Ver. 2.3.0 3/12/2026†
New and Improved Features†
Enemy Party†
Database†
- Added the “Enemy Party” menu.
You can pre-create combinations and placements of enemies that will appear.
You can also create unique battle events for each enemy party.
Created enemy parties can be added to the map encounter settings or made to appear from events using the “Battle with Enemy Party” panel.
Map Editor†
- When specifying appearing monsters in Map Settings > Enemy Distribution tab, you can now specify an enemy group.
Events†
- Added the “Execute Battle” panel. This panel is used to configure event battles with enemy parties.
Camera Tool†
- When configuring battle camera settings, you can now specify the monsters or enemy groups that appear in the preview.
The settings dialog can be opened from the battle layout switch button.
Conversation & Message Preview†
Events†
- Added a feature to the Conversation, Message, and Ticker panels that allows you to preview how they will appear on the actual screen.
Pressing the Preview button opens the Message Editor.
By specifying layout data, you can check how the entered text will appear in the game.
Store-Related Feature Additions†
Events†
- Added the following features to the “Display Store and Check Results” panel.
- Price Adjustment Function
- Specify a percentage (%) rate of change from the price set in the Database
- Specify the price using a variable
- Specify the percentage (%) rate of price change using a variable
- Inventory Management Function
When set to “Direct Value,” a local variable is automatically generated for the event at runtime.
If a negative value is entered into the variable, stock becomes infinite.
Layout Tool†
- Added the special format \shopitemstock to display the stock quantity of items in the store.
Cast / Item / Skill Description†
You can now set multiple descriptions for each database entry and display them from the layout. Text decorations and variable display are also supported. This makes it possible to change flavor text based on game progression or gradually unlock additional flavor text as the game advances.
Database†
- A new “Description” field has been added to the “Other” tab for Casts, Items, and Skills.
- Up to five descriptions can be entered.
The description field that previously appeared below the name of each entry has been removed. Existing descriptions have been automatically converted to Description 0 in the new system.
- You can use Text Commands to add formatting such as bold and italics, or to display variables.
Layout Tool†
- A new special format command \(xxxx)desc[] has been added to display the database description fields.
As a result, the previous command \(xxxx)des has been removed from the special format list. However, if you are already using \(xxxx)des, no changes are required.
- For example, the previous \itemdes works the same as \itemdesc[0].
You can also pass variables as arguments in the special format:
- The text panel has a limitation that only one decorated special format can be displayed at a time.
Therefore, if you wish to display multiple description texts, such as \itemdesc[0] and \itemdesc[1], please use separate text panels.
Skill Critical†
Database†
- A Critical category has been added to skill abilities, including the following new settings:
- Skill Critical Rate
- Additional Damage Formula
- Critical Effect
- (!) Skills without a “Skill Critical Rate” set will never trigger critical hits.
- (!) If a skill’s behavior is implemented using Common Events, you must obtain critical hit information within the event (for example using the “Obtain Battle Information” panel) and handle damage increases or critical hit effects manually inside the event.
- (!) Currently, critical hits can be triggered either within the common event called by the skill or using the battle event trigger “At the End of Action”.
- (!) Please note that when a critical hit occurs, the “Critical Damage Rate” defined in Game Definition > Rules and Rendering > Status Related is multiplied at the end of damage calculation.
- Two new customizable skill messages have been added to the Basic tab: When Skill Is Activated and When Critical Hit Occurs.
If no text is set for these options, the text defined in Game Definition > Common Terms will be displayed as battle messages.
- The “Critical Hit Rate (%)” ability in State definition now supports tag specification, allowing you to increase or decrease the critical rate of specific skills.
- A new keyword “Critical Hit Check” has been added for use in formulas.
This value will be:
- 1 when a critical hit occurs
- 0 otherwise
Game Definition†
- A new option “Critical Damage Rate Target Tag” has been added under Rules and Rendering.
Critical Damage Rate is a multiplier applied to damage at the end of the damage calculation.
This setting allows you to specify which tags the multiplier should apply to.
By default, the #Skill tag is specified, affecting the critical damage of all skills.
If you wish to apply this value only to physical attack skills, create a new tag in the Database and specify that tag in this field.
Feature Additions to Variable List†
Variable List†
- Added and improved the following features.
- When double-clicking a row in the variable list to open the Event Editor, the panel/row that operates the variable is now focused.
- Added a context menu. If an event that operates a variable exists on a map, it can now be focused on the map, and the event name can be copied.
Feature Additions to Cast Parameter Check View†
Test Play†
- Added and improved the following features in the Cast Parameter Check View:
- Added status display for reserve members
- Added the ability to jump by cast unit or group unit
- Horizontal scrolling with mouse wheel button drag
- Save Option menu settings
- Disable key input on the Test Play window while active
Events†
- Added logical OR to the Event Sheet's condition panel.
You can now set conditions to execute the Event Sheet when either A or B occurs.
- Added negative-form options to the string condition panel in the Event Sheet.
The following options have been added: “Is Not Equal To”, “Does Not Start With”, “Does Not End With”, and “Does Not Contain”.
- Added the ability to specify variables for the random number range when “Random” is selected in the “Advanced Variable Box Operation” panel.
- Added the "Number of Steps" option to the "Advanced Variable Box Operation" panel.
The application of steps to conditions for state release will be implemented in a future update.
- Added the ability to obtain the “Management Tag” of equipped items in the “Advanced String Variable Operation” panel.
- When retrieving key input in the “Check Key Input” panel or the “Advanced Variable Box Operation” panel, you can now choose whether to use the key assigned to “MENU” or “WALK”.
- Added an option to ignore differences of up to n decimal places in the “Check Variable Box” panel.
- When using “Display Item Selection Screen”, you can now skip selecting the target of item usage.
- This update enables the functionality implemented in the Layout Tool in Ver. 2.2 to also work when accessed through the Event Panel.
In the Submenu Container of the Item Selection Screen, set Action to "Display Item Target Selection" and Layout to be Opened to "None" to skip the target selection step.
However, with this method, the item will be used without confirming whether the player actually wants to use it.
Therefore, it is recommended to create a layout in the Item Target Selection Screen that allows the player to confirm whether to use the item or not.
- Added a “Restore Default” function to the “Change Layout to be Used” panel.
- Added the ability to define label names as strings in the “Label Definition” and “Label Jump” panels.
In addition, when using a fixed-value label jump, the destination is now displayed in the Event Editor.
- Added a feature to the “Check Surrounding Collision Detection (Raycast)” panel that allows you to retrieve the distance to the hit point.
- Added the ability to specify the destination using relative coordinates in the “Make Player/Event Walk to Specified Coordinates” panel.
- Added apostrophes and double quotation marks (opening and closing quotes) to the line-end prohibition rules for messages.
- Reorganized the handling of BGM and BGS (environmental sounds) fade behavior.
- When starting or stopping BGM/BGS from an event (0 seconds = immediate reflection), any previously running fade will be cleared (previously, fades were prioritized).
- When starting or stopping map BGM/BGS, any previously running fade will be cleared (previously, fades were prioritized).
- However, if map BGM/BGS is set to “Maintain”, the fade will continue (unchanged from previous behavior).
- In all three of the above cases, “Play Fanfare” will be interrupted (unchanged from previous behavior).
- Added the ability to specify the nth reserve member in the “Add/Remove Party Member” panel.
- Added party-wide/reserve-wide specification to the “Make/Cure Battle Cast State Change” panel.
- Added party-wide/reserve-wide specification to “Recover/Reduce Battle Cast’s Consumption Status”.
Layout Tool†
- Improved the selection UI in the “Actions” option of the submenu container so that the actions available for the current screen are clearly identifiable.
- Added the ability to change the font used for display in the properties of Spin Panel and Slider Panel.
- Fixed an issue where importing a lyrbr file while the logical resolution differs from the file’s assumed resolution now opens a confirmation dialog asking whether to convert it.
A lyrbr file is a layout data file exported from Bakin.
Gameplay†
- Improved Party Train processing so that party members no longer stop midair when falling and do not easily regroup midway on stairs.
- Implemented a push-out process for Non-Traversable Terrain.
You can specify Non-Traversable Terrain in Resources > Terrain Properties.
This process prevents the player from being pushed into Non-Traversable Terrain by events.
However, if the player is embedded in Non-Traversable Terrain by one grid or more, no corrective action will be taken.
Database†
- Casts > Equipment and Abilities tab > Added an “Edit Parts Types” button to “Initial Equipment,” which opens a dialog for editing equipment type definitions.
Settings that are only used under specific conditions have been consolidated into this dialog.
- Casts > Battles tab > “Battle Command Menu” > Added “Same Effect as Skill (Consumption)” to “Function to be Assigned.”
When a command with this function is used in-game, the associated skill is activated and the elements set for that skill (such as MP) are consumed.
- When selecting a skill in the Skill List, the tab containing configured abilities or “Effect When Used” is now automatically selected.
If both ally and enemy effects are configured, the Effect on Allies tab will open.
- Added a Show/Hide option for the change value of the Consumption Status in the skill’s “Damage to Consumption Status” ability.
After adding the ability, specify Show/Hide in the detailed settings section.
- Added a note to the item Motion settings field indicating that it is used during weapon attacks.
Map Editor†
- Added new functionality to “export terrain as model.”
This feature is available from the right-click menu (context menu) in the Map Editor.
- After exporting a model, it is now automatically registered as a stamp and can be placed on a map immediately.
- Implemented the “Render the Same as Terrain” option.
When enabled, the exported model will use the same shader (map_terrain) as the terrain.
If you are exporting terrain as a model for use, please enable this option. (Default: On)
- Applied the Random Tile feature to the Fill Tool.
- This feature can be executed with "Ctrl + Alt + Fill."
- When filling, the ground will be painted using terrain assets that share the same tag as the selected “Terrain,” chosen at random.
- Terrain tags can be set in Resources > Terrains.
- This Random Tile feature can also be used with the Pen Tool.
- Added a shortcut key to place stamps with their origin aligned to the ground.
To use this feature, hold Shift + Q while placing a stamp.
When placing the stamp, it will be positioned so that the bottom of its collision aligns with the ground. (After placement, pressing the Q key will align the stamp’s origin to the ground.)
This feature was added to accommodate cases where users want to place stamps with their origin aligned to the ground.
- Added new features and improved behavior for the Placed List.
- Added “Type” to the filter criteria. As a result, the Placed List tool area (where filter buttons and similar options are located) has been expanded to two rows.
- Improved the filtering behavior for Locked and Hidden entries.
- Improved the processing speed of the Batch Rename feature. Also improved the speed when renaming multiple selected elements from the Properties panel.
- It is now possible to change the size of symbols such as events in the Map Editor. This can be configured from the following menus:
- Map Editor Top Menu > Functions > Configuration > Tools
- Map Settings Palette > Editor Settings tab
- Updated the layout of the Basic tab in the Map Settings Palette.
The Terrain Texture Settings section is now collapsible.
Additionally, the Terrain Texture Settings section is now collapsible in the dialog that appears when adding a new map from the Map List.
- Improved the responsiveness of selection and other operations within the Map Editor.
In particular, performance has been improved when selecting grouped objects.
Game Definition†
- In System Resources > Default Font Settings, you can now specify the font used to display “Miss” during battle.
- In System Resources > Battles, added a feature that allows the “Miss” display in battle to be shown using a specified image.
If no image is specified, “Miss” will be displayed using the designated font.
Test Play†
- When starting Test Play while a debug dialog or similar window is open, focus will now remain on the main Test Play window.
- In Battle Test, when defeated by an enemy, the game will now proceed to the next battle without requiring the Confirm button to be pressed.
- In the feature that launches Test Play while performing a quick load of Map Editor save data, you can now attach notes to the save data you wish to load.
Right-click the save data name to open the memo entry field.
This feature is intended to improve Test Play workflow efficiency by allowing you to leave brief notes about save data contents.
Resources†
- You can now select multiple 3D Stamps in the list and change their materials in batch.
The same operations available in the “Models” menu can now also be performed in the “3D Stamps” menu.
- Added “Emitter Control” to the particle properties.
This feature affects data where the particle emission position (the “Inherit Position” property) has been set in Effekseer.
- Improved the texture search process when importing Effekseer effect (.efk) files.
- Even if the texture path specified within an .efk file is an absolute path, textures will now be copied correctly as long as they are located in the same directory level or a subfolder of the .efk file.
- Adjusted the Material settings section so that when using the mouse wheel, the shader description field no longer processes the wheel event.
Camera Tool†
- Improved the selection method when editing cells across multiple frames.
You can now select multiple frames and change the Number of Frames (the time it takes to transition from that frame to the next frame) for them all at once.
Sprite Tool†
- Improved the speed of value changes when using the mouse wheel in numeric input fields.
Game Engine†
- Implemented measures to address memory leaks in the runtime engine.
- Added and improved functionality to ensure decals are rendered regardless of camera position.
However, please note that larger decal volumes will result in higher shader load.
Plugins†
- Following the steps below will allow you to reload a map.
mapScene.mapDrawer.setRomImpl(mapScene.mapDrawer.mapRom, true, false, true);
mapScene.mapDrawer.recreateCollisions();
Sample Project†
- Added Skill Sample Project to the Game Gallery.
It contains sample skills created using common events, battle events, and database functionality.
- Adjusted lighting and other elements for the Grim Reaper stage in the “REINES DU SABBAT” project.

