read it, but the Japanese will appear as letter garble. And what good is it to
you then?

2. Introduction/legal junk
I wrote this to help drum up interest in this game among importers like myself.
I also wrote it for those of us who are struggling to make out heads or tails
of what's what in this game. This game is part of the Tsukuru series in Japan.
If you want to post this on any website, be my guest, but don't change anything
without telling me. Also, don't EVER try to make money off of this. It's just
like walking up to me and spitting in my face, so don't do it. Enough of that
icky legal mumbo-jumbo. Now, let's begin, shall we?

–‚–@ - Magic
•KŽE‹Z - Special Moves
ƒAƒCƒeƒ€ - Item
E‹Æ - Job
ŽålŒö - Main Characters
ŽålŒöƒp[ƒeƒB[ - Main Character Party
ƒ‚ƒ“ƒXƒ^[ - Monster
ƒ‚ƒ“ƒXƒ^[ƒ†ƒjƒbƒg - Monster Unit - This is how you place your newly created
monsters into battle.
ƒ}ƒbƒv - Map - The creation of the world your characters will be traveling is
done here.
ƒ‚ƒ“ƒXƒ^[‚Ì”z’u - Monster Appearance/Monster Map - Yep, you guessed it. All
thie random battles are handled here :-)
ƒ^ƒCƒgƒ‹ - Title
ƒVƒXƒeƒ€ŠÂ‹«Ý’è - System Settings - This is where you can put names in the
credits for parts of the system data. You can also set a password to get to
your data, in case little Timmy fires your RPG4 CD and destroys in 2 seconds
what took you 50+ hours to create. >_< But if you've been working on something,
and feel it absolutely sucks, you can delete all the system data in here as
well.
ƒVƒiƒŠƒIŠÂ‹«Ý’è - Pretty much the same as above. Again, all your painstakingly
created events are safe from little Timmy's curious thumbs.
ƒTƒ“ƒvƒ‹ƒ[ƒh - Sample Load - Replaces everything with the stuff from the
built-in sample game, Rappin' Magic.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.2 - “ÁŽêƒRƒ}ƒ“ƒh - Special Commands - If you've played the FF games, you
should have an idea how some of these work. :-) But, I' m going to assume you
haven't done so, and do my best to describe them.
“‚Þ - Steal - Steals from an enemy. You can set up what items are stolen in
the monster editor.
‹zŽû - Absorb - Steals HP.
ƒK[ƒh - Guard - Protects allies
‘h¶ - Revive - Self-explanatory
‘S‘ÌUŒ‚ Attack All - Again, self-explanatory
‚Ô‚ñ‚Ç‚é - Mug - Works like the above steal, but also does damage. :-)
ƒZƒ‹ƒtƒŠƒJƒo[ - Self Recover - another one that doesn't take a rocket
scientist to figure out. :-p This would work on a non-magic using char like a
robot.
‚à‚Ì‚Ü‚Ë - Mime - Repeats the last action done by another character.
‘K“Š‚° - Coin Toss - Uses money to deal damage. It doesn't show the actual coin
hitting the enemy though :-(
Ž¡–ü - Healing - I guess this would also work for non-magic using characters.
˜A‘±–‚–@ - Continuous Magic - This will allow you to cast 2 spells in one turn
:-))
“G‚Ì–‚–@ - Enemy Magic - Learn certain spells that only the enemy can use.
ƒQƒbƒg - Get - Captures a monster if its HP is low enough.
ƒŠƒŠ[ƒX - Release - Works in conjunction with the above Get command. Calls
forth the captured enemy to perform a single attack.
There are more, but these are the ones that I could make any sense out of.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.3 - E‹ÆƒLƒƒƒpƒVƒeƒB[ Job Capacity - These are abilities you can set to a
character.
Again, there are a couple more, but I can't quite make sense of them.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.4 - §ŒäƒRƒ}ƒ“ƒh Control Commands - These are what run your events in the
scenario editor.
ƒƒbƒZ[ƒW - Message - This is how dialogue is handled.
ꊕÏX - Change Location - Like the name says, this command takes you from
one location on a map to another.
‘¼ƒCƒxƒ“ƒgŽÀs - Event swap (?)
‚Q‘𕪊ò - 2 choices - This is basically where you can have it say Yes or No,
or come up with your own.
‘½•ªŠò - Multi-choice - Pretty much the same as the above but you can have up
to 4.
ƒXƒƒbƒg•ªŠò - Slot choice - This is basically the same as the above, but it
chooses options at random.
ƒXƒCƒbƒ` - Switch - For the uninitiated, a switch is basically a way of telling
the game that a certain event has been completed so that it does not repeat
itself.
•Ï” - Variables - This is where you can have fun with all sorts of mini-games.
The uses for this are almost infinite.
ƒEƒFƒCƒg - Wait - Pauses for however long you set it.
BGM - Duh.... changes background music.
SE - Another no-brainer. Plays sound effects.
‚¨“XEh - Inn/store - You can determine what items are sold and how much it
costs to rest here.
ŠŽ•i•ÏX - (something to do with items) - Basically, this gives or takes
items from your inventory.
‰æ–ʃGƒtƒFƒNƒg - Special effects - This is where you can set up things like
explosions or lightning strikes.
E‹Æ’ljÁ - Add jobs - Gain new jobs. A good example would be the crystal shards
in FF5.
E‹Æ‹§•ÏX - Delete jobs - Basically the opposite of the above..
ŽålŒö–¼‘O•ÏX - Change character name - Changes a character's name to whatever
you pick here.
ƒp[ƒeƒB[\¬ - Party organization - Adds/Deletes party members.
ƒp[ƒeƒB[•\Ž¦ - Party indication - You can have it where everyone follows the
leader, or only the leader is shown.
ƒp[ƒeƒB[ˆÚ“® - Party movement - automatically moves the party around in the
directions you specify.
“VŒó - Weather - Calls a weather effect like rain, snow, or underwater.
ƒ‚ƒ“ƒXƒ^[‚Æ키 - Fight monster - This is how you do boss battles. You can set
the music for the battle as well as the music for winning and losing here.
敨 - Vehicle - Travel over land, sea, and air with this option. You could
have a dragon on land or a golem in the sea, but try to make it believable.
ƒ^ƒCƒgƒ‹ - Title - Displays the lovely title screen you made in the title
editor.
ƒGƒ“ƒfƒBƒ“ƒO - Ending - End credits roll.
Well, that's all for now. More as I figure them out.
