RPG Maker MV Tutorial: Super Simple Puzzles!

[@MentalWyro]

"Yes, name the pet rock." XD

[@fechamper1439]

You sound like someone who voice acted in digimon. Idk why just what comes to my head.

[@Echo607]

+Spencer Oo, which character which character? I'm curious now!

[@HaunterShow]

+Echo607 You literally sound like most anime characters. It's super easy to listen to your voice.

[@TheHuTao.]

@@HaunterShow even this comment is 5 years old I agree definitely lol.

[@calebtharpe378]

I'm glad MV is so similar to VX Ace (when it comes to events)! So any tutorials for eventing without plugins can be used in VX Ace!

[@azaanmohamed5071]

Caleb Tharpe and yet I downloaded MV because all these good tutorials were MV..... I know, I'm dumb

[@gigaswardblade7261]

Why would they ever change the event menus?

[@SirElrich]

There a way to make it so if the bolder touches a wall it doesnt machinegun the sound effect when you walk into it?

[@Xion431]

Also I can't get this to work, the switch is acting like its same as character, also might help if you don't go through your video at a million miles per hour

[@SteamPhoenix]

Do your actual games that you've made have as much fourth wall breaking as your tutorials do? xD

[@lukelcs8934]

I've played the demo for Gaias Melody Echoed Melodies, and it's about an hour long. It's very plot heavy, and not in goofy meta plot, but regular plot. It's really good though. I think the fourth wall breaking is just something she does for fun in the videos.

[@bakuhex786]

Love all your tutorials great help and way easier than searching 100,000 forums :3

[@dirtymatthias5893]

This video is so helpful! I just started working on a game of my own and being able to add simple puzzles is awesome.

[@IRettiliani]

You make me Crazy! You have make a mistake...on the second Page of the rock event, you have delete everything...this Is wrong, cause the rock moves only One time in this way...on the second Page you Need to put the Movement again...

[@superdreloplays5093]

I'm trying to move the rock but the game just keeps playing the sound and not moving the rock. Anyone know why this is happening?

[@SylkaChan]

Could somebody teach me how to pick up and throw events; and to slide events? Why can't you just move events around they way you would with the player?

[@FreezeHDxx]

i feel like i am very slow in my head because you talk so fast and doing things so fast lol

[@aaronbot5000]

thanks for making this tutorial ! it was super straight forward.

[@ScorpionXII]

I wanted to create bolders which can only be pushed if a certain character is the leader.

[@berryjellyxdberryjelly3948]

You have no idea how helpfull this was to me. I finally learned how to track the location of my character ingame and that makes a whole world of difference in my project. I cant thank you enough for wat you have learned me in these few minutes.

[@RamatiKat]

Thanks, I just got the program last year (1/1/16 jokes ftw.) and could use some ideas for puzzles, this will help out a lot. Subbed.

[@legendaryfisherman5978]

The biggest puzzle I've always had regarding RPG puzzles is how skinny village boys and tiny little girls are capable of pushing boulders to begin with. :D

[@birdiemcchicken1471]

Because Goron Bracelets are mass produced these days, apparently.

[@SailorMusicBR]

Do you know a Isometric Egine? like this:save-point.org/thread-2427.html

[@danhussano]

Super simple, I am going to pause the video each second hahahaha

[@CroatianBulletHD]

Your voice is so anime lol

[@aggeblue8136]

I don't know why but i love your voice. D:

[@TheGMXProductions]

So, uh, any chance you'd be interested in helping dev a game? 😅 I've been fumbling in the dark for the last few years.

[@moosehunter1969]

Slow down, it’s not a race. Rushing through it like that makes it incredibly difficult to follow😳

[@missingtextureman101]

i figured out how to make THE MOST SIMPLE PUZZLE! Have a switch that activates a self switch and increases a variable. Then when you unswitch it it decreases the variable. For switches you do not want to be pressed make it so it decreases the variable when pressed and increases when unpressed. Now make a event that checks for a number. And bam! A puzzle

[@beesnicker9951]

I was watching a sad video and all I hear is : "Hey game makers"

[@neoasura]

Dang! Last time I fiddled with RPG Maker was back with RPG Maker 95 (Yeah Im old) So much has changed! Your tutorials are VERY helpful, definitely subbed. BTW, do you have any actual released RPG Maker games out there?

[@Echo607]

+neoasura I started with RM 2000/2003! XD Free to play games, Gaia's Melody and Gaia's Melody Another Epilogue our my own personal completed projects: endlessgaming.today/downloads/xp-downloads.php

[@RedRice94]

I'm following this on vx ace. I hope it works :/

[@kloe9054]

This was so superly stunning Echo! Thank you! I can now slip around on the ice!! YAY!

[@Echo607]

+David Jones (The Baconis Cleric) :P You sound about as excited as I was when I first figured it out ^_^

[@kloe9054]

☺

[@DoremiFasolatido1979]

I was in for it all...til you got to plugins. I use the PS4 version...no plugins or anything.

[@davidgomez8502]

Can you make a platform when you touch it disappear if you don't move you die?