Sample Game "REINES DU SABBAT Queen of Sacrifice."(rev.72847)†
- Translation revisions for text, organization of project data, modifications to the Input Bindings screen, and event adjustments were performed.
The following issues have been resolved as of ver2.2.1.
(!)Caution
Since Ver. 2.2, there have been rare reports of the game crashing when moving between maps. We are investigating the cause and considering countermeasures.
As a temporary fix, please try setting the CCD Radius Coefficient to “0” under Game Definition > Move and Operate > Movement.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Ver. 2.2.0.1†
Bug Fixes†
Events†
- Due to the fix listed below that was implemented in version 2.2.0, the behavior during execution of the event sheet “On Disappear” had changed. Considering the impact on existing projects, we have reverted this fix.
- Fixed an issue where an event’s collision would remain for a short time after the event itself disappeared, when disappearing due to “Elapsed Time” as set in Database > Casts > Others tab > Events Disappearing Conditions.
Resources†
- Fixed an issue where the default value of Textures/Images > Import File Common Settings > Direction Order, which was newly added in Ver. 2.2, was incorrect. As a result, when image files were reimported using Update Information without changing the setting, the lower half of the image would be imported with the top and bottom flipped.
If you have imported images after changing the above property since Ver. 2.2, the settings for this entry will be reset once, so please reconfigure them.
(!) Import File Common Settings are applied when reimporting the original image using the Update Information button.
Layout Tool†
- (English version only) Fixed an issue where some layout properties could not be edited when using the tool in English.
Ver. 2.2.0†
New and Improved Features†
Reserve Member†
Game Definition†
- Added “EXP Calculation Formula (Reserve)” under Rules & Rendering > Status.
The default value is exp*0, meaning reserve members do not gain EXP.
Setting it to exp*100 allows reserve members to gain the same EXP as active members.
- Added the “Swap with Reserve on Party Wipe” feature under Rules & Rendering > Battle.
When enabled, if the active party is wiped out but there are surviving reserve members, they will automatically swap in, allowing the battle to continue without a Game Over.
- Added the “Maintain Formation After Battle” feature under Rules & Rendering > Battle Effects Related.
When enabled, any party formation changes made during battle will persist after returning to the map screen.
This also disables the “Disable Rearrange” setting in Database > Casts.
- Added a “State Removal Conditions Progress” switch under Rules & Rendering > Reserve Related.
This allows you to configure whether state-removal conditions progress for reserve members.
Events†
- Added a feature allowing reserve members to be designated as targets for panel effects in the panel below.

With this option, skills such as full-party HP recovery can now also include reserve members as targets.
Changes Related to New Reserve Member Features†
- Marked the “Recover/Reduce HP or MP” panel as deprecated.
The panel will continue to function, so you may keep using it if you already do.
For future use, please switch to the “Change Cast Status” panel.
- Adjusted map behavior so that reserve members no longer receive slip damage, matching battle behavior.
Party Menu Related†
Game Definition†
- Added “Show ‘Escape’ Command” under Rules & Rendering > Battles.
This allows you to remove the “Escape” command from the battle command list.
- Added “Trigger Cancel Event with Party Leader” under Rules & Rendering > Battle Effects.
When the party leader (the first active member) performs a cancel action during their turn, the specified event will run if configured.
Set the event trigger to “Every Turn.”
Events†
- Enabled executing the “Escape” action using the “Specify Battle Cast Action” panel.
- Added the “Show Party Switch Screen During Battle” panel to the Battle category.
This is intended for use with Free Layout for Event screens where you design a custom party menu layout and call it during a battle event.
Please refer to the Party Menu for Creation Tips.
Possible menu functions include the following:
- An option that calls a common event which executes the “Escape” action via the “Specify Battle Cast Action” panel (remove “Escape ” from the battle commands.)
- An option that switches party members using the “Show Party Switch Screen During Battle” panel.
- An option that opens a status screen.
Solo-Member Party†
Layout Tool†
- Skills, items, and status actions can now be executed without requiring the user to select the activator beforehand.
This makes the UI more natural in games designed around a “solo adventure” experience.
- If no destination layout is specified, the action is now executed immediately.
- In the target-selection layout, behavior is now determined by the “Action” set in the submenu container:
Layout Tool†
- Added the \savevar special format, which allows displaying variable values stored in save data.
This can be used, for example, to store progress text in a variable and display it on the save file selection screen.
- Added the following new special formats:
- Display equipment slot names
- Display money at the time of saving
- Display the Class/Subclass levels of party members in save data
- Formats related to Store selling prices
- Added a new setting to the layout properties of the “Free Layout for Event” screen
that prevents the layout’s key handler from responding while a message is being displayed.
You can choose whether message processing or layout input takes priority.
- Enabled sorting functionality in the layout properties of the “Store – Sell” screen.
- Added “Disable Camera Operation” to the layout properties of the “Menu” screen and “Free Layout for Event” screen.
When enabled in the Menu screen, it prevents in-game camera movement from changing while assigning keys for camera operations in the Input Bindings screen.
- Added “Variable to Assign a Selection Result” and “Variable to Assign a Selection” to the layout properties of battle-related screens.
- Added new system tags for “Skills Available in Battle” to the “Filter by Tag” layout property.

- Moved the “Change Cast’s Equipment” and “Change Cast’s Class” panels to the “Status” category.
- Improved performance of the Event Editor in large projects.
Database†
- Added a “Correction Target” column to Casts > Equipment and Abilities > Initial Equipment.
- Added the “Multi-Weapon Modifier: mwm” keyword to formula expressions.
With this, you can specify which values are multiplied by the “Multi-Weapon Modifier” set in equipment.
When “Use a Formula” is selected as the “Correction Target,” the value of “Multi-Weapon Modifier” is assigned to the formula keyword mwm.
Resources†
- Added a button to the Delete Asset dialog to toggle all selections at once.
- Improved processing speed when changing the selection of many resources at once in the Delete Asset dialog.
- Blendshape playback now also affects subgraphics.
- Added Import File Common Settings to the Textures/Images properties.
This feature allows you to change settings such as how imported slice animation images are sliced, and the direction order of character images, even after the import.
(!)note Please note that settings made in this property only work when the Update Information button is pressed.
Game Definitions†
- Added an option to select “None” in System Resources > Battle Command Related > Numbers for Damages.
- In Move & Operate > Assign Input Device, changing key assignments now also resets the corresponding in-game assignment data.

A “Number of Frames” field has been added to the property section for multi-frame editing.
- Enabled copy & paste while multiple frames are selected.
- When pasting camera data into a battle camera, it now behaves equivalently to “Overwrite This Entry.”
Sprite Tool†
- Enabled batch editing of numeric properties when selecting multiple frames within the same layer.
When multiple frames are selected, adjust the “Number of Frames” value in the property section on the right.
Tool UI†
- Added a zoom function to previews for specifying positions and areas on the map, such as in the Camera Tracking Range Settings dialog.
Other†
- Added Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese versions of the readme file generated in the project folder when publishing a work.
Sample Game†

- Fixed an issue where special formats for displaying the skills a cast learns no longer worked on the Picture Book screen since Ver.2.1.
- Fixed an issue where containers set to “Hide when Menu is Opened” could still appear due to the Display Condition Switch.
- Fixed an issue in the Party Switch screen where cancel information was written to variables before the cancel action was actually completed.
- Fixed an issue where the length of sliders displaying consumable statuses could differ between maps and battles.
- Fixed an issue where tag-based filtering in the “Select Cast” screen (e.g., when using a skill) was not correctly applied to reference values in slider panels within submenu containers.
- Fixed an issue where displaying a menu container in-game could cause an exception if all submenu containers had “Disable Auto Assignment Container Management Number” enabled and the cursor target was specified.
- Fixed an issue where using an image with the “Maintain Aspect Ratio of Frame” property enabled in Resources > Images as a slider background could cause rendering errors.
- Fixed an issue where status icons for the selected cast could not be displayed when opening the status screen during battle.
- Fixed the following issues related to the “Save File Selection” screen:
- Performance slowdown when moving the cursor
- Some parts not updating correctly when switching pages
- Sliders not displaying properly in certain cases
- Fixed an issue where \dictionaryskillname-related special formats were not shown in the Special Formats Insert Support dialog.
- Fixed an issue where checking “Disable Auto Assignment Container Management Number” in a submenu container caused incorrect display only in the preview.
- Fixed an issue where panel content could be displayed at the wrong size when resizing a panel by dragging immediately after switching the displayed layout.
- Fixed an issue where the selection frame remained in the preview even after Ctrl+left-click cleared the selection in the layout parts list.
- Fixed an issue where the selection cursor could disappear on the Replace Members screen.
- Fixed an issue where the selected layout information in the Layout to be Assigned field was not properly saved when switching screens in the Screen List.
- Fixed an issue where input from a gamepad was ignored after pressing the Appearance Playback button in Preview.
This change prevents unintended behavior that could lead to tool crashes.
Events†
- Fixed an issue where performing a forced save via a common event could cause the save process to run again the next time the game was loaded.
- Fixed an issue where motions would not transition to the “wait” motion when using the “Change Movement Speed” panel to designate motions other than “walk” or “run” as the walking motion.
- Fixed an issue where portrait graphic appearance animations during conversations were played twice when an event panel without a clock icon was placed between two “Display Conversation” panels.
- Fixed an issue where displaying a layout immediately after changing maps could sometimes cause an exception due to insufficient mutual exclusion control in sound processing.
- Fixed an issue where the screen could remain bright if a map transfer occurred while the screen was being flashed using an event.
- Fixed an issue where an event’s collision would remain for a short time after the event itself disappeared, when disappearing due to “Elapsed Time” as set in Database > Casts > Others tab > Events Disappearing Conditions.
- Fixed an issue where changes to the loading screen made in the "Change Layout to be Used" panel were not applied unless at least one second had passed.
- Fixed an issue in the “Change Cast Status” panel where percentage-based consumption values were not calculated using the maximum status value as the base.
- Changed the behavior of "Attack Range" in the "Obtain Item Parameter" panel.
The original "Attack Range" parameter, which returned a value multiplied by 100, has been renamed to "Attack Range x100" and retains its original behavior.
The new "Attack Range" parameter now returns the unscaled value.
Existing projects are automatically converted, so no changes are required.
- Fixed an issue where selecting “Do Nothing” in the “Specify Battle Cast Action” panel and enabling “Skip the Message” still caused a waiting period.
- Fixed an issue where using “Make Monster Appear” to place a new monster “B” into the slot of a previously defeated monster “A” caused the reward set for “A” to not be included in post-battle reward calculation.
- Fixed an issue where changes to rendering settings in battle events did not correctly update the environment map.
- Fixed an issue where, depending on the language environment, collision sizes defined in event templates were sometimes not applied correctly.
- Fixed an issue where copying an event that plays the “Default” camera of a map into another map would still reference the source map’s “Default” camera.
Database†
- Fixed an issue where invalid initial consumption values were set for enemy casts whose maximum consumption stats were increased by “Characteristic” abilities.
- Fixed an issue where skills that reduce allies’ consumption values (such as HP) did not correctly subtract those values on maps.
(By entering a negative value for recovery abilities, it is possible to deal damage to allies. The processing differed between battle and map scenes, and this has been corrected to match the in-battle behavior.)
- Fixed an issue where an exception could occur during an immediate test play after overwriting attribute definitions in the destination project when copying between projects.
- Fixed an issue where, in some list-type display fields (such as Casts > Skills to be Learned), the results of reordering entries were not saved.
Game Definition†
- Fixed an issue where the assignment fields for MENU: ACTION1–ACTION3 were missing in Move & Operate > Assign Input Device.
Resources†
- Fixed an issue where an exception error occurred when opening the Asset Picker with multiple materials selected that included a material with an empty texture.
- Fixed an issue where, when importing an exrbr file as a 3D/2D stamp, folders contained in the exrbr were sometimes not created in the list.
- Fixed an issue where, in Sounds, adding a sound via the Asset Picker using the Add button in the sound list caused the SE (sound effect) classification for the added resource to not function correctly.
- Fixed an issue where, when adding sound resources via drag and drop, the loop flag contained in the resource was not set correctly.
- Fixed an issue where the subgraphic list remained displayed even after all subgraphics assigned to a stamp were deleted.
- Fixed an issue where attempting to add motion, blend shape, or physics settings from a model file in the local environment resulted in only the model being created.
Map Editor†
- Fixed an issue where the relative positions of grouped objects became misaligned when moving them while the Snap to Grid button was ON.
- Fixed an issue where the Snap Tool did not function correctly.
- Fixed an issue where an exception occurred when attempting to change the properties of entries locked in the Placed List.
- Fixed an issue where repeatedly clicking while placing objects could cause the placed objects to not be registered in the Placed List.

