RPG Maker
RPG Maker is a software series dedicated to RPGs development. Games made with these engines can usually be played through Wine or different source ports.
Native
RPG Maker 2000/2003
EasyRPG Player can run games made with RPG Maker 2000 and 2003[1]on Linux natively.
You can install it from your distribution official repositories or download the executable from the website[2]. To start a game, put the EasyRPG Player binary in the same directory as "RPG_RT.exe". Open a terminal emulator and run ./easyrpg-player
. As it supports MIDI playback, you don’t need another program. Download a SoundFont file, rename it to "easyrpg.soundfont", move it next to EasyRPG Player and it will use it by default[3]. EasyRPG Player can also be started with environment variables[4], custom settings from configuration files[5] and command-line options[6][7] like:
--soundfont <soundfont>
, to use a custom path for your SoundFont--project-path <path>
, to change the path where "RPG_RT.exe" is located--engine
--disable-rtp
--encoding
--save-path
--show-fps --fps-limit --no-vsync
Now that you use EasyRPG Player, you shouldn't need .exe
, .dll
, .jar
files and you can remove them from the game project directory except "RPG_RT.exe" (this one is needed). All RPG Maker 2000/2003 games aren't compatible with EasyRPG Player though[8].
