With the second day of the RPG Maker Free-For-All, we give you… an RPG Maker that is free for all!
RPG Maker Lite is based on our incredibly popular game making software: RPG Maker VX Ace. While not as fully featured, RPG Maker Lite does give you everything you need to make your own game, and best of all its absolutely FREE for as long as you want to use it.
Create your world…
… your Heroes…
… and the obstacles they have to overcome.
RPG Maker Lite provides you with everything you need to make a basic RPG. It features many of the new innovations of RPG Maker VX Ace, from shadow control to RegionIDs, with only a few database, map, and script restrictions.
RPG Maker Lite is the perfect place for beginners so share it with your family and friends, or use it yourself for as long as you like. Check out more about RPG Maker Lite and view our mind blowingly awesome new promo video HERE.
Well rpg maker lite is just rpg maker vx is all it is.
That’s kinda what I thought when I saw this. Though from the sound of it, it really probably is just a slightly watered-down version of VXAce.
I’m curious as to what the license restrictions are, as well as if this can port directly to VXAce; though no matter what this is still pretty generous for Enterbrain to have created a free, Lite version.
Its based on VX Ace with restrictions. I’m 95% sure you could open a game made with it in VX Ace since they save in the same format.
I’m curious, can game be published commercially with RPG Maker Lite?
Non-commercial only.
Ah ok. NOW you answer my question.
If Lite is non commercial only, why is there absolutely no mention of this restriction anywhere at all in, or with, the program itself, or anywhere on the site that I could find while searching specifically for that information… except here, in your response?
Honestly, I would really like to know where the company says this, because I couldn’t find it anywhere, for the life of me, and I was searching specifically for it! As far as I know, you can’t just assume people will know that by osmosis. Normally, you would have to say so in the fine print SOMEWHERE… especially when it’s fine to sell games made with every other RPG Maker title! (Or am I wrong?)
Its supposed to be in there, if it got left out somehow, I’ll make sure it gets added.
Forgive me for sounding ignorant I am just not entirely sure but does non-commercial use mean you cannot sell anything made by this software? For instance cannot sell it in the android market?
I made a post on this over on the DAZ forums that gave the Lite product page, so hopefully some more resources for RPG Maker made with Daz products will show up by others in the future and games that incorporate renders of Daz models.
RPG Maker for Android pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!!
Hey, when I open the setup for this thing, It’s normal but when it starts installing for real, it says insert disk one. could somebody help me with that?
… Could you take a screenshot to see what you are talking about.
ok.

The link at the bottom takes you to the page with the download.

Hi there!
This lite version is nice and all. But you should add the restrictions : 20 maps, 10 events per map, no scripting, no common events, minimal ressources.
It’s great for prototyping, fast contests or just discover what RM is all about.
Btw, Lite has the same issue with centered pictures as the first release of RM VX Ace had. Erasing them makes RM crashes (sprite_picture line 54). And since we cannot modify any script in Lite, it’s quite an issue. The only trick is to “move picture” again with upper left just before erasing them.
Ugh, must have been based on an older version of the script base. I’ll see about getting that changed.
Is it possible to start making a game in VX Lite, then if you like what you see, purchase the full version and continue developing with the full features? I’ve messed around with almost every RPG Maker there is (I wish they brought back the side-view fighting, reminiscent of FF3.) but I’m not entirely sure a few screenshots will convince me to spend $69.99 until I’ve tested it. But I don’t want the work I do in the Lite version to be pointless if I do upgrade.
Yes, you can start a game in Lite and then keep going in VX Ace.
I found this site from google and i installed the rpg maker vx ace lite version.
But i can’t use that utility.
Because when i put my e-mail adress and name and enter, i see this message.
“Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel”
I try to find solution from microsoft.com but too difficult for me.
please answer why i can’t use rpg maker vx ace lite version.
It could be a problem with your e-mail provider, it is caused by an error when trying to resolve the connection. Try making another mail account on a different service provider (I use Gmail and it works, but Yahoo, Hotmail and the such probably work too).
Hope you get to fix it.
So, I really would love to try this out SO! bad but I don’t know what program to open it up with. I tried Internet Explorer then Mozilla and neither worked to let me open the rpg maker up. I’d really appreciate a response so I could use this as well. Thanks.
What problem are you having with opening it?
So when I have downloaded it, it will ask me what program it wants me to open it up with.
What kind of file is it downloading as?