- Fixed an issue where lock/visibility settings for groups in the Placed List were not carried over when copying a map.
- Fixed an issue where pasting a map could cause an exception if resources with specific names were included.
- Implemented countermeasures for an issue where the Quick Toolbar (Dark Mode) display became corrupted when using the dark theme.
Sprite Tool†
- Fixed an issue where images were not copied when sprites were copied between projects.
- Fixed an issue where an exception occurred when copying the Number of Frames row.
Test Play†
- Fixed an issue where, in Debug Window > Variable Monitor tab, the names of array variables were displayed as the top-level (root) folder name.
- Fixed an issue where, after clearing variable folders or clearing elements of array variables via events, the entries of the cleared variables were not removed from the Variable Monitor in the Debug Window.
- Fixed an issue where, during battle tests, invalid values could be set for the initial consumption values of party casts whose maximum consumption status were increased by the abilities of multiple Characteristics.
- Fixed an issue where resetting test play using Ctrl+C during battle would still restore the party data from before the reset upon entering battle again.
- Fixed an issue where consumption values of cast events were not displayed correctly when MapCast (Full) was selected in the Cast Parameter Check View.
Tool UI†
- Fixed an issue where, in tree-view style lists such as the Placed List, reordered entries could become misaligned after changing their order.
Ver. 2.1.0.3†
Bug Fixes†
Layout Tool†
- Fixed an issue where the DLC “RPG Developer Bakin Layout Data Classy” could not be imported correctly since Ver.2.1.
Ver. 2.1.0.2†
Bug Fixes†
Gameplay Issues†
- Fixed an issue where, if a map specified itself as the battle background, the rendering settings could change after battling on a different map and then returning to that map.
Events†
- Fixed an issue where, in the “Change Cast’s Equipment” panel, the selected Item to be Equipped would reset to “None” after closing and reopening the panel.
- Fixed a layout issue in the “Obtain Cast Status” panel that occurred when selecting “State” as the target to retrieve.
Ver. 2.1.0.1†
New and Improved Features†
Map Editor†
- You can now change the default key settings (Top Menu > Functions > Configuration> Hotkeys) for the following operation added in Ver. 2.1:
Prioritize Placement: While holding this key, placement operations will take priority over manipulator operations when placing objects.
The default key for this operation has been changed to "Y".
Bug Fixes†
Layout Tool†
- Fixed an issue introduced in Ver. 2.1 where, after copying and pasting a layout, the “Submenu Container to Select When Pressing Down” setting for submenu containers would be removed.
Published Work Export†
- Fixed an issue introduced in Ver. 2.1 where, when the game speed was increased via an event, the behavior differed between test play and single-player execution.
Ver. 2.1.0†
New and Improved Features†
Input Bindings Screen†
- Implemented the "Input Bindings" screen that allows players to customize controls during gameplay.
It has been added at the very bottom of the "Menu" category in the Layout Tool > Screen List, just below the "Exit Game Confirmation" screen.
- Added input binding-related actions to the "Action" property of the submenu container.
Please refer to the system layout for usage instructions.
- Added a new operation "MENU-BINDING_REMOVE" to Game Definition > Move and Operate > Key/Button Assignments.
This "MENU-BINDING_REMOVE" allows you to remove a key or button assignment from a submenu container in the Input Bindings screen.
(!)No default key is assigned to "MENU-BINDING_REMOVE". If needed, please assign a key via Game Definition > Move & Operate > Key/Button Assignments.
DirectInput Controllers†
- DirectInput controllers are now supported in exported projects.
In the input bindings screen, DirectInput button names are displayed using names corresponding to those of XInput controllers.
Setting Transition Time for Rendering Settings†
- Added a transition duration setting to the "Change Rendering Settings" panel.
Except for certain settings, rendering settings can now be changed gradually over a specified period.
- Please note that this feature provides interpolation between the original and target settings specifically for "value-setting type" properties.
Properties that are simple on/off switches like FXAA, or algorithm selections like SSAO type or shadow cascade count, may not transition smoothly unless the settings before and after the change are aligned.
- This feature does not apply to settings that are turned off.
For example, when switching from setting "A" with "VIGNETTE" turned off to setting "B" with "VIGNETTE" turned on, the effect will not be applied to "VIGNETTE".
In such cases, enable "VIGNETTE" in "A" and set its value to "0" to apply the transition effect.
- The transition between skybox models is achieved using dithering and scaling to switch between the current and new models.
(The new model is placed larger than the current model, then the current model is scaled up while the new model is scaled down.)
As a result, if the size difference between the two models is too large, the transition may not work smoothly.
(!)note: The EP1_sky01–03 models and other skybox models have different sizes, so they do not transition seamlessly.
- Also, skybox models are loaded during the switch. You can reduce the loading time by enabling the internal format option in Game Definition > Project Settings.
- If a save is made while switching rendering settings, the game will be saved in the "after-switch" state.
Events†
- Added a "Check Key Input" panel under the Conditional Judgment category, allowing direct detection of key inputs.
- Added a condition panel to sheet execution conditions that allows comparison between string variables and specified strings.
- Added an option to the "Change Player/Event Movement Speed" panel to change speed without affecting walking animations.
If "Change Walk Motion" is not checked, the walking motion will not be changed.
- Added a feature to the "Display Free Layout for Event" panel that allows skipping the hide animation when closing the free layout for events.
Map Editor†
- Implemented a feature that allows changing the assigned stamp of an object selected on a map.
- You can change it from the "Stamp" entry added under the properties in the Placed List.
- Properties such as position, rotation, and scale will be retained, allowing only the graphic to be changed.
- If an event is selected, the graphic of the first sheet will be replaced.
- Added expand/collapse buttons for groups/folders in the Placed List palette and Common Event List.
- When placing objects or local lights, holding Shift while performing the action now prioritizes placement even if the cursor is over the manipulator.
Immediately after placing an object, manipulator operations take priority when the cursor is over the manipulator. Local light placement behavior has been unified with object placement operations.
These changes make it easier to continue placing objects consecutively.
- Improved the behavior of the eraser tool so that it immediately deletes objects when the eraser cursor passes over them.
- Added a feature to the far-right menu at the bottom of the Map Editor that visually highlights terrain with the non-traversable and/or liquid attribute.
Use this to identify terrain with the same texture but different properties.
Game Definition†
- Added an option under Rules & Rendering > Rendering Options to allow users to choose whether rendering settings changed by events should be retained.
Layout Tool†
- Added a new layout property to the Equipment Item Selection screen:
"Management Tags for Items to be Displayed".
You can now filter which equipment items are shown based on tags assigned under Database > Items.
Plugins†
- Movie playback-related processes have been consolidated into a new class: MoviePlayer.
For details, please refer to the Plugin Reference.
Localization Toolkit†
- When using resource localization, specified resources are now always included in public exports.
Bug Fixes†
Resources / Internal Format†
- Fixed an issue where enabling texture compression could degrade alpha channel quality.
In some cases, objects using alpha-cutout textures (e.g., discard-type shaders) would not render correctly when far from the camera.
This issue was more likely to occur if the alpha cutoff threshold in the discard shader was set significantly lower than 1.
- When converting to the internal format, texture compression is automatically enabled. Please keep the following in mind if you are using internal format:
- (!)Note When using internal format, textures will be reconverted on project startup. As a result, please be aware that opening the project for the first time after this update may take additional time.
- (!)Note If you're using internal format and notice the issue mentioned above, we recommend exporting your project again.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Events†
- Fixed an issue where events without collision settings placed next to elevated terrain were still recognized as walkable, even when "Disable Jumping from Elevation" was enabled in the Game Definition.
- Fixed a bug where, during battle, message/conversation panels did not correctly display speech bubbles when targeting "Player" or "nth in the Party".
- Fixed an inconsistency in wait time behavior when using the "Change Game Speed" panel between the Bakin tool and published builds.
- Fixed a bug where the "Change Game Speed" panel did not correctly affect walking speed.
- The "Display Layout Screen" panel is not supported during battle events.
However, if it was used via a common event with the "Wait to Complete" option enabled, the battle could become stuck. This issue has been fixed.
- Fixed an issue where empty conversations/messages interpreted as backlog entries would still be added to the backlog list.
Layout Tool†
- Fixed a bug where using the mouse to operate a spin panel configured with the "Change the Value of a Variable" action did not correctly apply the value to the variable.
- Fixed a bug in the Layout Parts List where rearranging multiple layout parts via drag and drop could incorrectly change their order.
Database†
- Fixed an exception that occurred in the "Items" list when switching the "Weapon/Armor" property while multiple entries were selected.
- Fixed a bug in the "Skills" list where switching the "Available on Maps / Available in Battles" property while multiple entries were selected caused the skill descriptions to be cleared.
- Fixed a bug under Casts > Battles where newly added items could not be registered in the drop item list when configuring the Reward for Being Defeated as an Enemy field.
Battles†
- Fixed an issue where an exception could occur if an enemy was spawned via an event during battle and immediately set as the attack target.
Test Play†
- Fixed an issue where an exception could occur after applying filters in the Variable Monitor tab of the Debug Window.
Gameplay Issues†
- Fixed an issue where the reference coordinates for environmental effects and the skybox were inconsistent depending on the camera type. These are now unified.
Ver. 2.0.2.1†
Bug Fixes†
DLC: Localization Toolkit†
- Fixed an issue in layout data localization where, in layouts with checkboxes in the Layout to be Assigned field (such as the main menu screen), the system layout was sometimes applied instead of the selected replacement layout.
- Fixed an issue in layout data localization where the pencil icon was displayed in the "Type" field even though it was not editable.
Ver. 2.0.2.0†
New and Improved Features†
Resources†
- Added a feature to set scale for particle effects.
Debug Window†
- Improved the Event Monitor to display the status of battle events during battles.
- Improved the behavior so that pressing the Enter key on the Variable Monitor tab no longer causes the game screen to respond.
Events†
- In the "Obtain Battle Information" panel, when retrieving values such as "Skill Target Number", where the target can be either an ally or an enemy, the system now obtains the index of the target manually selected by the player.
In other words, when using a skill configured as "Effect on Allies: Self / Effect on Enemies: Single Target", the index of the skill target selected by the player can now be retrieved.
Bug Fixes†
Database†
- Fixed an issue where copying and pasting a cast could cause event panels referencing the original cast to incorrectly reference the pasted cast instead.
Events†
- Fixed a bug where, during battle, if the second or later party member selected "Escape", the action type retrieved by the "Obtain Battle Information" panel would be incorrectly set to "Wait".
- Fixed a bug where using the "String Input" panel immediately after loading a map could cause an exception.
Resources†
- Fixed a bug where clicking the label of the last entry in the motion list and then pressing the delete button would cause an exception.

Others†
- Fixed a bug where dynamic patching for older battle scripts sometimes failed, causing build errors when exporting published works.
- Fixed an issue where, when a save destination folder was manually entered during project creation and an invalid path was specified (such as one with double path separators), the incorrect path would be saved in the history. This could cause published works to fail when exported.
Localization Toolkit(DLC)†
- Layout data can now be replaced per language.
- Fixed a bug where the "Change Item Name" panel was not included as translatable content.
- Fixed bugs where some layout elements were not listed or unrelated elements were mistakenly included for translation.

Resources†
- Fixed a bug where changes to "Model Optimization" and "Scale" in the Import Asset dialog (when adding resources) were not being applied unless "Same Settings Hereafter" was checked in the property panel on the right side of the dialog.
When "Same Settings Hereafter" is checked, the selected settings will be saved and used as the default for future imports.
- Fixed a bug where an exception occurred in the Import Asset/Add Asset/Delete Asset dialog when adding or removing resources, if the tree view was not selected.
- The Resources > Particles > Emitter Control feature, which was added in version 2.0.0.0, has been temporarily withdrawn due to insufficient preparation and operational verification. We appreciate your understanding.

Ver. 2.0.0†
New and Improved Features†
Item Usage Restrictions and Unlocking†
- Updated the UI and added new functionality to the "Usable Items" section for Casts/Classes.
- Changed the system to specify "Unusable Items" instead of usable ones.
When making selections, you can now specify tags assigned to items. This allows for settings like "All weapons with blades are unusable."
- Added a "Required Level" feature that unlocks the use of specific items once the cast reaches a designated level.
Add/Remove Equipment Slots†
- Implemented a feature to add and remove equipment parts for casts.
This feature has been added to:
Database > Casts > Equipment and Abilities tab > Initial Equipment field
- A maximum of two weapons can be equipped. (Combinations such as weapon & weapon, weapon & shield, or shield & shield are allowed)
- Equipment parts include: Weapon, Weapon/Shield, Shield, Headgear, Body Armor, Leg Armor, and Accessories.
Accessories can be added without limit.
- Equipment parts can also be removed.
(!) When an equipment part is removed, any settings related to that part (such as status abilities) will also be deleted.
For example, if the Headgear part is removed, the equipment part designation for helmet-type armor will be cleared.
Please carefully check to ensure no unintended consequences occur after deletion.
- In Database > Item Properties, if the "Damage" flag is enabled for equipped items, an attack will be processed for each such item.
- Multi-Attack Modifier is the adjustment value applied to the final damage when attacking with multiple weapons.
- Attachment Bones are only effective when the cast's graphics are in 3D.
Please ensure that the equipment part is specified in the ability settings of the item to be equipped.
- Added a new ability in the database that allows you to disable equipment using the "Equipment Disable" status effect by specifying a tag.
- Added a new control \equipposicon to the layout tool, which supports custom equipment slots for displaying equipment position icons in layouts.
- When creating a new project, preset status abilities for "Disable Dual Wielding" and "Two-Handed Weapon" are now automatically added to the Database under Status Definition.
Scroll Bar†
- A scroll bar feature has been added to menu containers.
- This cannot be used in conjunction with the "Page Mark" feature.
- "Enable Auto Expansion" is intended for cases where menu items increase over time, such as in an item list.
- If you place one submenu container with "Disable Auto Assignment Container Management Number" turned off, sub-menu containers will automatically increase as needed.
- When the cursor hovers over a submenu container with "Disable Auto Assignment Container Management Number" turned on, use directional keys that are not in the scroll direction.
- Child elements of the menu container will be the scrollable content.
- For child elements, please enable the following settings: "Clipping with Parent Container" and "Clip Based on All Parent Bounds".
- If you want to place elements within the visible area of the menu container that should not scroll, do not make them child elements of the menu container.
Example: To display a menu heading, place the text panel outside the menu container’s hierarchy.
- It is recommended to avoid overlapping submenu containers and the scroll bar.
- If cursor position interpolation is used, the cursor may temporarily disappear when moving back in the opposite direction of the scroll. This occurs until the entry the cursor points to returns to the visible scroll area, and is a known specification.
Special Format Parameter Variable Support†
- Added support for using variables (including nested ones) as parameters in special format strings.
Supports regular variables, cross-save variables, and array variables.
Use variable syntax in the parameter, like: \partystatus[\$[]].
Theme Color Switching†
- We have implemented a theme color switching feature in “Configuration”.
The tool must be restarted after changes are made.
Color settings will continue to be improved in future updates. For the time being, however, there are no plans to change the color of the scroll bars.
Database†
- Added support for tag-based specification in the "Skills to be Learned" section for Casts/Classes.
- Added copy & paste functionality to the "Level" and "Status" sections of Casts/Classes.
- When recovering from the "Instant Death" state, "Ability When Equipped" will now be re-applied properly.
Layout Tool†
- Implemented the ability to control variables from the spin panel, just like with the slider panel.
- When a thumb image is set for a slider panel, you can now drag the thumb to change the value.
- In the Ticker screen, automatic line breaks set on containers are now properly applied.
- When system layouts are overwritten, the display state check will now be preserved.
(!) While this behavior has been improved, we still recommend copying the system (default) layout before editing or using it.
- Implemented a feature to make it easier to insert parameters for special formats in dialogs such as the Special Format Insertion dialog.
For certain special formats that require parameters, a list of suggested values now appears on the right side of the dialog. Previously, users had to manually enter these values while referring to the list.
With this update, double-clicking an entry in the list will automatically insert the selected value into the last [] parameter slot of the tag.
Events†
- Added an option to the "String Input" panel to disallow confirmation when the input is an empty string.
- Added a setting to specify interpolation time in the "Change Cast/Event Motion" panel.

