Porting Rpg Maker Into Pandora

[tyicepaws]

i was wondering I have a few games Ive made, little things and
wondered if they could be ported to Pandora
or if the whole maker it self could. It would be a fast
and easy way to develop games for Pandora

RPG Maker is closed source and Windows only. No, it can't be ported.

Start here, look at the open source engines. OHRRPGCE and Sphere should both be technically possible to port to the Pandora.
After that, you can have a look at these. Most should be able to be ported, eventually. Some will be easier than others. Take a look and see if any of these open source engines seem like something you would like to use, and then post back to find out if it's possible to port or not.

While OHRRPGCE is indeed open source, it is unfortunately written in FreeBASIC, and the FreeBASIC compiler can only compile to x86 platforms.
It's thus unlikely that there will be a port to the Pandora until either FreeBASIC gains a C backend or OHRRPGCE gets rewritten in another language, both of which for there are stalled or very slow-moving projects.
It's too bad, there's some great games for it.

as being the most flexible as to game type and power which do you thing would be the best for Pandora as i would like to dev on the go if i could

cools your second link is broken though but what do you thing between rpg toolkit and aki. I wanted to use easyrpg but it isn't ready yet

 

[gruso]

Everone says my links are broken I think it's because I display 40 posts per page. It just links to post #21 btw.

Can't help you with any technical information or opinions about my links though, sorry.

you're probably right. i do the same thing and it works for me

How You make that links? I grab url of post from its upper right corner. There is #<number> link that display box with url to exact post, not to page and order on page.

edit: In example, this post has this http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?/topic/53181-porting-rpg-maker-into-pandora/page__view__findpost__p__845694 url.

 

[gruso]

Same, but the problem appears when getting those links from a multipage thread. Most people are on the default view of (iirc) 20 posts per page. The link contains page number info, so if your view is set to 40 posts per page and you get a link from page 3, it's not going to be the same page number as everyone else.

 

[peca]

Gruso: Curious. I doesn't have page number in my links: www.gp32x.de/board/index.php ? /topic/53181-porting-rpg-maker-into-pandora/page__view__findpost__p__845694
edit: Your links www.gp32x.de/board/index.php ? /topic/49849-pandora-rpg-maker/page__p__761629&#entry761629

 

[gruso]

Hmm, I've just realised why they're different. If you left click on the #21 in question you get a popup box containing your version of the URL:

http://www.gp32x.de...post__p__761629

But if you center click / ctrl-click the #21 to open it in a new tab, then grab the URL from the address bar (as I did), you get my version of the link:

http://www.gp32x.de...29&#entry761629

Stupid IPB! I always open links in a new tab first, to make sure they work before sharing them... the irony. <_<


[edit] Ok, here's a random link to another thread. It should link to post #345, which for me is on page 9.

http://www.gp32x.de...post__p__844789

Does it work for everyone else?

 

[iprice]

It links to post #345 as expected, which for me is on page 23.

 

[peca]

Gruso: That is. Congrats

Is the easyRPG dead? I was thinking doing RPG Maker XP interpreter too.. But scrapped it because of my current project

 

[gruso]

Look at me, learning things.

Spoiler

It's still IPB's fault.

Still not dead, just refactoring the whole player code with rgss style, so no new visible features until this rework is being done. Our mate vgvgf, the most work done on the new rewrite is doing some RPGXP/VX stuff in a parallel project, called "ARGSS". You can learn more at http://argss.com.ar/ . Now he's currently enrolled into Google Summer of Code program doing some 3D acceleration work for SCUMMVM, including OpenGL ES, so we'll wait a bit more for the global overall progress.
