(June 8 to June 14, 2026)

Welcome dear readers to the latest issue of the Weekly Gazette! Here in the Gazette, we give you the news in brief of what occurred in the past week as well as provide any news happening in Save-Point itself

Official Area

Announcements and Updates

This week, many were shocked by the news that RPG Maker Web is Closing. Starting anew, GatchaGatchaGames has created another community site and gave its members a mere week's time of posting before RPG Maker Web goes into a read-only mode. And by the end of the year, it will cease to exist. The statement by GatchaGatchaGames reads that even membership accounts will not be transferred, so membership within their new 'guild' requires a new account. But at least all licensed purchases of RPGMaker engines made at KomodoStore remain intact.

For those that are appauled that the site is not only set to close, but destined for erasure, there is now an RPGMaker Webs Archiving Endeavor happening right now. And with that, DerVVulfman posted a link where one can acquire a massize zip file for the RPGMaker MZ plugins. And for others, TouchFuzzy had disabled all protective barriers so they would be able to utilize the Internet Archive for backups.

Feedback and Suggestions

After noticing that RPGMakerWebs was closing, DoubleX rushed over to inform the membership of the new Guild location created by GatchatGatchaGames. However, he also wished to suggest that we Prepare For Increased Forum Activity with the closing of Webs, and that he began promoting our site.

Occasions

Early in her venture in game design, Savayone joined our community. She's made some small games n her past, and is looking forward to socializing and making links in the community She also has some talents in writing and art.

As RPGMaker Webs is vanishing, Crime Robot decided to come by for a spell. A fan of old-school NES and SNES RPGs, he hopes to sticking around and get working on his games. He has some experience, but lost much of his progress was lost with his prior PC.

A fledgeling in the use of RPGMaker MZ is MuyoPopHoneyNutFemios. Invited to our community by Rose Guardian, she too is also an artist and looks forward to making games with this and other gaming engines.


TroyZ is no stranger to video game forums, and has arrived here with other refugees from the now sinking RPGMaker Web. He has hopes to find our community cozy, and was surprised to find his old haunt of RPG Revolutions had been tucked away. He plans to return to scripting since going on a forced hiatus from an earthquake nearly eight years ago.

On the hunt for scripts meant for RPGMaker VXAce is alexncf125. It was luck indeed that our forum was found and the surprise of a large treasure trove of resources wasn't something to just ignore.

Kururu has been in the game making community for a while, and was pleasantly surprised to find DerVVulfman from their old days at HBGames when it was still RMXP.Org.

General Chat

Low and behold, for Nintendo's Lawsuit against Palworld is now BORKED! From all appearances, everything that Nintendo's lawsuit sought to use to crush their rival had been removed from their beta releases by way of patches. And given that the official version still has over a month to appear, the gaming induststry giant's expected return were they to prevail is a meager ¥5 million yen, or $30,000 dollars USD. Neither Nintendo nor PocketPair, Inc.see this as anything more than chump change, and this turn of events is being seen as a victory by many in the gaming industry. But to add insult to Injury, a Costa Rican entrepreneur also struck a devastating blow by winning a Trademark lawsuit against Nintendo and José Mario Alfaro González is able to proceed with naming his supermarket "Super Mario".

Due to the sheer number of events that take place weekly, this is the last Gazette article for the News of the World. This is solely for the quantity of stories that come from day to day and the actual substantive and high rating of the material posted which makes editing the content down in size difficult. And at times, it is difficult to limit what to relay. But this week, the News does cover much that occurred in the Middle East between Israeli retaliation against Hezbollah attacks and the deal to end the war between the US and Iran. Ukraine regained over 200 square miles of its territory back from Putin, while it was revealed Russia conscripted women to poison Ukranian troops on dates, Outgoing DNI Tulsi Gabbard declasisfied and released documents revealing over 100 biological labs in foreign countries that the Biden Administration lied never existed. It's been confirmed that China is building structures in contested waters. And now Vietnam's worry of Bejing's expanding military buildup has it buying cruise missiles from India. The dead body in a car boot found outside Iran's World Cup training camp in Mexico, the Mexican trade group dealer fired after making racist jestures at a South Korean influence during the World Cup, the leader of Tren de Aragua killed by a joint US/Venezuela action, and more hit the news. But while this is the last post for News of the World in the Weekly Gazette, the news itself never stops.

