I believe RPG Maker 98 had some form of scripting, I've messed with the program back in 99 when rpg maker was new and cool back then but it wasn't hard to use nor difficult it was just...limiting from what I remember (if a 10 year old calls it limiting than by golly it's gotta be true). I haven't touched the program however since 99 and mainly because of rpg maker 2000 that was released in well 2000.
If your after 640X480 and snes type graphics than rmxp is a good tool, I personally would choose vx ace because of ruby 1.9.3 and has a better script library setup for you but just my 2 cents.
I was heard it use the same scripts form Xp version, i interested those sprites and tilesets where to be good put them on Ace if 98 will get more attention for Rpg maker collectors as i want to see why this one limits or kinds. I Hope soon enought to see this engine or more i never seen engines would wish to download, at last i watch on another site looks like Megaman (a user From rpg crisis) was posted rpg maker 97 and 98 i was really happy it uploaded.
If it doesn't consider a good rpg maker maybe is waste of time, anyway here the site i found