- In the text mode event editing screen, the following features were added:
- Added hotkeys: Press "I" to insert a panel, and "Enter" or "E" to edit a panel.
- Added "Insert Panel" and "Edit Panel" options to the context menu.
- Graphics can now be changed by clicking the graphic name field in the event sheet.
- Improved scrollbar behavior so that all fields in the editor now display scrollbars correctly when needed.
Resources†
- Improved the dialog that appears when adding or removing resources.
Related resources are now displayed in a tree format, allowing you to select which resources to add or remove.
- Added a feature that allows you to copy and paste motions in the motion list.
Tag List†
(!) Note
If you roll back to a previous version after upgrading to this version, the content that was in the "Management Tags + Memo" field will be altered as described below.
Please note that this change cannot be undone.
- When rolling back, the text in the "Management Tags + Memo" field will be rewritten as shown below.
If it was written like "Tag memo Tag memo", it will be changed to "Tag Tag memo memo", with tags and memos separated.
- Additionally, if you added descriptions to tags in this version, those descriptions will be lost upon rollback.
- The "Management Tags + Memo" fields that were present in various menus have been split into separate "Tag List" and "Memo" fields.
- Added a new "Tag List" feature.
When adding a tag, you can now choose from existing tags already assigned to items in the same category.
- Tags can now have descriptions.
Game Definition†
- Renamed the "Localization Tool" (previously found in the Common Terms menu) to "Text Replacement Tool".
Added a filtering feature to the Text Replacement Tool.

- The Variable Monitor has been separated into its own tab.
- Changed the layout to a tree format.
- Added a filtering feature.
- Values now apply instantly in the game when confirmed.
Save Data†
- Configuration settings are now saved globally across all save data.
Previously, config settings were saved separately for each save file, which required users to reconfigure things like BGM volume every time.
This has been changed so that settings now apply to all save data.
Map Editor†
- Under Functions > Configuration > Hotkeys, you can now set hotkeys for the “Paste Terrain Sides” function.
Assets†
- When creating a new project, we have made some improvements to the resources included in the “BasicSet” imported as “Asset Quantity: Normal.”
- We converted textures to PNG format to reduce the project size.
- Some models have improved details.

- Fixed a bug where, when a minimum value was set for a slider panel, the position of the slider thumb would not align correctly with the mouse pointer.
Layout Tool: Other†
- Renamed the "Include Parent in Clipping" property of rendering containers to "Clip Using All Parent Bounds" to more accurately reflect its actual behavior.
When this property is enabled, clipping is performed based on all ancestor containers of the rendering container.
- Fixed a bug where, when selecting “Initialize Config” in-game, sliders that are children of submenu containers assigned with the “Change the Value of a Variable (for Slider)” action were not being reset properly.
- Fixed a bug in the Store screen where, when selecting an item, the background board of the status display would appear one frame late.
- Fixed a bug where cursor movement between containers did not work correctly when there were multiple menu containers and multiple columns within the containers.
Events†
- Fixed a bug in the "Teleport Event" panel where individual cast events on the map could not be uniquely identified and selected.

Gameplay Issues†
- Fixed a bug where, during frame drops, cast members in the Party Train could freeze in mid-air.
- Fixed a bug where sound effect volume settings were not applied to movies.
- To prevent performance drops when showing the first conversation event in the game, environment maps and LUTs used for conversation are now preloaded.
- Fixed a bug where items with the "State Granting" ability would not be consumed upon use.
Items will now be properly consumed if the state is successfully applied.
- Fixed a bug where using an item with the “State Granting” ability on a map would apply the ability to the entire party.
- Fixed a memory leak where framebuffer memory would accumulate each time a sprite was displayed.
Asset Picker†
- Fixed a bug where an exception would occur when sorting by entry name in list view.
- Fixed a bug in list view where display glitches could occur if the management tag or memo field contained very long text.
- Fixed a bug where, when opening the Asset Picker from menus other than the "Resources" menu and attempting to re-import a previously imported local file, the corresponding resource would not be properly selected.
- Fixed a bug where the "Local Files" filter was not correctly set when selecting an effect, and updated it to include file extensions used for particle effects.
- Adjusted the resource import process to prevent unnecessary warning messages from appearing midway.
Resources†

- Fixed a bug where the latest settings were not applied to other maps using the same rendering settings.
Variable List†
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception to occur when collecting information from event panels that contained deleted elements in the Variable List dialog.
Ver. 1.15.1.2†
Bug Fixes†
Gameplay Issue†
- Since Ver. 1.15.1.1, an exception occurred when using an item with no skill assigned during battles.
Ver. 1.15.1.1†
Bug Fixes†
Published Work Export†
- Due to changes in Windows 11 security policies, there was an issue where games could not be launched if a ZIP file containing published work downloaded from the internet was extracted using Windows' built-in extraction tool.
We have implemented a workaround to address this issue.
- If the game is not distributed in ZIP format (e.g., if the game is distributed on Steam, etc.), this problem does not occur.
- (!)If you are distributing your work as a zip file, please see the following instructions.
- If you have exported your work in version 1.15.1.1 or earlier and published it in ZIP format, please export your project again with the “Published Work Export” function to resolve the issue.
- In addition, this problem can be avoided by taking the following actions for those who have downloaded the ZIP file of a project exported with a previous version.
If necessary, please inform users of the following measures.
- Right-click the downloaded ZIP file, open the properties, and check “Allow” in the security section at the bottom.
- Use a non-standard Windows extractor such as 7-Zip when extracting.

This mode does not impart aural simulated sound effects but only reflects positional information in simple panning to the left and right speakers.
The properties of the sound resource can be configured in detail.
Resources†
- The following properties were added to Sounds:
- Processing Metho (Binaural/Planar)

- Attenuation Start Distance
- Attenuation End Distance
Layout Tool†
- Variables can now be used as display condition switches for submenu containers and rendering containers.
- Multiple display condition switches for submenu containers and rendering containers can now be set.
Normal Variables, Array Variables, and Cross-Save Variables can be used as switches or variables.
In addition, multiple conditions can be applied.

You can return the material to the same settings as the model you have specified for the graphics.
- Images for thumbnails added when importing VRM models are now included in the tree of the “Images” menu.
The model created by Vroid Studio includes an image called “thumbnail”. By registering this image as an image, it is easy to use it as an icon image.
Game Definition†
- Added “Party Train Spacing” to the “Move and Operate” menu.
The spacing between casts in the Party Train be adjusted.
Events†
- Added a new event start condition: "Repeat in Parallel / Sync with Physics".
This allows you to run processes synchronized with the physics engine, executing 60 times per second consistently without being affected by frame drops.
This option is now available for normal events, common events, and cast events.
[Additional Notes]
This condition is intended for cases where you want to move the camera, events, or player little by little each frame, or for timing-sensitive games like rhythm games.
If you’re implementing custom movement and are noticing issues caused by frame drops, you may want to consider using this option.
In other cases, we recommend using the regular event start conditions.
(!)When “Sync with Physics” is enabled, the process will still run 60 times per second even during frame drops. However, using this too much can reduce the system’s ability to handle heavy loads, which may lead to lower frame rates.
Also, since input handling (like button presses) is updated during the regular Update cycle, using this setting may sometimes result in inputs being processed twice.
Test Play†
- The “Level/EXP” of “Casts/Classes/Subclasses” can now be changed in the Cast Parameter Check View.
- Added the ability to display the performance meter from the menu in the test play launched from the center click.

Projects that were edited after ver. 1.14.1 are left with the previous default value of "2", so please adjust accordingly.
CCD (Continuous Collision Detection) was introduced to prevent the player from passing through mesh colliders when moving at high speed.
The "CCD Radius Coefficient" acts as a multiplier for the player's collision detection. Increasing this value can help reduce instances of passing through objects. However, it may also cause side effects, such as making the player bounce off edges more easily when jumping near ledges or steps.
In version 1.14.1, the default value was set slightly higher to reduce the chances of the player passing through objects or terrain at high speeds.
However, considering side effects such as behavior when jumping near ledges or steps, we have adjusted the default setting in this update.
(!) If you do not need this feature, you can set the value to "0" to disable CCD and revert to the same behavior as in versions prior to 1.14.
Bug Fixes†
Events†
- Fixed a bug in which the "Execute Common Event" panel settings added in Ver. 1.13.2 were not properly applied.
The behavior up to Ver. 1.14.1 was specifically as follows:
- "Wait to Complete" is also applied to "Wait until the Event is Executable".
- "Wait until the Event is Executable" is interpreted as "Start Execution from Next Frame"
- The check status of "Start Execution from Next Frame" is not affected by the execution of events.
(!) This may change the behavior of the "Execute Common Event" panel added in Ver. 1.13.2 or later.
Now these will work as described in each option.
The behavior after this version is the correct implementation. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
- Fixed a bug that caused the "Display Message" panel and "Display Conversation" panel, where only Text Commands are described, to be skipped after Ver. 1.14.1.
- Fixed a bug where newly generated events were incorrectly treated as hits when using the "Change Player/Event Scale" panel, starting from version 1.14.1.
Map Editor†
- Fixed a bug that could cause the tool to crash when changing the "Background Material" in the Map Settings Palette > Rendering Settings.
Gameplay Issues†
- Fixed a bug that, after Ver. 1.14.1, when playing the first test after starting the project, the values of the near clips of the terrain used were sometimes incorrect.
- Fixed a bug that prevented some of the memory of cast-based events from being discarded when moved to a different map during play.
Resources†
- Fixed a bug that, since Ver. 1.14.1, the larger the amount of data in a project, the longer it took to change parameters in resource management.
Others†
- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused an exception when opening a project that has been continuously worked on from an older version since Ver. 1.14.1.
1.14.1†
New and Improved Features†
Game Play†
- Countermeasures have been taken and improved for cases where the player falls at high speed and goes through the mesh collider.
The player-side processing has been modified, which may slightly change the behavior during collisions. Therefore, the following feature has been newly implemented to allow it to be turned off or adjusted as needed.
- New “CCD Radius Coefficient” in the Game Definition > Move and Operate menu.
By changing the radius coefficient, the bounce of the collision can be adjusted.
Setting the radius coefficient to 0 will return to the previous process.
- Various improvements have been made to internal engine stability.
- When the number of local lights exceeds the limit per cluster in a map, improvements have been made to discard the lights so that they are as picture-perfect as possible.

- Fixed a bug that prevented the File Import and Material Sharing dialogs from being displayed when importing a model from the Add button in the Resources > 3D Stamp List.
- Fixed a bug where after adding resources from some DLCs, thumbnail generation would stop and the application would not close properly.
Map Editor†
- Fixed a bug that caused an error dialog to appear and broke the texture of the generated model when “Export Model” was executed with terrain containing stairs selected.
Camera†
- Fixed a bug that could cause incorrect culling when the terrain of a map was set to an elevation near the upper limit (Y=25).

This also fixes a bug that caused an “exception” when operating the “Enable Switch” with the state recovery ability with the target set to “Valid Only for Those KOs”.
- Fixed a bug in the skill ability settings that when “None” was selected for the ability range of a skill in the “Effect on Allies” tab, the effect range of the skill in the “Effect on Enemies” tab would also be set to “None”.
Resources†
- When multiple models imported by the following methods cause overwriting of imported models and the “Model Re-Import Option” dialog box appears, the settings have been modified so that they can be updated at once with the same settings.
- Drag-and-drop import to in the Resources menu
- Import from Asset Picker > “Local Files” tab
- Modified the “Model Re-Import Option” dialog so that the “Fit Stamp Collision” option is always enabled, and it is now possible to change the checkbox even if the stamp in use includes stamps with the “Shape” property in “Simple Collision Settings” set to “Mesh”.
In addition, the collision fitting will not be applied to stamps whose “Shape” in “Simple Collision Settings” is “Mesh” as it has been in the past.

New and Improved Features†
Use of Multiple Fonts in a Game†
"Fonts" has been added as a new resource type, which can be optionally switched for each layout element or message.
Resources†
- A new “Fonts” menu has been established.
The fonts set here can be selected and applied in the game at various locations in the tool.
- You can import ttf/otf files.
- Default font and ruby sizes and various offsets can be set.
- Supports import/export of fonts in exrbr format.
- A type of bold feature is being implemented for font resources that enlarges the outline as a property.
The “Bold” feature in the Text Commands in the event panels and in the text panels of the layout tool was a simple bolding feature that rendered a double font with a shifting font.
This function enlarges the outline and renders it as a separate character, which consumes additional memory but produces a high-quality bold effect.
Game Definition†
- New “Default Font Settings” in System Resources.
You can specify a default font to be used for messages in the game and text in the layout.
Events†
- A text command \f[], which allows users to specify fonts, is now available in various event panels that handle text.
- Display Conversation
- Display Message
- Display Ticker Text
- Display Text as Image
(!)At present, for the Selection Panel, please specify the font in the Text Panel of the Layout Tool > Selection screen.
(!)It is not currently possible to use a different font for each selection.
(!)For the text input panel, please specify the font in the text panel of the Layout Tool > Text Input screen.
Layout Tool†
- A new “Fonts” option has been added to the properties of the text panel.
If you want to change the default font of the conversation depending on the scene, you can do so by preparing multiple layouts of the conversation screen and switching between them with an event.
Binding of Multiple Plugins†
Events†
Multiple C# scripts can be bound to an event.
- The C# program assignment field in the lower left corner of the Event Editor has a field that increases each time one is assigned.
- When specifying the C# method to call using the “Call C# Program” panel, you can now select from a tree-style dialog box.
- The "Call C# Program" panel summary now displays the specified return value and arguments.
The summary is the string that appears when the event panel is closed.
Editor Localization Mod Support†
Editor Localization†
A .tsv file (English version) with the main texts of the Bakin editor is now available.
You can localize the editor itself by localizing the tsv file and some files and placing them in a specific folder.
See Editor Localization for more information.
Other Additions and Improvements†
Events†
- When opening the Event Editor, the sheet that was open before the last time the editor was closed is now automatically opened.
- The following functions have been added to the “Change Game Speed” panel:
- New “Omit Physics Update” section.
Enabling this can help avoid a situation where the speed of event skipping stops increasing.
- Improved so that no fanfare is played when “Mute Sound Effects” is turned on.
- "Mute Sound Effects" is now independent of other options and always selectable.
(!)However, if “Undo if Selection Waiting Occurs” is turned on, the game speed will be restored, and the mute will be removed.

