Instructions and notes on updating the game

When using save data from vanilla Elona 1.16 or prior, you will need to:

• Save while your character is in a town, and
• Unassign the shopkeeper in your shop, the breeder in your ranch, and so on.

Internally, the code for updating game saves works exactly the same as it does in vanilla Elona so there's no need to update older versions to vanilla Elona 1.16 first. However, before moving the save file over to the newer game version, do make a backup copy of it somewhere else.

When using a save file from Elona plus 1.18 or prior:

• All gift items have their quality changed to "cheap".
• All bait attached to fishing rods will be changed to "water flea".

due to a change in how item data is handled.

Save data from Elona plus 1.18fix cannot be used in versions 1.18R and later.

When using a save file from Elona plus 1.22 or prior:

• Due to a change in how scrolls of flying work, the stats of all pieces of equipment in the inventories of the player character, pets, and adventurers will be reset. Their weight and equipment attributes stay the same, but other stats will become the highest value possible for the material that they are respectively made of.

Equipment that had ridiculous stats due to a bug in a previous version have to be fixed this way or you will not be able to equip them. Alternatively, change the material of the piece of equipment and that will also fix it.

Save data from Elona plus 1.25 cannot be used in versions 1.25R and later.

Save data from Elona plus 1.38 cannot be used in versions 1.38R and later.

When using a save file from Elona plus 1.40 and 1.40fix, some body parts added onto your character or onto your pets may disappear. Items equipped on those body parts will be unequipped. When starting the game, an item to restore body parts will be placed at your character's feet.

When using a save file from Elona plus 1.40fix2, some body parts added onto your character may disappear. Items equipped on those body parts will be unequipped. When starting the game, an item to restore body parts will be placed at your character's feet.

When using a save file from Elona plus 1.85 or prior, the contents of placed shelters will be reset. As such, a sand bag will be placed at your feet as it's a popular item to have in shelters.

When using a save file from Elona plus 1.88, 1.88R, and prior, constructed shelters will be deconstructed. One toilet will also be placed at your feet.

When using a save file from Elona plus 1.97 or prior, pets who had been marked as precious will no longer be marked as such due to changes to the variable used. Custom item sprites will also have their image height reduced and appear flattened due to a change in the default parameters for sprite dimensions. You will need to reassign both of these after updating the game.

Development versions of this game are for finding bugs. Versions that are fixes will fix bugs found in development versions before that, but that doesn't mean they are bug-free.

---

Recommended method for updating the game:

• The same as in vanilla Elona.
• Copy the save_CHARACTER folder from the /save folder into the /save folder of the new version.
• Play the new version of Elona plus.
• Any other custom files (e.g. character portraits) should be moved individually, not by copying their containing folder.
• You may want to have these custom files in a separate folder outside the game directory for ease of copying.

Not recommended:

• Copying all files and folders from the new version into the older version.
• Copying folders containing custom files and dropping them into the directory containing the new version.
• These may cause your game folder to have unnecessary files and other issues, so the game may not work if you do this.

1.98

4/06/2020

[Changes and additions]

• Changed some Act II main quest cutscenes.
  • Fleshed out some details, added some foreshadowing, slightly changed how events unfold, added some characters to them, and so on.

• Added 4 means of transportation for travelling on the world map.
  • Added deeds for each of these.

• 2 more conversation options for pets.
  • The pet's reaction to one of them can be customized with txtMizuAsobi.

• Renamed the "maintenance" item in the tax breakdown to "running costs" [in the Japanese version] as the latter has a broader definition.

• Changed the icons of some warning messages to ones that stand out more so that fewer people overlook the messages.

[Fixes]

• Fixed the issue with the options displayed when the Riding special action is used.

• Making a pet wait in town while it is currently being ridden will now cause your player character to properly dismount from it.

• Fixed all evolved pets sometimes using Dancing Wire on the lower level eye race targets.
  • Also fixed the new evolution added in 1.97 not using Dancing Wire like she is supposed to.
  • These issues arose because the ID of the target was used instead of the user.

• Fixed the item marks set for characters on the right side of a tag team being off by 3 pixels to the side.

• Fixed one of the new ether disease symptoms decreasing Charisma instead of increasing it (the code was copied from the "your neck becomes extremely thick" symptom).

1.98: detailed changelog

[New conversation options]

• I tell you my feelings.
  • Only shows up for pet NPCs.
  • Using it once for a pet will prevent it from showing up again for that particular pet. (It won't disappear if you cancel.)
  • It will show up again after sleeping.
  • Further options will show up after selecting it.
  • To prevent this from getting stale, there are 3 different flavour texts that can display depending on the day.
  • The top-most option will basically cancel it.
  • The 2nd to 4th will increase Impress by a slight amount if Impress is at Fellow or greater. The pet's reaction will change [in the Japanese version] depending on its style of speech. If the required level of Impress is not reached, these options will decrease it by a slight amount.
  • The 5th to 7th options will increase Impress by a slight amount.
  • The 8th to 10th will have a chance to cause confusion if Impress is at Fellow or greater. No other drawbacks.
  • These are for roleplaying getting closer to your pets through daily conversation and not just by showering them with gifts, and for depicting your character's personality and attitude towards others. (This is why there are several options that have the same outcomes.) Also for depicting tsunderes in the relationship instead of the standard head-over-heels-for-each-other.

