Step 2: Adding only NEEDED RTP Files to your projectĪfter you finished Step 1, if you open your game you'll probably get an error of a missing file.
RPG VX ACE RTP REQUIRED INSTALL
Now RPG Maker won't ask the users to install RTP on their computers. Save this change you've made and you're good to go. What you want to do is delete everything on the right side of the equal symbol, wich should leave you with this: To avoid this, you'll have to open your project's root folder, and find a file named "Game.ini".Īfter this, just open the file with Notepad and modify the second line. If you release a game without RTP, an user that doesn't have its respective RTP installed will have an error saying: "This game requires (RPGM Version) RTP".Īs you may think, this is not good, since the user won't be able to play the game. (Most of the pictures of this guide will be from RPG Maker VX Ace, but the process is the same for all the versions) This is why a made this little guide, since I see this is a very common problem in this community. why include a ton of resources that are not needed for the game, that just inflate your file size with junk files? do you really need every single item the RTP can offer? The answer will most probably be no.
That would make the game more user-friendly.īut.
And since RPG Maker works with a Run-Time Package, you need to include it in your project so the end-user doesn't have to install it separately. A game developer's biggest wish is to reach an audience as big as possible.