[@fruitsalad809]

I'm too easily confused even with such a clear explanation 🤣

[@kingcrgp]

Is there a way to make it look not so topdown. Also is there a way to make battles not side to side but more bottom to top kinda like pokemon but more than 1

[@Nileina]

Ur tutorials are probably interesting but u are going too fast for everything. Breath girl

[@noobistproductions]

I found that by making your video speed 0.75 I could finally understand what you were doing LOL. Anyways, amazing tutorial and to the point. I've already mastered this concept thanks to you, this engine has always been easy to manipulate but I struggled with the mapping until this video, and that pieces WAY TOO MANY things for me to make an amazing new game... HORSE WARRIOR! A warrior, but he's a horse, and nobody can understand him, and he fights the forces of evil. Now I have the means to make cool puzzles in my dungeons! Thank you~ (even 7 years later!)

[@kilianbarth9359]

If I want to place multiple rocks with buttons in one room I'll have to do an X and Y Variable for every single one right?

[@MentalWyro]

+Echo607 Asking for Advice though, How would I go about programming the Rock Puzzle in RPGMaker2003?

[@Echo607]

+MentalWyro Similarly to here, though I'm not sure how 2k3's logic worked. It probably wouldn't allow it to have an event underneath it, but it should be more or less the same.

[@FalseSTOP]

@@Echo607 Figured it out back then, and got it working. By the way, HI! Many years later, and I figure I would reach out to you again. Got a hold of you on Twitter and I had a question for you related to our game. ~ Hunter

[@Rayhaku808]

I like your voice and this is really helpful and thorough. But you tend to slur some of your words. I'm hoping to see more MV tutorial vids in the future

[@zeetamight2788]

how do you add when you push the boulder on switch, unlock a door?

[@Midnight_1443]

So, it works if you don't want to be able to talk to the NPCs. Is there a way to make it so you can push people without LaAutoPushNPC? That plugin did not work for me. :(

[@zerobeatw2059]

thanks to this tutorial, I can use my comment event button (which is a shoulder charge) and have it push the rock. but when you just move into the rock, it'll only move it once. the charge moves it a lot further, but isn't as precise. really happy with how it turned out and it's all thanks to this tutorial.

[@JachanShemale]

I know it's too old video/advice but... did you know you can actually solve that puzzle #6 without using diagonal directions? =P

[@lincolnsnewaccount41]

I Like Who Echo is so OWO-Like, Like Most things You can just add OWO To the Beggining, Then its Sorta A OWO Meme OWO *steps on all the icies*

[@shopliftfilms]

You should do more puzzle tutorials. :)

[@thomasfenot3352]

Too fast ! I can't see ;,,( And i am french so i don't understant everything

[@kirakoraawesome]

You can slow down the speed of the video if you need too. just click the 3 dots in the corner, then click playback speed and select a one that is below the number one to slow her voice down.

[@MahmudShuaib]

sup tube......new to this RPG maker, whats the learning curve like?

[@Echo607]

+Mahmud Shuaib It's very basic and easy, but gives you the freedom to be as complicated as you want(mostly). I found it very easy to get the hang of:)

[@animalsofferntree520]

Is it possible to make a spinning puzzle? Like the ones in the Pokemon Blue/Red/Yellow games in the Team Rocket base in Celadon City? I really want to make one where they spin from tile to tile haha :)

[@EbuCallinav]

Hmm, what about pushing the boulder into a hole that you can't walk though yourself? My first assumption would be to toggle the though characteristic on and then off on the hole each time you push the boulder, but if that didn't work I would think to make a check and disappear the boulder when "pushed" from the proper direction and spot before the hole.

[@Rislear]

Help! The ice sliding can be bypassed by holding down click with mouse movement! Does anyone at least know of a way to disable mouse movement?

[@MinoruLeo]

This is very useful. Thanks for the video.

[@ThatWeirdPeanut]

Im trying to do the one where you have to push the boulder on to a switch. But i wanted the player to have to push 3 different boulders onto 3 different switches. I cant figure out how to do it. Any tips??

[@bryanhagin9927]

I tried the push-a-boulder thing, but it won't move even though I did exactly as you did.

[@hosamorfali3444]

Your tutorials are very helpful and bad in the same time, bad because you talk and explain super fast to the point where you made me look for someone else that can explain this in a smoother way. Thank you

[@curtloadblower]

hey I was wondering where did u go to download the map editor. I have rpg maker vx ace, it comes with the assets but theres no executable to run the map editor pls halp

[@moonlightshadowpony]

This is slowly becoming one of my favorite channels.

[@nandopetermann]

I dont understand English that good to understand the fast voice. So I changed the speed to 0.75. Its better now.

[@delaineduquette1143]

My boulder won’t go onto the switch

[@icedragongamemaster6797]

A like for Echo607. An advice: Talk 13% slower.

[@arvhenvondegerfeld5033]

so nice! ^^ I would love to know what settings ,and where to begin, i should use to create characters whit this style ! I mean I know how to draw,but I just bought rpg maker and feel kinda lost

[@Eurotool]

Has her voice been sped up?