• <<Interest in a little tail t'night>>
  • Usable only in evochat. Reduces the player's Action by 1 when selected.
  • A counter increases or decreases depending on the options picked, and the player's and pet's SP will both decrease by random amounts.
  • When the counter reaches 0, the pet's Happiness will increase by 3.
  • Nothing will happen when cancelling before the counter reaches 0.
  • txtMizuAsobi customizes the pet's response while this is in progress, and txtDialogH customizes the pet's reaction when the counter hits 0.

[Means of transportation on the world map]

• Obtained by reading the deed (spawned randomly) for them. Nothing happens when the deeds are read by a non-player character.
  • Only 1 of these can be owned at a time. Reading the deed for another type will overwrite the existing deed. (So as to prevent the player from swapping between vehicles for whichever fits the current needs.)
  • When you own a vehicle, talking to a deed-selling NPC will bring up the option to get rid of the vehicle and go back to walking.
  • When aboard any of these vehicles, the sprite and travelling sound effect will be changed, and pets you have with you will not be displayed. Dyeing the deed will dye the vehicle's sprite.
  • The time taken to travel on the world map is reduced to 3/5, and you will be able to move [at regular speed] in the wilderness even when the cart is overloaded.

• deed of carriage
  • Maintenance costs 500/month.
  • Cargo limit is increased by 10 as long as you have this vehicle.

• deed of truck
  • Maintenance costs 2000/month.
  • Cargo limit is increased by 20 as long as you have this vehicle.
  • When on a road tile, movement time is multiplied by another 3/5 (bringing effective movement time to 9/25 that of walking on foot).

• deed of magic locomotive
  • Maintenance costs 10,000/month.
  • Cargo limit is increased by 30 as long as you have this vehicle.
  • Speed penalty when the cart is overloaded is halved. Will still not be able to move when overloaded by too much.
  • No movement speed penalty on snow.
  • Reduces player character's MP by a small amount for every tile travelled on the world map. However, will not cause damage or give Magic Capacity experience when MP goes negative.
  • Expensive, so when wishing for this deed a deed of carriage will show up instead.
  • If you have a custom item.bmp, note that it has been updated and now has the sprite for the side view of the carriage.

• deed of land battleship
  • Maintenance costs 200,000/month.
  • Speed penalty when the cart is overloaded is halved. Will still not be able to move when overloaded by too much.
  • Cargo limit is increased by 100 as long as you have this vehicle.
  • Immune to the desert heat. Completely prevents monster and rogue encounters, but does not prevent encounters with assassins, the chestnut giant, and wandering vendors.
  • Also expensive, so wishing for this deed will cause a deed of carriage to show up instead.
  • To illustrate its size, the sprite has been stretched horizontally, doubling its width.

1.97

3/01/2020

When updating to version 1.97, pets who had been marked as precious will no longer be marked as such due to changes to the variable used.

Custom item sprites will also have their image height reduced and appear flattened.

You will need to reassign both of these after updating the game.

[Changes and additions]

• 4 new unique artifacts. Some available for exchange, some randomly spawned.

• Added just the conversation before the last boss battle of Act III.

• 5 new eye race NPCs. 2 new evolutions.

• The "sores on your face" ether disease symptom now has a maximum Charisma penalty of -999 at every disease stage.
  • The "you suffer debilitation" and "you are stupid" symptoms have a maximum penalty of -255 to Strength and Magic respectively.

• Decreased the satiety gain from using Voracity Fang special action to 1/10 of the previous value.
  • When satiety is at Satisfied or above, using this special action will just do a regular physical attack.

• 10 new ether disease symptoms.
  • These are all physical deformities that give some minor advantage and a serious disadvantage, but you may find them useful if they fit your play style or for roleplaying.

• 4 new sleep events. Decreased the probability that the existing negative sleep events will occur.
  • Some of the new sleep events are positive, some depend on your choice or luck, some are a mix of good and bad, and some progress in multiple stages.

• The "Item mark adjust" option now allows you to enlarge the item sprite.
  • Sprite width and height are also independent settings, allowing you to do more things with images. Beyond a certain size, they may start sticking out of their image frame and interfere with the text displayed, but that shouldn't be a serious issue.

• Dominate spell now paralyzes the target when used by an NPC regardless of whether the target is immune to domination or not.

• Changed the sprites of Mournblade and Storm Bringer so that they resemble the weapons they are referencing a lot more.

• Added some English translations.

[Fixes]

• Fixed some descriptions.

• Fixed the ranch animal trait that yields more corpses not working when Anatomy skill is 0.

• Fixed being able to get quest hints even if the player hadn't reached the prerequisite points in the main quest or was without enough gold to pay the informer despite the message displayed.

• Fixed ZinlaiKyaku special action sometimes freezing the game when it is used some distance away from the player.
  • In versions 1.96 and earlier, the freeze can be avoided by setting Effect Speed to 0.

