Speaking of pre-release >_>
Open it up in any hex editor, and go to offset 3AC305.
It should read as 92.
It modifies the Gato event in the millenial fair, more specifically, what monster loads into the room. So, editing that byte, will change what monster from the beta version of Chrono Trigger loads into the room for you to fight.
Woo!
I took a quick run through with it, and found a few interesting things..
Most interesting (that I found, who knows what you all may find..
)
seems to be a different look for Zeal.
and it seems that this is a place holder graphic (or something) for monsters not done yet. Though many monsters have this image, they all have their own names, attacks, etc. Apparently just their graphics werent finalized.
I also noticed alot of different palette swaps that werent in the original, and some of the animations, attacks, and stuff are definately NOT finished, so there might be some cool stuff (I didn't have time to fight a long fight with all 255 monsters..)
And...if you wish to play around with the event code some, all the bytes around the above offset are for the Gato event, lots of neat stuff you can do with it.

When Acmlm puts the old back-up online for archival purposes, I'll look for the prerelease thread and see if there's more ways to load rooms. It's not online yet, but theyre working on it. Acmlm's new boards are finally up and running though.

Im tempted to paste it over Crono's map sprite and cycle through a couple palettes to get a better view of it.
In fact, I think I'll do that.
Now that I look at it again, Crono's overworld waiting animation is different...

I don't know if you all knew about this or not, but I recently found an old screen capture I took from a tile editor, while I was going through finding and decompressing the graphics from the rom. In the decompressed map characters file, below all the other characters, is an unfinished soldier or something.
Pretty interesting.
If you want to view it, use lunar decompress and decompress hex offset 5A732.
I wonder if this was an unfinished character, or maybe a map resident, like on Wild Arms, where some townsfolk could walk the world map...

General Discussion / Causing much grief

It will be back up shortly, they are moving to another host, and starting fresh. They lost the last 4 months worth of posts (they found a backup, but they arent' going to use it, it will be on display for viewing). I feel kind of lost without it, like a fish out of water...
I have a few more things I found out while hacking around in it (which is pretty much all the time).
Someone told me that if the sprite assembly data was figured out, making a custom character or custom monster would be a snap. Well, I looked at it, and it does seem fairly simple ...
Here is what I have on it so far...
Chrono's Sprite Assembly starts at 1C29B0
For each frame of animation, there are 32 bytes that determine what peices of graphic to use to make up the frame of animation. The 32 bytes consist of 2 byte integers that tell the game what pieces to use, and 8 bytes following each frame of 32 bytes, I havent messed with these, but I think these set the size of distribution of the 32, like the death animation is longer than it is tall, for example.
Evil Peer has it in his offsets doc, but it just marked the location of it. I just looked into it a bit.

Sorry Zealty, I don't think a list exists for those values that I know of....
I was going to look further in Acmlm's for a way around your no crono problem, but Acmlm's seems to have....died 0_0
Yeah, the Merchant and Knight runner were graphically hacked by myself. I eventually plan on making a full blown hack one day...
Some fun pics I thought I'd share....
These were all made possible by JLukas, who came out of nowhere with some neat data that can be added to the zip file. I coded 3 small editors based on it.

Here's the update to my post in the CT spooky music thread.
These offsets are the summary of the sprite creation data starting at offset 240200
Main tables for player characters, NPCs and enemies
5 bytes each
1 - sprite starting location?
2 - starting animation?
3 - pallete
4 - sprite assembly
5 - sprite size? 00 - standard size
The enemy table uses the same 5 byte setup, but then 5 unknown bytes before the next entry.
Offset start 24F200 end 24F222 Player character
Offset start 24F223 end 24F722 NPC
Offset start 247F23 end 24F7FF unused space
Offset start 24F800 end 2501FF Enemy
Example usage:
Enter these patch codes:
E4F00006
E4F00106
E4F00206
E4F00306
E4F00400 <- not neccessary but I listed it anyway
Crono now has Magus' sprite in action screens (but not battle mode, that's somewhere else)
...
Enemy and NPC sprites are interchangable
Example usage:
F800F000
E4F6001D
E4F60112
E4F60287
E4F6030C

Good thing I grabbed all that before Acmlm's boards died...
and the 3 small editors to edit some of that are here:
http://tekhacks.net/bored/attach/117.zip
I was going to look further in Acmlm's for a way around your no crono problem, but Acmlm's seems to have....died 0_0
Yeah, the Merchant and Knight runner were graphically hacked by myself. I eventually plan on making a full blown hack one day...
Some fun pics I thought I'd share....
These were all made possible by JLukas, who came out of nowhere with some neat data that can be added to the zip file. I coded 3 small editors based on it.

