*Disclaimer* : I am not a part of this project, just a longtime player of Elona and longtime user of roguetemple that noticed a new release and figured someone should put it up here. I also did a web translation of the changes from the original game to post it as well.

Touched up the link a bit, nice to see things still moving since 1.08 :)

Thanks for posting - because of you I have learned about the game and I must say I am stunned by how good it is. Is there any place besides elona.wikia.com where information about the game is stored? Maybe some tricks and tips for beginners? So far I got killed numerous times by monsters and once by people displeased with my ability to play piano :)

http://homepage3.nifty.com/rfish/index_e.html/
This is the homepage for Elona - NOT Elona Plus. The original game developer finally moved on and ceased development, sending his source code, notes, maps and whatnot to the new team he was allowing to take over.
However ElonaPlus is really just Elona getting fixes, updating systems, adding more content etc. So a lot of this stuff is going to be relevant. You can peruse the forums for tips, or ask for help. There is also an english wiki, not sure how extensive that is.
Be wary. Elona is a very weird game.. and the difficulty can spike like crazy.
Watch out for kobolds. Early game creature that can truly *F* your world up. They shield bash you, which causes an off-balanced status called *dimmed*. When you are Dimmed you basically take massive damage from everything because you're too out of it to avoid attacks properly etc. Something like that. Its dangerous either way. Dont let kobolds get close!
In a room full of creatures, if you are using magic spells or the F key to fire your ranged weapon, be advised that it autotargets the closest / closest enemy. If you're strong you can just hold down F or your spell shortcut and rapid fire/cast until everything is dead. But... if there are any non-hostile NPC's there you will end up hitting them to eventually. The * key on the numberpad is the default target selection key. Live and Die by it. Nothing like going to sweep a room and accidentally shooting that Big Daddy that comes around the corner and having him gib you with his shotgun at close range.
Thats another thing, shotguns have an effective range for good damage of something like 2 squares, so stay 3 squares away at least. They are slow, its easy. Of course I could be off by a square, in which case you should stay 4 squares away.. heh.
***
Performer.. great way to make money and even items that get tossed at you.
But you have to watch out for the rocks. Some NPCs, especially some named ones like Loyter and He who walks in darkness (or whatever his name is) are EXTREMELY hard to please. Dont expect much great success / legendary success until you're like 20+ with performer, depending on your charisma. High speed is incredibly useful to make the performances finish faster and have less of a window to get killed by your audience.
Get as many pets as you can accomodate and go into your home. Play for your pets. No matter how bad you play, they will never kill you. The skill gains will be slow, but enough. Once you get maybe 6 or 7 skill, you can attempt playing in towns around low level NPC's but its still easy to die from them. And if high level NPCs.. guards.. named.. shopkeepers.. you name it.. happen to wander by. you die.
I would suggest getting to about 10 or so (with as much charisma as you can manage and any charisma and +perform skill equipment.
Then start doing easy "Party Time" quests.
They are not really 'easy'. You will die, a lot. You must learn which of the NPC's you have the skill to play around in these party rooms and keep the ones that are dangerous out of your line of sight (they cant hear you then). As you get better you can play for the harder ones and/or position yourself with more NPCs in your sight to make more money off each performance. If rested, depending on speed, most characters can play 2-3 times in a party time if fully rested, not encumbered, and not murdered by the audience!
The more people listening the more your skill increases.. but only if you FINISH the performance without interuption. So it takes a while. Palmia typically has the most party time quests. As said before, you will die a lot.. but it is OKAY..
Here is why.
If you want to risk playing at low skill in the open world, go right ahead, but be aware of this. If you die in the regular world, the full death penalty (once high enough for it to apply).. will hit you. That means you can randomly lose items including equipment and take irreversible damage to your stats. Sure, you can gain your stats back by training them as usual, but it will slow you down. If you are practicing performer in these situations chances are you will be able to die in a rapid fire manner and soon find your stats so low your entire character is useless. Not to mention losing charisma (and speed due to strength loss causing you to be too weak to carry your stuff) is a self fulfilling prophecy of death as you become even less likely to succeed.
If you die in a quest world such as party time... there is no penalty. The quest simply ends.

Yes, I noticed the game is weird. Sometimes in nice way, sometimes in not very nice... but overall, it's really amazing :) Thanks for the tips!

I gave it a try, but the keyboard controls are a bit broken on my laptop - I have to press shift to make the numpad work (my laptop has a numpad, but no numlock), and the shift key backs out of menus... I've tried this with auto-numlock both on and off.
