WolfRPG Editor Video Display

[AldroTora]

I am working on a game using wolfRPG editor and want to include some short videos in the gameplay. However it seems the engine only natively supports showing images. Are there any plugins which allow showing videos, or does anyone know if it's possible to convert videos to gifs and show them that way?

I tried searching for something like this but found nothing.

Sorry, never even heard of this engine. You got me curious though, so I did a bit of reading.

My advice is to email/PM some of the devs of games using this engine and ask them directly. Not sure if this ShadowWOLF person is still active (It's been 27 years since they released Wolf RPG after all) but there's several games on Steam that use this engine and I am sure some of those devs are still around.

I was looking at Miaso - 2024 HD remake and there seems to be some simple videos in that version.

Hmm I thought it wasn't too obscure since it has its own category here. But maybe I should just spend the money to get RPGM

Someone posted a working cracked version of mz recently.
Grab the crack version and use it for your initial playing around, then buy once it goes on sale (normally 1 or 2 times a year it goes down verrrry cheap, like 20$).

Note that RPGM is a very limited engine if you are trying to do anything beyond a bog-standard JRPG, with the stupid big maps and ff7 style combat. showing videos, for example, needs plugins.

I did buy it and it seems like MZ natively supports "movies", not sure if those are real videos or not. But at least there's a plugin if I need it.
