Cheese is hard to use tho You need to know the actors number then the Item number RPGMaker vx ace is still a good editor tho Just put a sprite on the field then add the Items you want then you're good to goOlder save data should work as long as you dont't break anything
You can just patch the cheese without the translations tbh. I use the patched one here and it doesn't really have any problems
If you still unable to patch it try to extract this to your main mgq folder. Make sure to backup your "commonevents" file in data folder first though
