RMXP Basics, for the beginners

[boltfox20]

Try rebooting your computer. Sometimes the computer still thinks the file is in use after you close it. Also, make sure no program ANYWHERE on your computer has a link to that file or the folder it is in. That could also prevent things from deleting.

This helped me alot. Nice, easy to follow, and informative.

Glad to know. Do you have any suggestions for the next one, like possible content or a change in how it was presented?

Fantastic tutorial!  Honestly, with just some minor editing, this should be included under a "Beginner's" section here.  (And, to be perfectly honest, this was what I needed to get myself interested in using RPG Maker XP again.  :grin: )

A few suggestions, if that's cool:

Is it possible to allow the user to explore the resources screen near the end?  While it was nice to get a good rundown of all the basic tabs and what they did, it would have been nice to explore and poke around a few of the screens in your tutorial. 

Perhaps some context sensitive items so that, if someone clicked on the classes tab, it gave a quick rundown based on the sections clicked.  Even possibly hearing the included music and browsing the preloaded materials?

For your later stuff:As your tutorials get more advanced, you may want to increase the level of interactivity.  This might take a bit of doing... and you may also need a way to prevent accidental loops.  But this could provide a very informative, immersive, and entertaining experience!

I'm looking forward to your next one!

Hmm... I like the way you think. I had never thought about interactive tutorials until now... I might be able to do it, but not in this next tutorial. Perhaps, in the third, I will make it more interactive.

Thank you for the suggestions.

Thx your tutorial is very helpful - must say that it is better way to give tutorial to RmXP than only pictures from event commands so THX.

PS: you are right :D making game needs a loooooooots of patience
