and his mass-deleted Reddit posts that insulted a Purple Heart recipient, but now Democrats Warren, Schumer, Sanders and Jeffries supporting Platner are being torn into.

China is attempting to exert pressure in the pacific, restricting rare earth minerals to Japan in an attempt to halt the U.S. from supplying defense technology to Japan and to Taiwan which is required by the 1979 Taiwan Relations Act. China released video of a NATO warship from the Netherlands threatened by two CCP warships and a fighter in what the Dutch Frigate stated were international waters, yet China asserts as their territory as they continue to claim much of the South China sea including waters of other nearby nations. And in a response to China's encroachment, the US, the UK and Australia have unveiled a new joint project to develop advanced underwater drones as Chinese-linked vessels have been linked to incidents involving damaged undersea cables near Taiwan and in European waters.

The Global emergency of Congo's Ebola outbreak complicated by militant groups vying for power and arson of treatment centers, Germany's taxpayer money given to charities tied to Islamic Relief Worldwide classified as a terror group in 2014 and the Muslim Brotherhood, the New York City man hired by the Iranian Regime sentenced for 10 years in a murder-for-hire plot to kill a human rights activist and journalist, $26 Billion spent in Vladimir Putin's mission to live forever with 3D printed organ transplants, The bill going through the US House of Representatives requiring only native-born US citizens be members of congress, as others may actively have allegiance to their native borne lands, and more hit this week's news.

For those wondering What's up among fellow RMers, Remi-chan has been touching up the text in her game, working throughout the 1st non-tutorial arc of her game, though has to contend with events that take place in and after the city of Brisbane. However, she also worked dilligently to finish the update to all the message popups since she overhauled the icons in play.

Remi-chan ventured into the Maps and screenshots thread to post scenes that have since been updated for her game, be they warnings not to go boom near aggregiously placed petrol pumps, looks of apprehension given to mere watercoolers, and remembrances of godly heal potions.


Upcoming Projects
Though it is the twilight of spring, romance still blooms. So hearken all to the world crafted by TsunamiJuria and her dark romance that is Haunted Divinity. Haunted Divinity is a visual novel that tells the tale of a fallen god and the novelist who found each other against all odds. With artwork and character designs by TsunamiJuria, Vespa and krisisnotcover, music by zachjohnfriesen and Jake 'The Voice' Parr, this first visual novel demo lasting 45 minutes is a solid way to end the season.

It has been a while since kyondes worked upon Klans XP, but his venture into creating a kingdom-building strategy game now improved the scouting system. Coupled with a new means to transfer between maps and updates to allow animations hovering atop controleld NPCs, kyonides also worked out bugs that prevented clan data from being recorded.

Tools
Another game design system has shown up, and not one by Enterbrain as it is surprisingly free to use unless you wish to actively go commercial. It is called RPG Paper Maker and this system supports Windows, Linux, and macOS. Even moreso, this system utilizes JavaScript for plugins and from all aspects supports 3D styled constructs. The forums accessible at their website shows gemeral introductions dating as far back as November 2022, preceding RPG Maker Unity by a year. And yet is ahead of the next iteration RPGMaker u2u with map rotation.


Scripts Database
RPGMaker XP (RGSS) Engine
If you are tired of using the default system to dictate what elements the members of your party have affinity with, kyonides released KustomElemState XP which lets developers create a means to add elements and state ranks independently.

A revision of a two-decades-old script has appeared with Reserve Party Tools. Originally by RPG Advocate, the script allowed the player to swap their party members with a reserve roster of heroes, even allowing them to gain some percentage of experience points from battles they're not a part. However, much of the script contained massive rewrites to the default scripts. DerVVulfman's re-released edition worked to limit the number of rewritten scripts while performing some repairs or eliminating some issues.

After discovering that the engine has always held this capability, DerVVulfman wrote MUSIC EFFECT FADE, a small script that allows one to set a fade-out effect for melodies normally associated with battle victories, triggered treasure discoveries and the like. Useful if one has a longer-than-normal tune in use.

It was three years ago when kyonides released Skill Roulette XP, a system that could let a magic user cast a spell at random. But now he has returned, and his virtual Wild-Magic-like system now adds a new available feature. Random skills may now be available based upon the user's level.

