Hear ye, Hear ye, Fellow RPG Maker Devs,

As part of the development team, we are always looking for ways to improve and expand the ways RPG Maker can help you in the creation of your games. Currently on the idea board is to find an easier way to create your unique take on the old classic genre: First Person Dungeon Crawling; Similar to games such as Wizardry and Shin Megami Tensei. For those who’d missed the exciting experience entirely, here are a few examples:
It would mean a great deal to the team to get a rough estimate on how many would be interested in seeing this happen. This is so everyone involved can easily understand the merit of undertaking the creation of this feature.
Aye or Nay? Let us know what you think!
Version 1.5.0 Update!
Hey everyone, the latest version of RPG Maker MV is here! And it's the biggest one yet!
We would like to remind everyone to make sure to do the following steps before updating to ensure that when the update happens so your changes won’t be overwritten:
Backup your game! This is important!
If you haven't already, set RPG Maker MV's update to manual instead of automatic.
Make a backup of your Generator folder if you edited it.
Replace BGM files if you got it from 1.3.0.
If you have an old project that needs updating, do the following:
Backup your game! This is important!
Create a new project or go to the NewData folder in your RPG Maker MV root (where MV is installed) folder.
Copy the new js files (RPG*.js and Libs Folder) and replace the one in your -old project.
DO NOT COPY plugins.js or it will replace your plugin settings.
Copy the new index.html file to your current project.
Update the gamefont.css just in case.
It should now be updated!
