I have released “Windowset Builder,” a tool for RPG Maker MZ.
Windowset Builder is an all-in-one tool for managing window skins and UI adjustments.
We plan to improve and expand features through updates, so please feel free to share any feature requests or areas where you think improvements could be made.
So I bought this tool and it looks great. My only issue is that my game uses 6 battlers and I this tool only seems to allow 4. Is there a way to change it to 6?
Related to this, it would be great if this can support creating a battle UI that’s laid out more like how MV was, where the party members are stacked vertically in a list instead of being shown horizontally side-by-side.
Note: I’m saying this before actually trying the tool, so maybe it can already do that.
Thank you for your feedback.
We will consider addressing your requests in a future update:
• Support for layouts with five or more characters
• Display party members in a vertical list, with menu commands displayed horizontally
We have released v1.0.2 of Windowset Builder.
We will continue to improve and enhance features.
v1.0.2 (2026-07-22)
Added support for horizontal display of commands in the main menu
Adjusted compatibility with VisuStella MZ (when BattleCore / MainMenuCore / PartySystem are detected, automatically disables overwriting of conflicting battle HUDs and menu layouts, prioritizing VisuStella’s display)
Fixed an issue where the frame might not render while loading window skins
Unified the height of command lines in the preview with the actual game
Fixed an issue where menus could not be opened for several seconds after closing them in projects with a large number of windows
Optimized processing for window decorations (corners/frames) and skin application to lighten scene transitions
Added support for applying window skins and positioning to windows created in SceneCustomMenu (import from custom tabs)
Fixed an issue where option text in the “Show Choices” event command would overflow and be cut off from the window
Added “Auto-adjust width” to window settings
Fixed an issue where the frame or corner decorations of background windows were drawn on top of foreground windows in scenes with overlapping windows
Fixed an issue where background scrolling did not move when using MADO-originated skins in custom scene windows
v1.0.1 (2026-07-17)
Added “Restore state before export” to the purpose-based guide (provides steps with the actual project name)
Added a “Open Backup Folder” button to settings
The application now launches in the OS language on first startup
Added “Variable Bar” to element windows (supports fixed value/variable maximums, label/number display, and 11 gauge shapes)
Added support for specifying variable bars, free text, and picture images per actor
Added options to hide the battle log and maintain battle status during enemy selection
Added “Show Actor Damage Popups” to battle log settings (displays above the status window in front view)
Fixed an issue where dragging an element would move the entire window, and an issue where element windows would become empty due to incorrect scripts
Fixed an issue where status element window rows would shrink and break when the party had 5 or more members (pages turn for the 5th member onwards)
Fixed an issue where the back operation did not work in windows configured with the “Close Scene” action on cancel
We have released v1.0.3 of Windowset Builder.
We will continue to add new features.
Thank you very much for your feedback.
We have released v1.0.4 of Windowset Builder.
We will continue to improve the software.
We have released v1.0.5 of Windowset Builder.
We will continue to strive for feature enhancements.
I purchased RPG Maker MZ from the old Tsukuru Store and am currently using it.
I understand that it is now sold exclusively on Steam, but are there any plans to offer a downloadable version?
I apologize for the inconvenience, given how busy you must be, but I would appreciate it if you could look into this when you have a moment.
Thank you for your continued support since the days of the old Tsukuru Store.
There is currently no planned release date for a digital download version.
If a digital download version is released, it will be distributed via Steam keys.
For purchases made at the old Tsukuru Store, please check the confirmation email you received after purchase, which contains the Steam key for RPG Maker MZ. Please install the Steam version of RPG Maker MZ, and then consider when to purchase Windowet Builder.
I purchased the “Windowset Builder” tool.
While you can customize the gauge shapes for “HP”, “MP”, and “TP” in battles,
I would like to be able to customize the “Time Progress Gauge” as well.
I am using Time Progress, but the design differs from the other three gauges, which creates a sense of incongruity.
Thank you for your purchase.
We will consider it as an item for the next version upgrade.
Hello, I would like to know how well this plugin supports the VS series. Can I use this plugin to modify windows created through the VS plugin?
Thank you for your question.
Based on my verification using the VisuMZ_Sample_Game_Project, here are the details:
Since VisuStella is quite large, there are untested combinations with other plugins and layout options, which may result in minor display discrepancies.
Thank you for the update!
It’s great that you can now change the color and position.
If possible, we would appreciate it if you could consider updating the time progress gauge in the future to also allow shape variations such as “diagonal bar,” “circle,” and “capsule.”
