Then, one day on a whim I thought of looking up RMXP, and was surprised to see it working on Steam. So I bought a new license, and was elated when it ran on Win10. So happy at the nostalgia! I'm going to try and finish this little game up and surprise some friends that had forgotten about it as well.
With a few 'hiccups' such as no Win32API support, Kyonides has his "Hidden Chest" executable project... an open-source replacement for Game.Exe that is 64-bit.
Still need to use the game editor, but the Exe works relatively fine for XP, VX and Ace.
That's awesome! I really love that XP is still getting love. So far the Steam version (and the new DLL files) appears to work, but once I get the game ready for my friends and it doesn't work for my beta tester, I'll give Hidden Chest a look!
