Re: "Bored? Make a game!"
FPS creator is terrible, and i have had experience with some RPG creators in the past and although the coding element is stripped that was never the hard part of RPG development, story line and game logic is the hardest thing to setup in an RPG.
helpful data? if your really intrested in making a game, learn to program!
second piece of helpful data: if you are really intrested in making an RPG and can write an intresting and captivating story pick up a copy of Neverwinter nights and use their editor to create your own game chapters, atleast then you know it will look good and have a solid engine behind it.

That is very true.
I was posting this for people who do not code. There are alot of people out there with great ideas that are not coders, nor that know a good one.
As for the NWN thing, I love that con-set but it is still not my own thing if I make a module. I can warp it to a tc but yeah. It is unplayable by anyone unless they have NWN. So it would be constrained in some ways.
Rpg Maker is actually cursed with limited resources for making characters, as in graphics. It can be tedious to the point of madness, I concur, but it the final output is really neat to see.
I found this new link shortly after I made the thread, but I was not online here then. It is an MMO game creation package. I got ahold of it, and it works. I have made a little world with a town, and some zones. I ran it as a test server for myself, and I almost pissed my pants. It was like a walmart-brand knockoff of WOW, but instead of the of fantasy characters, it was talking sporks (im dabbling, have mercy)
