Hi! I'm trying to emulate RPGMaker2000 games using Lua for the prototype... So, what's better than LOVE? Currently i wrote a .lmu reading algorithm and now i can view rpgmaker 2000 map files! Next step: the database! Unfortunately, when the prototype will be finished, i'll write the whole app in C++ and port it to the PSP/Nintendo DS. (an maybe write also a little editor, to edit my games on the handheld)!

Sounds cool! I will do a little research on what RPGMaker even is

Ihih... It's an easy-to-use tool used to make role playing games without any programming language knowledge. Unfortunately it's closed source and only for windows.

I prefer to make my own RPG style engine from the ground up. That's just how I roll, baby.

Well, me too, but the idea of playing my old games on the PSP was too inviting!

Do not consider https://sourceforge.net/projects/easyrpg/!

I know you won't listen to what I say (because you did not obey in the first place) so I am using anti-psychology magic on you!

Eheh, i already know that project, but i don't like the way they've set up their code, and since i'm noob i can't compile other people's code. The leader of that project (fdelapena) already helped me to find a good site to start with... A japanese site full of interesting infos on how Lcf files are written and how to read them. By the way, the emulator development is going on pretty well: it can now read and display any map, without the event layer (technically i could now write a game and use RPGMaker as a map editor

).

Glad to hear you're making progress!

Well, ehr ehm... I've just moved to C++ and SDL to make the project work also on the PSP and the NDS... And the Wii... And on Windows Mobile... And on Symbian...
