I would take a look at wildflower's tutorial. It will answer all of your rpg scripting questions for 2.7

The wiki has been updated for 2.7 RPG Scripting, too. Although wildflower has better quality and explanations...the wiki covers more on the subject. I would recommend looking at both. First the wiki, then wildflower.
Best of luck!

@java: that's what I've been doing, I saved both as pdfs for convenience and off-line use. I must admit that both are lacking in some departments. However, that may just be me, as I sometimes have an IQ lower than that of a brick. During those times, I just need a simple, step-by-step tutorial that says, "open this folder, open this exact file, add this in, save, open PAS, then marvel at ye work."

Yea, I saved mine as .txt files on my flashdrive. Comes in handy when your internet is down.

Kid_Matthew and I are currently working on a video tutorials series for RPG Script and Cubescript. It will be out in about 1-2 weeks probably. Depending on when we get time to make them. But yea, they're going to be step by step simple tutorials, just like you described! You might want to check those out when they come around. Best of luck on learning 2.7 RPG Script! :D:D

Alright, thanks a lot for that info, that really sounds like what I need. Now that I understand guiimage and that RPG is up, ready and good to use, I think I might be able to start on some of my projects.

If you ever need help with scripting and some basic mapping, I'm your man. Apparently, I can't start coding my own game because I have to teach RPG Script and Cubescript to my fellow coders first. :/ Best of luck on your projects!

Not you, I meant my team of coders that are working on AD with me. This means my friends from school who also like computers and programming. Sorry for the misleading post. :D

Ah, I see. None of my friends want to have anything to do with game making. Just gaming (game playing specifically). So, for now, it's just me. However, I can't decide whether I should be a game designer or an engineer. Maybe I'll just combine'em. Create the computers which run the games. Now THAT would be great.
