RPG Maker MZ - Menu Builder (DLC)

This DLC is for people making games in RPG Maker MZ who are tired of the default menus. If you want your title screen, inventory or settings screen to look the way you imagined, this is the tool for it. There are a lot of options, but you can learn them gradually, one window at a time. Why grab it: - Your first evening goes into building a simple menu with selectable entries that leads to another scene. - Entries can be hidden or locked based on variables, switches and items in the inventory, so the menu reacts to player progress. - Backgrounds, foregrounds and animated pictures are added right inside the menu, with no separate script for each case. - On-screen buttons can run code, and hovering the mouse selects the entry automatically. You get the Steam gift sent to your account: after payment, send us your Steam quick invite link and we add you as a friend and send the game as a gift. The base RPG Maker MZ must already be on your account, otherwise the DLC won't run. Region: Global, any Steam account region. *Tutorial videos are now available (more to come). Please see “View the manual”. ・Allows for basic menu building and linking to other scenes ・Can execute script calls AND events ・Can setup backgrounds and foregrounds ・Can setup touch buttons ・Can modify UI according to needs Custom menus must be setup in the plugin parameters prior to calling them in game. For each menu, you MUST/ARE REQUIRED TO setup the selection window as that will hold the selectable options for the menu scene. From above, screenshot from demo, you can see that you only need to setup the selection window and basic window if you want to permanently display information on the scene. Setup the dimension configuration to control the size and position of the selection window and the Window Font and Style for the font settings and window skin/opacity. Item Width/Height will control the selection box size and max columns will determine the number of selections aligned on horizontal axis. The important thing here is the selection options You can setup requirements to display or even select the menu option based on: ・Variables ・Switches ・Items ・Weapons (Not equipped) ・Armors (Not equipped) Static add a graphic over the scene backgrounds when the option is selected and animated graphic will change the graphic on scene to use the set data. Pictures are stored images which can be drawn based on window settings. You can setup a scene button which when mouse over will force select the option and when clicked will execute the code in the "Code Execution" parameter. ------------ Patch note:2026/10/2 Adjustment: Code adjusted for compatibility with master editor software. Delete: Removed editor button function. It is unnecessary when using the master editor software. Fix: Function calls expecting arrays were "caught" Fix: Needed to reload custom scene when changing any variable manually. Now the scene reloads automatically. Fix: If using non-number values for window dimensions, it can cause the scene to crash. Now it will process windows in a try...catch block to determine if non-number is valid number value when evaluated. Fix: Issue where if mouse is outside project window, the menu selection would not work using keyboard Patch note:2025/8/22 Fix: Issue with drawing pictures when trying to parse already parsed data.