Having populated the city streets with criminals brazen enough to show their faces, the Various RMXP sprites by Ace_V now appears focused upon drier climates, sand swept lands and the deep desert. In earthen colors accented by white and a turban to protect his head, the first of Ace_V's desert nomads has appeared.

Another presentation has been announced within Save-Point's Museum of Art and once more the gallery dedicated to Remi-chan's Neato Arty thread thing! has its doors flung wide. On display this week, a young girl beset against land and sky, both alien to her and yet still that of her home. The aptly named Lass of Steel is but a child, her lore describing this maiden with flowing locks of chocolate as not even a teenager and yet one who had put aside her own turmoil to give aid to those in need. Emerald eyes filled with heartache cannot hide behind her glasses. This was another of the quick-paced illustrations by Remi-chan, taking but half the time she usually spends, and a speed-draw less than 6 minutes demonstrates such.


Literature
Quiet is the forum's museum where tomes old and new may be discovered. Yet only this week, a new verse has been published and placed among Remi-chan's Writing Snippets~. A child, not even in her teenage years, had known responcibilities for as long as she can remember. No mother nor father of her own, it was she who had to have the strength of parents to those younger than herself until what she thought was the end of days. But when the end of days indeed arrived, what came of her resolve?



Well, that's it for this week.

Welcome dear readers to the latest issue of the Weekly Gazette! Here in the Gazette, we give you the news in brief of what occurred in the past week as well as provide any news happening in Save-Point itself

Official Area
General Chat
Will there be a peace deal with Iran turning over all their nuclear material while ensuring the Strait of Hormuz is not mined? That is one of the questions asked in this week's News of the World. The US offered two paths towards peace, one even allowing Iran to heavily dilute their nuclear stockpiles. Howver, the US had to fire upon missile bases and fast boats attempting to once more establish mines in the Strait.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine is taking its toll, this while a senior Kyiv commander suggested that the next six months will be vital to shred Moscow's ambitions while Russian troops are exhausted. Its toll may also be taking its toll on Russia's President Vladimir Putin as rumors of stand-ins during public appearances re-emerge when a fellow politician used another name when addressing the President. Ukraine's President Zelensky put out a request for more Patriot anti-missile batteries as he foresees more attacks in coming months, this just as roughly 300 more drones were sailed during a thunderous Russian air attack killing five civilians and wounding fourty more. But chaotic as Russia's attacks have been, Moscow has been constantly endangering neighboring NATO nations, now actively striking an apartment building in Romania. It was only late April that fragments of a Russian Drone were recovered in Moldavia after damaging a utility pole and part of a residencial building.

In the US, 50,000 residents had to evacuate an area near a chemical plant in Orange County, California. US President Trump declared a Federal Emergency as there was a threat of a catastrophic explosion, though the Orange County Fire Authority states the threat of explosion has been eliminated, eliminated as a crack in the tank appeared relieving the massive pressure buildup. The EPA is currently in Orange County, providing air monitoring support. Though they haven't found anything in the residential areas, monitoring continues while they have closed roads leading up to the plant. The war against fraud continues as two in Minnesota, Shamso Ahmed Hassan and Hanaan Mursal Yusuf, both of Somalian heritage, were arrested for more than $21 Million in theft of funds meant for Autism services. And for Democrats, the situation must be horrid when CNN itself blasts former First-Lady Jill Biden over her complete reversal of comments she made about her husband, Former President Biden and his health concerns. It is not just Graham Platner taking heat over the comments and his mass-deleted Reddit posts that insulted a Purple Heart recipient, but now Democrats Warren, Schumer, Sanders and Jeffries supporting Platner are being torn into.

China is attempting to exert pressure in the pacific, restricting rare earth minerals to Japan in an attempt to halt the U.S. from supplying defense technology to Japan and to Taiwan which is required by the 1979 Taiwan Relations Act. China released video of a NATO warship from the Netherlands threatened by two CCP warships and a fighter in what the Dutch Frigate stated were international waters, yet China asserts as their territory as they continue to claim much of the South China sea including waters of other nearby nations. And in a response to China's encroachment, the US, the UK and Australia have unveiled a new joint project to develop advanced underwater drones as Chinese-linked vessels have been linked to incidents involving damaged undersea cables near Taiwan and in European waters.