• Fixed being unable to use gauge attacks with 2 recently added unique artifact melee weapons.

• Fixed the baphomet (NB: no English equivalent) evolution's sprite.

• Fixed the tint and English name of Storm Bringer.

• Fixed the hot spring tiles in Melkawn's underground Gamling hall (sic) so that they now reduce insanity.

• Fixed the scripted name change that occurs for Miros and Karura.
  • In order to fix any existing issues with their name for saves from a previous version, a fix will be applied when entering Ruoza if their names are longer than they are supposed to be.

  • Unlike the first stage of the 8 gods or the weapons of the demi-gods, the NPC will drop this weapon when defeated.

1.95

1/6/2020

[Changes and additions]

• Added some main quest content, right up to just before the last floor [of the dungeon].

• You can now buy tips on how to beat the next main quest boss from informers at reasonable prices.
  • This is to reduce the number of players who can't seem to find the bosses' weaknesses and end up fighting them and dying again and again, and win only by sheer brute force.
  • As for players who don't manage to find this feature or zone out while reading the tips... there's really nothing I can do.
  • Might add to the tips or edit them in the future.

• Added 6 new items.

• Added 1 new yith NPC and its evolution.

• You now earn points from your shop. 5x as many points are gained in December.
  • Number of points earned depends on number of items sold (including item trades) and the number of customers. If no items have been sold, number of customers won't count.
  • Points earned by every shop you own is calculated separately, so it works in favour of players who own multiple shops.
  • Use a newly added item to spend your points and exchange them for an item of your choice.

• Big brush and crop management tools are sold in the Embassy in addition to being found in new [farms and ranches].
  • Letting players buy new deeds to replace any of the aforementioned items when they lose them seemed acceptable until I remembered that the embassy also sells the shop strongbox, found only in shops.

• Reduced the number of turns needed for fishing to 30%, but greatly increased the amount of in-game time that passes.
  • This is to make it feel more laid-back but less cumbersome. It can also be used to pass time if you're waiting for something.

• When using ground bait on a fish placed on top of a water tile, there is now a fish-rank dependent chance of generating a special item.
  • It generates at the player's feet, not on top of the fish.
  • The chance of this happening differs between each fish rank and is also affected by the rare loot trigger.

• Added additional effects to make placing items in a water tile feel like dipping them in water.

• Reduced the number of materials required to make [a batch of] ground bait by 1.

• The insects that spawn (i.e. weren't placed in the map) in a the basement of a certain house will now have the summoned NPC bit flag.

• Dipping unblessed items into cursed bottles of dirty water caused nothing to happen because they were already unblessed. Now, they will rust or rot.
  • This will not happen to food that is not made of raw.
  • It was weird that items would rust or rot only if they were blessed.

• The "WIN-Lv" number [on the character sheet] is supposed to be an indicator that your character is able to defeat enemies at that level.
  • In order to make it clearer that it's the level of Nefia that you can attempt at the current level, that number is now called "Proper N level".

[Fixes]

• Fixed some more descriptions.

• Fixed NPCs who are forbidden from items on the ground and are eating an item in their inventory not getting interrupted from their food when displaced by the player.

• Fixed harvesting rods of alchemy from magic crops under the effect of the [crop management tools] yielding scrolls of recharge instead due to a typo in item ID.

• Fixed card IDs 1,000 and above not displaying in the deck by increasing the range of card IDs displayed.

• Fixed certain graphic settings (e.g. setting Lighting to High) causing issue with fish sprites.

• Chestnuts and dead fish were moving around even though they're not fish, so they no longer share sprites with sea urchins and bomb fish. This will apply to only newly generated [chestnuts and dead fish].

1.95: detailed changelog

    • 21 unique artifact weapons (except ANNINDOFU, which can be found quite easily) that are not dropped by certain NPCs, do not have a guaranteed source, and appear only by spawning randomly.
    • The 3 unique artifacts obtainable only from new year's gift.
  • And places it at your feet. Every one of these artifacts has an equal chance of getting chosen.
  • The option that you choose doesn't affect anything and is just for show.

• Assorted herbs 8 dozen
  • curaria x40, stomafillia x16, alraunia x10, spenseweed x10, mareilon x10, and morgia x10 will be placed at your feet.

[Changes and additions]

• Added a bit more Act III main quest content.

• Added several new tile sprites for Act III.

• Added 1 new unique NPC for the main quest.

• Added 6 new mushroom race NPCs.
  • Placed one of those NPCs in a certain Act II sub quest.

• Added 1 new special action, exclusive to NPCs.

• Shift cores still require 100% or more gauge to use, but they no longer consume any gauge when used. This changes their balance quite a bit.

• Tending to crops a different way will cause the type of items harvested from them to somewhat change, allowing the player to have some control over what items to farm.
  • Added a new item that increases the +enhance value of harvested items and crop growth speed.
  • Decreased the random variation in +enhance value of harvested items.
  • The new item does not spawn randomly, and is placed on ground in a new farm.
  • It increases the amount of manual labour needed for farming, but allows some choice in what you want to grow and enables some farming roleplay.

