Chrono Trigger: Chrono Trigger: Bugfix and Uncensoring Patch Super Nintendo

  • ~
  • Share
This patch is geared towards fixing bugs and patching up script inconsistencies or censorship. The aim is to preserve the original translation while generally improving the game as a whole.

-Completely decapitalized names in dialogue.
-No more indentation of normal dialogue in textboxes.
-MSU-1 compatibility!
-Fixes to gameplay bugs, such as Targeting AI.
-You can now enter names smaller than the maximum amount of characters without issue.
-Restoration of alcohol, prayer, entities, you name it!
-Magus is now known as The Fiendlord by NPCs in 1000AD and 600AD, and Mystics are now Fiends.
-Minor restoration of points Chrono Cross brings up that were present in the original, just not in the localization.

If you have been playing previous editions before the version number says "rebuilt" or are using a save from elsewhere such as an unpatched game, listen up: saves made after Mystic Mountain is first visited that did not use the CronoNick patch are not compatible, as the game will glitch out when viewing Falcon Hit's description or some of Ayla's lines. Saves between current patch versions are 100% compatible.

This was originally an addendum to Chrono Trigger's already existing dialogue related http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/261/. There are still many fixes from here contained within.

INSTRUCTIONS:
Apply this patch to a Non-Headered Chrono Trigger ROM. These were made with Floating IPS, though any other patcher that handles BPS patches (most android-based ones for example, or the latest SNES9x?s softpatching capability) should most definitely apply these without issue.

One patch has everything for your convenience, even MSU-1 (if you want to use this, please refer to the readme in the MSU-1 Files folder). Your patcher will complain to you if you try to use more than one, or if your ROM is not clean (in other words, nothing else can already be applied to it).

Bugfix Alone.bps: Just the main patch.
Bugfix+Name Liberties.bps: Also has the Name Liberties discussed in the ?list of changes? file, found in the Docs folder.
Bugfix+Name Liberties+Aerdan Item Names.bps: Name Liberties, plus item names from Aerdian's Chrono Trigger notes. Discussed in the same place as above.
Bugfix+SkyDark.bps: Also has Sky and Dark elements instead of Lightning and Shadow. Graphics and text are all changed to reflect this.
Bugfix+SkyDark and Name Liberties.bps: Has both Skydark and Name Liberties.
Bugfix+SkyDark and Name Liberties+Aerdian Item Names.bps: Has Skydark, Name Liberties, and Aerdian's Item Names.

The ?Canoe? folder contains a version made specifically for the SNES Classic to run natively. Note that this is based on an outdated version of SkyDark and Name Liberties. Please read the text file that?s also in the folder first.
The "Mystics" folder contains a patch made off of the latest Bugfix Alone that changes Fiends back to Mystics.

Compatibility:
Chrono Trigger Platinum is small enough that it doesn?t impact any of the patches listed here at all. You should be good to go, as no data clashes. Just your straight difficulty patch if you?d like it. Apply it after any of these BPS patches.

Anything that messes with events or text most likely won?t work due to text realignment. At best things will look wonky. It can?t really be avoided unfortunately.

If there is a bugfix patch out there, chances are that most likely it?s content is already in here. Plus many that aren?t even in patch form. The only one I can even remotely note is Reptite Reshuffle, and I didn?t really see that as a straight bugfix (plus, I?m pretty sure it isn?t compatible in it?s current format anymore). Ditto with the 5 letter name patch. I have not tested this at all, so I?m unsure about it?s compatibility with the larger lines.

Old saves made after Mystic Mountain is first visited, I?m sorry to say, aren?t compatible due to CronoNick restoration.
