Is it possible to make Front Mission 2 with this?

[PocketYoda]

Hi all as the Title says would it be possible to make a clone or a game similar to Front Mission 2 with this?

Short answer: No.

Damn ok any reason why not?

Could you explain which gameplay mechanics from Front Mission 2 you are referring to? Some of us haven't heard of it, much less played it.

The game is pretty restrictive when it comes to a lot of things. There are people who re-created DOOM using RPG Maker, but I can't really say that it was a good port. It mainly tries to focus on a 2D over-the-top view a la Final Fantasy II and so on.

However, there could be a small chance of doing something in 3D, but it would require to know how the engine works from top to bottom and also know about Scripting to an extent. So, if you're aiming for this kind of game, I'd say use another engine. But RPG Maker is really good on making small and simple games.

Front Mission doesn't HAVE to be in 3D ya dingus :P , i'm sure he knew it was a 2D engine. And yes, with the correct scripting it SHOULD be possible to make something that plays like Front Mission/FF Tactics/whatever. Here's quite an old demo of a script used to make a simple game like that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InHIsLpzH2Y#t=112

Obviously with more features scripted in and with higher quality art assets it would look a million times better than this. You can make it fantasy/futuristic/modern/whatever you like as long as you have the artwork for it :)

Strategy rpg combat isn't built into the game, but from doing a quick google search it seems there is at least one if not more options to download custom scripts from other people that allow Front Mission/FF Tactics style combat. So yes it should be possible.

It was basically a mech Final Fantasy, probably one of the best i've ever enjoyed you can customise mechs and purchase parts, steal enemy mechs..

Had little cut scenes when they fought too.

I seen mecha games made in RPG Maker, so it could be possible

Are they playable without RPG maker?
