RPGM LonaRPG [B.0.10.0.2] [EccmA417]

[Squark ⚧❤️]

I still play this with a gamepad. After fiddling about and wondering why I was attacking the quest board instead of just taking the job paper, I figured it out.

D-Pad U/D/L/R: Move
A/B/X/Y: Primary Abilities
RS: Secondary Abilities
LB: Stealth mode
RB: Aim/Throw Rock
LS/LT + Direction: Change Facing Direction
RT: Run
RT + Rest: Sleep (I have Rest bound to RS Down, so there's the example)
Start: Activate (Can also use A to select Menu items)
Back: Menu

Simplicity itself.

If your game already unpacked, replace all CG/insert image pieces you want gone with bland/transparent one. Can be done in 30 mins if you know what to tweak.
Of course it's the amateur way, for coding you will have to ask someone else on here, namely Teravisor (though I don't see him much around last few months) or go here and ask nicely:

On an unrelated note, if anyone is up to make a LonaRPG wiki page, I'm up to help fill it, I quite a lot of playtime on several playthrough and tested a lot of things, and I dug into the files a few times between translating and just curiosity. I just never made a wiki page and have no idea how to open one. Also maybe we should ask permission to eccma first ? Although I imagine he would laugh at our face. idk.

You can look at this and have fun with it:

Obviously since I don't have the official RPGVXace tool to open the game so I can't help with that.

Nah, I have been playing rpgm games for 15 years. When devs wander away from the standard interface all they do is make life difficult for their players and themselves. Enter->interact, esc -> open menu, mouse clicks-> something happens

Not rocket science

"Wait! I can reinvent the wheel and be adored by millions!"

Yeah, right

It's possible to play this game with a xbox controller and you can map the hotkeys with the controller too .The game is very difficult and seemingly unfair because it is. I'm glad it gives me enough information. I'm personally not looking for an oversimplyfied game UI but thats personal preference.

The game isn't even finished and has more replay value than the average H game. I'm not saying it's perfect but you can't complain if you get it for free. I'm supporting this game and gain nothing more than you. I want to see it finished. If you played RPGm games for this long you likely saw disregarded Interface with no use whatsover. He can do whatever he wants in his game. You can try modding it to your taste if you're capable.

Don't bother, it's just him inventing excuse for not wanting to read the tutorial and the UI.

I mean:
-Press Z : confirm/talk/interact...
-Press X: Open menu/close menu...
-Hold Shift: Run

The most basic of basic of RPGmaker games, but he doesn't want to use any more buttons/shortcut than his lazy ass can handle so now cut to 8 shortcuts menu + SPACE button and he starts sweating the detail.
There's also combination of button like:
SHIFT + Z to pick up and equip
CTRL to crouch
ALT + Directional button to look around + Extra D to defend while looking around + Extra CTRL to look pretty while staying in the shadow if you can afford the final stealth skill upgrade.
Cancel skill button
combo and chain attack
etc...

Oh well, too much to bother with, back to Press Z to blaze-through-the-game normal RPGmaker game.

Are you ok? You seem very stressed. I recommend some deep breathing and maybe a little lie-down. Don't get triggered, you are going to be OK. When I use standard rpgm controls I dont need to learn anything, because they are...standard, which is the point I was making. Now if you like the game, good on you, I hope you enjoy it. I personally dont want to have to do a tutorial to learn the controls when I could be busy actually playing the game

Peace and love, and dont forget to have that lie down.

This gets mentioned all the time. The forum exists for people to discuss games. How they play, the story, the effects and visuals.

You might disagree with what I said, that's fine. I find the controls cumbersome and choose not to play for that reason. And I have every right to say that

Does the cheat mod have any new updates? The one on the main page here appears to have a newer version - but I can't find anything past the April 2021 post. Unsure if that one still works.

 

[uma2]

The game is great!
Ignore the average fat troll.

 

[Yukihirou]

I dont need to learn anything

Speak volumes...
Now I wonder why you still stay here if you don't intend to play the game since some 12 hours ago. Hm?

The one from April by SomeoneElsE is the latest addition to the cheat. Big fat chance it won't work properly with current game version.

Anyone else has had trouble traveling to fish island? When I select either the travel or barter buttons the fishkind offers at the port it throws me an error. I can go around by buying from a "barter" button that appears after getting the error for the first time but it will remain there anyways. It's a translation issue Ig. Should I stop using the translation offered at the main page?

Is it possible to save the prisioners in the orckin cave in the tutorial? I escorted them to the exit but it didn't seem to do something, they just kept crawling there following me and didn't leave.

You must bring them to the exit in the north-west. Not the crack/hole you came from

The latest english patch linked in the first page is for 0.5.4.4 so if you should use it only if you are playing with the exact same version of the game.
If your game is 0.5.6.1 then look at my recent posts, I uploaded a patch for this version a few days ago. For 0.5.7 you will have to wait for a while as I will not work on it until a few 0.0.0.x updates later and CaiNanE isn't currently available to work on the eng patch.

Is there anything that deep one lona can wear/use for lighting? I don't want to spend 30 points in scu just to see in the dark.

Put Lantern in to one of EXT slots? It's not blocked during transformation.

Watch this casual, this is LonaRPG

Go and play it, it's awesome, JUST DO IT !
And stop your little rat attack here.

Upper exit, lower exit is the crack you come from, too big for them, Lona is a petite girl, and goblins are small, so goblins and Lona can slip through.
Beware of traps. (Seriously though, you're a daredevil aren't ya? You're not supposed to enter that cave right now)

Y'know, why the heck do games have different buttons and tutorials these days? Why aren't they just like Mario? Jump, walk, what the heck else do you need? Anything else is pointlessly overcomplicated. I want to PLAY games, not READ them for 5 minutes. Hell, why do gamepads even have more than two buttons? Why would you need more than two buttons in the first place!

Anyways how's your progress with the game ? Manage to get a feel of the combat system yet ?
Believe me when I say the combat and framerate is 150% smoother more than it used to be 9 months ago (many thank to Teravisor, author and others). Combat used to be very wacky, unresponding back in the day but now it's fluid (allowing you to use more game frames for your actions, thus lowering your chance of being attacked). Heck, even the frame rate was below 30 FPS back then.

- If Lona gets pregnant and lets it go all the way to birth, what happens with the baby that she gives birth to? Does what happen change depending on where she is when she gives birth?

- I've read about rebirth, is this available for all races that can impregnate Lona? Or just a select few?

I gotta ask, what's the solution to the slavers in noer other than save scumming?

Some of the really cramped streets make it impossible not to be completely surrounded in 2 seconds.

Is hiring bodyguards 24/7 the only way?

Always chose hide first before engaging encounter, this will spawn enemy group far away from you, you start at center of the map and will have to make your way past them to the border. Unless playing or harder mode, you can escape at the border anytime you want.
Always keep at least one companion avaiable at all time, for this matter, the dog is a good choice as he is a permanent companion (no time limit). Walk slowly toward enemy group, the dog will bark and attract enemy attention while you sprint past them (they will not pay Lona any mind), make sure you escape fast or he's gonna be hotdog sandwiched by bandits.