- Fixed a bug that could cause the event progress to be incorrectly saved during save and load if multiple sheets were in progress at the same time within an event.
(!)A new “Save in Compatibility Mode (Deprecated)” has been added to Game Definition > Rules and Rendering to maintain compatibility with previous saves.
If you wish to maintain the previous save process, turn this switch on.
- Fixed a bug that prevented all but the Y angle of events from being saved in the save data.
- Fixed a bug where graphics for decal events were not being saved correctly in the save data.
- When using the “Make Player/Event Walk to Specified Coordinates” panels, the processing of the last frame for processing the completion of the move has been corrected.
In some cases, this problem caused objects with the player/event on them to be left behind.
- Fixed a bug where ending a battle using the “Terminate Battle Forcibly” panel could cause the next battle to not proceed to the battle command selection scene.
- Fixed a bug in which changing the state of the “Force Granting Below a Certain Value” ability during battle, such as in the “Make/Cure Battle Cast State Change” panel, did not change the consumption value correctly.
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when trying to select DLC with “decals” in the “Change Event Graphic” panel.
- Fixed a bug in which Stamp A on the map could disappear when the “Stamp A added from DLC” was placed on an open map and the graphic was selected from “Graphics included in DLC” in the “Change Event Graphic” panel in the Event Editor.
Resources†

- Fixed a bug that caused the currently edited stamp to be displayed as a candidate for selection in the Asset Picker when specifying a graphic for a subgraphic.
- Fixed a bug in which material settings were not cleared when the “3D Stamp” graphic was changed from "Model" to "Other than Model".
- Fixed a bug that caused the preview model to revert to the default (spherical) when changing material textures, etc.
- Fixed a bug in which the "Image" slice X/Y disabling process did not work when the image was specified as a "sprite" image in the "Image" property's "2D Settings" when the "Slice" was set to "PixelSlice" and the number of slices was set to less than 1.
- Fixed a bug that caused VRM files to be displayed as candidates for selection in the Asset Picker when selecting "Motion Set," "Motion," or "Physics Settings" from a local file in a resource.
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when updating a model with no material set.

- Fixed a bug that caused decals to be displayed incorrectly for models with toonvrm0x shader specified in the material.
- Fixed assignment of white textures to shaders where default textures were not defined for normal maps and were undefined.
(!)If a texture is set on the normal map, there is no change.
(!)Please note that this modification may slightly change the appearance of the water surface from the previous version.
Gameplay Issues†
- Fixed a bug that prevented the experience bar animation on the Battle Result screen from applying the increase/decrease in experience obtained from the “State” abilities.
- Fixed a bug that prevented events placed on the event battle map from being applied when the same cast as the battle background of the current map was placed on the event battle background map.
- Fixed a bug where skills made usable by equipping items were being learned again upon leveling up if they were also set as learnable skills for the cast.
- Fixed a bug where if a monster was “instantly killed” by the “State Granting (When Removed)” ability in “States”, the instant death was processed after all party cast members had completed their command selection.
- Fixed a bug where the consumption values of a party cast affected by a "state" that changes values like "Instant Death" through the "State Granting (When Removed)" ability were not applied in the battle status panel until after all party members had finished selecting their commands.
Layout Tool†
- On the map screen, the red frame that was forcibly displayed for the map has been removed.
Database†
- Fixed a bug that prevented the enable/disable switch in the “Casts” characteristics field from working.

- Fixed a bug that could cause file creation permission checks to fail when creating project folders.
- Fixed a bug that caused differences to be detected when closing a project, even after loading a newer version of the project and pressing the save button.
1.13.2.3†
Bug Fixes†
Layout Tool†
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when closing the layout tool after Ver. 1.13.2 or later while a layout using certain special formats, such as Equipment Item Selection, was open.
Sample Game†
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when opening the “Mini Map: Simple” event in the Common Events palette of the Dungeon RPG Sample since Ver. 1.13.2.
1.13.2.2†
Bug Fixes†
Resources†
- Fixed a bug that could cause the window to freeze when narrowing down the list of entries in each resource menu and then releasing it.
- Fixed a bug in which copying a folder containing sprites in the resource menu caused the duplicated sprite entities to be shared with existing resources.
Events†
- Fixed the following bugs that occurred while accelerating the game speed in the “Change Game Speed” panel since Ver. 1.13.2.
- Fixed a bug in the “Make Player/Event Walk to Specified Coordinates” panels where movement was interrupted as soon as the “Abort if Unable to Move” checkbox was checked.

- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when an event name was left blank and the enter key was pressed on the event sheet.
1.13.2†
New and Improved Features†
Engine Optimizations†
- Optimized internal engine (faster operation).
This will improve the performance speed of games created with Bakin.
(!)If you have already released your work, please try the Published Work Export again to apply this update to your game.
- Modifications have been made to improve the stability of the internal engine.
Test Play†
- The names of parameters in the Performance Meter have been modified to be more easily understood.
The explanation of each process visible on the Performance Meter and measures to reduce the load of each process will be published in the online manual > Performance Meter.
Please also see Creation Tips for ideas on how to reduce processing load.
Events†
- The expression in the sheet list when editing an event has been modified so that "Normal Sheets" and "Parallel Sheets" are displayed separately.
At the same time, the processing order of sheets was changed from "the lower the priority" to "the higher the priority".
(!) The order of the sheet listings for existing events will be automatically converted with the update.
(!) As before, parallel sheets are processed after normal sheets.
- The following options have been added to the "Execute Common Event" panel.
- Wait until the event is ready to execute.
- Wait for completion.
- Start execution from the next frame.
It checks the status of the common events being called and made it easier to control the timing when the common events are executed.
- The condition for the appearance of the clock icon on the event panel has been made more stringent.
If the "Wait to Complete" type option is not checked, the panel no longer displays the clock icon.
- Clock icon (wait icon) is now visible in text view mode as well.
(!)An event panel with a clock icon indicates that a time lapse will occur during the execution of that panel.
Conversely, panels without a clock icon are executed all at once in a single frame.
Even in parallel events, these panels do not execute the next panel until completion.
- Added a function to the "Check Surrounding Collision Detection" panel to obtain the coordinates of the intersection of the ray cast and the target.
- Added "Generated Events" as a check target in the "Check Surrounding Collision Detection" panel.
- For the "Check Collision State" panel, a decision specifying the type of cast event has been added.
- The "Advanced Variable Box Operation" panel has been added to obtain the "Distance and Angle between Player and Event".
- The internal processing of text input when "Use Physical Keyboard" is used in the "String Input" panel has been improved.
Database†
- Added “State (Characteristic) to be Learned” for cast members and classes.
This is a so-called "passive skill".
The "state" created in "State Definition" can be assigned.
This makes it easier to create distinctive data, such as cast members who are "always easily targeted" or classes that "always receive a large amount of reward for battle".
- The following conditions apply to the conditions that can be set for the characteristics.
- All removal conditions must be unset.
- The "Force Granting Below a Certain Value" ability is not set.
- Even if the above does not apply, the state can be set as a characteristic if the #characteristics tag is used.
Resources†
- Previously, 2D stamps with "Lighting" turned "off" required the texture "SRGB" option to be turned off, but this has been corrected to require SRGB to be turned on, just as when Lighting is "on".
This means that all stamp images to be placed on the map should be SRGB-on.
(!) Please note that the texture settings for the above will be automatically changed to the same rendering as in the previous version when an existing project is loaded.
- Added "Use as Item Hook" option to subgraphic properties.
Subgraphics with this option can be used for joints of weapons and armor in battles.
Previously, models without itemhook, such as VRM models, could not hold the models set as weapons or armor in their hands in the Database when they entered a battle.
With the addition of this option, it is now possible to put an equipped weapon or armor item in the hands of the cast when entering a battle.
- Settings are made in the following ways:
- Set subgraphics on the cast stamp.
- In the subgraphic properties, set either "Right Hand/Left Hand" in this option.
- In addition, adjust the relative position/angle in the subgraphic properties. (It is difficult to adjust without graphics, so it is better to set graphics such as a sword and then adjust the position etc.)
- The subgraphic models should generally not be specified.
- If you want the right hand and the left hand to have their own subgraphics, set up separate subgraphics for the right hand and the left hand.
- In blend shapes, the position of the key's reset button has been moved above the list of keys.
Also added a shortcut key Ctrl+R to reset the keys. The reset button, which was above the preview, has been moved to the position that is easier to press, since it is frequently reset when key information is changed.
- Added pause button to Resources/Particles.
- The behavior of the jump button to the original resource in the properties of Resources > each menu has been improved when selected by clicking with the mouse.
VRM Models†
- Improved compatibility with VRM model motion.
- When a VRM model is imported, xxx.vrm.humanoid.fbx is generated.
This FBX has a simple bone structure that improves compatibility with humanoid bones.
This makes it less prone to errors when importing into Mixamo.
Currently 3 FBX models are generated when importing a VRM model, we intend to output only this xxx.vrm.humanoid.fbx in the future.
Game Definition†
- A frame rate limit function has been implemented in the Project Settings.
When a game is executed, the game will run at a frame rate near the specified value.
This feature can be used to avoid consuming full GPU power even when vertical synchronization is turned off.
Variable Usage Location†
- Improved behavior when double-clicking on a row in the “Variables Used details” list to open the Event Editor.
- The event sheet that uses the variable has been made accessible.
- The event name can now be changed on the event sheet.
Camera Tool†
- Improved reloading of rendering settings when editing the rendering settings of the map currently being edited.
Plugins†
- Allows access to other MapCharacter class members via casts.
- Fixed isCommonEvent to return the correct value at the timing of the start method of the C# plugin.
- The @@link function can now load DLLs in the script folder.
Top Menu†
- Changed to a default setting for player character graphic when creating a new project.
Assets†
- Added humanoid models with bone structure to the “3D Tutorial” project in the Game Gallery for easy addition and modification of motions in Mixamo and Blender.
- Reviewed the pre-installed Effect Pack vol.1 particle Prewarm Settings.
Considering the load given by Prewarm Settings, the set number of seconds has been modified to shorten if the set number is too long.
We are also reviewing Particle Settings in pre-installed projects such as Orb Stories.
(!)If you are importing pre-installed particles into your own project, you may be able to reduce the load during map transitions by reviewing your Prewarm Settings.
Try to shorten it to the extent that it does not affect appearance.
You can refer to the particle settings in the Effect Pack in the following way:
- Create a new project and import all particles from Effect Pack Vol. 1
- Check the Prewarm Settings for the particles used in your project.
Others†
- "? Help” has been placed in each tool.
Clicking on the ? symbol to jump to the online manual related to the relevant section.
Bug Fixes†
Test Play†
- Fixed a bug that prevented closing the test play dialog when keyboard text input was enabled during test play.
Events†
- Fixed a bug in which the value stored in the variable at the top of the variable list would affect the range of contact determination when performing contact determination with terrain using the "Check Collision State" panel.
- Fixed a bug in which targets were not detected even if "Including Non-Collision Targets" was turned on in the "Check Collision State" panel in the following cases.
- The event itself has the “Collide with Events” setting turned on.

- Fixed a bug in the variable list where the open/close state of the tree was not saved when multiple variable entries were added to a multiplexed variable folder.
Battles†
- Fixed to add EXP only to cast members who are still in the battle at the end of the battle.
"Cast members removed from a party by an event" will no longer receive EXP.
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when removing a cast member from the party who used a skill using a common event called from the skill.
- Fixed a bug that was causing events on the battle map that were set to be hidden in the Placed List palette to be displayed during battles.
Gameplay Issues†
- Fixed a bug that caused the player or events that were buried in a wall while moving to be pushed upward, even when moving sideways would be much closer to the wall.
Layout Tool†
- Fixed a bug that prevented skill filters by tags in Free Layout for Events from being applied correctly in some cases.
- Fixed a bug in the Layout to be Assigned field where the currently edited layout was not switched when deleting a layout.

In conjunction with the above, the minimum value of the near clip was reduced from 0 to 0.01.
- Fixed a bug in which selecting the battle center coordinates was not applied.
- Fixed a bug in the battle camera preview where changes to the battle layout position on the battle map were not being applied.
- When a camera is pasted in the camera list, the added camera is now selected.
Resources†
- Fixed a bug that prevented the 3D stamp of DLC displayed in the preview in the Asset Picker from displaying properly in the Map Editor when the stamp was placed on the Map Editor.
- Fixed a bug that caused the task to remain after exiting the application if the 3D stamp of DLC displayed in the preview in the Asset Picker was placed on the Map Editor.
- Fixed a bug that caused stamp thumbnails to be generated incorrectly in some cases.
- Fixed a bug that could cause the thumbnail to be empty if the size of the model assigned to the stamp was close to zero.
- Fixed a bug that caused the material sharing dialog to appear in some cases when importing in 3D stamps, even though there was no material to share with existing models.
- In Terrains, fixed a bug that prevented changes to the normal map and mask map textures of existing terrain stamps from being applied to the appearance of the terrain on the map.
- Fixed the behavior when clicking the "Jump to Referenced Resource" button in the resource properties. This update addresses issues such as incorrect destinations after the button is clicked.
- Fixed a bug in blend shapes where interpolation sometimes failed because the current value of a key could not be obtained.
- Fixed a bug in which the preview was not updated after replacing shaders or adjusting parameters when editing materials.
- Fixed thumbnail generation process after stamp generation.
VRM Models†
- Fixed a bug that caused incorrect Spring Bone status when Bakin was left unattended for an extended period while displaying VRM models.
- The root node of the VRM model is currently defined as “_root_”.
Considering this, we have fixed it so that attaching subgraphics to the same “_root” as FBX will work correctly.
Map Editor†
- When editing a map, if a terrain resource dedicated to stairs was on the map, the staircase texture would corrupt when the terrain under that resource was changed.
- When editing a map, the Fill tool no longer fills the terrain dedicated to stairs when used to fill the terrain.