• Decreased the selling price of muskmelons and watermelons so that they are just somewhat more expensive than other fruits.

• Increased all types of experience gained from curaria.
  • Increased Speed experience gained from stomafillia so that it's now the best herb for training that attribute.
  • Increased the spawn chance of the other 4 types of herbs but slightly decreased the amount of experience they give.
  • This is to make all types of herbs similar in their usefulness.

• Types of herbs harvested from crops now depend on the season and therefore change every 3 months.

• Type of random artifacts harvested from crops also depend on the season and change every 3 months.
  • Speed rings and aurora rings are always harvestable and at a constant chance. The chance of harvesting other artifact types will change as their group goes in and out of season.
  • Unknown seeds no longer yield random artifacts.

• Changed the types of rods harvestable from crops as there were too many different types.
  • Some types of rods are no longer harvestable as the player already gets those in excess.
  • When harvesting a rod, it has a low chance to turn into a rod of wish or rod of domination.

• Made ranches start with a big brush on the ground. You really need only one, so big brushes no longer spawn randomly.

• Made uncooked and non-rotten fish items placed on the ground move randomly around their tile (in water and on dry land).
  • Their shadow will not display to prevent inconsistencies with their movement.
  • Frequency and behaviour of movement will vary slightly between fish types. Some will jump around while others are barely noticeable.
  • They will not move when stacked with other items or if they have a custom sprite.
  • This is to make them look a little more alive in their pond and on your chopping block.

• Added 4 new fish types.
  • They can be fished up only in Aimwell with any type of bait. These are the only types of fishes obtainable there.

• Decreased the selling price of fish that have never been fed before after obtaining them from fishing.
  • Increased the rate at which the selling price of fish increases with the number of times they have been fed.
  • Item fusion now crafts 5 ground bait at a time.
  • This is to reward effort put into fishing.
  • Increased selling price and experience from eating feels a little lacking, so there may be more [reasons to feed fish] to come in the future.

• Removed the level cap for spawned monster balls.
  • The constraint that allows monster ball levels to go no higher than the lowest dungeon floor cleared + 10 remains.
  • Monster ball sell price increases with level but only up to Lv200.

• Made slight changes to the properties of the doors and map tiles on some maps.

• The conditions for completing a part of the Act III main quest were unclear, causing some people to think that not being able to complete it was a bug, so the descriptions in the journal have been rewritten to be clearer.

• Revamped the descriptions of usable items. They now specify if an item is single-use or reusable.

[Fixes]

• Fixed some descriptions.

• Fixed setting the atmosphere (full-body portrait) for the player causing it to get used in main quest cutscenes.

• Fixed magaice not being excluded from the list of forbidden junk items, causing pets to refuse to take it.

1.94: detailed changelog

[Additional main quest content]

• Cutscene upon entering the 6th floor of West Raskilis valley. The 7th floor is inaccessible for now.

[New special action]

• Downpour Spore
  • Rolls to apply sleep and slow to all characters (except allies) in sight.
  • Power depends on the user's Magic.
  • Of the existing characters, black angel hair, kesalanpatharan, mushrooman (evolved mushroom. NB: no English name. Evolved from mushroom, spore mushroom, and chaos mushroom) now use it.

[New NPCs]

• <Bonyac> the general vendor
  • Level 30 norland. Bonus to Cooking skill. No special actions.

  • Level 75 mushroom. Squeeze, Voracity Fang.

• rushroom
  • Level 38 mushroom. Uses Continuous attacks.

[New item]

• crop management tools
  • Does not randomly spawn. Placed in new farms.
  • Using it while standing on top of a crop in its 1st stage of growth will offer some options.
  • Select an option to spend 10sp and do the selected task. This halves the number of refresh ticks required for the next stage of growth.
  • This does not directly cause crops to grow (if it did, there would be no point in using fertilizer).
  • Doing this at least once will cause the +enhance value of items harvested from this crop, if applicable, to increase by 3.
  • The first time a management option for a particular crop will also determine what items are harvested from this crop and give Gardening skill experience.
  • There are 5 options, but in many cases an item type has more than one option assigned to it; choosing either will cause the crop to grow that item.
  • The options will also change when it is raining, but this is just a change in flavour text. The option's position in the list is what affects the type of item grown.
  • When the season has changed, selecting an option will cause the crop to produce its respective items for that new season and option.
  • Selecting an option does not affect the chance of harvesting potions of cure corruption, rods of domination, speed rings, and aurora rings. Other items have a low and fixed chance of turning into these items during harvest.

1.93

10/27/2019

[Changes and additions]

• The option to change the atmosphere (NB: full-body portrait) is now available from the 'i'nteract menu and not from the conversation window.
  • With this, every character including the player character and non-pet NPCs can have a full-body portrait assigned to them.
  • The full-body portrait is also now displayed when the 'i'nteract menu is open.
  • Characters on the left in a tag team will have their portrait displayed on the left, and on on the right for characters on the right.

