Latest beta just leaked, so here's an incremental update! Same deal as last time, just drop it in the Updates folder and delete the patch from your Patches folder, the beta already includes patch 4's changes.

Does anyone have guide for Sata Pong on the Mouse Princess route? I was stuck for 3 hours on that part alone.

Haven't restarted Mousey path yet since I'm still working on Shadow Princess route and that's being a pain since all of a sudden now EVERYONE wants to just be at peace. Give the wiki a quick look, sometimes it'll surprise you with updated info.

Two questions of me own: Have they ever fixed the problem of the roaming NPCs not roaming? And if not, is there some workaround I can use? Getting tired of not being able to recruit the Kobold knight just because she won't appear in the pub after completing the rest of her quest.

Wars aren't the only thing you can do to raise Shadow population. Use the Soul Whistle in the Putridarium for the Shadow Drain wish for 25 population per day for a week (Shadow Princess's wishes are available while she's on the throne). If you're willing and able to kill Insect Princess, her chicken wish will give Shadow reign 200 population.

In the beta you can press F9 to open a debug menu and set variables 1265, 1266, and 1284 to 0 to move all of the roaming NPCs to the tavern. Press W to scroll down faster. (1435, 1439, and 1440 control their affection, if you want to make Niu'ya like you again.)

Can't kill Insect Princess....I pretty much recruited all the Princesses except Mermaid who met a tragic end by FAFO. Which put me in a kinda bad spot, peak hindsight moment. Starting and controlling wars was far easier when the princesses were on the throne lol.

Thanks for info about the debug menu, but I'm not sure if it'll work on the stable version.

The debug menu doesn't work with the stable version. I haven't found a workaround yet. It may be possible with a save editor, but I wouldn't know what variables to look for with RpgMakerSaveEditor or SaveEditOnline.

Yeah, I tried that.....it's just armor/item/weapons and current party members info. I can probably use those variables you posted in MTool though.

Another script update for Joiplay. I'll get around to updating the mkxp-z archive soonish, but I don't think any of the changes affect it so it's not important.
Pixeldrain album link, for those who prefer it.

  • Refactored various bits of code.
  • Fixed an issue in my text opacity patch that caused text corruption from buggy graphics drivers.
  • Changed that path cache's format. It'll convert the old cache, so it won't take long to update even if you're using loose files.
  • Addressed another GC crash in Joiplay. I'm running a bunch of update archives for testing, and finally managed to push ruby hard enough to trigger a garbage collection while Joiplay is decompressing the scripts. Briefly testing a lightweight game with GC.stress=true didn't trigger any crashes with the fix, so I don't think there are any other spots in Joiplay that I need to hack around.
For the mkxp-z plugin, would it be possible for you to add a cheat that allows you to set the locations for wandering NPCs? This would be a great help for those of us trying to get the koblod paladin, as she is 1.) a pain to find (not on any of the maps for me) and 2.) even when you finish the quest for her, you can only recruit her at the tavern.

When you checked it, did you use RPGMakerSaveEdit? If you did then you have to move the save data out of the save folder and into the main folder. For some reason if you try to edit the file while it is in the save folder it doesn't work correctly. If you move it to main folder then the save editor will provide more access (aka you can actually edit the values and flags). I don't know why this is the case, but for some reason it works. You just have to remember to place the save data back into the sav folder when your done.

that's weird, thanks for the info!

Mtool worked just fine! Your variables matched up!

They're not my variables, I think you responded to the wrong person. If you got those variables to work though, which one is for Amelie (the kobold paladin)? I have looked through every map, and I am starting to think that I will have to use Mtool just to meet her at this point!
Edit: So Amelie wasn't in my "wanding npc lineup". I ended up with the most useless wanding npc: Mugan or whatever his name is. Any idea how to replace him with Amelie, or do I have to pray with my next run?

Giving her a Death Potion would kill her... but you pretty much need the Moth reign at war for that, so that's no good. You'll just have to use the Soul Whistle and wait, then.

Yeah, it doesn't work in the stable build. if that interests you. You could also download the latest compressed version and install my updates on top of it.

I could add that to my F7 menu, sure. No promises on when, though.

Variables 1246, 1247, and 1248 are the roaming NPC identities. 1 is Amelie, 2 is Michael, 4 is Mugen, and 5 is Niu'ya.

I'm in the homestretch so I'm just going to grind it out. I'm making 20-30 each day from the wars (got lucky and Gob vs. Cat war glitched so neither side progresses in their war) and already in the 900s so just a few more days until I'm done.

Thanks, was using the stable version for the achievements....but grew tired of that so now I don't mind which version I use.

You've probably finished by now, but don't forget you can crank the minutes per day down to 1 in the settings.

I don't know what the stable/beta version has to do with achievements. If you mean Steam achievements, then you can add a file named steam_appid.txt to the game folder and put 1083880 on the first line and the game will connect to Steam no matter where it is or how you start it.

Yup, I usually have it at 4. Lower than that feels too fast to do anything in the day, but more than that feels like too long once you're pass the beginning of a playthrough. I don't know how anyone can do the max 16 minutes per day.

Oh, I just got tired of even trying to go after achievements lol
