New to these forums. I think I'm decent when it comes to making games, but only on 03, I don't know if XP and VX are worth it or not, but 03 is pretty limited considering what I want to do :(

Anyway, hi.

Sup Dance Dance Revolution? ;D Welcome to the forums!
There is a thread about the topic which is better, rmvx or rmxp: *clicky*
Although rmxp and rmvx have scripting, people have shown that you can do some sick stuff with 03 too, jsyk.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy your stay here and I wish you good luck with your project!

From what I've seen, XP is very similar to 03, so I'm probably going to have a go at that first :D But I doubt 03 games are up to standards considering the improvements made.
 
On the contrary a lot of people find 2k3 games to be better although that's probably down to nostalgia. The thought is that without scripting people had to put more effort in.

XP is the closest to 2k and 2k3 IMO, and is a very good system to lead on from.

VX's editor and default battle system are closest to 2k's, from what I've seen of them; XP's were stripped down quite a bit, possibly because they didn't think people would need as much built-in functionality.

really, though, you're best off just trying them both firsthand. you probably already know this, but XP and VX both have a thirty-day free trial available for you to get your bearings in each. just go with whichever seems the most intuitive or enjoyable for you! I'm a VX man myself, but they both have their merits and their weak points.

and yeah, welcome! good luck with all that game making stuff.

Thanks, actually, I already have XP, but its sorta hard, since I spent a lot of time using 03, then XP comes along and I'm completely clueless again :cry:

Anyway, I prefer 03 sprites to the chibi in XP and XV :P
 
Welcome to the forums. Here are two tips that will help: Beware of lunk hardshaft, and don't touch the damn cookies.

Other than that enjoy your time here.

any way welcome ddr. one thing you should know. don't take life seriously, nobody gets out alive anyway. for that matter don't take mouse seriously either. nobody else does :D