• Added an underground map to Amur-Cage.
  • Talk to <Amurdad> to make the staircase appear.
  • This is where the unique NPCs that spawn randomly and the [Fort of] Chaos god NPCs will be placed when they are defeated.
  • The random unique NPCs will be here even if they were recruited as pets, and the [Fort of] Chaos NPCs will be here even if they were defeated in the Void or a showroom map.

• Added the spell version of bonus points - spellbonus points. Available only to the player character.
  • The bulk of these points are earned when leveling up - the number of points gained depends on Learning attribute and character level. The number of points is unaffected by the Yerles race trait.
  • You no longer have to spend skill bonus points on them and don't have to spend as many platinum pieces for magic practice sessions.
  • It also allows you to focus on leveling a single spell.
  • 5 x player level spellbonus points will be given to save files from a previous version of the game when updating the game.
  • When starting a new Purge mode game or upon updating the game with a Purge mode save file from a previous version, 10,000 spellbonus points will be given.

• Main quest section in the journal now has a progress indicator.
  • Use it to check if you have triggered events and for reporting bugs.

• 5 new metal race NPCs.

• 1 new special action. Exclusive to NPCs for now.

• 3 new unique artifact weapons.
  • 2 of them spawn on certain monsters, 1 of them can be found randomly generated.

• A new item that prevents the holder's cold-element attacks from shattering items.

• And another new item.

• Slightly reduced the damage of Eye of Stiffen and Eye of Illusion but increased the strength of the status ailment they apply.

• Added some code to handle what happens when targeting, interaction, some special actions, and the use of some items is cancelled (e.g. the dialogue for picking a tag partner or a list of option to pick from).
  • The aforementioned user inputs can now be cancelled with the cancel key.

• When an NPC uses the Dominate spell or when using that spell on a target that cannot be dominated and the attempt succeeds, the target is now paralysed regardless of resistance to paralysis.
  • Unique NPCs and <boss> monsters will be paralysed for 10 turns, and other characters for 30 turns.
  • Characters already paralysed and those who have just recovered from paralysis will not be paralysed.

• The arena and pet arena now count number of wins instead of consecutive wins.
  • As such, the counter no longer resets upon losing or forfeiting, lowering the bar for attempts.
  • To prevent the matches from being a boring grind, however, opponent levels are now increased if their level is a certain amount lower than the number of wins. This applies regardless of whether the player is currently rank 1 in the arena or not.

• Opponents in arena duel matches no longer become boss NPCs at a certain arena rank.
  • Removed the bias in monster type selection, and made it possible to know the opponent's level but not the monster name.

• Items rewards for the arena and pet arena every 3, 10, 30, and 50 wins.
  • Coin and material rewards stack, but multiples of the same item won't.
  • Also changed and rebalanced the 100th win reward for the arena and pet arena. The 100th win reward is now given whether the player is rank 1 in the arena or not.
  • All rewards will be placed at your feet upon return to town.

• You can now only challenge the pet arena (includes pet duels and team battles but not EX arena battles) a maximum of 3 times every 24 hours.

• Rebalanced the amount of attribute experience gained by eating herb in food.
  • After taking in to account the difference in stats, the amount gained from eating the herbs alone, and the ability to share a meal, the player character and NPCs will earn experience in a 3:5 ratio (previously 1:5). The amount gained by NPCs has not changed.

[Fixes]

• Inheriting a pet with red spindle of soul spindle now resets the servant/master value reset date to prevent that date from getting assigned a future date.
  • Updating the game save to 1.93 will also reset the servant/master value reset date. (They have to be on the same map as you or have to be brought into your party.)

• Elemental damage that is reduced by PV and DV is no longer nullified by characters with the cResEle [elemental immunity] bit flag.

• Fixed <The White Hawk> unique artifact [not reducing long sword gauge attack damage].

• Fixed the issue where paralysis goes away in 1 turn and without displaying any message.

• Fixed the mix-up in the code for <Go-Renge>'s use as a ranged weapon, preventing characters from being able to throw it.

• Fixed eating chewing gum and gum remnant not giving any food effects (like poison, love potion, and herb potential increases) because the game was looking up the new gum remnant product that was in the process of getting generated.

1.93: detailed changelog

[New special action]

• Acid Hurricane
  • An acid-element beam attack.
  • Damage dealt by it cannot be mitigated in any way so the base damage is rather low. This also means Control Magic will be very effective with this.
  • If the target has the cArmour bit flag, it will also inflict Poisoned status ailment regardless of resistance to said status ailment.
  • If the target has the cMetal bit flag, it will also inflict Poisoned Bad! status ailment regardless of resistance to Poisoned status ailment.
  • Both of these status ailments will stack with repeated Acid Hurricane attacks.
  • <Luluwy>, <Dain> the elder of hill, hel, and cloudragon will now use this.

[New NPCs]

• desktop navy
  • Level 82 metal. Has cNoHorse (i.e. not suitable for riding) and cMetal bit flags. Comes with Swimming skill by default.
  • Can spawn in a swarm with desktop birdie, described below.
  • Has a decent chance of using Rocket Fire when its power gauge is 25% or greater.

