In addition to the executable file containing the instructions, this archive contains a folder called "Source," where you can find the source code to modify and recompile.

I had already finished this tool, but I haven't been able to design a nice icon yet...

It's used to list RM2K and RM2K3 games that are in the same folder, making it easier to control volume and prevent full-screen launches, which often causes a "DirectDraw" error in older versions.

Considering the forum is being closed, I'm posting this here as the last thing I did for people who still enjoy games made with these two engines.

This tool is in English, but if the user's operating system is in one of the languages I've included the translation for, it will automatically change:
  • ES - Spanish
  • PT - Portuguese
  • GE - German
  • IT - Italian
  • JP - Japanese
If you want to change the language used, edit the LANG line in the INI file. For example:
INI:
[GAME]
LastGame=Sample1
1x=1
Fullscreen=0
Volume=40
Lang=PT

This tool recognizes games made in any version of RM2K, RM2K3, Maniacs, and even EasyRPG.

But why use this if EasyRPG allows listing games, with external sources among other things? I didn't make it to be a necessary tool, just to make it easier to run old games that can't have their RPG_RT.exe replaced and games that were encrypted via Molebox or similar, making extraction impossible.