Unfortunately I don't have any spare usb keyboards floating around.

I just found that Elona+ version 1.12 was released sometime in November ( http://wikiwiki.jp/elonaplus/ ). Feeling curious about whether there was a way to fix the non-functioning numpad, I went into the config.txt file and found that replacing
key_north. "8 "
key_south. "2 "
key_west. "4 "
key_east. "6 "
key_northwest. "7 "
key_northeast. "9 "
key_southwest. "1 "
key_southeast. "3 "
key_wait. "5 "
with
key_north. "8"
key_south. "2"
key_west. "4"
key_east. "6"
key_northwest. "7"
key_northeast. "9"
key_southwest. "1"
key_southeast. "3"
key_wait. "5"
allows me to use the numpad for movement. Still need to play the game, but now that the interface is fixed I'm looking forward to it.
-
Yes, I noticed the game is weird.
I think this was the roguelike where you can have a girl as pet. It's japanese for sure.
-
Any way someone could post a direct link? No clue which link to click. Is the game in English?
-
It is just the first dropbox link towards the top of the page of the Wiki site.

I think that is for the old Elona. Not ElonaPlus. At least that was the impression I got since the version numbers didn't seem to match up.
***Edit. Sorry. I was originally looking on the Elona wiki that was linked in this thread. Found the Elopnaplus wiki through google. Thanks.
-
No prob, I should've specified the one Quendus linked a few posts up as the correct Wiki for it. :P
-
Interesting game. The soundtrack is nice and the gameplay is pretty interesting.
Would be nice to have better information of the character creation aspects though. Most the starting selections I just picked based on how they sounded since I didn't know what they did exactly.
I like how it can be played with a gamepad, but it copuld use some work. Especially in the tutorial where it still refers to keyboard keys instead of the gamepad buttons.
Inventory was a little confusing to navigate. Otherwise, I like the rest of the interface.
Too bad all the "class" descriptions are not translated. I can guess what a gunner class is, but no real idea what Predator class is.
-

In the original Elona, Gunner and Predator are normally NPC-only classes, and thus are not properly balanced for player use, AFAIK. Why they made them playable in ElonaPlus is beyond me, but on the bright side, most of a class' features aren't exclusive.

Well, here's what's went down from v1.17 on back to v1.10
3/24/2013: We've hit 1.17!
bugfix: visitors to your home do not stay indefinitely anymore.
one new item, no new creatures.
3/10/2013: Now up to version 1.16, just like original Elona.
revamped hex/blessing status icons
furniture items are throwable by the player. Resulting damage is based on weight and throwing skill. Can't throw items that you are not allowed to pick up; can't throw items too heavy for your weightlifting skill. Can't throw wells but can throw moongates.
three new creatures and one new item.
2/16/2013: Version 1.15 is now out. From the devs, "Merry St Valentine's Day" 1) Stamina counter has been added.
2) Area 3 is under intensive development; but, no story access yet.
3) Added new skill based on firearms (100% hit rate).
4) Improved deflecting attacks with shields. Tonfa weapons are no longer shields.
5) Added three new pet evolutions. Evolution for Golden Knight servant improved.
6) Added randomly generated walnut for cooking (not just api nut anymoe)
7) AP skills added and revised. Breath and humorous skills modified. Non-elemental breath skill can reduce enemy magic. Bloodsuck skill improved. Stamina use increased.
8) Testing enchantment feature for non-unique artifacts. May be removed in the future.
9) Holy Veil and Prayer of Jua now have regeneration effect. Cheer skill stamina cost reverted and removed heal effect. Replaced boost and immediate heals for regeneration over time.
10) New item called the Coffin of Darkness can be used to summon up to 10 undead at a time. Unleash in the middle of a town for brainz!
11) Valentines Day event in February (in-game of course) where you can use a homemade chocolate kit to create homemade chocolate. Give as a gift to improve NPC attraction. Or you can eat it for yourself.
12) Fourteen new creatures.
2/5/2013: Elona+ 1.14 is a minor update adding a few items.
1) The third arc is introduced after beating the final boss in Remido (South Tyris main dungeon). An introduction by the the advisor in Palmia (the one who gives quests for North Tyris main dungeon) requires you to travel far east from Noyel to Mayroon. If this project continues, expect the Great Glacier and Mayroon to be the third part of the of the main storyline (
2) If you die in an area (North Tyris, South Tyris) without a home, you will be returned to the nearest town.
3) A pet evolution tree was added.