• desktop birdie
  • Level 90 metal. Has cNoHorse, cMetal, and cFloat bit flags.
  • Can spawn in a swarm with the aforementioned desktop navy.
  • Will rarely use Charge Attack.

• orichal-co
  • Level 124 metal. Has cNoHorse, cMetal, and cFloat bit flags.
  • Uses Feather and Shining Wave, but will prioritize using Contingency over those two moves.

• old bell
  • Level 153 metal. Has cNoHorse, cMetal, cResEle (i.e. immunity to elemental attacks), and cFloat bit flags.
  • Has Investing skill by default.
  • Uses Acid Hurricane, Raging Roar, Smash Ground, Golden Storm, and Psychic Wave.
  • Spawns with a larger amount of gold. Drops some of its gold when killed, but not as much as when a gold bell is killed.

• silver skull majesty
  • Level 174 metal. Has cNoHorse, cMetal, cResEle, and cFloat bit flags.
  • Death word breaks when killed.
  • Has Control Magic skill by default.
  • Uses Mist of Darkness, Mist of Dazzling, Formless Fetter, Death Word, Dominate, and Regeneration.

[New items]

• magaice
  • The cold version of magatama. Generated randomly.

• scroll of witchcraft
  • Low chance of generating randomly. Not sold in shops.
  • Like scrolls of faith, nothing will happen when it is read by an NPC.
  • Grants 5 spellbonus points when read by the player character. Number of spellbonus points does not change when the scroll is blessed or cursed.
  • This is so that people don't have to hoard the scrolls to bless and read them all at once, causing the player to go without any spellbonus points to spend for long periods of time and then having to spam a large amount of scrolls later.

• <Kani-kama>
  • Sometimes equipped by death maneki, basatan, hell crab, and fire crab.
  • The mobs listed above have a decreasing chance of having it equipped in that order. Unique artifact scissors.

• <Fright Prawn>
  • Sometimes equipped by magic hawk moth, indigo lobster, and rogue warrior.
  • The mobs listed above have a decreasing chance of having it equipped in that order. Unique artifact grenade.

• <ANNINDOFU LIKE A LIGHTSABRE>
  • Generated randomly. Unique artifact lightsabre.
  • Has a chance of generating randomly even at low danger levels, but when it does it will be weaker and have a lower selling price.
  • But even then, it's still useful as a source of stardust and for buffing Cooking skill.

[About arena rewards]

• The arena awards
  • potion of resistance every 3 wins,
  • scroll of witchcraft every 10 wins,
  • scroll of growth every 30 wins,
  • astral light pen every 50 wins,
  • and potion of evolution + potion of descent + treasure map every 100 wins.

• The pet arena awards
  • scroll of change material every 3 wins,
  • scroll of superior material every 10 wins,
  • craft repair kit every 30 wins,
  • evolution heart every 50 wins,
  • a random material kit every 100 wins + god heart

• For both the player and pet arenas, the number of items awarded for the 100th win will increase at the 200th and 300th win.
• These changes are to make the arena more rewarding, save the player some platinum pieces, and to make it easier to gear up all members in the player's party.

1.92

9/16/2019

[Changes and additions]

• Added a bit more Act III main quest content.

• 2 new NPCs in Act III.

• Added 2 new Throwing-based special actions. They may be difficult to use, but make up for that with their power and area of effect.

• Replaced the Quick Use special action with a new and more watered-down one.

• Changed one of the options that are purchasable with AP. The option to learn Struck Out is now "Tactical Throw". NPCs who have acquired this will be able to use several Throwing-based special actions.

• Accuracy of attacks is now doubled during Continuous attacks special action even if accuracy is negative.

• Removed the additional evasion roll granted by Killing Dance [buff], and replaced it with a buff to Evasion skill.

• Power gauge will now increase by 4% when evading an attack (includes Greater Evasion procs).
  • Unlike getting hit, this can increase power gauge by more than once per turn.
  • This is to discourage brute-forcing with a large number of attacks, and instead reward increasing accuracy and evasion.

• Added upper and lower caps to the number of moves an NPC can make based on their speed relative to the player character's.
  • They can now only move at most 20 times per turn the player makes (even if they have 100 times the player character's Speed), or at least 1 time out of every 20 player turns.
  • Shouldn't have much of an effect on normal gameplay.

• The experience multiplier in overdose mode no longer applies when gained experience is negative.

• The slow digestion feat will now work only when satiety drops to Hungry.
  • Now it won't get in the way of stat gain.

• When in Purge mode, the player character's hydration level will not decrease beyond a certain value - just like NPCs.
  • Starving! and Drying! statuses also won't decrease HP and stamina.

• It will no longer be as dark at night outdoors when a torch is lit.

• Buffed the [additional] damage [received] when [afflicted] by Wince and Chills status ailments from 10% to 20%.

• Wince and Chills status ailments from fire and cold-elemental attacks respectively will now apply and stack like the status ailments for the other elements.
  • They also have their own icon bubble now.
  • Wince and Chills status ailments from fire and cold-elemental attacks (respectively) can now be blocked by Holy Veil and Regeneration respectively.

