Temporal Flux is the ultimate editor for Chrono Trigger. Here are Evil Peer's words, from http://board.acmlm.org/thread.php?id=8041
+
Welcome to the Chrono Compendium encyclopedia. Most of the encyclopedia was written by [[User:ZeaLitY|Zeality]], with contributions in weapons from [[User:Leebot|Leebot]] and in accessories from [[User:KWhazit|KWhazit]]. Several others helped in minor ways, and CuteLucca provided many scans of Chrono Trigger art. To learn more about the site and its projects and goals, visit [[Chrono_Compendium:About]]. If you're into ROM hacking and want to help add research to the modification encyclopedia, request permissions by e-mailing the [mailto:chronocompendium@gmail.com Compendium].

Now comes the part where I make many of you very happy and a few of you very sad. You see, the teaser patch was just a big swerve. Temporal Flux is not a ROM hack at all.
+
 
+
Temporal Flux is an editor.
+
 
+
You've tried my other programs and think they rock? You ain't seen nothing yet.
+
 
+
I could sit here all day and list all the features this program has, but I figure you would rather just get the bleeping thing. The boards get this first. It will be posted to Zophar's front page sometime Friday.
+
 
+
This program requires the .NET Framework v1.1 which is available from Windows Update and elsewhere on Microsoft's website.
+
 
+
http://evilpeer.net/crypt/tf102.zip (227k)
+
 
+
And Chickenlump has written up a manual that covers some of the basics.  
+
 
+
http://evilpeer.net/crypt/tfmanual.zip (615k)
+
 
+
I have to give some special thanks to Chickenlump and JLukas. Without them, Temporal Flux would only be about half as far along as it is now.
+
 
+
Finally, there are some ways you can help the further development of this editor. Layer 3 tiles are not displayed or editable in this version, mostly because I do not know how to render them on top of the other tiles. And a number of Location Event commands are not fully decoded, so if you can figure some of that out, it would be a big help.
+
 
+
What's to come? Overworld Event and (hopefully) Layer 3 editing are scheduled for the next version. The eventual goal is to be able to edit everything (though it will probably be some time before TF is capable of that ).
+
 
+
Bug reports and suggestions are always welcome. If you find that you like this program so much you would like to thank me in some manner, nothing says "thank you" quite like a [https://www.paypal.com/xclick/business=michaelspringer%40email.com&item_name=Temporal+Flux+Software+Donation&item_number=Temporal+Flux&no_shipping=1&tax=0&currency_code=USD Donation].

I've begun work on a preliminary plot, and Claado Shou is doing sprites. The Chrono Compendium can hopefully take full advantage of this editor and release a modification.

===Chrono Trigger Prerelease Updated=== --[[User:ZeaLitY|ZeaLitY]] 21:11, 23 Nov 2004 (CST)
+
 
+
The Prerelease section has been updated with much information from RyogaMasaki and CuteLucca, who contributed scans from promotional cards -- his site is at http://ryoga.heypoorplayer.org/ctpp/ . Especially of interest are the aforementioned cards and [[Extra_Playable_Characters_(CTP)]], as new evidence suggests that Gaspar might have been the eighth character, and once and for all disproves Schala as the possible character. Check it out.

===BIG News=== --[[User:ZeaLitY|ZeaLitY]] 11:21, 20 Nov 2004 (CST)
+
 
+
Evil Peer, one of the foremost ROM hackers of Chrono Trigger, has released a teaser for his upcoming patch, Temporal Flux, the result of 1500 manhours of work over the last year. It appears to be a continuation of the Chrono Series storyline, featuring FATE, dark versions of the protagonist, and...well, you'll just have to see the other huge surprise in there. That talk about the rumored two characters in the [[Extra_Playable_Characters_(CTP)|Prerelease]] may have been untrue, but in Temporal Flux, it may become a reality. EP says the full patch is coming Nov. 24, and will only work with Non-headered ROMs (if you downloaded your CT off the net, it is probably headered). It's unknown what the storyline exactly is, or whether he has all his facts straight, but EP is very professional. For now, pick it up here:
+
 
+
Non-Headered ROM:<br>
+
http://evilpeer.net/crypt/tftease.zip
+
 
+
Headered ROM:<br>
+
http://evilpeer.net/crypt/tftease.headered.zip
+
 
+
To view it, make a copy of your CT ROM. Extract the .ips file. If you don't have a utility to apply .ips patches, hit up http://fusoya.cg-games.net/ and download Lunar IPS. Things should be self explanatory; use the utility to apply the patch and then load up the copied ROM and enjoy.

+
===Gaspar Chronicle Epilogue & The Edge of Forever=== --[[User:ZeaLitY|ZeaLitY]] 21:49, 18 Nov 2004 (CST)
+
 
+
Two new additions to fanfiction were added today, the first being the epilogue to my Gaspar Chronicle; the second was the first part of a short story about one of the protagonists of Chrono Trigger, written by Hadriel. Both are accessible from [[Selected Fanfiction]]. Get ready for a supplement to the Prerelease section; much information, both textual and visual, is being added things to CuteLucca and Ryoga.
+
 
+
===I need help.=== --[[User:ZeaLitY|ZeaLitY]] 22:24, 14 Nov 2004 (CST)
+
 
+
Check the General Discussion board. The Compendium's eating up a crazy amount of my time, so I cannot continue working on it at this pace. I need help, or else I'll feel like retiring completely. This site's going to be the ultimate in analysis and even fanfiction, but first we must get all this useless info out of the way, like the Weapons encyclopedia. If you can help me do a few entries, please, PLEASE post on that General Discussion thread called 'Message from ZeaLitY.'
+
 
+
===Fan Projects Completed=== --[[User:ZeaLitY|ZeaLitY]] 22:34, 3 Nov 2004 (CST)
+
 
+
I believe the [[Fan Projects]] page is finally complete. I've scoured the internet for mention of fan projects, even contacting old sources. It turns out that aside from Chrono Trigger Resurrection, there are twelve other projects, all varying in scope and methods of revitalizing and remaking the Chrono series. Click the link and check them out; many of them are in need of good talent, and we'd love to see a new one get finished.

===Nobuo Uematsu Leaves Square-Enix=== --[[User:ZeaLitY|ZeaLitY]] 16:24, 30 Oct 2004 (CDT)
+
 
+
From http://www.rpgfan.com/news/2004/1959.html
+
 
+
''Final Fantasy composer [[Nobuo Uematsu]] has left Square Enix and is set to found his own company. Reflecting on his busy recent schedule, which included a Final Fantasy concert tour throughout Japan this year, activities related to his rock band The Black Mages as well as composer duties for last year's Hanjuku Eiyuu Tai 3D and the upcoming Final Fantasy XII, Uematsu mentioned, it might be best for him to become a freelance composer. However, he mentioned that there is still a possibility his relationship with his former employer will continue. Looking back Uematsu said he really liked his compositions for Final Fantasy VI, VII and VIII and will never forget Final Fantasy VIII's main theme Eyes on Me.''

+
===Zealous Entropy=== --[[User:ZeaLitY|ZeaLitY]] 21:24, 22 Oct 2004 (CDT)
+
  
A fantastic new Corridors of Time remix has been released on VGMix.com. It clocks in at 10:29, featuring excerpts from the citizens of Zeal and a beautiful soundscape founded on excellent guitarwork. Ashane does extremely well in imparting the airy and majestic feel of Zeal. October must be the months of knock-out Chrono Trigger arrangements (see "The Queen with the Silver Eyes (Dream Extension)"), as this is the second one yet. Regardless, stop reading and hit it up: [http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=2556 'Zealous Entropy'] by Ashane.