4) Warmage gets +3 initial Tactics skill.
5) The following game mechanics have been revised: i) character sheet, ii) initial attribute resistances by NPCs, iii) equation calculating attribute damage, and iv) grenades have been nerfed.
9/11/2012: Elona+ 1.10 has been released. Check the wikiwiki page above, the download link is on the front page. Back up your save folder before migrating to make sure your saves will be safe, This is supposed to be the final version of the South Tyris expansion. The development of the expansion will continue, with a new continent added. However, it will take a long time to complete.
Looking over the changes, here are a few differences in 1.10:
PCC files seem to have a seperate folder now
Coffin of necromancy displays level in the name of the monster(?)
New monsters, evolutions, items, and skills
Fox brother and wisp (not known is this is normal or demon's soul) evolutions added
New monsters: mishaguzi and ek chuah (latter's sprite may be bugged, need confirmation)
Sugaar has the mishaguzi sprite tinted yellow, heqet has a new unique sprite
<Danger Swimwear> and <War Suit> artifacts added (unique sprites). These can be bought from Gavela "after a certain point in the game". Not sure when. To get one, it appears you have to give up your Awesome Swimwear. The options that appear when you talk to him are 30 pp for the war suit, and 20 pp for the swimwear, in that order. There is a 3rd option and the "goodbye" option when the menu appears, but it doesn't seem to do anything. If you have the swimsuit equipped when you choose, it will not disappear until you unequip it, which is obviously a bug. The options might only appear if you have enough platinum? It might be possible to get another awesome swimsuit from the Strange Scientist to get the other artifact.
Special actions: Megid Flame (elemental scar on visible enemies and removes their buffs) and Absolute protect (user takes damage instead of allies, might replace provoke on the defender?).
There is another learnable ability called Shining Wave, which is strength based and costs 20 SP. I do not know the requirements for it. It does a fairly significant amount of ranged magic damage to a target. It also has a new animation.
Wizard harvest has been nerfed, with wish rods not showing up, or maybe showing up less often. Coins and medals might also drop less often, and gold gains seem to cap at 800 per pile. However, it now has a chance to create ancient books and treasure maps.
Potions of potential effect is reduced from the huge boost in 1.09.
With card decks, the domains have been removed and the cards are now divided by number.
Blessed and cursed age lunches now act differently from normal ones.
Material kits might be generated randomly in dungeons now.
If you gain more AP from a kill, the AP notification is blue?
Cost of doujou function have changed. It costs 10k to leave a pet, and something around 30k per pet per training, but with reduced effectiveness. I can't check the training thing yet since the doujou I had to use is bugged.
Cost of running a "store" reduced. (Not sure if this is just for a shop, or building maint costs overall)
Some additional (very bad) english added to some NPCs.
Some kind of change to flying scrolls. Not sure if this is weight/PV or damage/accuracy.
Quests have most of their names fixed now, so they have unique ones.
Quickling corpse speed boost increased?
As per this handy link which may well be one of the best ways to keep tabs on this mammoth project going forward:

v1.19
4/30/2013: Elona Plus version 1.19
[Changes and additions]
A new type of character has been added (Lava golem)
Prevented the unequipping and equipping of equipment during brainwashing.
Pets can no longer vanish in the pet show room and pet arena.
You now get bonus spell power depending on how high your elemental resist on that element is.
Mani's god gem's power has been adjusted and doesn't hit you anymore.
There will now be a sound effect for starvation.
You can now see spell potential on your spell select screen.
Spell stock consumption now lowered by 1/3.
Spellbooks now cost half price.
Removed the 1% spell potential gain after reading a book.
Sleeping will now let you gain 20% more spell potential on all spells except for ones that you don't have stocks to.
Trainers will now train your chosen skill's potential by 20% no matter what.
Added a special skill on all melee weapons except scythes that depends on your weapon proficiency scores.
(The special skill was intended to be something like Decapitation, but it seems we've reached the limit on how many invokes a weapon could have, so yeah)
It's proc rate is dependant on your skill level with the weapon and can activate once per turn.
You can set custom flavor text for this skill by editing the txtSpecial file.
You can only use this skill with an HP no less than 6/7.
If your opponent is wielding a weapon on their main hand, the special skill can be rendered invalid based on their greater evasion.
Even if it wasn't blocked by greater evasion, it still helps on lowering its damage.