• Type of items produced by statues of Kumiromi and Yacatect and the cute fairy no longer depend on the day. They now depend on the total number of times they have produced an item.

• Changed how Little sister corpses give their +1 Life and Mana bonuses.
  • The chance to increase Life and Mana used to be random and dependent on the rare loot trigger as well as the current Life and Mana.
  • The corpses are now guaranteed to give 1 Mana every 3 corpses [eaten], and 1 Life for every 6 corpses.
  • The changes take into account the fact that Cooking skill can produce multiple items from 1 corpse and the difficulty in obtaining magic fruits and hero cheese.

• Player skill experience is now 3 times [what it was in vanilla Elona].
  • Pet skill experience remains 4 times the amount [gained by player characters in vanilla Elona].
  • This is to address the fact that training the player character was not as efficient as training pets, but there are a lot more ways of gaining skill experience for the player.

• Zaile, West Raskilis valley, and Amur-Cage can now be Returned to.

[Fixes]

• Fixed some descriptions.

• Fixed the issue with the amount of bonus experience gained when the player character defeats an enemy of a lower level.

• Fixed Little sister corpses generated by bio printer giving their effect when eaten - their effect was coded separately from that of other corpses.

• Fixed issue that rat and harpy race characters had with their set of limbs after Icolle deletes a body part.

• Fixed the number of mineral-type materials received not matching up with the number listed in the log when receiving materials from pets.

• Fixed being able to increase Life with AP even when base Life is 300.

1.92: detailed changelog

[Additional main quest content]

• Cutscene upon entering 4F of West Raskilis valley. 5F is inaccessible for now.
  • When entering 3F, the Researcher crisis sub quest will be removed whether it has been undertaken or not. <Allen> the researcher's lines in that cutscene will change accordingly. Does not affect story progression.

• <Strange old person>
  • Level 180 spirit. Corpse is human flesh.
  • Uses Nerve Arrow, Nether Arrow, Formless Fetter, Eye of Illusion, and Mist of Darkness.

• oblivion rude beast
  • Level 200 servant. Placed in West Raskilis valley. Does not spawn randomly.

  • Eye of dimness, Distant Attack, Memory Poison, Summon chaos (summons oblivion rude beast).

[New special actions]

• Destiny dice
  • Learned upon leveling up when Throwing skill is 40 or greater.
  • Deals Throwing and Dexterity-dependent damage on enemies in sight. Reduced by target's PV and DV.
  • However, a fumble occurs when rolling 95 to 00, and only the user will take damage.
  • When rolling 01 to 05, a critical attack occurs that causes a bit more inflicted damage, and also absorbs a very small amount of HP, MP, and SP.
  • Now used by Ehekatl, God inside Ehekatl, and ganmbler (sic).

• OverLimit-Throw
  • Learned upon leveling up when Throwing skill is 60 or greater and Meditation skill is 30 or greater.
  • Gives the target a buff with the same name. While buffed, regular attacks made by throwing items will be buffed with the Meditation skill, but MP will be decreased by a Meditation skill-dependent amount per throw. (Mana reaction will not occur.)
  • If the target already has that buff, removes the buff.

• Power Item
  • Replaces the Quick Use special action. Learned upon leveling up when Alchemy + Throwing + Magic Device + Literacy skills = 150 or greater.
  • Gives a buff of the same name that buffs Alchemy, Throwing, Magic Device, Literacy skill levels by 1.1 time plus some.
  • Zapping, throwing (except regular attacks with throwing items), quaffing, using liquids to drench yourself, and reading will increase the power gauge while buffed.

[Changes to an option at AP shop]

• Tactical Throw
  • Replaces the option to learn Struck Out. (NB: Cost of 500 AP remains the same.)
  • The pet will:
    • have a chance to use Power Item when not buffed by it.
    • have a chance of using OverLimit-Throw when at 1/3 MP or more and not already buffed by it.
    • have a chance of getting rid of an existing OverLimit-Throw buff when at less than 1/3 MP.
    • use Over Long Throw when the enemy is 4 tiles or more away.
    • have a low chance to use Struck Out.
  • All of these apply only when the pet is equipped with a weapon it can throw.

1.91

7/28/2019

[Changes and additions]

• Some more Act III main quest content.

• 1 new Act III map.

• 4 new unique NPCs in Act III.

• 11 new map tiles.

• Using the <Fixity anchor> on a character that already has the Shooting Mode buff will now remove that buff.
  • It will also remove any Bind status that was applied by the Fixity anchor.

• Items that spawn less frequently beyond a certain threshold of shop rank and dungeon danger level will now have their rarity increase more slowly, at a rate of 1/10 the value in previous versions. This means that these items will still have a chance to spawn unless shop rank and danger level are about 1000-2000.

• Added the ability to change the minimum skill experience received by [allied characters] in Purge mode.
  • This minimum can be set to anywhere from 0.001 to 100 at the Devil Cape.
  • Unlike the extra experience received from the Overdose mode multiplier, experience received in this manner is unaffected by potentials and goes directly towards skill levels.