Tech Talk

Social media bans came into focus within the News of the Cyber World with Canada planning to restrict access to anyone sixteen years or younger. But they apparently didn't get the memo from teens in Australia that the same ban is a failure with the variaties of ways they've skirted around them. The poster child for crypto currency scams attempted to appeal his sentance, but the three-judge panel told FTX's Sam Bankman-Fried that the evidence used in court was very robust. Apple is in extreme hot water with their userbase as they are now scaling back what products will remain supported as they're ending support updates for all but the last four years of the iWatch. After protests ignited following the attempted beheading of a Belfast citizen by a Sudanese immigrant (noted in the article posted in News of the World), German state media began calling out Elon Musk and others who called for protest while simultaneously ignoring their calls for "Peaceful. Respectful. Together." However, more violence has ignited in Geneva by violent anti-capitalist protestors clashing with police, setting fires, and vandalising businesses over US President Trump's attendance. California rebuking Iranian hackers attack on their water system, the study of book over eBooks, and more hit this week's cybernews.

Games Development

Development Discussion

If anyone was wondering What's up with their fellow RMers, Steel Beast 6Beets can't help but think how cute a chubby Yasondre from Remi-Chan's game appears. But when kyonides tried using AI search built into search engines to find a Github link, he found the AI instead supplied his online resume. Meanwhile, Remi-chan's long war against RPGMaker Webs has come to an end, though that is with the site now closing. But for her project, Remi-chan has continued adding more flavor text while she received a walking sprite for one of her winged characters.

This week, mauve and heliotrope was the color scheme within the Maps and Screenshots thread as Remi-chan showcased a few of her recenttly received characters that appear within an alien cityscape at midnight. Catgirls and talking mice, together and without carnage, though a wasting may yet soon come.

Material Development

Scripts Database

RPGMaker XP (RGSS) Engine

Not long ago, kyonides crafted a script where the player could actively decide upon enemies they face from the random encounters roster with ChooseFoes XP. He had made various updates over the weeks, but then thought of a new option. Now, you may be able to flatly skip the battle altogether. But this was followed by one last update, one that ensures that battles are unavoidable and cannot be skipped based upon the terrain in which the party stands.

RPGMaker VX/VXAce (RGSS2/3) Engines

Defeating enemies over and over may be tiresome. However, kyonides thought to add a little diversity when a foe has been eliminated. With that, KEnemy Slain ACE allows one to display a custom message by their defeated opponent.

Plugins and Mods

RPGMaker MV/MZ Engines

A massive zip file is now available, a collection of RM WEBS's OWN RMMZ PAGES. It is up for a limited time, and created by DerVVulfman as there are efforts to archive RPGMakerWeb as it is now closing in preference to a new site owned by Gatcha Gatcha Games. The file size is over 3 Gigabytes and has the first main page of every RPGMaker MZ plugin thread with its code, links and attached JS scripts and image files saved.

Resources Database

2D Resources

In a game that has nomads within the open desert, not every encounter is the same, though they may dress alike for necessity. In that, the Various RMXP sprites by Ace_V now has a new sand dweller with a subtle change in their cloth windings.

Creativity Section

Art and Design

Against a clock of her own design, a maiden with a youthful appearance stands before all. But for the figure now within the gallery open wide presenting Remi-chan's Neato Arty thread thing!, dark are her deeds, darker than the deep indigo raiments in which she is clad. It was two months ago that the Eldrich Seer had previously appeared, though this time tempting the unwary with a smile. Only slightly faster in creation than her previous work, a speed draw of 10 minutes is available to watch Remi-chan's craft.

Literature

A creature of total malice, and in her mind a savior to all. It is within the lates pages of Remi-chan's Writing Snippets that we discover that a monster that has devised the deaths of billions in a war built upon hatred and license believes it her means to save mortalkind.

Well, that's it for this week.