Furthermore, even if it's in the same weapon category the invoked special skill will sometimes be different, but it's power and effect is still based on its original category. (For example, short swords and kitchen knives will use the short sword special skill, while ninja swords and pirate swords will use the long sword special skill. Even though they use different special skills, their power is still dependant on the short sword skill)
In relation with the update above (special weapon skills), fighter type NPCs' starting weapons will now be fixed. (Like minotaurs always spawning with heavy axes fit for two hand wielding, etc.)
Shield bash damage increased by a fair amount.
However, if your opponent is wielding a shield as well, the power of your shield bash will be lowered depending on their shield skill and greater evasion.
Its additional effect (dim?) can't be blocked.
Also, shield bashes can now only be used if your HP is no less than 6/7.
Tonfas activate a different skill now.
You can now set custom phrases for your PC now.
Forbidden meat effect changed.
If blessed, it'll change the consumer's gender to male or female.
Normal ones will change the consumer's gender into a would-be male or would-be female.
If cursed, it'll change the consumer's gender to a hermaphrodite or remove its gender.
Since the unique NPCs on the third continent are pretty weak, several of them will now be generating precious artifacts.
If your natural resistance on an element is now at 200 (normal resistance), food that increases/decreases your resistances will now produce no effect. For reference, No Resist is a score of 100 resistance.
NPC magic resistance will now increase depending on their level. The starting value for their magic resistance is at 100 and caps at 200 (its increase will start at lv51 and ends at lv300).
You can now prevent your pets from casting magic and using skills you don't want them to by exchanging 20AP to Leold.
[Fixes]
Fixed a bug where the sex-changed NPC doesn't show the right indicator on their conversation screen.
Fixed Mani's god gems description to show that its attack is of electric element.
Fixed conversation dialogue of generic NPCs in Arcbelc.
Fixed a bug that causes an error when you enter a garden without the gardening skill.
Fixed a bug that causes an error when you kill livestock in your ranch without the anatomy skill.
Fixed the amount of things you can put on a compost.
The place where the composts are in the older version has been changed into a grassland.
Newly generated gardens will now have 5 composts.
Weapons that had their names changed (by Garok, using the user/item folder files) will now display the correct name when wield proudly.
Fixed a bug where you can't finish unique sub quests after entering the Amur-Cage.
Fixed the cut damage on attacker attribute conditions.
Adjusted the cycle of appearing enemies inside The Void.

The former will now use the blunt skill for its hit and damage increase and have its dice halved. Furthermore, the damage done by guns and bows will be lowered and will not receive bonuses from their respective ammunition.
The latter will now use the throwing skill for its hit and damage increase. It'll also have limited range and will have no chance to proc their respective special skills.
An unarmed or a character with no hands at all can now block melee weapon special attacks by equipping a melee weapon on their ranged slot. If a unit is already wearing a melee weapon on one of their hands, that one will take precedence.
Equipping a shield on your ranged slot will not grant PV bonuses granted by shields along with being unable to block shield bash.
You now have the option to choose what slot a weapon will go to when it comes to pets. If a pet's hand slots are already full, the next melee weapon you give to it will be sent to its ranged weapon slot.
Walking on deserts will now have a high chance of causing confusion. Also, if the sun's still up, it'll drain your stamina greatly as well.
If your backpack has available space on it, the item you chose for fusion will now be separated from its stack.
You can now turn raw ores into jewels via pot of fusion.
The power of melee special skills has been adjusted. Also, it will not be random and can only be used when you're HP is not less than 6/7 anymore. Instead, you will now have a gauge below your HP bar. If the gauge reaches 100%, you will automatically trigger your special skill on your next attack.
The gauge will automatically lose its charge by 1% every turn and will be completely drained if you switched maps.
Doing physical attacks will charge the gauge by 2%.
Taking damage from enemies (even if it's 0 damage or the attack was evaded) will charge your gauge by 1%.
Whether you are on the attacking side or receiving side, you will only receive the charge after everyone's turn ends. Therefore, continously attacking enemies will not result in a faster rate of increasing your gauge charge.
When you beat a character, the same type of character around the attacker and ones you have hostile relations with will receive a 5% charge to their gauge.
When a character dies, the same type of character around the one who died and ones that it has hostile relations with will receive a 10% charge to their gauge.
However, this will only happen if the attacker and the one who died are in a hostile relationship.
We plan on balancing this on future updates. (ed: haha)
The shield bash feat has been changed to add additional effects to shield bash.
Hugging skill added.
If your impress level with the one you've hugged is not less than 100, when their HP decreases, you'll be transfering 1/10 of your life to heal them. Furthermore, if your impress level is not less than 200, custom flavor text (txtHug) will be used when you hug them. Displays the effect when snapping out of brainwash.
