DEMO ISSUES? JUST DO THIS.
Not everyone uses the same version of RPGMaker XP (or the like). Some demonstration packages were made with RPGMaker XP version 1.02, some with RPGMaker XP 1.04, or perhaps a Japanese edition instead of your English edition (or visa versa).
If you are finding that the demo you are trying to use is giving you issues, just do a simple bit of an edit.
STEP 1: Look at your own system's game.ini file. It may read like this:
Quote:[Game]
Library=RGSS104E.dll
Scripts=Data\Scripts.rxdata
Title=MyStupidProject
RTP1=Standard
RTP2=
RTP3=
And then look at the Game.Ini of the one giving you problems. It may look like this:
Quote:[Game]
Library=RGSS100J.dll
Scripts=Data\Scripts.rxdata
Title=私の愚かなプロジェクト
RTP1=Standard
RTP2=
RTP3=
The problem is not the title (which is 'MyStupidProject' in Japanese), but the library which is why I altered the file's color in the quotes. The demo is trying to use a .DLL file which you do not have. And very likely, you need to do a little replacing. That is.... if the demo does 'not' include the so-mentioned .dll file in the project's ROOT directory.
Having the DLL in the same folder as the Game.exe would alleviate the issues. It is also necessary if it is to be playable on PCs without RPGMaker installed.
FIXING IT
It will require a bit of an edit to make the demo work for you if it is using a different VERSION of RPGMaker than what you have installed. This is not hard.
Change/Edit the offending INI file to use the DLL file which is in YOUR system, so it looks like this:
Quote:[Game]
Library=RGSS104E.dll
Scripts=Data\Scripts.rxdata
Title=私の愚かなプロジェクト
RTP1=Standard
RTP2=
RTP3=
(Some people may be using RGSS105E.dll if a newer one than mine is available.)
And then replace the Game.exe and Game.rxproj files in the offending demo with the ones you use. The Game.exe file is attuned to the .dll file it requires, so just editing the .ini file isn't enough.
So with all that done, the demo will now be set up to use your .dll file and RPGMaker XP system
This should also cover differences in any updated versions of RPGMaker VX and/or VXAce.
