RPG Maker includes a shared material **library with graphics and sounds**, used by most games made with this software, called **Run Time Package** (RTP). This material can be distributed only with games made with RPG Maker and only by their customers, so these games are depending on a material distribution only available on Japanese Windows Platforms in the case of RPG Maker 2000 and 2003. | ||

+ | So if you are using RPG Maker and you want to play a game made with RPG Maker 2000 and 2003 which they are depending on RTP files, you need a RTP replacement due to license restrictions in the original RTP. | ||