If your impress level with the one you've hugged is below a 100, the NPC you've hugged will be crushed and take damage depending on your strength. In other words, it is possible to kill enemies by hugging them, final boss or not.
The equipment that NPCs randomly generate on spawn are kinda weak, so they'll be spawning with upgraded equipment depending on their level now. (Lightsabers and precious artifacts excluded)
As a rough estimate, at level 30 NPCs will be spawning with +1 equipment while level 300 ones will spawn with +10 ones.
Scrolls of flying won't affect the stats of the item you used it on aside from its weight now.
An attacker's weapon that weighs 2x (As for martial arts, its weight depends on its level. 40:1) its original weight will now deal 1-3x critical damage. If the defender's total equipment weight is not less than 15s, the critical damage done to them will be reduced depending on it.
Overall rate for criticals lowered. Effect of critical enchants, mind's eye skill, perception and the predator passive increased by two times.
Evasion you get from DV increased by two-fold, evasion gained through perception halved.
Experience you get from traveling decreased slightly. Traveling for a short distance will now give out small experience, while long-distance traveling will stay as is.
The command flag can now order pets to 'intercept/counter attack'. This command will make your pets intercept enemy attacks at a certain range between you and them (somewhere around Cheer range). And they will not pursue anything else outside that.
Even if they went out of range, going back to their positions will be their priority. If ever a monster tries to block them on their way back, they will try and eliminate the one blocking them.
Fixes:
Fixed the description of some items.
Fixed staves special skill doing the wrong damage.
Fixed the behavior priority of melee and ranged frequency increase gained through AP.
Fixed a bug on gender-related evolution.
Females, would-be females and hermaphrodites will now evolve into female ones.
Males, would-be males and genderless ones will now evolve into male ones.
They really seem to be hitting a stride of updates!
-
Have you tried this? Is it a big improvement on the base game, or is it still pretty much Elona?
-
v1.23 and the interim:
Additions:
New skill 'preaching' added.
Preaching is based on and trains faith and will cause nearby NPCs to throw alms.
Being particularly successful will convert NPCs to your god and give you an experience bonus.
Chance of being stoned is low. (ed: how reassuring)
Get enough congregation together in one place and you'll start gaining favor with your God for a successful sermon, or something?
Awakened Nefia Dungeons will occasionally generate environmental effects such as poison rain or gravity wells. There are plans to try to balance all classes and styles of battle to work well in them.
Rare and specific tiles unique to each dungeon type have been added. This is purely for atmosphere.
Waking up between 4am and 9am will cause 'breakfast events' if a close friend is nearby. (Please god don't reference the squeeze skill.)
Potential for lucky days or power boosts if Cooking skill is sufficient.
All members will be Satiated.
The journal will now record various stats.
Increased probability of finding items when mining. For balance and common sense reasons, ores will only be found in cave dungeons. Similarly, gold coins will only be found in town.
Special moves will only do up to half a creature's max HP now. (ed: haha what? this has got to be wrong, surely?) Courage will not modify this, but Anger will.
Gauge can only increase a maximum of 95% due to damage received.
Gauge will change colour to white at 98% i.e. when an attack would cause a special move counterattack.
Insane characters will spout unique lines.
Levelling Axe to 10 will allow the chopping down of trees. Doing so with a chainsaw or large axe will allow the creation of timber. Plans to implement furniture building will be included soon.
One new evolution pattern was added
The evoution this refers to appears to be the hamster, although the cub also seems to have an undocumented evolution that was added during this patch or in a recent one.
Added an option for investing in bulk by 50
The cost is the average price of investing in the shop 50 times, which makes it a cheaper alternative.
This makes it easier to train your investment skill.
No Future mode only, added an equipment destruction system.
When you take a large amount of damage, there is a small chance that your equipment will degrade (Enchant -1, most likely).
Furthermore, acid damage will generally degrade equipment by -4 instead.
If your equipment's enchant level falls past -10, it will be destroyed. No mercy.
A 'Cancel' option was added to Command Flags and the Directive skill.
Partially implemented the Nefia (Nephia?) awakening system. (I don't know what this is, so this may be incorrect)
(From my understanding, this is talking about some sort of dungeon or map that is randomly generated from using an item, and there are plans to add in rare items that drop from clearing it later (for now it gives you small medals instead). Also mentions that the boss cannot be dominated, but can be captured with a Monster Ball).
