Also some games don't even run at all if the cheat menu is applied.

It's because the tool patches plugins.js poorly. Depending on the formatting it'll just throw commas all over the place which makes the game fail to load plugins altogether. Some games just fail to launch if this happens, some launch but with massive bugs.

You can fix this by restoring [GameDirectory]/www/js/plugins.js to the version you downloaded, then manually appending {"name":"CheatMenu","status":true,"description":"External cheat window, for easy item and variable modification.","parameters":{}} to it.

After doing this the error changed from unexpected token '.' to unexpected token '{'

Remember to insert a , before adding that line, notice how all lines end with a comma except the last one.

Code: 
// Generated by RPG Maker.
// Do not edit this file directly.
var $plugins =
[
{"name":"test1","status":false,"description":"","parameters":{}},
{"name":"test2","status":true,"description":"","parameters":{}},
{"name":"test3","status":true,"description":"","parameters":{}},
{"name":"CheatMenu","status":true,"description":"External cheat window, for easy item and variable modification.","parameters":{}}
];

While your advice is correct in general, I'm going to nitpick the use of the word "all", because the assumption that all lines that end with a closing bracket should also end with a comma is where the program causes issues. I mean, I haven't looked through the code but it feels safe to say based on observed behavior.
I'll give an example to show where it goes wrong.

Some games follow the format that you showed. However, some games format it differently; this is also a valid format for plugins.js that you'll see sometimes:
Code: 
{
  "name": "Community_Basic",
  "status": true,
  "description": "基本的なパラメーターを設定するプラグインです。",
  "parameters": {
    "cacheLimit": "20",
    "screenWidth": "1280",
    "screenHeight": "768",
    "changeWindowWidthTo": "",
    "changeWindowHeightTo": "",
    "renderingMode": "auto",
    "alwaysDash": "off"
  }
}
With the format you showed, the installer will correctly add a comma at the end of the line and move on. With this one, it would add commas to all closing brackets, like so:
Code: 
{
  "name": "Community_Basic",
  "status": true,
  "description": "基本的なパラメーターを設定するプラグインです。",
  "parameters": {
    "cacheLimit": "20",
    "screenWidth": "1280",
    "screenHeight": "768",
    "changeWindowWidthTo": "",
    "changeWindowHeightTo": "",
    "renderingMode": "auto",
    "alwaysDash": "off"
  },
},
My suggestion would be to only insert a comma at the final closing bracket, since it's relatively simple and avoids breaking things, plus it's not really your concern if the original dev formatted their own plugins.js incorrectly. Or just ignore me. I'm too lazy to download the code and submit a fix myself, so I can hardly fault you if you feel the same.

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Your correct.

But my statement holds when the plugin.js is unedited from the source, as for what your saying is when someone has been modifying the file, most likely while translating it.

plugins.js is an auto generated file from RPG Maker, and its even stated in the top not to modify it. :)

That tool is amazing. It is rly easy to use, It's user-friendly lol.
Right now I can't think of any suggestion to make bc it's been some time since I last played a rpgm game. Just maybe make an option to change the speed we're moving at, smt like that.
But I'll def come back when I do if I have suggestions, that is if the dev is still working/trying to improve (on) it.

So yeah, thank you for this amazing tool.

Technically there is a movespeed mod, but it doesn't really work well with a lot of games, especially if they already have a turbo mode built in. My New Life for example has a built in turbo that this mod actually makes slower lol, but it's worth it for the benefits it gives and you can make up for the lost time with teleporting.

Oh ok. I thought what if we could change it like a variable. In games they most of the time give you the choice between slow, normal fast, super fast.
I don't know how it all works but Ig the sprite should have some kinda
travel distance / time
or smt similar. I honestly don't kown what I'm talking abt lol, I don't code. So yeah it would be great if we could edit a number that would change the speed instead of switching between preset speeds. lol Idk if what I say makes sense, I hope it does.

I think I get what you're saying but yea it works differently for different methods. I'm not sure what the speed function is in RPG Maker but typically you either increase the speed of the player sprite itself, or you increase the speed of the whole process (as in the clock in the game actually runs faster.) I think the hack in this tool increases sprite speed but it doesn't always play well with some titles.

You can speed up the walking speed on the character page, and modify the games speed under commands

I appear to have ran into an issue, I installed this on Dungeon with Girl and had to fix the plugins and it worked fine, then I went to translate the System.json and all of that to make it easier for me, but I somehow broke the cheat, I have tried reverting the changes and everything, fresh installs and all that, but nothing has worked. So last resort is to ask for help

In detail, the cheat loads fine, I get in game press L and it seems okay... until I press something else in which it just shows a blank screen where there would be items, weapons, party stats and such.

Though I will note that opening the menu does show all weapons in the game (though useless for this particular game) but clicking to anything else likes armors, items, variables, etc. will break it, after this going back to weapons also shows the blank screen. Opening inventory, adding favorites, adding weapons and opening saves/loads also work. Closing and reopening the menu shows the weapons again, but same story.

(current plugins.js and system.json attached as well as image of what it looks like)

Hey Aziien,
First thanks a lot for the tool!
Then, a quick question. I sometimes use RPG Maker Events to check what the game wants me to do or what variables I should modify to correct a fuckup, but as it is now I didn't find a way to know what variable name corresponds to say "Variable[430]" in the game code. Is it possible to show, or toggle showing, the variable and switch numbers?
