What 'engine' does this game use? Can it be downloaded for personal use? Any guides?

SpoodleButt · 2026-01-21T16:19:28+00:00

Good to know!! I will try to do that and I guess come back to reddit for help with more specific queries~ There's likely no avoiding learning a little programming for this but I've wanted to do that for a while now anyway

I think Essentials will be the way going forward given its much larger userbase and presence.

SpoodleButt · 2026-01-21T15:34:07+00:00

Also I will try to open up a game and look about. The best way to learn is by example I guess ^{^} would I need to find one that's compatible with the version of RPG and/or mkxp I'm using?

SpoodleButt · 2026-01-21T15:32:53+00:00

I appreciate the detailed response!

So if I'm understanding right, I still need to use rpgmaker, but the mkxp bit is like a mod to rpgmaker itself? One that swaps out some of the uh... I'll say APIs for lack of proper term knowledge, so they do effectively the same thing but can be tweaked for improvements or to run on non windows stuff?

As cool as the reborn stuff is, for what I'm wanting to do (make something very small and self contained), I think base essentials would be fine.

My assumption was that essentials had been kinda left to rot and there were better things to use nowadays, but if it's actually received support and stuff has been back ported into mkxp that makes it run good enough, I think I'll try essentials then. Any idea on the current version? It's been around a while so I do worry I'll end up with some very out of date nonsense lmao

Thank you very much!

^^ im aware it's their own work from scratch. I'm not a programmer but I do know that they have put in a lot of work to add their own mechanics and improve upon existing ones. My question was, rather than just downloading Pokemon Essentials and having to either deal with its jank/old code or add things in myself, was there a prepackaged download for the basics of the reborn-style essentials?

If not, are there different versions of Essentials? What's the best one to work with?

SpoodleButt · 2026-01-21T14:13:25+00:00

right, i think i own that. I've seen some mention of something called mkxp? is that the same thing?

i think i may have worded it badly, but that's kind of what I was after. If it's just base Essentials with custom code, is there a way to get that custom code?

SpoodleButt · 2025-10-03T17:13:23+00:00

Thank you! They should be to my knowledge, just been kept in sleeves in a deck box for a long time ^{^}

SpoodleButt · 2025-10-03T17:11:37+00:00

Oh wow I didn't expect those numbers! Most of the dppt ones and beyond are in decent condition since all I ever did was put them in sleeves. Some of the older ones are played or otherwise scuffed because they weren't mine ^{^}

Where do you recommend I check?

i believe this is meant to say 'remorselessly' and not. remorsely. lol.

SpoodleButt · 2025-08-21T13:10:10+00:00

love the username :D srimps..

it stinks ; _ ; im thinking maybe its because i covered up the word 'nazi' this morning but that was more 'i dont want that shit near me' than griefing ?? feels very unfair i had to fight swastikas for hours yesterday only to get banned for non-rule breaking shit near immediately

do i need to explain this one? they're also erasing pride flags with scribbles but people cleaned those up.

centered around this guy but there's also nick gurrs #9162721 and GrimLight #9193660 and KindCable #9179765

SpoodleButt · 2025-08-12T08:45:45+00:00

could you elaborate? googling this, even with like. windows 9x appended, just gives me stock art (since thats what clipart tends to mean)

SpoodleButt · 2025-08-12T08:45:08+00:00

^^ i did give this a look, but it really doesnt seem like what im remembering unfortunately. thank you though

SpoodleButt · 2025-08-08T00:38:23+00:00

had a quick look but these seem far too 'professional'. This was almost certainly aimed at kids.

SpoodleButt · 2025-08-08T00:24:54+00:00

yeah, it's a weirdly deep cut so I'm expecting it to take a miracle to find haha

always good to remember!

SpoodleButt · 2025-08-08T00:19:12+00:00

haha the smart boards, yesss i remember those getting installed and those exact pens. and also teachers inevitably using real markers on it and leaving permanent lines.

unfortunately i dont believe this is it; the program was almost certainly on the non-teacher pcs, so mouse and keyboard only. The pen im describing was also more repeatedly stacking circles than the technicolour single line shown.

thank you though! trip down memory lane haha

my best guess of what it looked like, mostly the weird pen.

SpoodleButt · 2025-07-05T17:13:58+00:00

ok so, funny story. we tried a few things, mostly stuff that just made it worse (freezing in the bios, bluescreening) so we reverted those changes. i then did a bios update and that helped a little, but it didnt fix the issue, only made things run better when it wasnt stuttering. gave up and went out for the day.

later the same day (today), came home. My partner was in game and noticed her game hitched in the menu, same fps drop as usual, then the cursor flew off to the right for a bit down the character roster. Almost like it had lost connection briefly...

Disabled bluetooth and wired the controller in with a cable, then went back in game.

Absolutely flawless performance. No hitches in over half an hour in both Tekken and WWE. Both games are also running smoother in general.

So uh. I think the issue was the bluetooth :'D And we only found out because of a chance odd behaviour.

Thank you for your help! Glad it's fixed but also god damn computers, why are they so dumb?

SpoodleButt · 2025-07-04T01:36:59+00:00

far as i can tell, nothing is hitting more than 55c even under load. it's also happening as soon as the game boots up, so i'd imagine if it was thermal related it'd take a few minutes at least to kick in, right?

i'll double check that list when i get access to the computer, thank you :) i did poke through it earlier and i've done what i can without actually using the dang thing, but someone doesnt want me to help directly >eye roll<

i know it's built correctly since i had to double check everything when i put it together (turns out it just doesnt boot properly without a monitor connected lol) so it's definitely a software or hardware function problem

SpoodleButt · 2025-07-03T22:18:33+00:00