This may be related to the Cradle of Chaos as well, which was added in the same patch, since it is not mentioned elsewhere in the patch notes. The stairs on the 3rd floor are locked and require an item to proceed.
Added a Return destination option for the third area (Ulm-Leson in Lost Irva).
Increased the distance needed to travel to raise the traveling skill
On the other hand, the amount of experience you gain per distance was increased
The quantity of goods a bakery sells now increases at higher shop rank.
(I'm not sure what this is about, something to do with spell reading fail summoning monsters and monsters coming out of the well. I believe the last part mentions a summoning bit and perhaps monsters disappearing after days pass?)
When an NPC with the Pickpocket skill kills an enemy, they receive a portion of the opponent's money (max of 2000gp). The skill is also raised from this action. This is to give meaning to NPCs having the Pickpocket skill.
Added a tag for Custom Tones. {しろ}
Compatibility for using {npc} and {nptc} replacement tags in Custom Tone was restored (?)
Added Crimberry. They can generally be found in the wild, but cannot be cooked. When eaten, they slightly increase your Sanity level.
Along with this, a recipe was added to the Pot of Fusion for Crim Ale that requires 10 Crimberries. Narcotics manufacturing pending.
Added Coffee. The player can drink this to remove a small amount of Sleepy status. If an NPC drinks it, it will cancel their sleep (perhaps prevent them from sleeping?)
Shadow Step should now not be inhibited in the Pet Arena.
Trying to equip a pet with a weapon will now properly ask you which slot you would like to equip it in, as well as the number if there's more than one. If you decide to cancel the selection, it will use the usual automatic equipment selection.
[Fixes]
Fixed notation in several places.
(Mentions using Squeeze to force sleep with pets, but I'm not sure what it means by the pet's spirit/soul and other mentions of attacks)
You should properly receive an error now when a payday arrives and your salary box is full (more than 401 items) (?)
When self-updating from a previous version, precious items you have equipped would lose their material effect enchantments.
Updating to 1.22 should re-correct this.
Male NPC's that had a female tone instead of a male tone should be fixed now. (?)
Fixed specific character's being able to break walls on the world map.
Fixed the inability to sell flour and eggs (as well as cooked variants) put in the cooler box. (Except already generated instances) (?)
New characters added (hamster, shooting hamster, death hamster, kiwi, gold kiwi, and a few NPCs have different sprites (Skeleton Hero, hedgehog, Thousand hedgehog, Hungry sea lion, Super hungry sea lion).
Added three instruments (serpent, ocarina, recorder).
Special system changes:
Only enemies over level 130 will use specials.
Enemies in Lost Irva can use specials at level 50. (Lost Irva is another area accessible after beating S.Tyris).
Enemies in No Future mode have no restrictions. (No future is essentially hard mode and can be chosen when creating a character.)
Pet special bar display can be seen by using a stethoscope.
Specials will no longer charge when friendlies of the same type die.
Charge gain from damage is capped.
Enemies that max out their special charge can't use it after getting killed. (Bugfix)
Specials are significantly nerfed, they rely more on equipment than stats.
Specials now do extra damage to stronger monsters if you have the Courage feat.
Pets set in defense mode can drain enemy charge using their own charge.
The Courage AP feat and the Fury status should factor into the damage done by the special skills.
The number of Little Sisters that you've saved/killed are shown in the journal. This might not work in the english version.
Pets will use Fishing, Detection, Gardening, Mining, and Gene Engineer to gather items while in dungeons. interact and talk with them to receive the items. This seems to happen randomly, rather than when you gather, and also will train their skills of the relevant type.
Thieves now do a guaranteed critical hit when attacking an enemy that hasn't noticed them. This may have replaced their class feat(?).
A new item called the soul spindle that can be created with tailoring will allow you to pass a pet along to an heir.
You need a relationship of soulmate or higher and the pet will take a big hit to stats/skills/AP when it is inherited, including the loss of it's equipment (Additionally, "capacity", so possibly this means limbs). The pet the item is used on does not get penalized.
Use the spindle on the pet.
A soul spindle of (pet name) will appear on the ground. You can pass to your heir by keeping it in your inventory when you make a gene file.
Go to the Showroom.
Bring up the menu and press F8, you do not need an internet connection.
Bring the spindle that appeared back to the showroom to get your pet back.
Using the Tamer's whip will bring up a menu now rather than just toggling a pet's status. You can individually set whether they will pick up things on the ground, or if they will eat things on the ground.