The Global emergency of Congo's Ebola outbreak complicated by militant groups vying for power and arson of treatment centers, Germany's taxpayer money given to charities tied to Islamic Relief Worldwide classified as a terror group in 2014 and the Muslim Brotherhood, the New York City man hired by the Iranian Regime sentenced for 10 years in a murder-for-hire plot to kill a human rights activist and journalist, $26 Billion spent in Vladimir Putin's mission to live forever with 3D printed organ transplants, The bill going through the US House of Representatives requiring only native-born US citizens be members of congress, as others may actively have allegiance to their native borne lands, and more hit this week's news.

Games Development
Development Discussion
For those wondering What's up among fellow RMers, Remi-chan has been touching up the text in her game, working throughout the 1st non-tutorial arc of her game, though has to contend with events that take place in and after the city of Brisbane. However, she also worked dilligently to finish the update to all the message popups since she overhauled the icons in play.

Remi-chan ventured into the Maps and screenshots thread to post scenes that have since been updated for her game, be they warnings not to go boom near aggregiously placed petrol pumps, looks of apprehension given to mere watercoolers, and remembrances of godly heal potions.


Upcoming Projects
Though it is the twilight of spring, romance still blooms. So hearken all to the world crafted by TsunamiJuria and her dark romance that is Haunted Divinity. Haunted Divinity is a visual novel that tells the tale of a fallen god and the novelist who found each other against all odds. With artwork and character designs by TsunamiJuria, Vespa and krisisnotcover, music by zachjohnfriesen and Jake 'The Voice' Parr, this first visual novel demo lasting 45 minutes is a solid way to end the season.

It has been a while since kyondes worked upon Klans XP, but his venture into creating a kingdom-building strategy game now improved the scouting system. Coupled with a new means to transfer between maps and updates to allow animations hovering atop controleld NPCs, kyonides also worked out bugs that prevented clan data from being recorded.



Material Development
Tools
Another game design system has shown up, and not one by Enterbrain as it is surprisingly free to use unless you wish to actively go commercial. It is called RPG Paper Maker and this system supports Windows, Linux, and macOS. Even moreso, this system utilizes JavaScript for plugins and from all aspects supports 3D styled constructs. The forums accessible at their website shows gemeral introductions dating as far back as November 2022, preceding RPG Maker Unity by a year. And yet is ahead of the next iteration RPGMaker u2u with map rotation.


Scripts Database
RPGMaker XP (RGSS) Engine
If you are tired of using the default system to dictate what elements the members of your party have affinity with, kyonides released KustomElemState XP which lets developers create a means to add elements and state ranks independently.

A revision of a two-decades-old script has appeared with Reserve Party Tools. Originally by RPG Advocate, the script allowed the player to swap their party members with a reserve roster of heroes, even allowing them to gain some percentage of experience points from battles they're not a part. However, much of the script contained massive rewrites to the default scripts. DerVVulfman's re-released edition worked to limit the number of rewritten scripts while performing some repairs or eliminating some issues.

After discovering that the engine has always held this capability, DerVVulfman wrote MUSIC EFFECT FADE, a small script that allows one to set a fade-out effect for melodies normally associated with battle victories, triggered treasure discoveries and the like. Useful if one has a longer-than-normal tune in use.

It was three years ago when kyonides released Skill Roulette XP, a system that could let a magic user cast a spell at random. But now he has returned, and his virtual Wild-Magic-like system now adds a new available feature. Random skills may now be available based upon the user's level.


Resources Database
2D Resources
Having populated the city streets with criminals brazen enough to show their faces, the Various RMXP sprites by Ace_V now appears focused upon drier climates, sand swept lands and the deep desert. In earthen colors accented by white and a turban to protect his head, the first of Ace_V's desert nomads has appeared.



