Hakuen Studio Help Windows for RPG Maker MV MZ
A downloadable Rpg Maker Plugin
Want to support me?
Introduction
By default, only some Rpg Maker Mz scenes have a help window. And yet, they are not always saying something.
This plugin adds help windows in scenes that did not have them (Options for example), as well as provides the possibility of inserting content in each one.
Features
Adds and makes it possible to edit help window content in the following scenes/menus:
• Main menu.
• Item Category
• Skills.
• Equipment.
• Options.
• Save / Load.
• End Game.
• Title Screen.
• Name window.
• Shop.
• Battle.
• Choices.
• Select item.
• Input number.
In addition to the texts, you can also decide for bottom or top position and number of lines.
How to Use
■ Plugin Parameters:
The plugin parameters were structured mostly as follows:
- Enable - True to use this help window in-game, false to not use.
- Position - Top or bottom.
- Lines - Choose a number of lines.
- Text - The text that will be inserted in the help window according to each command(Symbol).
There is also a plugin command to change the choice help text and the number input help text. You need to use them before you call the choice or number input command.
NOTE: Mv version is a little bit different than the MZ one.

I have a question about the symbols in the plugin's contents : Should I type each symbol sequentially (by following the IDs like in the database)?
Hello Eli (Hakuen Studio)! I love this plugin, but have a problem with hide/show help window. When I use plugin command to hide it, then I can't select window to hide, there is only "numberInput" in drop-down list :( Can you help me?
Hi there!
I'm sorry this plugin needs a revision!
For now, the Choice Help Window will show automatically, every time you set choice texts with the plugin command. Like this:
And if you want to not show the Choice Help Window, you just need to not use the plugin command before the choice:
When I made the revision, I will let you know ^^
Thank you so much Eli! Actually I was trying to hide help windows from menu commands ^^' but choices will be helpful, too! Not sure if works on the same rules.
Oh, I get it.
Well, on the menu scene you need to go into the plugin parameters and enable/disable each help window.
There is no way to enable/disable them inside game, like the choice help
I see. Thank you anyway!
Just for you to know, I made an update!
Hello. I' m Gange Satoya.
Thanks for the handy plugin!
I have one request.
Would it be possible to implement an option to select the alignment of the help text?
If there is a left, center, or right, I can use it depending on the situation.
For example, in the menu screen, I would like to display the text in the center of the help window width.
I would appreciate it if you could consider it.
Thank you so much.
Hi friend!
I believe that is a little out of the scope of this plugin. If you want to center the text, try to find a plugin that adds this via escape codes, like this one:

Hello. Thanks for the reply!
I didn't know there was such a plugin!
Thank you for telling me about it!
I'll check it out!
