I've been making a game on Sim Rpg Maker 95 for a while. I've used it before several times over the years. But I've been playing ALOT of Fire emblem lately and it just really made me want to make a similar game.

The problem is, there is NO resources for this stupid program. I have been ALL over google and I can't find crap for it. There aren't even any finished games out there for me to study and find out how to get better at it. (I have Power Dolls, and the FE6 fangame)

So I guess the point of this topic is, does anyone on GW have experience with SRPG95? Do you have resources or know where to get them? Have you done any games I could play and/or study in the editor to learn how to make better games?

I know it's a long shot, I don't think ANY maker has had less support/interest than this one.
Peace and Love

I don't have any experience or resources for Sim RPG Maker 95, maybe i'll try to look into it as well when I have the chance. I went into my Sim RPG Maker 95 folder though, and I noticed I have two french games in there. They are 2W Story Episode 1 & Episode 2. I can upload them for you if they are not on the net anymore. I hope having another game to study from will help you out.

That game doesn't have a title but it is another Sim RPG Maker Game

This is another Fire Emblem Game. It is a remake of Fire Emblem 2 in Sim RPG Maker 95.

This is about all I have found extra so far. I am going to keep hunting stuff down. I found some FAQs and a tutorial and I might save it and upload it later for you. I hope you get some use out of this. =)

Thank you for the game links.  I hadn't seen either of these before.

Unfortunately it seems both games won't show up in the editor, so I can't study either one. But I played Title Goes Here's 3 maps and I am several maps into the FE Gaiden game and it's pretty good so far. :)

I don't have the French games that came with your version. I have the version that comes with the Fantasy RTP rather than the cutesy RTP that originally came with SRPG95.

Not a long cause so far though, I have seen some things in both games that I figured out on my own without having to see it in the editor. Things I could have figured out on my own but never did. Like how to recruit people and how to use maps for things other than battles. Although SRPG95 is very limited, it's actually possible to do some things if you have the creativity for it.
Peace and Love

I know what you mean.

I've never heard of SRPG95 before. It sounds like it might have been a good option for a game I was going to make (I decided to keep my attention focused on my main game instead.)

The game concept was that you could be godzilla, an alien ship, or a force of nature and you went around destroying cities. You'd get points for people killed, dollars of damage caused, people abducted, etc. There would have been dozens of statistics and a high score board for each level. Please take this idea and make it, I think it would be a blast haha.
Sweet online game in alpha.

Just for the record, I DID get both of those games to work in the editor. I finally realized the editor won't recognize any game that is not in the srpg95 folder (even though it gives you a browse option to search anywhere)

I REALLY feel like making a Fire Emblem fan game now. So, I guess I will. :)