Creativity Section
Art and Design
Another presentation has been announced within Save-Point's Museum of Art and once more the gallery dedicated to Remi-chan's Neato Arty thread thing! has its doors flung wide. On display this week, a young girl beset against land and sky, both alien to her and yet still that of her home. The aptly named Lass of Steel is but a child, her lore describing this maiden with flowing locks of chocolate as not even a teenager and yet one who had put aside her own turmoil to give aid to those in need. Emerald eyes filled with heartache cannot hide behind her glasses. This was another of the quick-paced illustrations by Remi-chan, taking but half the time she usually spends, and a speed-draw less than 6 minutes demonstrates such.


Literature
Quiet is the forum's museum where tomes old and new may be discovered. Yet only this week, a new verse has been published and placed among Remi-chan's Writing Snippets~. A child, not even in her teenage years, had known responcibilities for as long as she can remember. No mother nor father of her own, it was she who had to have the strength of parents to those younger than herself until what she thought was the end of days. But when the end of days indeed arrived, what came of her resolve?



Well, that's it for this week.

Making 3D games is too hard? RPG Paper Maker will simplify your work

[Image: town-desert.png]

RPG Paper Maker is a game engine, free for non-commercial use, that allows you to create a 3D universe with many 2D sprites and even 3D objects using a simple interface. It is available on all major platforms: Windows, Linux, and macOS.

RPG Paper Maker gives you a way to create RPGs in a full 3D world as easily as in 2D! It also comes packed with cool retro-inspired graphic assets for you to use in your own projects.



Multiple types of games

[Image: battle.png]

The engine is mainly tailored for J-RPGs, but you can create almost any type of game, such as Action RPGs and Tactical RPGs (plugin coming soon).



Designed for beginners...

[Image: dungeon.png]

Our philosophy is simple: enabling you to create a 3D video game without any knowledge of:
  • Programming
  • 3D modeling
  • Pixel art
The user-friendly interface lets you build your game without worrying about complex details.



...and for experienced users!

If you have knowledge in programming and/or modeling, we've got you covered. You will be able to:
  • Create or modify JavaScript plugins
  • Import your own 3D models in .obj format
Combining your skills with RPG Paper Maker can make your games even more unique!


Have fun with the 3D map editor

[Image: map-editor.png]

Manage your 3D maps the same way you would in 2D games! This includes: floors, autotiles, sprites (fixed, face, double, quadra), walls, mountains, 3D objects, and objects (NPCs, chests, etc.).

Check out the basics here: Map Editor Guide



Play with the objects & events system

[Image: objects-events.png]

You can use the event system by adding objects to your maps that interact with others. Common examples include NPCs, chests, treasures, and doors.

Your hero is also an object, so you can customize how they react to the environment and player inputs.

Check out the guide here: Objects & Events Guide



Manage collisions easily

[Image: collisions.png]

Collisions are easy to manage because they work similarly to 2D assets. Your 2D drawings are automatically converted into 3D bounding boxes.

Check out the guide here: Tilesets & Collisions Guide



Control the camera

Version: 1.0

Introduction

This simple scriptette takes advantage of a feature built into RPGMaker's built-in Audio module,  and allows you to  fade out music events  in much the same way as you could background music and ambient sound effects.

Indeed, no alteration was made to the Audio class.  However, this feature has always  been available  despite no method  defined for it  within the Game_System class nor any map event akin to [Fade Out BGM] or the like.



Script

I can't believe EnterBrain neglected to include THIS



Instructions

Just paste this below Scene_Debug and above Main.  And use either script command noted in the script to fade out the music event effect.


Compatibility

ABSOLUTELY NO INCOMPATABILITIES!  I don't think anyone noticed this.



Author's Notes

WHY HAD NO ONE NOTICED THIS!?!?  Head-desk Thud



Terms and Conditions

Yell at Enterbrainless for not including this in the base system even though I did no alteration to the Audio class itself.  THEY HAD THIS FEATURE POSSIBLE ALL THESE YEARS!!!]]> MUSIC EFFECT FADE

Haunted Divinity is a narrative-driven visual novel centered on Venarok, a fallen god of poison and knowledge long feared for the monsters born of his sorrow.

Secluded within a sanctum woven from venom and memory, Venarok has long abandoned mortal affairs—until an unexpected connection draws him back into a world he no longer understands. Through choice-driven storytelling, you will shape how he responds to intimacy, vulnerability, and the quiet pull of change.