• Increased the chance for the equipment attribute that invokes Shining Wave to proc to that of the equipment attribute that invokes bolt spells.

• The number of hands now gives a percentage increase bonus to critical rate when wielding a two-hand weapon. (No bonus when wielder only has 1 hand; bonus maxes out at 4 hands.) Extra hands are now useful even if they are not equipped with anything.

• Changed the accuracy of Martial Arts attacks so that it is on par with weapon attack accuracy. However, this accuracy now also has a percentage bonus depending on the number of hands. (No bonus when user only has 1 hand; bonus maxes out at 4 hands.) Martial artists do wear protective gear, after all.

• Increased the base damage dice for Martial Arts and also the rate at which the dice increase with skill level.
  • It would be too broken if the dice increase up to skill level 2000, so they cap out at skill level 550. All in all, the damage cap is lower but is reached more easily.

• Increased base armour pierce for Martial Arts from 5% to 15%. Decreased the rate at which armour pierce increases with Martial Arts skill level.
  • The cap of 50% armour pierce remains the same.
  • This and the previous changes should make Martial Arts viable right from early game, and also stronger throughout the game until the damage cap is reached.

• Armour pierce of weapons will now also increase with weapon skill levels - though at a lower rate than armour pierce from Martial Arts skill.
  • Armour pierce of weapon skills that have a lower base armour pierce will increase more quickly with skill levels.
  • This is so that low pierce weapons don't become irrelevant in late game where the difference in damage dice between weapon types is diminished.

• Defeating an enemy with a higher Speed attribute will now award a small amount of Speed experience.
  • This is also awarded to the tag partner if applicable, and to the player if it was a summoned undead that defeated the enemy.
  • To make it harder to have a higher Speed attribute than enemies in the current act of the main quest that the player is in, this does not apply in the Void, nor does it apply to monsters that were summoned or split.

• Food no longer give Speed experience depending on their +enhance value.
  • Instead, they will give Speed potential depending on the +enhance value.
  • This Speed potential is given to both the player character and the pet when sharing a meal.

• Slightly increased the amount of +enhance value-dependent potential that picnic baskets give to make up for the effort required to create them.

• Doubled the amount of potential that is gained due to character class when sleeping.

• Changed the [Japanese] descriptions of special actions so that they now say "regular attack" instead of "physical attack".
  • This is to make a distinction between special actions that execute regular attacks and those that are a completely different type of attack.

• Changed some other descriptions.

[Fixes]

• Items can no longer be thrown onto a tile that has a closed door, board, town board, or voting box.
  • Thrown items that miss their target tile will also not land on tiles with the aforementioned objects.

• Fixed equip update not properly changing war hammers into clubs.

1.91: detailed changelog

1.90

6/17/2019

[Changes and additions]

• Reverted the default BGM in Your Home to the vanilla Elona piece [PSML516] because the composer has put it up for distribution again.
  • The very excellent piece used until now [machi04] is now set to the default BGM in the storage, shelter, and discarded ranch in order to keep its presence in the game.
  • Both of these changes will not affect existing saves unless you change the BGM or construct a new deed.

• Added unique artifacts for the weapon types that don't have one yet: kunai, fleure, drill, tomahawk, scissors, shakujo, nunchaku, crossfire, sox, ballista, rock, repeating bow, and short bow.
  • These will all spawn at random, but in future versions they may get dropped by certain monsters instead.

• Added 1 new equipment attribute.

• Added 7 new orc race NPCs.

• Added 2 new evolutions.

• Rebalanced the amount of Negotiation experience gained from buying and selling.
  • Greatly increased the amount gained at every Negotiation level, but decreased the amount gained per transaction.

• Defeating an enemy with one of the Negotiation special actions will now give regular character experience as well as an enemy level-dependent amount of Negotiation experience.

• When the player character defeats an enemy of a lower character level, it now gives at least 10 experience even if the initial calculation rounds down to 0.

• Added text to hint to what will happen if you stay behind and help Icolle with his experiments after his sub quest.
  • Also, if the game fails to lookup the race of a character because the game save is from a later version or something, that character will be given a set of human body parts.

• Mixing a bottle of dirty water or other similar items with a blessed item will now remove that item's blessed status.
  • Regular dirty water will un-bless one item, and blessed dirty water will un-bless the entire stack.
  • Mixing cursed dirty water will also cause the target item to corrode or rot.

• Added 2 new materials - bamboo and nanomachine.

• Wooden items now generate naturally.
  • Newly-generated wooden items will now have the equipment attributes intrinsic to wood.

• Lead material now has its own intrinsic equipment attribute as well.

• Regular attacks of repeating bow, machine gun, gun pair, and shot gun now have new animations.

• The sprites of certain items like scythes, axes, shields, shurikens, and panties, and also items thrown with Spinning Throw will now spin on their way to the target.

• Short bows now have their own sprite. They no longer look identical to long bows.

• <Astral Sickle> is now a bone scythe. Changed its damage dice.

• The kneaded sweets of witch item will now cause only 5 turns of Unconsciousness (i.e. half its usual number of turns) when used on a unique NPC.
