Well guys, its possible. The characters CAN follow you around just like in FF8.

How does this work?
Well, remember the man in Corel Prison that follows Cloud around? Its basically just an extension of that code. Instead of following Cloud, 1 character is programmed to follow Character 0 (the controlled character) and the other is programmed to follow character 1. I did have them both following character 0 at one point, but they kept clashing with each other. It will work with any character that is the leader.

I *Think* its possible to control whoever is in the top character slot. I'll have to look into that more. In the meantime, you may discuss this. :)

If you do that.. Would we have to edit every field file too in the flevel.lgp?

Miseru:
So that's what was taking you from Aeris patch:P. Well the little refresh can be nice from it, but I dunno if that will not make problems with scenes that use split/join. :P So you're planning that on just some fields, or it's global? And does it work on world map?*thinking about chocobo x3* xD

It would have to be done for every level. Playing as whoever is in the top slot has a few problems though, like in Mideel when you find Cloud, the game crashes unless you play as Tifa.

I have found a code that lets you switch characters after talking to them, for example with the Aeris patch, i gave her text on the highwind, and if you pick yes, you play as Aeris. Its quite fun actually lol.

EDIT: Sorry, almost ignored you :P

No, it wont work on the world map. You have to do it for EVERY level. Although its just a simple copy and paste, and in some cases you may have to do a little tweaking.

That's quite the clever idea! Though I personally never liked the way FFVIII did that. However...

THIS would be very cool!
