A word from Gaming World.net:
RPGMaker 2000 is one of the most popular
RPG Makers at the moment, What makes it so popular is its newbie
friendly interface and simple scripting system, which is more
of a click-click system rather then typing out lines and lines
of code. The User Interface in RPGMaker 2000 as said is one of
its strong points, the map editor is very simple to use and all
other game data is stored in a "Database" area that
is easily modified via RPGMaker 2000. Although RPGMaker 2000 is
easy to use it does come with its limits. It is limited to only
being able to use .PNG and .BMP image formats and .WAV and .MID
audio formats. Finally, the engine only runs in 256 colors so
you can't have the most spectacular environments. Although these
limitations look bad, RPGMaker 2000 is still capable of so much
as you may have seen after playing some of the more higher rated
RPGMaker 2000 games here at Gaming World.
Background information: RPGMaker 2000
was originally created by ASCII, A japanese based company but
later on it was "illegaly" translated by a russian fellow
known as Don Miguel, what we mean by "illegaly" is that
ASCII didn't give him permission to translate the Share ware product
and give it out freely over the internet. But he went along with
it and for several years RPGMaker 2000 has spread over the internet
like a swarm of locusts in a crop field. Don Miguel has claimed
that RPGMaker 2000 is now legal after discussing with ASCII. Although
we cannot garauntee his word we feel it is still safe to use the
product as long as you do not sell the games.
