DynRPG est un plugin pour RPG Maker 2003 de type Standart Development Kit (SDK), ce qui signifie qu'il permet d'ajouter ses propres extensions à RPG Maker en utilisant le C++. Il permet de simplifier l'intégration de ces extensions (auparavant, des patchs), sous forme de plugins.
Exemples d'ajouts possibles : ajout d'une frame d'animation aux charset, créer des string variables (avec des lettres)...

Pour ajouter un plugin à son jeu, il suffit de l'ajouter dans un dossier prévu à cet effet, appelé DynPlugins. C'est aussi simple pour les supprimer.

A noter que ce patch n'est pas utilisable sur la version Steam de RPG Maker 2003 (v.1.12a actuellement, mais cela concerne des versions antérieures). Si vous importez votre projet DynRPG sur la version Steam, vous conserverez une partie des ajouts, mais vous en perdrez vraisemblablement d'autres.
Il est également non compatible avec RPG Maker 2000.

Fonctionnalités :
- Il est possible d'ajouter ses propres fonctions.
- Limite des images utilisables montée à 2000. A partir de l'image à l'ID 1001, l'image n'est pas effacée en changeant de map.
- Fixe un certain nombre de bugs et ajoute quelques améliorations à l'éditeur

Les différentes versions :
Version 0.32 (version actuelle, par Cherry, PepsiOtaku et bugmenot) : https://www.rewking.com/dynrpg/
Version 0.20 (version officielle, stable, par Cherry) >>> https://rpg-maker.cherrytree.at/dynrpg <<<

Code source :
Depuis fin mai 2021, DynRPG est open source et disponible sur GitHub: https://github.com/CherryDT/DynRPG

Il existe aujourd'hui (en 2021) un autre patch (Maniacs), celui-là pour la version officielle de RPG Maker 2003 (Steam). Les deux patchs étant très différents dans leur approche, Mack a écrit ce comparatif pour aider à les différencier.
Comme il est très sympathique, il a également mis ce prototype à disposition pour ceux qui souhaiteraient voir un exemple d'utilisation.

Post original :

DynRPG is a plugin SDK for RPG Maker 2003. “SDK” means “Standard Development Kit”, and in this case it means that everyone can create his own extensions to the RPG Maker software now, as long as he knows how to use C++. DynRPG not only offers the average programmer access to the world of “patching”, but it also provides the basis for far more powerful extensions than all “patches” made for the RPG Maker before.

DynRPG works using plugins. Plugins can be written in C++, they will be loaded when the game starts and they are notified of certain events (like the drawing of a new frame, the writing to a variable, etc.) and are allowed to react to these events.

What in past were “patches” are now going to be simple plugins. Any game using DynRPG can be extended by a new feature by simply putting a plugin file into a folder called DynPlugins. That’s far easier than “patching”, something which many game makers are even afraid of, because they think it might harm their game. And if somebody doesn’t like a certain plugin, all he needs to do is deleting it.

So, DynRPG is beneficial to both plugin makers and game makers:

- Plugin makers can use a simple C++ library to write powerful plugins and distribute them to other game makers!
- Game makers get many new possibilities just by adding these plugins to their game!
- Professional game makers are able to write plugins which exactly fit to their game’s needs, for example they might write part of their action battle system in C++ or apply a custom design to the default battle system, or maybe they even create a whole minigame using DynRPG… the possibilities are endless!

There is also a complete documentation, online and as CHM file in the download as well.

Features of the patch:
- The DynRPG Patch allows you to use the DynRPG plugins!
- The DynRPG Patch allows you to use 2000 pictures, of which those starting with ID 1001 won't be erased when the map changes.
- The DynRPG Patch fixes several bugs of the RPG Maker and introduces a few improvements.
More info here: http://rpg-maker.cherrytree.at/dynrpg/patch.html

Features of the SDK:
- Access to many game objects, for example:
--- Actors
--- Monsters (current monster party)
--- Current map
--- Events
--- Pictures
--- Screen (!!!)
--- Switches and variables
--- System settings
--- Music and sound
--- and more
- Catching of events and the ability to react on them and in some cases prevent the default, for example:
--- When an event is drawn
--- When a picture is drawn
--- When certain windows in the battle are drawn
--- When actors and monsters are drawn in battle
--- When an actor or monster takes an action in battle
--- Every time the screen is refreshed
--- When an event command is executed
--- and more

Just think what possibilities this brings you! Suggestions:
- A "pointer everything" plugin
- A "bigger charsets" plugin
- A "nearly pixelmovement" plugin
- A "alpha channel" plugin
- A "custom status window in battle" plugin
- and MUCH, MUCH more.

Really interesting and powerful this thing becomes only when there are good plugins. At the moment I am at the beginning with that, thus please be patient until useful plugins are created!

There is one small sample plugin so far, which shows conditions in battle using icons. It's described and available for download here at the bottom of the page.

There is also a contest for plugin programmers: http://www.rpg-maker.fr/index.php?page=forum&id=19912 (terminé en 2020)

DynRPG is now also open source: https://github.com/CherryDT/DynRPG
