RMMV Equip Menu; Removing MV Core Stats For My Own?

[nightcraw240]

Heyas!

I've been looking around, but have been having trouble finding an answer online.

I use a different set of stats (6) than MV uses (Strength, Defense, etc), and unfortunately, MV's main stats show up in the equip menu.

Is there any way to either hide these stats entirely or replace them with a variable that represents one of my own stats?

I'm really inexperienced when it comes to scripting, but any information (scripting, plugins, etc.) would be incredibly helpful and appreciated, thank you!

Edit: I should clarify, I still want the option for players to equip items, so I still need the menu at its core.

I'm using custom parameters and I've managed to display them on the status screen using StatusMenuCore, but I can't for the life of me do the same to the equip screen, which is crucial for the game I'm making as it's going to be dependent on equipment for stats. In the above picture I managed...

I've moved this thread to Plugin Requests. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.

Changing the menu will require a plugin.

Ah, my apologies; thank you for the kind-willed guidance.

why don't you just rename them?
rename attack as strength and so on, and set their values in the database to what you want them to have.
if the original values aren't used othervise that should be enough.

Seconding Andar. If the equivalent stats are essentially the same, you could feasibly just rename the stats in the database, unless they have significant differences from the default.

Thank you for the suggestions; I have tried that however.

My stats need to go into the negatives, which has a meaningful impact on the game; in classic MV, I can't take those stats below 1.

And then secondly, items in this game increase the six core stats, rarely, and a group of other skills, frequently; the skills (variables) are displayed though another menu option via a plugin (YepsActorVariables). Having such a disconnect in the equip menu feels clunky; a player might reasonably question why the six core stats are shown/important when the frequency of improving them is hardly transpiring compared to the other skills the player will be improving (shown in another window) much more frequently with items.

It should also be noted, I have my six main stats tied into variables that are displayed via YepsActorVariables (for any who don't know; it's basically an extra menu option to display variables), which makes them arbitrarily shown multiple times throughout the menu options. I could very well remove my six stats from the YepActorVariable's menu, but the stats tie directly into the skills, which makes it valuable to have them shown next to the skills for quick reference/smooth comprehension; if I remove the variables from the YepActorVariable's menu then the info would be spread around the menu selects, which, doesn't seem like a good setup for a player to engage with.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TL;DR :
1.) Need to have the six stats be negative at times; MV won't let me do it to the core stats.
2.) Items don't upgrade my six stats, they upgrade skills (variables), which are shown in another window next to my six core stats (variables), so, I have repeated/redundant info.

then you have two options only:

1) a custom plugin for replacing the status screens in the menu
in this case your info is not enough to write that plugin, because whoever does that needs to know the specific code for accessing the values you use.

2) use a plugin that replaces the current parameter data with your own formulae to remove the limitations you're currently face and make the renaming viable.
Yanfly has one such plugin, you should check that out. I don't know if it is one of the free ones or now needs to be paid for.

I managed to find what appears to be the answer, for any who may face similar issues :
