Doesn't work under MKXP-Z (Part 1) about pokemon-essentials

[jonisavo]

I'm fairly certain getUnicodeString relies on a 32-bit Win32API call, which fails because the latest mxkp-z is a 64-bit binary. However, that's not the root problem here. Methods like getUnicodeString and getKnownFolder will be unnecessary in the future, since we are planning on dropping support for vanilla RGSS completely. That means we can just use mkxp-z's System.data_directory for save files. I am currently working on this.

Firstly, specify which branch you're using. Secondly, it looks like you may be using a different version of mkxp-z to the one that actually comes with Essentials, so you shouldn't be reporting errors with it because it has nothing to do with Essentials.

I'm using the dev branch.

That's good to hear!

Yes, I'm using the latest version of MKXP-Z (2.0). I don't see how it's not relevant unless you plan to be
deliberately incompatible with the newest versions.

It's irrelevant because it's not what is included in this repo. You shouldn't be reporting issues with something that isn't in this repo. If you want to talk about development and the efforts to upgrade to a newer version of mkxp-z, go to the Discord.

If you are interested in helping with getting Essentials to run on mxkp-z, our Discord server is here: https://discord.gg/ZFaunpVv. @Maruno17, I think we should add an invite link to the README.

The mxkp-z PR (#96) fixes this and #88, so both issues can be closed.
