Chrono Cross Modification / Stat boost and penalty element level

« on: February 03, 2023, 12:56:01 pm »

Stat boost and penalty elements are level 4 elements but they can be put on any level of the grid. From what I have read, there seems to be no penalty for putting them on level 1 compared to level 8. If someone has found out that there is indeed a difference, that would be interesting to hear too.

But, my real question is: When you consider the usefullness of the best stat boosts and penalties, what element level they should actually be? (Numble, for example, is already useless for players because at best it drops enemy's evasion by 1 from those rare enemies that have evasion slightly higher 0. So, please consider only the better ones.)

Chrono Cross Modification / Pip evolution removal

« on: January 23, 2023, 09:40:44 am »

I have found a patch in these forums that fixes Pip grid glitch, but do we have any such Pip specialist here who would know how to completely stop Pip evolution mechanic. I think I could do it by editing every battlescripts but that would be quite unoptimal way if it can be done by simply zeroing some data somewhere else.

EDIT: Simple solution: Give the normal Pip the model of the fully evolved Pip bc model 2B, 2C or 2D is always a condition for the evolution to happen. This solution also allows the use of Pip's techs that require wings to look sensisble. Problem solved.

Chrono Cross Modification / Emulator that can handle 2048 ISO format?

« on: January 15, 2023, 02:42:36 pm »

Does anyone know an emulator that can run chrono cross 2048 format ISO file? I am doing a lot of testing and would really like if I could skip the process of converting the ISO file to playable format. (Today I found out how I can read status effects in battlescript. Will be really useful.)

EDIT: Also, any program that could more easily edit tbt tables would be great...
EDIT: I made Excel sheet that should make tbt tables quicker to edit.
