RM2K3 Edit During Test Play

[DrazardX]

This change allows you to return to RM2K3 while in Test Play. This is for RPG Advocate's Translation.

1. Go to www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker/ and download Resource Hacker.
2. Open Resource Hacker and open RPG Maker 2003 in it.
3. Uncheck RCData and then uncheck TFORMPROCESSWAIT.
4. Click the "0" next to the icon and change the text so it looks like the text below. Just delete the words in red.

object FormProcessWait: TFormProcessWait
Left = 210
Top = 105
BorderIcons = [biMinimize, biMaximize]
BorderStyle = bsDialog
ClientHeight = 48
ClientWidth = 120
Color = clBtnFace
Font.Charset = EASTEUROPE_CHARSET
Font.Color = clWindowText
Font.Height = -12
Font.Name = 'MS UI Gothic'
Font.Style = []
OldCreateOrder = False
Scaled = False
OnCloseQuery = FormCloseQuery
PixelsPerInch = 96
TextHeight = 12
object Panel1: TPanel
Left = 0
Top = 0
Width = 120
Height = 48
Align = alClient
BevelOuter = bvNone
Caption = 'Please Wait'
TabOrder = 0
end
object Timer1: TTimer
Interval = 50
OnTimer = Timer1Timer
end
object ActionList1: TActionList
Top = 24
object Action_AltF4: TAction
Caption = 'Action_AltF4'
ShortCut = 32883
OnExecute = Action_AltF4Execute
end
end
end


5. Click "Compile Script"
6. Click Save or press CTRL+S
7. You can delete the back-up file that should appear in the rm2k3 folder if you want.(RPG 2003_original)

If you want, you can change what the testplay box says. Just place your text where it says "Please Wait". This step is completely unnecessary.

If anyone actually uses this please tell me. I don't know if I should continue to post things like this if no one is using it.

Not a good idea,sorry to say this but it cause unstability to be able to edit during test play.

[DrazardX]

I use it to look at my coding while i'm in test play. Whatever is changed wouldn't take effect until you restart the game. Whatever you edited would only be temporary information until then. Saving doesn't even change anything unless you go back to the title screen. I tested this by changing map tiles and events in the database and nothing happened.

Wasn't there a patch that allowed it anyway?

I think the patch was for RM2K.