[@LORDSofCHAOS333]

yhe can some one help to disable the sound effect in the event . because i wanna replace the sound effect or just pout it to no sounds when my player go to the other map . if some one can help . how to remove the sounds theta come whit the transfer player . if some one can help my to customize it a bit more

[@FoxbearFilms]

I've done everything you said (Im using the multiple push boulder on a button) & When I try to push it on the button, it acts as if its a wall, the switch is set below character, I can walk over it, but the boulder cant. Help please!

[@Echo607]

+Ol Skool Gamer Try using the Yep_CoreEngine plugin It apparently is what makes events passable over other events(though I'm not sure why:/)

[@FoxbearFilms]

Okay, I'll try that (I'll ALSO be submitting a new version of my demo soon (If that's still a thing you're doing, I hope it is >w

[@Echo607]

Okay:3 lol it is, I've just been having mega issues with MV and my recorder, so they're a little bit on hiatus until I feel like trying to fix it again (playing a 1 hour demo and then finding out your recording broke half way through kind of kills the experience for yaO_o)

[@FoxbearFilms]

Echo607 Well I hope that gets fixed! (Yay! A lot of the things in the game I got from your videos so you may recognize some tutorials of your's in there :3) (I'm currently watching your Dynamic Battle Intro right now XD)

[@FoxbearFilms]

+Ol Skool Gamer Yay! The plugin worked! Thank you!

[@Frostyflytrap]

When I saw you solve the ice puzzle, I noticed that you had a diagonal movement feature enabled. I may be mistaken, but I'm sure it's a plugin, right? Anyway, know can you help me learn how to add it to my game?

[@Echo607]

+Frostyflytrap Download this plugin, save it to your game's \js\plugins folder, and then load it into the Plugins Manager(the green button at the top) www.dropbox.com/s/85rd5n4zoz8my7w/Yami_8DIR.js?dl=0

[@hokeypokeyy8551]

Hey by the way I have a question =O If I were to make a game on RPG maker MV, once its finished is there any way to send it to a friend for them to play it, without my friend owning RPG maker MV?

[@Echo607]

+Hokeypokeyy As MV no longer uses RTP, you should just be able to send them the game - I can't test this, but they should be able to play it via index.html. Or deploying it would probably work, too.

[@hokeypokeyy8551]

ooh ok ty! ^__^

[@cosmic0_0wizard]

Do you have this on the ps4 if so do you videos for it

[@danagray9709]

You're going a little fast, but I'm learning. Thanks!

[@gubbna5949]

I am having some trouble when the boulder reaches the switch it wont actually go on it when i push it on to it.

[@joshuamc19]

Is mv that much different then xp?

[@mariopeloful901]

Does the Icy slide mess up with the orange pixel movement plugin?

[@FFDennis]

Thank you. This will reduce the Try-and-error-procedure a lot ;)

Is there anything i can do in RPG maker without plugin ?

it little sad it not a french subtitled version but it easy to understand with video at 80%.

Y'know, I spent 7 years taking a french class in school and got absolutely nothing out of it :( Blame my education system! lol Languages aren't my strong point, sadly.

[@guerin71281]

not a problem it not easy to be an anime in an anime school i guess ... what would mean guess ? :) i can be understanding (like a romania people) but i no understand what i talking about !!! love you .... godess anime young girl O:)

so how do you set up a rock puzzle that requires you to hit switches in a specific order?

+Echo607 Alright, that totally did it. Wow. Thanks Echo

[@Echo607]

:3I never had an issue with it still playing the sound effect lol, that never bothered me. Like 'you're trying to push it, it's just not going anywhere'. I can't think off the top of my head an easy way to do that that wouldn't be a total pain in the butt to event:/

[@efnick96]

Hey Echo. Would you consider doing one or two rpg horror themed videos/tutorials? To be honest the reason I started playing around with rpg maker was Witch's House, the Mad Father and Paranoiac games.I would really appreciate some help with advanced chasing events, some ideas for atmosphere and maybe a jumpscare. Thanking you in advance.

[@Echo607]

+Nikolas E. I can look into it, but to be honest I haven't made any horror games, nor played too many of them (I'm really only limited to Corpse Party and Higurashi as far as horror goes) I'll take a look at the ones you mentioned and see if I can come up with anything, though:3

[@efnick96]

+Echo607 Thanks.I would suggest Witch's house and mad father.Paranoiac might be a little bit tricky and annoying. If you play them, please let me know what do you think of them

[@dbdragoner]

I loved that last puzzle. ^.^

[@gjssub]

I know that this is probably super easy for most people to understand, but I just started learning a few days ago, is there any way that you could make a video on some very simple basics and maybe go a little slower in it? Thanks :)

[@thegamingsnivy9640]

there's a bunch of other tutorials

[@devillass6025]

There's this guy that does just that for MV, I have a playlist of him but I'm sure you'll be able to find him just easy.

[@LittleBigSmoak_]

Yeah uhh, few problems here. The rocks wouldn't move and when I used ones from the in-game tutorial, they wouldn't go over the button. Please help, not sure if I messed up here or if an update screwed up everything or whatever