Handing over the whip apparently has something to do with the (new?) custom tone section txtDiscipline2 (or txtInsult2 whichever replaced the first one). Additionally, the wooden horse has some effect when combined with the whip as well, but it's not decipherable.
The Squeeze ability allows "forced sleep sharing" (rape).
The ability must be used when sleepy, and above a bed on the ground. The bed must be a King, double, or happy bed.
The degree of success depends on your relationship with the character. Under soul-mate causes a big (-20) karma hit.
No actual positive effect of this is noticeable.
The sleep will be "so-so", and will not allow for potential gain.
[Fixes]
Notation fixed in several places.
Prevented the blunt special skill from being invoked when shooting a Crossbow.
Pets will automatically switch to offensive mode when entered in the pet arena.
Ranged pets in the arena will attack even if the enemy is not at optimum range, preventing running in circles endlessly.
(Google translate says: Fixed damage is not out in robbery events during sleep.. However, this may have something to do with a nighttime ambush of robbers that are your level. Needs some checking because this wasn't in the previous patch)
Fixed gauge from becoming 0 when attacking with a sickle at 100 percent gauge.
Prevented fishing in the lava map tiles.
-

Gauge-related skills have been given a boost, allowing you to drain 50% of the gauge of all adjacent enemies in exchange for up to half your MP, with a small chance of causing fear.
Added a repeating crossbow.
Wild boars and specific NPCs on the verge of dying can use a Rampage skill. This will up their strength, speed and dexterity while allowing free use of the Swarm action.
A wetlands area has been added to the South (ed: of Tyris I guess?).
Pets recover a large amount of health upon evolution.
(ed: very uncertain about this one) Targeting an enemy with a skill will cause pets to also target that enemy with theirs.
Items are now used after selecting their targets, not before. The example given is not consuming a throwing item if you cancel target selection. (ed: Hopefully this will apply to scrolls of identify, too. God damn but I've wasted a ton of those.)
1.23's Breakfast Event gives a pet ten times the XP it did previously.
Fixes:
Doubled the power of the staff special skill.
Fixed NPCs stopping you from cutting down trees while eating.

v1.59---bit of a doozy and then some back 8)
[Changes and additions]
Added 3 floors of content to Act III main quest.
300x500 full-body portraits (black is transparent) can now be selected for pets in their respective conversation windows. Another portrait can be designated for Form Shift.
You can have 4 different versions of the full-body portrait, and which portrait gets displayed depends on the situation. It takes a lot of effort to make different versions of a portrait, so it's possible that I won't create any more conditions.
This is to strengthen the feeling of having a loyal partner throughout your adventures.
I'd like to create something else in the future that also uses these portraits.
Details on how to use it can be found in help.txt in the user folder because it's rather lengthy.
Sense Object no longer lasts for 2 seconds, but instead lasts until you press the enter or space keys. Now you can look for all you like, and it will also work if anime_wait is 0. Take a look at the [words at the] bottom right of the window before worrying about why everything is frozen.
Tentatively added a new facility to the Act III continent.
Added 3 unique NPCs for Act III.
Added 1 unique artifact.
Added 4 high-level quicklings. They are all unique in their own way.
Changed the sprite for quicklings so that they face to the front because it was hard to tell whether it was a face or a hand on the old sprite. You can now tell that they are a type of dwarf.
Changed the cMetal bit flag so that it only reduces regular physical attacks now. They usually get killed before they kill the player, so this should be reasonable.
To be honest, I've always wondered if having the equivalent of 4 times the health and having armor that resists magic was too much, so cArmor bit flag has also been changed to reduce only regular physical attacks.
Increased the attributes for armor race.
Gave metalslug cMetal bit flag for real. Existing metalslugs will have their cArmor swapped for this when their stats are recalculated.
Buffed starting magic resistance of metal race.
When a spell levels up, its potential will decrease by a greater amount now. (Makes it harder to level spells by spamming them in a short window of time.)
Spells can now be trained at wizards (the identifier) in towns. Each course will give a lot of experience to a different set of spells. (Wish and Harvest cannot be trained.) This does not consume any spell stock, so this makes it possible to train spells that are hard to obtain.
Capped the enhances your spells equipment attribute effect at 2x. Equipment attribute strength will also be proportionally harder to increase (i.e. if you've already reached the cap now, then you'll still be at the cap after the update.)
As Casting skill of NPCs increases, spell power will increase more now.
Changed how an Act II sub quest increased Luck. If potential is below 300%, it increases potential by 80-100% at random. If it's 300% or above, then it gives Luck attribute experience.
