MV Wednesday Updates!
Community Announcements - Archeia
Hi everyone, we're still sorting through fixes for RPG Maker MV. Right now, investigating people's PC specs is taking us a while but we have it on high priority!
So, what do we do while waiting for the updates? Every Wednesday, we'll be updating everyone with free resources and possibly fixes until they're integrated to the engine!
Parallax Blur Fix
by DEGICA, Kentou
This fixes the blurring for parallax backgrounds if a non-power of 2 parallax image is used.
Parallax Tips
Did you know that adding a ! on the filename of your parallax makes it lock it to the map? Now you don't need a plugin to do that!
Fluid Timestep
by Galenmereth
This makes the game run at normal speed (animation, movement, and anything else) regardless of framerate. By default, MV run on a 144hz monitor would run at 144fps and everything would move at 2,4 times normal speed. Likewise, if someone ran the game and only managed 30fps, everything would move at half normal speed.
Still having troubles with FPS?
If you're using a 4k Television or Monitor try connecting it to the Display Port instead of HDMI. It should run at 60 FPS after that.
Resources Included!
A recreation of our beloved RTP heroes in MV style! Let us thank Caz, Archeia and Thernz for their hard work. Aluxes, Fess and Alexis reporting for duty~
Character Generator Parts
Right now, only Alexis's clothes are available. We'll be providing Aluxes and Fess's outfits really soon! Look at this video for how to install them in your character generator! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_nPeKHy0sg
Nineteen (19) 32x32 Icons by Ocean's Dream!
We all want some more detailed pixel icons. So let's have some!
Single State Plugin by Yami
This plugin restricts battlers to be affected by only one state.
MV Wednesday Updates Part 2
Community Announcements - Archeia
Hi everyone, we're still sorting through fixes for RPG Maker MV. Right now, investigating people's PC specs is taking us a while but we have it on high priority! I would like to thank KisaiTenshi for helping us a lot to determine about the lag issues and the minimum requirements to run MV games properly. You can find Part 1 over here!
So, what do we do while waiting for the updates? Every Wednesday, we'll be updating everyone with free resources and possibly fixes until they're integrated to the engine!
Down Animals by Caz
Caz returns to this release with a cold-hearted twist...
Terrence from VXAce Returns! by Caz and Archeia

Woo 32x32 Icons~
Enemy Offset Plugin by Yami
Do you have a monster battler that's just too big that you can't manually move them in the troop editor? Does your game have high resolution?
This plugin fixes that! You can either have an absolute position or just an offset!
Common Wizard Battler by Marimo
The awesome Marimo brings us some badass wizard!

MV Wednesday Updates Part 3
12月9日 - ARCHEIA
Hi everyone, we're still sorting through fixes for RPG Maker MV. Right now, investigating people's PC specs is taking us a while but we have it on high priority! I would like to thank KisaiTenshi for helping us a lot to determine about the lag issues and the minimum requirements to run MV games properly. You can find Part 1 and Part 2 over here!
So, what do we do while waiting for the updates? Every Wednesday, we'll be updating everyone with free resources and possibly fixes until they're integrated to the engine!
Status Updates about the Fixes
Q.1. I can't play my MV game or I get Actors.json or something like that error!
Answer: It means that your browser doesn't allow you to run local files. Try using Firefox or if you're using Google Chrome, consult this guide http://www.chrome-allow-file-access-from-file.com/
Q.2. When are you updating the core engine with all the bugs?
Answer: It depends which bugs we're talking about. We have provided fixes for main issue errors since Part 1. If you're talking about 'lag' issues then make sure to have sent us the CPU-Z.html file we have requested in an earlier request.
Most computer specifications that was sent so far doesn't meet our standard system requirement or OPENGL and it's a miracle that MV even works on some of these computers. You should have been sent an email to detail your error. If you haven't then make sure to email us. We do have an in-depth report to address the cause of lag in the pipeline as soon as we get the go signal to make it public.
Q.3. Ever since the newest update, I can't make or open new projects anymore
Answer: Our update shouldn't have affected the exe at all. If that was the case, use the beta option to go back to 1.0.0
Dog Barking by Caz
It's alive?!
Eric is back from VXAce Returns! by Caz and Archeia.
Brian from RPG Maker 2000 joins the fray by Thernz
Including generator parts for Brian!

MV Wednesday Updates Part 4
12月16日 - ARCHEIA
Hi everyone, here's another batch of free resources!
So, what do we do while waiting for the updates? Every Wednesday, we'll be updating everyone with free resources and possibly fixes until they're integrated to the engine!
Status Updates about the Fixes
Q.1. I can't play my MV game or I get Actors.json or something like that error!