Here's the update to my post in the CT spooky music thread.
These offsets are the summary of the sprite creation data starting at offset 240200
Main tables for player characters, NPCs and enemies
5 bytes each
1 - sprite starting location?
2 - starting animation?
3 - pallete
4 - sprite assembly
5 - sprite size? 00 - standard size
The enemy table uses the same 5 byte setup, but then 5 unknown bytes before the next entry.
Offset start 24F200 end 24F222 Player character
Offset start 24F223 end 24F722 NPC
Offset start 247F23 end 24F7FF unused space
Offset start 24F800 end 2501FF Enemy
Example usage:
Enter these patch codes:
E4F00006
E4F00106
E4F00206
E4F00306
E4F00400 <- not neccessary but I listed it anyway
Crono now has Magus' sprite in action screens (but not battle mode, that's somewhere else)
...
Enemy and NPC sprites are interchangable
Example usage:
F800F000
E4F6001D
E4F60112
E4F60287
E4F6030C

Doesn't the PSX CT have a CT SNES rom on it? I remember hearing something about the rom being on there, and the psx emulates the game (but throws movies in). I wish I had a copy to check out, if there is a rom on there, I'd like to check it out in the ct text editor...

Now THAT would be awesome. Or, if anyone knew how to make a windows help file, there could be a Chrono Trigger Rom help file, filled with all the documents, links, pictures... Or that pdf format of Adobe's. Zip file is cool,help files and pdf files could be cool too, since they can contain text and pictures and links, and still be 1 file.

No, I'm looking at her decompressed graphics (from both roms) and she has no unused animations I'm afraid. She couldn't be playable anyway though, as the game has the playable characters uncompressed, whilst Schala is compressed. If the pointers that point to Chrono's Graphics were changed to Point to that of Schala, it would be garbled. It can only display uncompressed 4bpp graphics for the main characters. I did however change them to point to Robo instead of Chrono, making for an interesting play through.
And....here is a zip file containing all of the known (that I know of at least) docs and files CT hacking related. Some of it isn't all that spectacular, but interesting none the less. 4.5 megabyte download though.

That would be a neat addition to your site, I'd love to see it. There's so many tile editors available, some suck some don't. Some will import palettes from zsnes savestates, or gif or png pictures to apply the correct colors. I'll try to get the correct palettes for you, and post how to get the two files to display correctly.
They won't display like they do in the game, the game puts the tiles together, and reuses tiles, and flips the tiles, etc...
Walking animation for example, top 4 tiles stay the same, bottom two tiles change. Or similar. To save space in the rom mostly, instead of having a whole Schala for each frame of animation. (not just CT, all games are like this, which makes ripping sprites from roms no fun, better to do it from emulators by disabling all layers but the sprite layers and ripping from screenshots).
I havent seen any other Prerelease rom hacking work done besides that old thread you started waaaaay back when.
I could send you a big juicy zip file through email with all known Chrono Trigger Rom Hacking information, docs, files, notes, offsets, etc.

With a tile viewer or editor. I'll link to some for you below. Yeah, I do beleive I have Schala and Toma in the prerelease.... *checks*
Ok, Schala is located at 19E7A3 in the prerelease rom, and the decompressed file with her graphics should be 19E7A3.smc (i just named it smc, it makes no difference about the file extension)
And...Toma...Toma.... oh dear...I don't see him here.... He could still be in there, I just did a quick run through. I definitely have him decompressed in this zip file http://www.angelfire.com/in3/chickenlump/ctugraphics.zip.
Which is a zip file of ALL the graphics decompressed from the FINAL release of the game, which means much more graphics.
In the final release rom Toma is located at... 1A5AA4 so his file in that zip would be 1A5AA4.smc
Viewing these files in a tile editor will take a little tweaking to get looking right, as they have no palettes assigned to them right off the get go (but they should still be recognizeable)
OK, my favorite Tile viewer, editor is
http://www.romhacking.com/utils/general/graphics/tiled/TilEd2002v064b2600.exe
I named the files as smc so that the tile editors will open them up directly in snes mode, so no need to fiddle with that.

General Discussion / Causing much grief

Hey there. I had so much trouble using lunar compress when I first started using it also. The creator of it intended it to be used as part of other programs, to decompress on the fly, for editors and what not, he never intended people to manually decompress things (like I do anyway 
)
The offsets for almost everything are different for the prerelease and final release rom, including graphics, compressed or otherwise. I even think I found a couple of unused graphics in there, (or I was just tired or not looking at them correctly).
I have a zip file here that has all the decompressed graphics that I found, and a text file that has the locations of the graphics in the prerelease rom.
If these don't have what your looking for, I could help you out by diving into it again, it's a pleasure anyway, Chrono Trigger is timeless for me.

and if you find what you need, but want to learn the lunar utilities a little more, just let me know. I gave a brief (uber brief) head start on it here...
