We will continue to enhance the quality of our translations.— New and Improved Features —
[Sprite Tool]
- Mask layer was implemented in the Sprite Tool.
- In the sprite timeline, layers in the line above the mask layer is the target of the mask function.
- If “Invert Alpha Value” is turned on in the properties of the mask layer, the shape of the assigned image will be cropped.
- Images of primitive shapes such as a square or circle have been added to the Resources>Images>reserved>Primitive folder. Please use these images for masks.
- Masked animation can be applied to layout elements by assigning a sprite set with a mask to layout parts where a sprite set can also be specified. The following locations can be set:
- “Sprite Set referring to “Motion”” in the rendering containers, menu containers, and submenu containers
- Selection cursor sprite set of menu containers
- Sprite set of sprite panel
- Easing selection function has been improved.
A dialog box has been added to select the type of easing from an icon showing the easing curve. We are also adding more types of easing.
You can try this feature in the frame properties, where you can select the “change method” (e.g., movement, rotation, etc.). It is also added to the context menu.- Sprite list operations have been improved.
- Improved paste position when copying and pasting tree entries.
- Support for reordering of motions by multiple selections.
- Implemented a hotkey (Ctrl+D) for duplicating entries.
- Preview playback/pause can now be performed with the space key.
- Layers can now be swapped with the +/- keys.
With the layer name selected by clicking on it, press + to replace it with the layer in the row below. – would replace the layer in the row above.[Database]
- The number of battle commands can now be added/removed at Casts > Battles tab > Battle Command Menu.
- A battle command can be added by pressing the Add button.
- When “Open Skill List” or “Open Item List” is selected for “Function to be Assigned,” the layout to be used can be selected.
For example, skills could be divided into “skill” and “spell”, and each could have its own battle command. Specify management tags for each skill and create a layout narrowed down by each tag in the “Management Tags for Items to be Displayed” on the “Battle Skill Selection” screen.- Added “Damage Reduction when “Guard”” to the Skills > Basic tab > Basic Settings.
When turned on, this skill is subject to damage reduction when “Guard” is selected in the Battle Command.- Under Items > Change Elements tab > Basic Settings, “Damage Formula (HP)” and “Attack Attribute” are now automatically added/removed from the “Item Abilities” section, depending on whether the “Weapon” option is turned on or off.
However, if both effects have been specified, turning off “Weapon” will not remove the ability.- In Items > Change Elements tab > Basic Settings, “Parts” is now automatically added/removed from the “Item Abilities” section depending on whether the “Armor” option is turned on or off.
However, if the “Parts” setting has been specified, turning off “Armor” will not remove the ability.[Layout Tool]
- “Management Tags for Items to be Displayed” can now be used to narrow down the list of entries in the following screens. The management tag should be specified in the Database.
“Skill Activator Selection”, “Battle Skill Selection”, “Battle Item Selection”- In the properties of layout parts, a button to start editing sprites immediately has been added at the point where sprites can be selected.
Clicking the pen icon activates the Sprite Tool.- The layout property “Variable to Assign the Selection Result” has been improved to allow the selection of variables to be selected from a dialog.
- Added “Change the Controller Vibration Setting” as an action in the submenu container.
A controller vibration on/off setting has also been added to the system layout on the Config screen.- Added “EXP at Current Level” to layout special format \partystatus19.
[Test Play]

It can be opened from the Edit menu of the Cast Parameter Check View.- Added ability to change cast statuses and consumption values by entering numerical values into cells in the Cast Parameter Check View.
- The log in the Debug Window now displays the expanded result of each variable in the formula in battle.
[Map Editor]
- The ability to open the Event Editor with a hotkey has been implemented.
The hotkey default is “G”. After selecting the terrain where you want to place the event, press the hotkey and a custom event will be placed and the Event Editor will open.[Events]
- Improved judging of lifts (on top of events).
- “Display Damage Numbers on Screen” function has been added to the “Change Cast Status” panel.
- The “Make Battle Cast as Operation Target” panel and the “Change Cast Status” panel can be used to change the status of enemy casts.