Q.3. Ever since the newest update, I can't make or open new projects anymore
Answer: Our update shouldn't have affected the exe at all. If that was the case, use the beta option to go back to 1.0.0 in Steam. It's not possible in standalone. Request a special version on support.
Q.4. Editor and Sound Bugs
Answer: Provided by KisaiTenshi.
The RPG Maker MV editor uses it's own copy of Chromium separate from the copy used to playtest the game. This makes it difficult to determine if the editor is indeed running in GPU accelerated mode or is falling back to a less efficient rendering path. In general if the editor lags, so will the game client. What is questionable is when the game client has different behavior from the editor.
Typically the reason for the lag has more to do with the user's GPU, or rather lack of WebGL/OpenGL ES2.0 hardware support. Chromium uses ANGLE by default, but can be forced to use the desktop hardware native OpenGL ES 2.0 driver with the option desktop-gl. Chromium/Chrome does not currently do this due to bugs in the nVidia drivers that result in rendering bugs.
A combination of weak CPU + weak GPU (Single-thread Passmark below 800, or GPU Passmark below 500) will no doubt experience poor frame rate and audio stuttering. So make sure to check your GPU if it passes this benchmark.
One user reported that they were not running the standard mixing rate on their system and it was responsible for audio stuttering. I believe this has a more obvious explanation. Chromium likely does all the mixing at 48Khz, 16 bit audio, and when the user has their system set to 192Khz 24bit audio, this increases the CPU requirements by about 6-fold. The user in question has a high end system. Likewise some users in the forum reported using USB audio devices, this would also require a higher CPU use. In either case, these are not really things that can be controlled and is beyond the scope of what MV has control over. According to the data provided by the user, they are running their sound card at high sampling rates, and the log file warns of this. This would suggest that the software is being forced to resample. This is not the first time I've seen this kind of problem either as they tend to assume a fixed output of 16-bit/48000.
In addition to the General problem, when there are reports of audio lag, this suggests that the cpu is too weak to render the game at 60fps (stuttering) or disk speed is too slow (resulting in lag from playback point.) It's been noted that the problem with WebAudio is that it was designed for audio of short duration and that a different loading mechanism (MediaElementAudioSourceNode) should be used for streaming audio.
That being said, we do have an idea on how to improve the performance but it is taking us a while due to Japanese Release. Please be patient with us.
Q.5. Mac Standalone
Answer: We're still working on it but we are having troubles right now with the DRM.
Releases

Female Brian, Eric, Aluxes and Fess should have generator parts now.

通常,对于滞后的原因更多的是与用户的GPU,或者说缺乏的WebGL / OpenGL的ES2.0的硬件支持。Chromium引擎默认使用ANGLE,但可以强制使用桌面硬件本地的OpenGL ES 2.0驱动程序与选项。Chromium或Chrome引擎目前不这样做,因为存在导致渲染错误的NVIDIA驱动程序的bug。
MV Wednesday Updates Part 5
Hi everyone, here's another batch of free resources!
So, what do we do while waiting for the updates? Every Wednesday, we'll be updating everyone with free resources and possibly fixes until they're integrated to the engine!
Status Updates about the Fixes
Q.1. I'm getting white screen or splash screen crash errors!
Answer: There are two different reasons why this happen:
>> White Splash Screen : gfx driver most likely do not support Opengl, please make sure to update the driver to an openGL enabled most recent driver
>> Crash : there might be a problem with your graphic driver, reinstalling the driver from scratch can fix the problem
Q.2. When is Save Map as Image as Bug gonna get fixed?!
Answer: It's not a bug. It's intentional by Kadokawa. We don't know why they want it to save 1/4 of the map size either.
Releases
More RTP Recreations and Generator Parts
Craise (or Klaus for you older Rm2k/3ers) now has an MV sprite! Includes generator outfit.

MV周三更新5
大家好,这里是另一批免费的资源!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone! Thank you for being with us for another year of RPG Making! A quick update, if you wanted to use Luna Engine and haven't been able to do so at its current state, we have released the documented version over here in our lovely forums[forums.rpgmakerweb.com].
Now for our plans on this upcoming 2016. Are you ready?
- Official Asset Stripper to be incorporated in MV. Which means there is no need for third party tools to minimize your project's filesize.
- Official Image/Audio simple encryption. We're implementing a simple encryption tool that uses a unique encoding and key combination to encrypt images and audio.
- Additional parts for the Character Generator (around 40~50% of current contents). Our intention is to increase the age range of characters that can be created with the Character Generator, so you can make characters that aren't just young and pretty.
- Official plugins to be released: Touch UI plugin, Slot Machine plugin
RPG Maker MV had a demo in Japan to showcase its mobile prowess. We have a sample project to demo the plugin's use. There are plans to distribute this to the west as well. Here's a preview from the event!
Thank you やべえ for the image!
- We are planning to provide a better optimized (smaller files size) sound and graphics data
- And future fixes and requests.
Please stay tuned for 2016 and we hope to have another great year with everyone! What is everyone's New Years resolution? We're definitely curious!
