Crafting & Skills for RPG Maker MZ

Today, I’m happy to release a user-friendly, scalable, crafting and skill progression plugin for RPG Maker MZ. It is a complete plug-and-play framework with no scripting required. Setup lives in plugin parameters or bulk CSV import, so it fits both rapid prototypes and large RPGs with hundreds of craftable items. As players craft, they gain EXP in custom skills, allowing them to craft more advanced products. The skill system is fully integrated and configurable, so each crafting type can have its own progression path.

Highlights

• Define custom crafting skills with names, icons, descriptions, and XP curves

• Skills level up through crafting and gate access to recipes

• Require ingredients, tools, gold, switches, variables, or skill levels to craft

• Customize window layout, fonts, icons, colors, and labels

• Show progress bars, visual effects, and level-up messages

• Import recipes and skill data in bulk using CSV files

• Unlock recipes and categories dynamically through events

• Save and restore skill levels, unlocked content, and player preferences

• Two-panel layout for clear recipe browsing and crafting actions

• No scripting required. Configure everything in the Plugin Manager