1.13.1.1†
New and Improved Features†
Steam Workshop†
- The Steam Cloud Administration screen now displays the number of uploadable files remaining.
(*) This update increases the maximum number of files that can be uploaded to the Steam Workshop (Steam Cloud) from 25 to 100.
Please also note that due to changes in Steam's specifications, the total file size limit for uploads has been reduced from 10 GiB (10,737,418,240 bytes) to 10 GB (10,000,000,000 bytes).
Files will not be forcibly deleted even if the file size already uploaded exceeds the modified limit.
Resources†
- Property widths are now saved for each menu individually.
Bug Fixes†
Events†
- In the "Specify Battle Cast Action" panel, an exception could occur when specifying "Random" as the target.
Battle Plugin Sample†
- The following issues that occurred when using the battle plugins in the Battle Plugin Sample project have been fixed.
- Fixed a bug that caused action skips for all cast members to be inserted when the "Escape" command failed.
- Fixed a bug that prevented "Management Tags for the Selected Skill or Item of the Cast Currently in Action" from being obtained.
Gameplay Issues†
- Fixed a bug that could cause an exception when "Pre-load" is turned on in the Map Settings palette and event generation is performed in parallel with map pre-loading.
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when a cast level up occurred after deleting certain initial statuses in the Database and then loading “saved data with statuses saved as they were before the statuses were deleted” during gameplay.
Database†
- Fixed a bug in which "Including Non-Collision Targets" was not correctly judged for cast events when all the following three settings were turned on when "Including Non-Collision Targets" was specified in the execution conditions or "Check Collision State" panel on the event sheet.
- Database > Casts > "No Collision with Other Generated Events"
- Event Collision Settings > "Collide with Player"
- Event Collision Settings> "Collide with Other Events"
- Fixed a bug in which the attributes of weapons could not be obtained correctly when “Weapon Attribute” was specified in the “Skill Attribute” skill ability.
Layout Tool†
- The following bug has been fixed regarding the "Submenu Container to Select When Pressing (Directional Key)" property of the submenu container.
- Fixed a bug that caused a cursor movement sound when moving the cursor in the in-game menu when the destination was specified as "None".
- Fixed a bug that caused the cursor to be displayed on an invalid element when the specified destination was an invalid node, and the page was subsequently moved.
- Fixed a bug that caused multiple models to appear in the thumbnail in some formats such as \currentitemimage when using 3D models for item icons.
- Fixed a bug in the special format equipattributeicon where the attributes of weapons were not being obtained correctly.
Test Play†
- Fixed a bug that could cause a crash at the end of test play.
Resources†
- Improved compatibility to read VRM files that crash when imported.
- Fixed a bug that caused the motion set for VRM in System Resources to be lost when a VRM file was dragged into the Map Editor and then canceled after import.
1.13.1.0†
New and Improved Features†
Events†
- A "Manipulate Array Variable" panel has been implemented in the Variable Box category.
This panel can be used to rewrite some or all the elements of an array variable or to retrieve the number of elements.
- A "Batch Clear Variables" panel has been implemented in the Variable Box category. You can specify a folder in the variable list and clear all variables in that folder at once.
- An "Obtain Bone Coordinates" panel has been implemented in the Variable Box category.
- Offset specification has been added to the following event panels:
"Check Surrounding Collision Detection", "Generate Events" and "Display Effect".
- Added the option to delete placement adjustments (battle layouts) in the "Execute Battle and Check Results" panel.
Database†
- Added "Do Nothing" to the system tag for battle commands.
Usage example:
When specifying a tag for the "Disable Command" state ability, "Do Nothing" can be selected as the system tag.
Disabling "Do Nothing" will cause the "Do Nothing" column to be ignored by the enemy battle AI.
This allows, for example, to create "an enemy that begins to attack rapidly at a certain point in time".
- Separated "State" from the item ability "Attack Attribute" and added the "State Granting" ability.
The "Attack Attribute" ability had two mixed settings: "Attribute accompanying the attack" and "State generated to the opponent when the attack hits".
By separating them this time, we have made it possible to set the characteristics of the weapons more flexibly.
Battles†
- During battle, the enemy's appearance now displays their equipment.
Weapon models attached to item hooks will also be displayed during battles.
Layout Tool†
- When attempting to display status changes of "unequipable items" in the "Store" layout, the container to which they belong is now hidden.
Rendering Settings†
- The rendering engine has been modified to improve stability.
- Improved the process of applying fog to the water surface shader.
- The SSAO algorithm has been improved and the following settings have been added to improve rendering performance.
- SSAO algorithm added.
-View: Conventional algorithm.
-View (Corrected): The algorithm is the same as before, but the darkness parameter is now in a more adjustable range.
-Linear: The algorithm is less sensitive to the distance from the viewpoint.
- The following parameters have been added:
- Maximum Distance: Beyond the distance, the SSAO effect will not be applied.
This was implemented to improve the noise-like results that had sometimes appeared in areas far from the camera.
- Blur: Added a choice of blurring techniques.
- Previous: This is the previous blur. There is no sense of noise because of the large blur, but there is a problem with the blur being somewhat wide.
- Bilateral: It has less blur, but avoids extending blur to unnecessary areas.
- Half Bilateral: Bilateral is performed at half resolution. The blur is extended, but may be slightly blurred in an unnecessary area.
- Shadow Judgment Level: You can adjust how well the linear algorithm is judged as a hidden state when it is used. (0~5)
Map Editor†
- Added the function to sort entries in the Placed List palette.
Sorting can be done from the context menu (select an entry and right-click).
Test Play†
- The Cast Parameter Check View now also displays the effect values of the "Charge" and "Defense" commands.
Specification Changes†
Resources†
- When importing a file from the Image menu, the initial value of the "Wrap" (U/V/W) property has been changed to "Clamp".
Bug Fixes†
Events†
- Fixed a bug in the "Check Variable Box" panel setting where decimals could not be entered.
- Fixed a bug where "Enhanceable" items were not detected when "Include Equipped Items" was enabled in the "Check Items Possessed" panel.
- Fixed a bug where HP/MP changed by an event after the result was complete would not be applied when returning to the map screen.
- Fixed a bug where the content displayed in the "Display Message" and "Display Conversation" panels would overflow beyond the message window if the width was exactly one character wider than the message window.
- Fixed a bug where, in an event where a rotation angle other than the Y-axis was set, the coordinates gradually shifted when transitioning between sheets.
- Fixed a bug where collision detection would pass through between an ally cast with "Collide with Other Events" enabled in the cast event and a map event with "Collide with Player" disabled.
- Fixed a bug where switching to a different map several times in a row would temporarily distort the screen depending on the window size.
- Fixed a bug in the "Recover/Reduce Battle Cast Consumption Status" panel where the formula type would not work if a variable was specified as the nth.
- Fixed an issue where, when using the "Make Player/Event Walk to Specified Coordinates" panel in an event with "Falling by Gravity" off, the player/events would snap to the ground height.
- Fixed a bug that caused Collision Detection with events to be lost when walking events from multiple parallel sheets simultaneously using the "Make Player/Event Walk" panel with "Pass Through Events" turned on.
- Fixed a bug where even if you allowed the player to walk through non-traversable terrain using the "Change Player/Event Traversable Terrain" panel, the player would sometimes stop walking on non-traversable terrain when using the "Make Player/Event Walk" panel.
Map Editor†
- Fixed a bug in the Placed List palette where sorting entries added to the tree by copy and paste did not save the rearranged results.
- Fixed a bug where the destination location was not displayed in the Placed List palette for events where both the moving source and destination were set on the same map.
- Fixed a bug where after creating an event with a move, deleting the event that was the moving source would leave the destination information in the Placed List palette tree.
The destination information was deleted internally but could not be deleted from the tree until the map was reloaded.
Game Definition†
- Fixed a bug that caused gamepad input to become unresponsive in the Key/Button Assignments screen on the gamepad that opens from Move & Operate > Key/Button Assignments.
Resources†
- Unused files and folders are deleted from the project folder when particles are deleted from the Resources menu.
- Fixed a bug where model changes etc. were not immediately applied to the preview if the efk file was modified and the Update Information button in Resources > Particles was pressed.
- Fixed a bug that caused animations to be displayed incorrectly in the preview of the Slice Animation menu when the "Slice" property of the texture was set to "PixelSlice".
- Fixed a bug in the Asset Picker preview where resources from any DLC in the project being edited were not displayed correctly.
- Fixed a bug where the value set in Asset Picker Options > Scale was not applied to the added model when adding a model file using 3D Stamps/Motions/Blendshapes/Physics Settings.
- When creating a physics setting from a model that was changed in scale on import, the initial size value is now set to "scale on import".
- Moved the particle's "Playtime" property to "For Battle Effects" and changed the tooltip.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the cast from blinking when selecting a target during battle if the "Lighting" property was turned off for the 2D stamp used for the cast.
Database†
- Fixed a bug where using the "Tag" for the "State" ability "State Granting (When Removed)" would cause the removal condition to not work properly.
- Fixed a bug where the state with the "Force Granting Below a Certain Value" ability set to "HP 0%" could not be recovered when an item was used on the map.
- Fixed a bug in the processing of the lower limit set for the "Auto Damage" state ability.
- If there is a "State" with the removal condition set as "When Battle Ends" and state ability set as "State Granting (When Removed)", then a cast member is under this state condition, the “state” set in “State Granting (When Removed)” is not granted to them when a battle is over.
- Previous Specification:
Paralysis is removed at the end of the battle.
If "Paralysis" is set to "ability to grant 'Sleep' when removed", then if the battle ends with "Paralysis" still applied, the "Sleep" state is granted and a transition to the map screen is made.
- Improved Specification:
This change will prevent sleep from being granted at the end of a battle.
Internal Format†
- Fixed a bug that prevented the generation of internal format files in some cases.
- When importing from DLC using the Asset Picker
- When importing by drag & drop into the Map Editor
- When copying and pasting on the Resources & Database
- When importing from an entry that specifies a graphic in the Database
- When importing layout data
- Improved internal model format for more efficient memory usage.
(!)Please note that if you are using the internal format, it will take some time to reconvert the game file when you open it in this version.
Layout Tool†
- Fixed a bug that caused layout elements to be misaligned when using the alignment feature for submenu containers.
- Fixed a bug that prevented some operations, such as selecting text panel contents, from being recorded as undo targets.
- Fixed a bug where, when copying and pasting elements in a container in the layout parts tree, the display order of the parts did not match the tree order until the layout was reopened.
- Fixed a bug in the "Store - Sale" screen where an empty element was left at the end of the list.
- Fixed a bug where event graphic changes were not applied when using the \partyimage format in battle layouts.
- Fixed a bug in the submenu container property " Submenu Container to Select When Pressing (a directional key)," where, when a specific cursor destination is explicitly set, if the destination is empty and corresponds to the target position on the page (such as the last row or column of a list), the page break is now handled correctly.
Battles†
- Fixed a bug in which during a normal attack in battle, if the attack motion had not yet completed playing at the timing set in the “Damage Display Timing” property of Resources > Particles, the damage value would not be displayed until the motion was complete.
- Fixed a bug in which the default display state of subgraphics set in the Resources menu was not applied during battles.
Sprite Tool†
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when deleting a layer name while renaming and then adding a layer.

Other minor UI and text changes were made.
1.13.0.3†
Bug Fixes†
Events†
- Fixed a bug where the collision size did not change when moving between event sheets with "Custom Collide Range" enabled.
Resources†
- Fixed a bug where the height generated by RigidBody was incorrect in cases where the height was narrower than the width in capsule collision (automatically corrected to a sphere shape).
- Fixed a bug that caused an error when importing a VRM model that had a SpringBone definition but no ColliderGroups definition.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the preview of the resource “Movie” from being displayed only in the Traditional Chinese version.
Camera Tool†
- Fixed a bug that prevented editing the camera when deleting a referenced map with "Use Other Camera" in the Camera tool.
As of Ver. 1.13.0.2, the bug where the basic settings of the camera properties were not displayed in some cases has also been fixed.
Layout Tool†
- The description of the special format currentskillconsumptionsp[x][y] was incorrect and has been corrected.
Map Editor†
- Fixed a bug that caused the model to appear to repeatedly zoom in and out on the Map Editor when a VRM 1.0-based model was placed on a map and the scale was changed.
Gameplay Issues†
- Fixed a bug that could cause some cast members during Party Train to momentarily bury themselves in the terrain while walking.

Bug Fixes†
Events†
- Fixed a bug in the "Obtain Battle Information" panel that caused an exception when specifying cast/monster status as the obtain target.
Resources†
- The Y coordinate of the capsule collision, which is automatically generated when importing VRM, is now slightly raised.
(!) When VRM-based 3D stamps imported in versions up to Ver. 1.13.0.1 are used as event graphics, if the "Make Event Walk" stops the movement immediately, try adjusting the Y coordinate of the collision in the same way.
- In the Resources section, the "Update File" button has been modified to allow VRM files to be specified in the dialog box when the import source is re-specified.
Ver.1.13.0.1†
New and Improved Features†
Resources†
- Automatically set collision on VRM import to "capsule" shape.
Bug Fixes†
Resources†
- Fixed a bug that caused multiple VRM format models imported from the same folder to be shared if there were textures with the same name.
Events†
- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused translucent areas to be rendered incorrectly when using a model with Toon (VRM) shaders for a conversation scene.
(!)The following bug fixes have been cancelled in rev. 66871 due to problems identified.
- Fixed a bug that caused the loss of collision detection with an event when walking the player from multiple parallel sheets at the same time and with “Pass Through Events” turned on.
Common Event Editor†
- Fixed a bug that caused slow processing when trying to change the event name in the “Event Name” field in the Event Editor.
The problem of grayed out event names will be fixed in the future.

