Request for an Alternative or Specific Character Select Plugin

[maoyurui]

Good Day to Anyone who might take time to read this. As the Post title implies, I need some assistance regarding a "Character Select" plugin for the project I'm making. But let me clarify first the steps I did before posting here and why:

-I'm not into programming. I can't make a Program to Save my Life in the worse case scenario. So yeah if programming is required to save the world and I'm tasked to do it... We're all DOOMED!
-I already searched for any type of Alternative Programs and solution within and outside the forums. Unfortunately Big Brother Google couldn't help me nor Uncle Youtube
-I've tried reaching out to Driftwood's Discord channel where I'm into a bunch of times to seek assistance... But unfortunately none of the people there online or not was able to assist me. To be exact nobody answers me. Anything.... I'm just like the wind I guess .
-This project started about 5 years ago. about more than a Year ago, My PC was lost due to unfortunate circumstances of a natural disaster. The project was already about 70-75% completion back then, but due to the unfortunate circumstance with Mother Nature, even my back-up was destroyed except for the storyboard I wrote. Which resulted to my predicament since back then, I was using a plugin made by Soulpour777 which I didn't know he stole from Moghunter.
-I tried switching to Mog's Character Select but there are issues on it that doesn't work on my project. Somehow in a way it's more limited. Maybe Soul improved it a bit who knows it's been a long time. But I did try to reach to Mog in Tweeter but, I guess his really busy, which I can understand, so I didn't get any reply. Or worse my Tweet might have been buried with other tweets he may be receiving

Anyway sorry about that intro, but I just wanted anyone reading this to know I did try my best finding a solution on my own before posting here since I know you guys are busy as well and maybe reduced any questions on any steps I might have made. My apologies

Ok so here is the Gist. Right now I'm using Moghunter's Character Select Plugin. It's the closest I want for the character selection but there are some issues:

-The Plugin will generate the selection automatically for you in a nice circle form based on the Max Actors you have on your Project's Database. As long as you follow the instructions on where to put the character assets it will be fine. It's all good, But in my Project... I have 120+Actors in line. Only 7 of them are the Main Actors. The system Automatically generates everything when I tried adding past the 10 default. I only need the 7 Main actors to be in the select Screen, Not the rest.

You guys might be asking now why so MANY Actors? The Nature of my Project is based on the groundwork made by RPG's like The Saga Series (Saga Frontier etch) where you choose a Character on start, play their Scenario, Finish it and go and unlock their endings and maybe a secret scenario or character. More on that later. But the gist of it the 120+ Characters spreads out to each 7's of the main character's story. Each one you can recruit one way or another, Suikoden Style. These characters can also show-up on the other Main character's storyline via quest or by finishing one of the Character's story etch. Hence that many Actors.

-The Select Character System itself I really wanted to model from "Brigandine":


In this game, On the special Edition, Once you have finished all the main characters, You will unlock a Secret Character that will give more light to the story and expand it's lore. Now since I have 120+ characters this is a big issue. This is something that can't be done with Mog's Plugin though, hiding a character selection to be able to be unlocked later. Hence one of my issue. I tried using events but it doesn't work with the plugin since I think it's prioritizing the plugin script. It keeps creating a selection for all the actors. I have to be honest here though, since I'm not a programmer and as I've mentioned above, I can't really do any programming to save myself or the world, I might have made the wrong events.

-The plugin doesn't have any other options for me to customize it except for actor pictures. So to make it more clear on what I'm talking about I'll present to you guys the current look on the Character Select using Mog's Script:

Here is what it looks like in Mog's Original


As you can see I was able to reduce the character to 3 only by reducing the Database's actors to 3. If I get past 10 then it will generate every actor on the Database and keeps asking for each of their "Assets" to be placed in the specific folder.

Now by default it will show you the Class and Stats of the Character you choose. But I want to customize it even further. What I want to happen to the display when you choose is this (Sorry this is a quick Photoshop so it doesn't look good):



As you guys can see, When Highlighting a Character to be selected, Instead of the stats, I want the image of the City/Location where the Main Character will start. Then there should be a minor lore of the area where the character's story will revolve around.

-I also want that depending on which character you finish first a new one will be specifically unlocked till you get all the remaining 4 to complete the whole story of the game. I've got something store here so I can't say more than that.

-Lastly, When you select a character, it will always spawn on the default location you setup for Actor_1. Each of the 7 characters has their own Geo location that they need to spawn, but when I tried doing events it doesn't work (Again I'm not a programmer so I don't know if I did it correctly. I only followed what's in youtube ). I wish to have them start in different locations so that the player can experience a different setting for each characters.

Well that's it for now. I do apologize for the long post . I don't know if it's possible to modify Mog's script or something similar with what I want can be made or already exists (I did try finding one but I might have missed something) to be an alternative.

I do hope to hear from anyone who can give me some assistance for a New Plugin, Maybe a modified one of Mog's if possible or an Alternative Plugin. I'm working alone on this project which is a passion project for me... I know it's a large undertaking since it is really broad in scope, but, I really want to finish this somehow with my vision, although I know it's not going to be 100% end up the way I wanted to be. Still, it's a dream I want to pursue not only for myself, but for those who I know that gave up on their own projects as well to give them back the inspiration they need... Sorry for being dramatic there

Anyway thank you very much for any reply!
