does it let you use English text? i thought they were going Japanese-only with this. but then again, you said "hacked." i'm just curious
by the way, i'll re-upload Gspx.zip to dnet if you want me to. i totally forgot about it until now

Thanks for the info.
Looking at the Himeya site, I see what you mean about the price thing. I was prepared to pay $60 maybe, even $70, but... $98?! O_o;; Wow.

No, no English text, to my knowledge (Romanji probably, but no doubt a very simplified charset). I just want to buy the software so I can freely download the English-hacked version. The actual Japanese software probably won't even work on my system, since I don't have a Japanese OS. Wouldn't matter since I can't read it... yet
EDIT:

Ah, that's okay, no need. I stopped linking to it a while ago anyway. The plan now is to redo it from scratch with 2k3... too bad I'll only have a couple of weeks to do that, since my intensive courses start very soon. Maybe I'll just do a MMCafe RPG or something.

well, it'll be there if you do wanna link hehe
thanks for the info on 2003. i'd really like to buy it and use it myself. i guess they don't trust us English-speakers (Americans). well, i don't blame them
EDIT:
funny you mention this now. i've been doing some heavy work myself on that age-old project (story is 70-80% complete). i will try to harness the power of RPG Maker 2000, and create something perverse to my liking!
