Party Management Questions (Problem Solved, Thankyou, Geiger)

[Freakyfrankie]

Hihi, I was just wondering, how do I make the party in Chrono Trigger like the party in Crimson Echoes? I want to be able to switch Crono to player 2 position and make Marle player 1, or just be able to move Crono. He's unmovable in the party roster screen. I'm new to the modding scene, so I'm not sure what tools would be used for this. But I catch on fast. ^__^ Any help is loved! <3

Getting far enough in the game allows Crono to not be leader, but if you want it before that part in the game, I'm not sure of something that can do that exist, or if it would mess up the game due to Crono needing to be the leader.

Okay, I got it. I put this code into ZSNES after going through the offsets list.

7F01DF00 All the characters can be switched around in whatever order (making Marle or magus party leader, etc). So far I've had no problems with it. Dialogue and such continues as normal.

Thank you Geiger! *bow*

You might find this thread helpful for info on setting individual bits to lock character(s):

Oh dang, thanks J!!! That was totally what I was looking for!

I found that having Crono out of the party causes some things to go wrong in the early parts of the game before Crono leaves the party. This includes Crono not being there TO DIE during that sequence, all 3 chars make their comment and the game cannot continue because there is no Crono to Control.

lol, I haven't gotten that far into the game. I usually keep Crono in the party, but change him out for position 2, and have Marle or Lucca lead the party. Sometimes Magus. ^.^ I have had some problems in the scene when he is escaping prison. I had him in second position and the game locked up in some parts and battles. (Though I'm playing on the hardtype patch too, so that *might* have some effect. I highly doubt it though.)
