Hi!

Recently, some people talked about a project shown in Tilburg'04, made with Dante 2 editor.

Does anybody have any information about that game??... who's making it?? is there any screenshot anywhere to have a look at it??

I think about 50% of MSX users have tried to make games with DANTE2... What I don't know is if anyone has ever finished one

Is Dante2 that Japanese development system? I remember a fair in Tilburg or Bussum on which the Japanese thought everyone would be very interested in the development tool. In Japan, it's a huge success. To their surprise though, no one seemed to care. Uhhhhh, that system is called DM-system, I believe? Something else? Bit confused, now :/

@Latok

Dante 2 has english menu descriptions, so it can be used without the knowledge of japanese language at all

@Sonic

I would, but I guess I have too much projects going on, because it would sum up much time to get into it

I once visited a japanese site containeing some RPG's made with Dante.
So there has to be at least some japanese stuff for it.

However if I remember correct. Dante 2 menu's were translated however the user could not type english text or am I wrong here ?

Dante 2 is an 'RPG-maker' for MSX (well.. a birdview game maker perhaps? ) . DM-System is more something like NestorBASIC.

hehe, that will be me I guess...

I am currently working on an rpg using Dante-2. And I showed some of it in Tilburg.
It is far from finished at the moment, but I am making steady progress.

When will it be finished you might wonder... well when it's finished... I haven't got a clue really.

There is a great English tranlation (look here: http://msxfiles.sites.uol.com.br/maine.htm) and Dennis Lardenoye wrote a manual on Futuredisk years ago. This manual had some errors, but still is rather essential.

In time I plan to create a Dante-2 section on my website (http://www.sdsnatcher.net)

While I am at it; Dante-2 uses Musica for music. This is the only thing I need some help with... So, If you are familiar with musica and you want to create some cool musics for my rpg, please contact me!
