> noobs will be noobs. Trust me, you can make a sticky solving every possible problem, and nobody will read it. There will always be people who the kind of noobs who are just willfully ignorant and want everything spoon fed to them.All the info in the world at their finger tips won't help these people. At the same time there are noobs who want to learn, but are simply new. These are the people you have the info for so they grow out of noobhood to become contributing members to the community..

so why is elements.ini included if it doesn't do anything? *sigh* you don't have to actually answer that, I guess its more of a rhetorical question than anything. ( and a perfect example of why docs are needed) > You'd have to ask him about the wiki, but we'd have to put in a lot of effort to kick start documentation at this point. No more effort than answering the same noob questions all the time on the forums because there is no organized source of information. But hey what do I know? This whole idea of read mes and help files is a passing fad i think …. /sarcasm

You keep saying there isn't much to it.. i have been using it for 2 days… I don't know it inside and out like you guys do,I've been reading and playing around with it, and a lot of it is pretty intuitive,but at the same time a lot of it isn't..Not to mention trying to learn anything in such a disorganized way takes longer. Just as a purely hypothetical example lets say my car stereo needed the time set, i could look in the manual (yes i'm the nerd that actually holds onto his manuals for games and electronics! :) ) or I could ask a bunch of my friends if they knew how to set it and hope for the best... what does elements ini do? responses.ini ? I've been poking around in stats ini... is adding a new usuable stat as simple as adding an entry there? do i need to modify the gui at all? scripting? is there information on what those entries AddPerStr=0 AddPerDef=0 AddPerMagi=10 AddPerSpeed=0 do? how do I know if a change requires editing the source? how about a list of global default hotkeys? is there somewhere I can edit to change those? I don't know who runs things around here, but have you considered setting up a wiki? it would be a good way to an official reference to point to and still have community contribution, but a bit of quality control as well on the information presented to total noobs to the program like myself. I know its a free program, but the easier it is to pick up and use with out all the hassle to find simple bits of info,the more people will continue to use it and make games that we can all enjoy playing! :)

I've been playing around with this engine a couple days now and I'm curious if there is anywhere i can go some official help files of some sort. The help tab in the program itself the topics are all empty,with a link to this forum. Reading through the sticky list of "tutorials" is somewhat frustrating since there seems to be sort of quality control in effect, there are stickied tutorials with information either wrong, vague or just written half assed . I don't want to sound like a jerk, but it seems like 75% of the "tutorials" in that list end with " maybe i'll add more later.. i'm too tired right now" or something to that effect. So yeah, not trying to flame or anything, just looking for a good reference of info.

Hello, I am also getting the "error loading scripting engine" error. I am running windows 7 64 bit. I think the problem is related to the fact windows won't let me install in compatibility mode for XP (or any OS before vista) for the library installer.  I tried manually registering the msscript.ocx file like described in this thread and it tells me it was successful,but trying to start the server still gives me the error. I have made sure the library files are 64 bit and not 32. Has this happened with anyone else? I would try and do a reinstall but the library doesn't have any entry in my add/remove programs area. thanks in advance ***EDIT**** I was able to fix this problem by installing the library installer from here: http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/ELIS.exe.. Still no idea why it wouldn't work the other way, but oh well.. just wanted to report back in case anyone else has the same issue. I'm not sure if having them both installed on top of each other will introduce any problems down the line, but at least it loads now. :) Also I thought I should mention my firewall (comodo) warned me the installer I linked up there was malware…
