Hello community! It has come to our attention that many of you are looking for an improved resource database and would like to have resources be clear and concise as to what they are, in the last week the staff has got together to discuss everything resource related and we have come up with a few new rules and would like to get you all in the know about the changes that are proceeding.
First we’re going to start off with the legal issue with the new marketplace, we have been made aware of the legality of selling any RTP tiles including edits. You are in no way allowed to have rights to sell any RTP resources. So from here on out we will be contacting the few members who have edited RTP resources for sale on the marketplace and asking them to either remove the RTP edits from their tilesets or remove the price from their resources. After 24 hours we will be dis-approving the resource until action has been taken, sorry for any inconvenience but terms are terms. IF you would like to learn more about the legality issues for RTP edits and resource please check out RPG Maker MV’s EULA here:http://www.rpgmakerweb.com/support/information/eula we have also confirmed it with the admins over at RPG Maker Web.
Next we have updated the rules to reflect the new changes and we have created templates for all user to follow, it does not have to be the exact template, you may jazz it up with colors and large text but the details should all remain the same. Any resource which is missing this information will be removed from the resource database entirely until fixed or re-uploaded with all the information included. All resources must now have the following to be approved.
Now that we’ve mentioned this we have created a new Wiki sections which includes these new templates to follow when uploading your resource,
You can see them here: https://rpgmakermv.co/wiki/uploading-resources/
That being said all members will have a 1 week grace period to freshen up their older resources to match these new templates, after that 1 week the staff will be going over all resources and removing ones which do not follow these guidelines.
Thanks to @LTN Games for making this post.
