FAQ
[spoiler=How to make it compatible with Dubealex's AMS]
In the CMS find these lines:
def write_save_data(file) # Make character data for drawing save file characters = [] for i in 0...$game_party.actors.size actor = $game_party.actors[i] characters.push([actor.character_name, actor.character_hue]) end # Write character data for drawing save file Marshal.dump(characters, file) # Wrire frame count for measuring play time Marshal.dump(Graphics.frame_count, file) # Increase save count by 1 $game_system.save_count += 1 # Save magic number # (A random value will be written each time saving with editor) $game_system.magic_number = $data_system.magic_number # Write each type of game object Marshal.dump($game_system, file) Marshal.dump($game_switches, file) Marshal.dump($game_variables, file) Marshal.dump($game_self_switches, file) Marshal.dump($game_screen, file) Marshal.dump($game_actors, file) Marshal.dump($game_party, file) Marshal.dump($game_troop, file) Marshal.dump($game_map, file) Marshal.dump($game_player, file) end
After Marshal.dump($game_player, file) add
Marshal.dump($ams, file)
You old save file won't work, but new ones will.
[spoiler=How to use only the save menu(Windowskin Version)]For the save menu put this script above main:
#==============================================================================
# ** Chrono Trigger Save Menu
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Raziel
# 2006-09-09
# Version 1.00
#==============================================================================
# ~Instructions
# Icons of the characters are used in the save menu.
# Make sure you put them in the icon folder and name them
# like you name your character file, for example the icon for
# Arshes would be 001-Fighter01
#
# For the chapter function, just use $game_system.chapter = "desired filename"
# in a call script command and then the savefile will have the name
# you choose.

Compatibility
Incompatible with some menu add ons. You'd have to edit some things to include them.
If you want to include something just ask, maybe I can help you.
Credits and Thanks
Credits to Squall / Selwyn for his cursor script
Credits to Der VVulfman for the ring menu.
Thanks to RPG Advocate for the party order changing method.
Thanks to MeisMe for helping me out fixing some bugs.
Thanks to SephirothSpawn and Stevo for betatesting.
Credits to Nin for the background picture of the windowskin version.
I don't know who made the windowskin or the icons, so if you know who made them, please PM me so I can add those to the credit list.
Author's Notes
In the instructions in the script it says use $game_system = "desired filename" to store the savefile's name, but it should be $game_system.chapter = "desired filename".
You can see it as an example within the demo when you click the event.
Enjoy