Ver.1.13.0†
New and Improved Features†
Battle-related Features†
Additional Abilities when Equipped†
- [Database]
- The following options have been added to "Item" abilities > "Weapon/Armor".
- "Ability When Equipped: Skills" ability that allows the cast to use certain skills while equipped.
- "Ability When Equipped: States" ability to grant specific states to the cast while equipped.
Usage of "Tags" to Set the Effect Target Range†
- [Database]
- Added the ability to specify "tags" in the "Items", "Skills", and "State Definition" menus to target a "state/attribute".
Example: In the State Definition, add the tag "#KO" for "states" that cause inability to act, such as "Sleep", "Paralysis", and so on.
Then, by creating a skill with the "State Recovery (Tag)" ability set to "#KO", you can create a skill that can recover from multiple states at once.
Skill Reflection†
- [Database]
- "Reflection Rate", which allows skills to reflect, has been implemented in the "State Definition" ability > "Battles".
- If more than one cast successfully reflects, each will execute the reflected skill against the attacker.
- The destination of the reflection can be randomly selected from the attacker cast or from the attacker's group.
- Reflective/non-reflective skills can be specified by tags.
Example: If you do not want to reflect only skills with only Effect on Allies set and with #tagA, you can state as follows (#allycast is a system tag for “Effect on Allies only” skills):
-#allycast -#tagA
- In Casts > Battle tab > Treat as Enemy in Encounters, if the enemy AI is set to “Intelligent” or “Cunning” and the following conditions are met, the skill use will be abandoned, or the skill target will be changed.
- Skill target is all of them and someone is in [Reflection] state.
- Skill target is a single person, but everyone is in [Reflection] state.
- When the skill target is a single person, if someone is in [Reflection] state, he/she is not a candidate for the target.
- [Game Definition]
- Added a field in "System Resources" to set the effect of a successful reflection.
If the reflection is successful, the specified effect is displayed in front of the receiving side of the attack.
The sample game "Orb Stories", which is pre-installed in the "Basic Set" project, is set up with the reflection effect.
If you want to use it, go to Resources > Particles, click the Add button, go to the "Ready to Use" tab, select "Basic Set" and import sb_ef_battle076_Reflection into your project.
- “Display Reflected Effects” has been added to “Rules and Rendering" > Battle Related.
Turning this switch off shortens the time of the battle performance by omitting the effect that is displayed against the attacker after the skill reflection.
Critical Hit†
- [Database]
- The following options have been added to the "Items" ability - "Weapon/Armor" and the "State Definition" ability - "Battle".
- Added "Critical Damage Rate (%)" which adds the critical damage rate of normal attacks.
- Added "Critical Evasion Rate (%)", which adds the probability of avoiding a critical attack from an opponent when becoming the target of an attack.
- "Critical Effect" has been added to the "Weapon/Armor" ability under "Items".
You can set the effect that is displayed when a critical hit is made.
- A “Bare Handed Critical Effect” has been added to the “Casts” > “Effects” tab to allow the user to set the effect when a critical hit occurs with a bare hand attack.
- [Game Definition]
- “Critical Damage Rate” has been added to Rules and Rendering > Status Related.
- [Events]
- When using the "At the Beginning of Action" trigger for battle events, the "Obtain Battle Information" panel can now be used to obtain hit determination information (misses, hits, criticals).
Probability of Escaping†
- [Game Definition]
- Added an option to edit the ""Escape" Command Success Rate" under "Rules and Rendering" > Battle Related.
Formula Related†
- [Database and Others]
- Added "Formula List Dialog" to manage multiple formulas and set "tags" for each formula.
In the tool, where formulas are available, you can use "tags" to specify which formulas to use. (You can also enter formulas directly as before.)
- Improved Formula Editor UI.
- Parameters and functions that can be used in formulas have been added to the Formula Editor.
- “Clamp” added to “Opcodes” is a function to keep a value within a specified minimum to maximum value.
Example: The parameter “a” represents the value to be kept within min,max, clamp(5, 1, 2) and clamp(0, 2, 4) are both 2.
When clamp(a,5,10), a is output if 5<a<10, otherwise 5 or 10.
- The “Active Casts” added to “Others” refers to the number of cast members who are not under the influence of more than 1 HP or the “Unable to Act (In Battles)” state ability. (e.g., a cast that is not in a "paralyzed" state)
Battle Events†
- [Events]
- The following information is now available from the "Obtain Battle Information" panel.
- "Management Tag" for the selected battle command
- The "Management Tag" set for the "Action Type" that the enemy cast currently in action is trying to execute
- The result of the hit determination at the beginning of the action.
Information on misses, hits, and criticals can be obtained.
Note that if the results are manipulated by events after the action has started, the results will be different from those obtained.
- The target type of the immediately preceding skill.
For example, you can see if the selected skill targets a single enemy or the entire enemy.
- Skill (item) tags used
- Number of surviving cast members randomly from allied/enemy groups
- Resistance value of the cast to attributes and states
- The following features have been added to the "Specify Battle Cast Action" panel.
- Added the "Change Target Only" feature to the "Action" field.
- Add "Action Timing" field to allow for immediate action (interrupting the next action) and the option to override this turn's action.
- "At the End of Result" has been implemented as an execution condition for battle events.
The triggering condition will be triggered after the results screen closes and before the fade out begins if the battle is won.
- "When Result Ends" has been implemented in the "Battle Phase" condition panel for battle events.
Note that "When Result Ends" is also executed when "When Battle Ends" is executed.
Refer to Weapon Setting†
- [Database]
- Added "Refer to Weapon" to the motion and effect settings when using "Skills".
The motion and effects of the weapon used when activating a skill will be displayed.
- In the attribute selection of the skill's ability "Skill Attribute", "Weapon Attribute" can now be selected.
VRM Format Support†
Import of VRM Format Models†
- [Resources]
- VRM format models can now be used as 3D models.
Upon import, the most appropriate materials are automatically assigned, and basic motion is assigned from Bakin's pre-prepared motion files.
In addition, a file converted to FBX format is generated in the same folder when VRM is imported.
By using the model converted to FBX for services such as Mixamo, it is possible to add motions to the model other than those pre-installed in Bakin.
(!)However, in some cases, depending on the model shape, importing into Mixamo may not be possible. It is assumed that some models, especially those wearing long coats, skirts, or other costumes with bones in them, may not be able to be imported by Mixamo. For this reason, it is better to use the model pre-installed in Bakin and add motions with it.
Please see the 3D Characters > .vrm Format Models section.
(!)In some cases, VRM format models use large texture sizes, which may affect the operation of the tool or game. (It takes time to load, etc., and the operation becomes slow.)
Please consider using the "Internal Format Settings" feature found in Game Definition > Project Settings > Game Engine Settings section.
- In Resources > Models, added "Movement Limit of Swinging Objects" UI to properties only when a VRM-formatted model is selected.
When running or changing direction during a game, you can limit the behavior of the swinging objects set in the VRM to prevent them from getting out of control.
Other Features and Improvements†
Game Definition†
- The "Rules and Operations" screen has been split into the "Rules and Rendering" screen and the "Move & Operate" screen.
- The UI of the "Common Terms" screen has been changed.
- In the "Common Terms" section, the arrow symbol used to indicate status changes set in the Layout Tool can now be changed to any string.
[Tool UI]†
- Improved the tooltip of the variable selection box at various places in the tool to check variable names.

- Fixed a bug in the "Dungeon RPG Sample" that caused inexplicable rotation when the Up key and Left/Right keys were pressed simultaneously.
(!)The "Grid Move" in the Common Event Template has been modified accordingly.
- In Orb Stories, the battle AI of the Sword Keeper was modified, the hit effect of the Spirit Sword was changed (a critical hit effect was added), and the initial amount of money possessed was changed.
Ver.1.12.1.2†
Bug Fixes†
Internal Format Conversion†
- Fixed a bug that caused internal format files to be created when opening textures in Resources, even if the internal format conversion function was not used.
- Fixed a bug in which model changes were not reflected in the preview of resource editing when model data was reimported in the “Resources” menu when using the internal format conversion function.

Ver. 1.12.1†
New and Improved Features†
Conversion Feature to Internal Format of Resources†
- The “Use Internal Format (beta)” feature has been implemented in Game Definition > Project Settings.
The default setting for this feature is “off”.
(!) This feature is in beta. It is recommended to save the project as an alias before turning it on.
When turned on, the model and textures are converted to a Bakin-optimized format (internal format) and saved in the project as a separate file from the original.
The converted files will be placed in the library folder directly under the project folder.
- This feature has the following advantages and disadvantages:
[Advantages]
- Speeds up the loading process during games.
- The memory used by the game is reduced.
- When exporting as a published work, game size is reduced by exporting only files that have been converted to the internal format.
[Disadvantages]
- Depending on your environment and the number of resources to be converted, the conversion may take a considerable amount of time.
- The size of the project folder will increase as it will now contain files converted to internal format.
- In addition, when this feature is turned on, the following actions are performed:
- Adding resources to the project with this feature turned on will automatically convert them to the internal format.
- When this feature is turned on, a backup of the project is automatically created.
- In addition, the properties of the resources to be converted can be changed at once when this feature is turned on.
If you wish to restore the properties that were changed in this dialog to their original settings, please use a backup file of your project or set them manually.
- [Turn Off “Vertex Compression” on the Model for Collision]
[Advantages]
When “Vertex Compression” is turned on and an internal format model is used for the mesh collider, the accuracy of the vertex coordinates will be reduced and there may be subtle differences in the collision detection.
By turning this one off, you can avoid its effects.
[Disadvantages]
If the same model is also used for display, the reduction in memory consumption due to vertex compression is not achieved.
- [Turn On “Texture Compression” for All Textures]
[Advantages]
Compressing textures can reduce memory consumption.
However, the following types of textures, which have a significant impact on image quality degradation, are excluded.
Textures for which the interpolation method is Nearest (e.g., for slice animation)
Textures for LUT
[Disadvantages]
The image quality will be slightly degraded.
- [Optimize Texture Usage Settings]
Normal maps have dedicated texture compression, so if there are any textures assigned to normal maps whose usage is not properly set to “Normal,” change the setting.
- [Backup the Entire Game File]
Create a backup folder for the entire game file (project folder) with the folder name [ProjectFolderName_bak1].
- Once this feature is turned on, turning it off will remove the Library folder from the project folder and use the resources before internal format conversion.
Note, however, that “Resources” menu properties changed in the internal format conversion dialog will not be automatically restored.
Game Definition†
- In the system graphic, icons indicating the equipment types can now be specified.
Events†
- The text command \c has been added to panels that can display text, such as the “Display Conversation” panel, with the ability to restore the text color.

Map Editor†
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when executing “Copy Battle-Related Scripts to Game File (Default Battle)” in the Map Editor upper menu after Ver. 1.12.
Others†
- Fixed a bug in which when a game with a different aspect ratio between the monitor and the game screen was executed in full screen (with black area on the screen), the value of the cursor coordinate position was obtained with the black area added to the value of the cursor.
This is in response to a problem that occurs when running a 16:9 game in full screen on a monitor wider than 16:9, or when the Run-Time Resolution is set to “Portrait Ratio” in the Game Definition > Project Settings.
Ver. 1.12.0.2†
Bug Fixes†

Ver. 1.12.0†
New and Improved Features†
Backlogs†
- Layout Tool
- A new “Backlog” screen has been added to the Layout Tool.
- Added “Show Backlogs” to the submenu container actions.
The in-game backlog can be displayed by placing a submenu container in the menu with a “Show Backlogs” action and specifying that the layout of the backlog screen should be opened.
- Events
- Added “Add Strings to Backlogs” panel to the “Conversations” category.
Texts set in this panel are not displayed during the game and are only recorded in the backlogs.
For example, it is intended to be used to include a separator such as “End of Chapter 1” or to insert selection results or text input results into the backlog using a string variable.
- The following control characters have been added to the “Display Conversation” and “Display Message” panels.
- Record/End in Backlog Only: \-
- Show/End Only in Main Text: \+
- Game Definition
- New “Max Number of Backlogs Retained” in Rules & Operations > Game System Definition.
Change Game Speed / Skip Events†
- Events
- A “Change Game Speed” panel has been added to the “Controls” category.
This panel allows you to change the time elapsing speed of the game engine while on maps.
The game speed is restored when user input is required to choose a selection, when a battle occurs, or when an event switch is used to turn off event skipping.
(!) Excessively high game speeds may cause frame skipping and other rendering problems.
The speed limit will vary depending on factors such as the specs of your PC and the map layout. If you want to speed up the process without hiding the screen, such as a fade-out effect, please play and check before making the appropriate settings.
- Display priority can now be specified in the “Display Image” panel.
As with the “Play Movie” panel, we have added a low, medium, and high setting.
Previously, images could not be displayed in front of the fade in/out process, but with the addition of this feature, they can now be displayed at the very front of the screen.
- Common Event Templates
- Added “Skip Events” as a template for common events.
Pressing the menu button will cause the game screen to fade out, followed by a fast game progression.
This event template uses the “Change Game Speed” panel and the “Display Image” panel.
If you wish to change the key for activation or the effect of skipping, etc., please convert this template to a custom event and modify it accordingly.
(!) In this event, the screen will remain dark unless the “End Event Skipping” switch is turned on in the event, unless there is an area in the event that requires user input, such as “choosing a selection”.
(!)At this time, this event automatically disables event skipping only when choosing a selection or entering a string.
If you want to explicitly disable event skipping in event battles or at other points, turn on the End Event Skipping switch.
(!)If you wish to continue displaying conversations and other content within the same event after event skipping is disabled, be sure to insert 0 Wait (“0” for the time specified using the “Wait Specified Time” panel) after the End Event Skipping switch.
This is a necessary action to wait for the Common Event side to process a skip stop.
Message Skipping†
- Game Definition
- New “Use Message Skip” in Rules and Operations > Operation.
When this flag is turned on, messages and conversations in the middle of display can be displayed at once up to the state of waiting for input by pressing the Decide/Cancel key.
- Events
- The control character “\s” has been added to the “Display Conversation” and “Display Message” panels to disable message skipping.
Movie Playback During Battles†
- Events
- Movies can now be played in battle events using the “Play Movie” panel.
Events†
- In the “Increase/Decrease Item” panel, the Nth item in the inventory bag can be specified.
- A function to specify the attack attribute and “a setting for not disappearing even if HP reaches zero” have been added to the “Recover/Reduce Battle Cast's HP/MP” panel.
- The “Text Command Input Assistance Dialog,” which opens from the “Input Support” button on panels where message text is entered, such as the “Display Conversation” panel, has been improved so that control characters are now categorized using tabs.
Layout Tool†
- The “Variable to Assign a Selection Result” and “Variables to Assign a Selection” functions have been extended to be available for all layouts in the Layout Properties.
- "Start the Index from 1" has been added to the Layout Properties of the “Menu”, “Free Layout for Event”, and “Enhancement Item Selection” screens.
Previously, the index of the selection was set to 0 origin in the Free Layout for Event and menus, and to 1 origin in the layout of the Enhancement Item Selection screen, but now it can be selected arbitrarily.
Database†
- Added an entry field for Management Tags in “Battle Action AI” under Casts > Battles.
This allows us to use the “State” ability “Disable Command” to disable the enemy's actions.
(!) Even if you do not enter any tags in the Management Tags field, the system automatically assigns tags to the actions that can be specified using the “Action Type”.
- Changed the category of item/skill/state abilities and ability names, etc.
Game Definition†
- A new option “Count Y Movements as Steps” has been added to the Rules and Operations> Battle Related section.
This allows choosing whether to consider the height movement in counting the number of steps used to determine encounters with enemies.
Resources†
- The “3D Stamps” have been improved so that subgraphics are displayed in a list format.
This also allows the properties of selected entries to be edited together.
We will support the reordering of subgraphics by dragging in the future.
- For “3D Stamps,” the initial display state setting for subgraphics can now be configured.
Map Editor†
- Improved the maximum map number limit, allowing map numbers to be freely assigned if they do not conflict with other maps.
Plugins†
- Added BattleStart method to MapScene class to generate battles from C#.
You can specify the monsters that appear by passing the GUID of Yukar.Common.Rom.Cast as a list.
Tool UI†
- The overall color brightness of the Bakin tool has been adjusted toward less brightness.
The coloring of the tool will be adjusted on an ongoing basis.
Reminder Regarding the Update†
- Note on APIs available in C# scripts
- Removed invalid Rectangle argument that previously existed for compatibility purposes for “DrawImage, DrawString” in “Yukar.Engine.Graphics”.
(!)If you have been using these, please replace the “new Rectangle(~)” with false.

