This mod was created by isa looking over the game's memory, trying to see what's going on. It drastically increases the performance of the PC port.

The mod comes in two installation styles: The Patch, and the Patcher.

The Patch is a .ips patch file which can be used to patch the game's .exe using a program like Lunar IPS (this is what I recommend).
The Patcher is an executable file created using Ips2Exe Lite which will patch the game directly for you. You do not need to download the Patch to use the Patcher, the patch is already built-in to it.


As for how this performance increase is done, I will quote isa's own words:

I've been poking at various addresses in Cheat Engine to try and tackle the framerate issues! I have noticed that changing 83 46 14 02 to 83 46 14 01 at both:
CHRONOCROSS.exe+7116F
CHRONOCROSS.exe+71B16
does improve framerate, especially during battles.

I don't know what this actually does, but if you would like to try it out, feel free!
I haven't noticed it breaking anything during my testing, but keep in mind that that's always a possibility.

All I have done is create an .ips patch for the game's .exe which comes with these fixes pre-applied and a patcher .exe if you don't want to apply the .ips patch yourself.

The patcher was created using Ips2Exe Lite, with isa's permission, as was this upload.

If you notice any issues, please feel free to tell me on nexusmods, or go straight to the Moogles & Mods community to tell isa directly!
