Hello there. I can't really think of anything to say, so I'll keep it simple.
I'm currently messing around with the save file script to get it how I like.

One of the biggest problems I'm facing right now, is that I don't know where the locations are controlled. I tried changing some stuff in Window_Savefile -
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Draw Play Time
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def draw_playtime(x, y, width, align)
header = DataManager.load_header(@file_index)
return unless header
draw_text(x, y, width, line_height, header[:playtime_s], 2)
I tried changing x and y to numbers...
draw_text(x, y, width, line_height, header[:playtime_s], 2)
to
draw_text(100, 90, width, line_height, header[:playtime_s], 2)
That didn't move it. It doesn't even seem like changing those does anything.

See I read the post the first time, and thought you meant you wanted the map location to be displayed. Then after I had written the code for that and came back I had re-read and discovered the issue. So I'm just gonna pretend you wanted the initial thought and post the code with absolutely no explanation behind how it works.

def draw_location
header = DataManager.load_header(@file_index)
draw_text(0, 0, contents.width - 4, line_height, header[:location], 2) unless header.nil?
end

Change the 2 to a 0. No, really, it's as simple as that:
draw_text(x, y, width, line_height, header[:playtime_s], 0)
See that number represents the alignment factor, 0 means the text will be aligned to the left, 1 = center, and 2 = right. So by changing it to a zero it'll go back to the left.
Also the X and Y settings do matter, but the alignment setting matters a lot more. Unless I'm mistaken text position is first set based on line height setting and alignment, then offset by the X and Y setting.
Edit: Damn D&P3, dat signature...
Thank you. :D
I think I'm making progress on another part of the script. I'm trying to display the "reserve" party members. I want to to show all the characters that have joined the party and not just the active ones.

There are a few different ways you can go about this, I personally would probably do it via aliasing make_save_header in data manager.
This works here (used D&P3's datamanager, thanks):

Insert that script and you'll have a new save header (:partynames) to access via the load file scene, its an array of all actor names in the party from the save files, in proper order. Index 0 = party leader. If you are using D&P3's script above, you'll need to overwrite his included datamanager code with what I have put there.
I suck at this stuff.
I tried to used it, but I just make crashes.
I added -
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Draw More Party Characters
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def draw_party_names(x, y)
header = $game_party.all_members_names
return unless header
header[:partynames].each_with_index do |data, i|
draw_character(data[0], data[1], x + i * 48, y)
end
end
To "Window_SaveFile"... and It makes crashes.
Also, does this add their names, or their sprites. I was looking to add all the character sprites. (As shown in my MSPaint mock up.)

The header itself I added is a simple array of all the actor names in the party. The array is in order, with index 0 being the party leader. No other actor data is stored in that simple header. I think you're accessing it incorrectly in your code snippet there, I don't think you need to touch $game_party.all_members_names right there. No, thats probably the glitch right there. Stahp it.