- Fixed a bug where a 3D stamp that used a different material than the assigned model would be assigned the original model's material when pasted into another project.
- Fixed a bug that prevented collisions from being updated when adding (overwriting) stamps already in a project from the DLC, unless the project was reopened.
- Fixed a bug in which, when changing some parameters of a stamp subgraphic placed on a map in the Resources menu, the values were not restored correctly after canceling the Resources menu.
- Fixed a bug where decals added to Resources were not being removed after canceling the Resources menu.
- Fixed a bug that could cause an exception when executing the context menu “Rename File by Resource Name” in the tree of each entry.
- Fixed a bug in which when selecting blendshapes with the Asset Picker, the clip selection location was “colored to indicate that it cannot be selected”.
Gameplay Issues†
- Fixed a bug that caused animations of sprites displayed in conversations to play at double speed after Ver. 1.11.
- Fixed a bug that caused the “HP” value to decrease when the “Maximum HP” value was changed by the “State” ability, etc., when it was restored to its original value.

Ver. 1.11.0.5†
Bug Fixes†
Issues During Test Play†
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception at the start of test play if a deleted cast was included in the saved data since Ver. 1.11.
- Fixed a bug in the test play window in which repeatedly hitting the close button could close the window without waiting for the data pre-loading to complete, resulting in unstable operation of the tool afterwards.
Ver. 1.11.0.4†
Bug Fixes†
Layout Tool†
- Fixed a bug that caused the “Line Spacing Offset” in layout to be ignored from the second page onward when a message runs over multiple lines.
Resources†
- Fixed a bug that caused thumbnails to not display correctly when adding DLC assets containing particles.
Others†
- Fixed a bug that caused some files to not be exported properly in rare cases when exporting to the published file.
Ver. 1.11.0.3†
Bug Fixes†
Events†
- Fixed a bug in which the “Brighten/Darken Screen” panel would not remove the operation prohibition when executed immediately after game over.
- Fixed a bug that prevented lip-synch of sprites in conversation from working after Ver. 1.11.
Event Templates†

Ver. 1.11.0.2†
Bug Fixes†
Events†
- Fixed a bug that caused an exception during a conversation event when a motion with a given name could not be found in the sprite set assigned as the animation for the entering and exiting of the cast's portrait during the conversation event.
(!)This problem occurred when the “Motion Name” in the sprite set assigned to Game Definition > System Resources > Conversation Cast Display Effect was changed.
Since the “Motion Name” determines which animation is displayed, it is recommended not to change the motion name from the default sprite set “DialogueAnimation” to another name.
- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused unintended lighting effects to be applied to conversation cast displays using 3D models since Ver. 1.11.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the “Change Cast's Equipment” panel from working even if “None (unequipped)” was specified in the “Item to be Equipped” field after Ver. 1.11.

Bug Fixes†
Events†
- Fixed a bug that prevented specifying speech bubbles targeting other events in the “Display Conversation” panel / “Display Message” panel after Ver. 1.11.
Ver. 1.11†
New and Improved Features†
Auto Save†
- An auto save function has been implemented.
Also, it is now possible to save and load from an event to an assigned save data slot.
- By turning on Game Definition > Rules and Operations > Auto Save, the game will automatically save to a special auto save slot when moving between maps.
- The top slot on the save data selection screen will be changed to an auto save slot, which can be loaded but not saved at will. The auto save slot is automatically overwritten when moving between maps.
- In the Layout Tool > Save File Selection screen, the save data display name of the panel at the top of the Layout Parts tree will automatically change to "Auto Save" if the panel is assigned the special format \savename.
- If you wish to display an indication such as "Saving" when executing an auto save, use the Free Layout for Event to do so.
- The event panels "Forced Save" and "Forced Load" have been added to the command selector "Controls" category of the Event Editor.
- The "Forced Save" panel is a function that forcibly overwrites the save data of an assigned slot.
- The "Forced Load" panel forces the loading of saved data in the assigned slot. If there is no saved data in the assigned slot, it will be ignored.
- You can also assign a slot for auto save as a save/load slot.
- Even if auto save is turned off in "Game Definition", save and load can be performed on the auto save slot target. This allows the "auto save slot" to be used as a "special save slot that does not appear in the save data list".
-- An event panel “Enable/Disable Auto Save” has been added to the command selector “Switches” category in the Event Editor.
We expect you to use it to create "games that only have auto save" in the following ways.
1. Delete the "Save" option from the menu.
2. At the beginning of the game, "Forced Load" is always performed for the auto save slot. By doing these two things, the game can be restarted from auto save if data is available, or a new game can be played if not.
Conversation Cast Enter and Exit Animation†
The "Conversation" event can now be customized by using the Sprite Tool for the cast members entering and exiting the event.
- Added "Conversation Cast Display Effect" to "Screen Transition Effects" in Game Definition > System Resources.
Assign the sprite set you wish to use for the Enter and Exit animation to this field.
The sprite set for Enter and Exit is created with the Sprite Tool.
Referring to the default sprite set "DialogueAnimation," create a motion that assigns the left and right cast movements.
Example: Motion "LeftCharacterIn_Active" is the motion when the left cast member (Cast 1) enters the screen in a speaking state at the beginning of a conversation.
- In the previous version, when a billboard was assigned as a conversation cast graphic, it did not animate when entering and exiting the scene; however, this has been corrected so that it now enters and exits the scene with animation, just like regular portraits.
Display the Portrait in Front of the Conversation Window†
The relationship between the rendering orders of windows and portraits, which was previously fixed in the conversation screen, can now be changed.
- A new "Reflect the Rendering Order of the Cast Displayed" has been added to the Layout Tool > Conversation Screen Layout Properties.
When this option is turned on, the rendering order will change according to the order of the layout parts list, just as in the layout of other screens. (Parts at the bottom of the list are rendered in the foreground.)
Change the position on the layout parts list of the "panel that assigns the special format \dialoguecharacterleft or \dialoguecharacterright″ accordingly.
User-defined Icons†
Allows registered icons to be displayed in conversations and message text.
- "User-defined Icons" can now be registered in Game Definition > System Resources.
- Added \i[X,Y] for displaying User-defined Icons to Text Commands in the "Display Conversation" and "Display Message" event panels.
When you register an image with "Count Slice" in Resources > Images > Slice in System Resources, you can assign which frames in the image will be displayed as icons.
Icons are automatically resized to the size of the immediately preceding font size.
Database†
- In the "State Abilities" section of the State Definition > State Change Effects tab, the "State Change (When Granted)", "State Recovery (When Granted)", "State Change (When Removed)", "Raise in Resistance (Attribute)" and "Raise in Resistance (State)" categories have been added.
We also added the "Disable Command" ability to the "Abnormal Action" category.
- State Change (When Granted)
Assigns an additional state to the opponent.
- If "Not Granted" is assigned, the specified "state" is granted to the target cast when it is not in that state.
For example, if the effect of the "Poison" state is assigned as [State Change (When Granted) - Not Granted - "Sleep"], when a cast member who is not in the "Poison" state is put into the "Poison" state by an event, "Sleep" will be granted along with the "Poison" state.
- If "Granted" is assigned, then the specified "state" will be added to the cast when the target cast is in the "state".
For example, if the "poison" ability is assigned as [State Change (When Granted) - Granted - "Deadly Poison"], then when a cast in the "poison" state is poisoned by an event, "Deadly Poison" will also be added to the cast.
(!) If the cast is not "poisoned" in the above example, this ability is disabled.
(!) This ability will not work unless the Multiplexing setting under "State" is specified as something other than "Disable Multiplexing".
(!) It is recommended to specify the ability to remove the "poison" state along with this ability.
- State Change (When Removed)
When this "state" is removed, the assigned "state" is granted to the opponent.
However, if the "state" is disabled by the "State Disabling" ability, this ability will not work.
- If "Always" is specified, the specified "state" is assigned when this "state" is removed except for "State Disabling".
- If "At Removal Condition" is assigned, the specified "state" is assigned when this "state" is removed by "Removal Condition".
- If "At State Recovery" is assigned, the "state" is assigned when the "state" is recovered by a skill or state, which means when the "state" is removed except by a "Removal Condition".
- Abnormal Action Category > Disable Command
Assigning a "tag" to a battle command disables the ability to select that command from the battle command menu.
Assign a default tag such as "Attack" or "Skill" or a tag specified in the "Battle Command Menu" under Database > Casts > Battles.
(!)This ability “disables command selection”. Therefore, a monster's “action by battle action AI” cannot be disabled. Note that it is not possible currently to seal a monster's skills during battles, for example.
- A new option has been added to the “Change in Appearance When Applied” section of the “Influence of State Change” tab that allows the user to assign a color and translucent/opaque state when the “state” is reached in battles or on maps.
- Damage values specified in State Definition > State Abilities “Auto Damage Ability” can now be displayed on maps as well.
When damage is caused by this ability on maps, the damage value can be displayed for each damage that occurs.
(!)To use this feature, turn on “Display Damage during Map Battles” under Game Definition > Rules and Operations > Map Battles.
- Added enable/disable switches for items/skills/state abilities.
Please use this feature when you want to temporarily disable them for debugging or other purposes.
- The "target" of an item, skill, or ability of State Definition can now be changed using a combo box.
- The State Definition "Auto Damage" ability now has a new feature that opens an Advanced Edit dialog that allows the user to edit the specified values for all this ability.
- Assigned a lower limit when reducing the consumption value to the State Definition "Auto Damage" ability.
- In the "State Abilities" section, specify "Auto Damage," and in the far-right field you will see an option called "Edit." Click there to open the dialog.
- For example, if "1" is set in the "Lower Limit", the status will never fall below "1" even if it continues to be affected by abilities such as "Poison".
- Changed the order and option name of "Removal Condition" in the State Definition.
- The UI of the Casts > Basic tab "Resistance to State" and the Equipment and Skills tab "Skills to be Learned" has been improved to "additional type".
- Changed the "Auto Damage (On Maps: HP)" ability so that the game is over when the HP of all party members reaches 0.

- Fixed a bug where the HP did not change when the player was on [terrain assigned a "state" that assigns 0% HP using the State Definition > "Force Granting Below a Certain Value" ability].
And we modified the system so that when the HP of all the party members reaches 0 in this case, the game is over.
- Fixed a bug that caused the game to be over when the State Definition > State ability "Force Granting Below a Certain Value" assigns 0% consumption values other than HP to a cast by an event or the player was on terrain assigned a "state".
- Fixed a bug that caused a minus sign attached to the damage value displayed during the game when a negative value was specified as the damage value for the “Auto Damage Ability” under State Definition > State Abilities.

- Fixed a bug in which the target selection process did not function properly when the target of the next skill used was "Except Oneself" when using a "skill that closes the layout of the "Skill Target Selection" screen after activating the skill".
Others†
- Fixed a bug that prevented launching of published games in paths containing Japanese characters in non-Japanese environments after Ver. 1.10.
Ver. 1.10.1.2†
Bug Fixes†
Events†
- Fixed a bug that could cause an exception when using the "Make Event Walk" panel on a common event.

- When a skill is used on the map, the target of the rate recovery and the status consumed by the skill are the same, (e.g., recover 10% MP & consume 10 MP), Fixed a bug in which the "maximum value of the Skill Activator" was used as the basis for rate recovery, instead of the "maximum value of the Skill Target".
Others†
- Fixed a bug in which saved data for cast members who had learned "skills deleted from the Database" were not being loaded properly.
- Fixed a bug in which the facial graphics of some cast members included in "BasicSet" and "Battle Script Sample Project" since Ver. 1.10.0 were replaced with incorrect ones.
(!)In making this correction, we have fixed a problem in which the file name of the image data for cast sprites in the project "BasicSet" and "2D Cast Set" preinstalled in Bakin was incorrect.
This caused the file names of the "for sprite" images of "Fighter A and Fighter B" and "White Magician and Black Magician" to be swapped.
For example: Fighter A will be chr005 to chr006. Fighter B will be chr006 to chr005, and vice versa.
Please be careful when importing the above cast resources into a project created before the current version.
Example; When importing an image of fighter B into a project that has already imported fighter A, the image will be overwritten unless it is imported with a different ID.

(!)For example, "Target Number of Last Used Skill (1~)" is an option that was added this time.
The existing option to obtain a value from (0~ ) has been left as "Deprecated", so there is no need to change the existing event processing.
- In the Event Command Selector, the "Display Effect" panel has been moved from the "Conversation" category to the "Screen Effects" category.
Map Editor†
- Rotate lights and decals can now be rotated using the rotate button on the Tools palette.
