THE RPG CENTRAL ARCHIVE'S
SCRIPTS AND PLUGINS
FOR THE RPGMAKER ENGINE SERIES
HAS BEEN FILLED!
Indeed, more than 1500 thread have been created, hundreds of RPGMaker MV and MZ plugins have been secured, over a thousand RPGMaker VXAce and even some RPGMaker VX scripts have been saved. The ability to create MMORPGs with RPGMaker VXAce and RPGMaker MV is possible.
Material under dl.dropbox, a number of dropbox sites, and the like have sadly vanished. Graphics stored at Imageshack, and Pu.shu are gone. And links that relied upon AdFly styled monetization are now very much broken and cannot be salvaged. However, there is a lot that have been restored.
However... even those scripts that were within RPG Maker Central's "Lost Scripts" thread have even been given their own topics, a sensible decision so one could perform a search by title.
And all of the scripts and plugins have banner headings stating that they are unequivocally Archived content, and they all show the original author of the threads.
There are two pieces of software currently NOT uploaded, that because one script author is an active member of the forum. And this member, who does visit and has visited recently, does not have these three scripts from his expansive library within our main Scripts Database. He has been contacted regarding these three to determine if he wished to post them himself, or have them within the Archive.
Meanwhile, a later and admittedly arduous set of tasks await.
RPG Maker Central formerly went under the name RPGMakerVXAce.net. And some content that existed on their forum prior to the name change did not survive the transition. If it is possible, the content under the RMVXAce.net banner will also be archived within that board.
For the newly archived code, the timestamps for their threads have not been updated. Sifting through and correcting the initial date of the threads will take time, but will be corrected if possible.
And lastly, the resource board for all audio and graphic content released needs to be populated in order to restore their access to any and all users.
Thank you, and enjoy.
