List of MV Disappointments

I'm a tad bit disappointed in the short list of default BGMs.
Did you have the same problem I did, where the Steam copy only gave you 18 songs? Because if you go into the DLC folder there's, like, a LOT more (don't know WHY you had to go digging for it, but, whatever...). Just counted, and with the bonus songs I have 111 songs total.

111? I have the non-Steam version; I haven't activated it in Steam yet. But the Essentials DLC that came with the pre-order only has like 12-14 more songs to add to the original dozen or so. How the heck do you manage to get that many bonus songs?

I had a "Base Resource" folder that had 71 bonus songs, then the 8 Cover Character themes, and 14 songs in the Essentials Set. Plus the 18 that came with the game, that's 111.

The songs in the Base Resource folder are really throwing me off. Most of them look like they just should have been in the game by default (Themes 3-5, for example) but then there are a ton of songs beginning with 03... I think I read somewhere that MV had RM2003 remixes so I GUESS that's them?

I'm....confused. I might just have to connect it to Steam then, because I don't know what Base Resources you're referring to. The game came installed with 18 songs, and the only bonus DLC content that was available for download was Essentials and Character Art pack. There's no DLC folder in the vendor's copy of the software. Anywaddles, I'm activating the thing on Steam now so I can take a peek into the mysterious box that is this DLC folder and maybe I'll find some goodies...

check your email again, with the essentials and character art, there should be three others. two of them are plugin packs and 1 is a huge file containing the resources your missing.

Yeah, I joined my MV copy to Steam and I accessed the DLC folder--found all the resources. Now I've got over 100 songs, too. Huzzah! It's an odd way of getting all the content, but I grasp the reasoning behind it---to keep the game's file size down and letting people add only the music they want/need in their individual games. Nod, nod.

YAY glad you finally got access to them!

Memory leak, Tileset viewer is 32x32, where the map grid is 48x48, now this may seem a bit wierd but it drives me nuts. Also tiles, go to lay a dinner plate on the dinner table and whoa, the plate is gigantic, I need a bigger table now or shrink the dinner plate, geez. Memory leak is not too bad but still annoying. The rtp is small to me, the sci fi tiles are not my cup of tea. There is a folder of extra pictures filled with half naked girls, im fine with this but not children, geez, a girl sucking a popsicle in her underwear and a camel toe does not say pg13. hmm what else am I dissapointed, oh word wrap, I don't understand why the actual editor don't auto word wrap, strange. Anyways thats what I ddon't like so far, if I think of more I'll be back.

The only reason that made it to the download was because of an oversight. Nobody ever looked over and approved the files before they were included, so nobody realized what was up until it was too late. >_>

I made many sad faces at the icon sheet.
So, many sad faces. Where are my Epic Sword of Swordiness? My Salad Of Healthy Health?

I don't even have carrots. I don't even like carrots. But that doesn't matter anymore because they don't exist.

-dramatic sigh-
-imports RPG VXACE iconsheet-

Yeah. That's a bit of a disappointment considering the price. Though I really do like the SV view, even though I have no intention of using either battle system but it's adorable. Very tempted to try and sprite some cooler looking swords though. (Does this mean it's possible to finally have a system where your character changes weapon and it changes in-battle?)

Now that you bring this up, it reminds me of a few things I am also disappointed in. For example the fresh project database, why does it only have 4 weapons, 4 enemies, a few items, a few skills etc. etc. Now this is not personally a bad thing for me because when I start new projects that will be a full game I usually delete everything and start fresh but I enjoy taking a look at the possibilities available for database information. When a newbie comes to this software I think the current amount of info in the database will not help them much on starting their own items and understanding the differences needed to make a good game. Another thing, is no built in script editor :O like whoa, this was upsetting as I enjoy editing my script real quick then playtesting, now I need to open in a separate program edit the script, save it, playtest. Oh my. A thing that I wanted to see in MV was an event command search like in RM2k3, you start a new event, double click to find a command and being able to search this list would have been super helpful, but again this is not a huge deal to me as I am fairly quick with finding what I need. Okay one more and I will stop focusing on what I don't like about MV because overall I do like it, okay so the characters, you go to make a new event and half of the characters that are usually there in other RM software is no longer there, where is my sparkly light thingy, the thing that looks like a star and helps players know "hey I should look over where that sparkly star thing is and see what I can find" yea that is missing I don’t like that lol. Okay that’s enough bashing MV because I do like it, and these small cons don’t really take away from the best part of it all, resolution, multiplatform, built in sideview battles and the dece nchar generator and many other things, so bye now :D lol

Cheers

I'm having problems to manage the screen resolution using Yanfy's enigne.
I thought with that, you could change all the game texts like the messages, parameters etc. Unless you mean changing your whole editor's language by yourself. I appologize for not being a great help :(
Oh, don't need to apologize. Thanks for your attention, Sir!

By the way, every text (or almost every, until now) in-game can be translated to english, so...it's fine (unnecessary work, but whatever).

I miss the resource import option...

Perhaps they should have really waited to release it in "Winter 2015" like it was announced? I find that it is AWESOME and BROKEN at the same time. $72 bucks...not quite worth that amount just yet. I purchased it twice so I may be trying out Steam's refund system for the 2nd copy.
