NOTE: This plugin hasn't been updated for almost 4 years.
Script: Silvers Skill Gems (Materia) v1.04
Author: SilverDash
About
I originally intended it to be like Path of Exile's skill-system. However, in the end I noticed that it also had nearly all the features (mostly more) that a materia system needs. So now you have a materia-system that supports color-coding.
This script was catching dust since mid December 2015 (project cancelled) so I was like... Why not just share it then? Because of this the terms "Gems" and "Materia" may be used interchangeably but they are exactly the same.

Features
[*]Supports Yanfly's main menu manager
[*]Supports stat-comparison
[*]Supports Unique Materia (= max of 1 of these equipped per actor)
[*]Weapon & Armor sockets of course.
[*]Supports color-coding for both sockets and Materia.
[*]Materia gains ranks, xp and can optionally create new Materia upon reaching max-rank
[*]Supports the default RPG Maker MV default resolution. By default it's optimized for 1280x720.
Cons

Cons
- When I wrote this plugin, it was not intended for public use. so it's not easy to use. Sadly making demo-projects is still not doable with the current project size that RPG Maker MV offers us.
- Could use some more testing but if I don't just release it, it would probably just catch dust on the shelf forever. As far as I could tell it's stable.

Download package v1.04 (this download includes the images and all the plugins including the optional ones)
Installation instructions
Download the following plugins and put them in your plugin directory. Then add them to the Plugin Manager [F10] in this order:
Now add the Materia-images to your project folder (they are near the bottom of this post):
<your project>/img/skill_gems/EquipSocketsSkin.png
<your project>/img/skill_gems/Orbs.png
<your project>/img/skill_gems/Sockets.png
<your project>/img/skill_gems/Stars.png
Now you just have to create items with sockets and materia. The details&examples for those are detailed below.
Now make sure that the ID's of the entries you just added above match the entries shown below by changing the plugin-parameters [F10].
Use notetags to add sockets to items. Example (r = red, y = yellow, etc):
Now create a new armor-item in the database and make sure that it's ID matches the parameter "Unequip ID" in SilvSkillGem_Scene.js (or obviously just change the parameter to match this armor-id instead).
Now all you have to do is create the skillgems. The notetags are listed in the help of the SilvSkillGem plugin. Here are some examples:
Skill-gem example:
Command-gem example:
Support-gem example:
Enemy Skill gem example:
Optional instructions for adding compatibility with Yanfly's Main Menu Manager (highly recommended). Just fill in the fields as shown below:

Known bugs
- It is/was somehow possible to dupe Materia through equipping/unequipping Materia but I never managed to reproduce it. If you happen to encounter this, please let me know how to reproduce it with as many details as possible so I can fix this.
Todo-list & possible upcoming features/fixes:
- Polishing
- Currently only skill-gems can gain bonus experience (ex: from the Training Support Materia)... Other gems can not, but all gems can gain experience.
- Add compatibility for http://yanfly.moe/plugins/en/YEP_X_ActSeqPack1.js
- Add a plugin command to manually learn skills to Materia, including those that don't have the notetags for it. I forgot this in v1.04.
- Add parameters for the default-support-materia-addon.
- Add more default support materia.
Compatible with at least the following plugins:
- YEP_SkillCore.js
- YEP_CoreEngine.js
- YEP_EquipCore.js
- YEP_ItemCore.js (=required plugin!)
- YEP_BattleEngineCore.js
- YEP_MainMenuManager.js
- YEP_X_BattleSysATB.js
- YEP_X_VisualHpGauge.js
- YEP_VictoryAftermath.js
- YEP_SkillLearnSystem.js
- YEP_MessageCore.js
- MOG_BattlerMotion.js
- And of course with all of my plugins

Tonbi's MZ material factory
That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
