Hi there, before going any further,let me tell you again that this tutorial is only for android users only and for RPGM games (VX Ace on this one)
I tried this tutorial on myself with and japanese rpgm game and it works just fine.

• NOW LET'S GO TO THE IMPORTANT PART •

Step 1: Go on google and download the latest version of JoiPlay

Step 10: Extract all :)

• NOW WE NEED TO SET THE RTP (Run-Time Package so that you can run the game smoothly)

Step 11: Follow these screenshots first then you can go to the rpgmaker website

Step 12: Select "
RPG Maker VX ACE"

Step 13: Download the "zip file" [Btw you have there instructions on how to Install it...BUT IT'S FOR PC!!!] Annoying right?,But I know how so no worries.

Here's the website RTP →

• SADLY THERE'LL BE NO SCREENSHOTS FROM NOW ON BUT YOU'LL BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND VERY EASY •

Step 14: You can choose to extract the zip of not but It doesn't matter so the result is the same, so Open JoiPlay and add the game there

Step 15: Tap on the game,you'll see a pop-up there, Regarding RTP

Step 16: Select "CHOOSE" and search for the RTP (VX ACE) you just dowloaded [RTP VX ACE ZIP] or [Setup.exe if you extracted it]

Step 15: Wait until it says It's done and press OK [DO NOT OPEN THE GAME YET]

• NOW EYES HERE,THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT (AND SIMPLE) • If don't do this then all you did just now is worthless

Step 16: Open your settings (your phone settings)

Step 17: Change your location/region to "Japan" (You must search for in settings on your own cuz it depends on device)

Step 18: Go to the clock settings and change your default GMT...Choose Tokyo,Japan GMT +9:00 (or JST if not GMT)

Step 19: Open JoiPlay and run the game [IF IT DIDN'T WORK TO RUN...Go to your "Files" in your game's folder,If you find .nomedia and/or .noscan then delete it]

LAST STEP: ENJOY

I HOPE IT WORKS ON YOUR DEVICE,IF NOT THEN IDK WHAT FIX :WaitWhat:
Good Luck!

I don't play the Japanese ones, just the translated games, but thanks for the guide anyway. Most of the steps are still applicable for the translated games, btw.

But one thing I want to mention is that on the latest version of Joyplay most RPG MV games turn into a slideshow. I downloaded an earlier version - 1.11.006-patreon and everything is perfect now.

There are jap and eng versions of rtp, joi play doesn't allow to install jap versions, but some games need them.
How to deal with that issue?