Yerleswood type M (the mass-produced model) now has a sprite that makes it look mass-produced. This does not affect existing NPCs.
Added a new special action.
Converge Breath damage now depends on Magic and not Magic Control skill.
Added 2 red books.
There will now be a coffin of necromancy and some other things in Lumiest graveyard.
Prevented overflow when selling items.
The conversation windows in cutscenes will no longer display impress, attract, and anniversary.
Potions that are easily obtainable in large amounts like snow and dyes will no longer increase Alchemy and Magic Device. I was wondering if it should also apply to alcohols.
Reduced quest points, experience, and gold gained from performing, preaching, and using Fascination Dance on summoned NPCs. They also no longer throw items at you.
The chance of having a physical attack hit the target that is independent of the characters' statuses (i.e. lucky hits) now depends on the attacker's Luck attribute.
NB: Probably the chance of landing a hit even with extremely low hit rate or if the target has extremely high evade.
Number of gold pieces obtained from Mad Millionaire random event now increases with the player's Luck.
Statue of Kumiromi has reduced the chance of generating herb seeds to a 50% chance and the artifact seed has a 16.66% chance to be generated.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Upon closer inspection, item sales at the default player's shop had a 7/8 chance of getting cancelled, so the cancellation chance for specialized shops has been changed to 1/2.
Made 4-Dimensional mirror unusable on the world map.
Fixed some special actions being unable to target enemies who are barely in range.
Fixed special abilities granted by non-AP feats getting displayed in the list when you change equipment after hiding them.
When an adventurer has an item that is not a weapon equipped in his hands, it will now automatically get corrected.
[Additional main quest content]
Placed Neres (listed below) and <Melget> the informer on F27 of the Cradle of Chaos. They do not revive when killed.
Cutscene on F28. Larnneire, Lomias, and Rianna get placed in Ulm-Leson after the event.
Placed Shuraida and mercenary NPCs on F29. They do not revive when killed.
F30 is inaccessible for now.
[New NPCs]
<Ryutye> the amnesiac
Level 2 mazin. Will rarely use Space retention.
<Neres> the amnesiac
Level 169 imp. Temper bit flag. Shadow Step, Insult, Clash Rush, and only when in melee range, Smash Ground. Spawns equipped with the Zugaikurai listed below.
<Rianna> the daydreamer
Level 18 norland. Her class displayed is Handyman, but she's actually a thief. Has an extremely low chance of using Browbeat. Has a low chance of using Tag Force if gauge is 50% or above whether she's in a tag team or not.
hellstling
Level 150 quickling. Not suitable for riding. Nether resistance. Class displayed is assassin, but is really a thief. Mist of Darkness. Blade Strings when in melee range.
stormbling
Level 106 quickling. Not suitable for riding. Chaos resistance. Eye of Mana, Nether Breath. Uses Blade Turbulence if the target is not bleeding.
grass killer
Level 81 quickling. Not suitable for riding and has cImmune bit flag. Corpse has no effect. Prioritizes movement. Shining Wave. Occasionally uses Suicide Attack.
grass dancer
Level 49 quickling. Not suitable for riding and has cImmune bit flag. Corpse has no effect. Moves randomly. Eye of Illusion. Occasionally uses Fascination Dance.
[New item]
<Zugaikurai>
Precious artifact hammer. Randomly generated in high-level areas.
[New special action]
Extermination Breath
Is basically Variable Breath, but does additional fixed damage depending on Control Magic skill, and affects a much, much larger area. It's still a breath attack though, so Charge Attack and equipment attributes that enhance breath attacks will affect it. Learned by the player during level up if the fire-breathing feat has been acquired, Constitution is 80 or above, and Control Magic is 40 or above.
[Magic practice]
Sorcier practice [Attack spells] (NB: sic) - gives experience to dart- and bolt-type attack spells.
Warlock practice [Advanced attack spells] - gives experience to ball-type attack spells and to Meteor.
Enchanter practice [Buff spells] - gives experience to buff and debuff spells.
Healer practice [Healing spells] - gives experience to healing, resurrection, and uncurse spells.
Shaman practice [Special spells] - gives experience to spells related to nature and to the divine, like summoning spells, spells with tile-lingering effects, Oracle, and Domination.
Mage practice [Detection spells] - gives experience to spells related to movement and knowledge of the surroundings, such as teleport and revealing spells.
NB: The descriptions in the [brackets] are present in the Japanese language version, but not in English.
I've tried to have an equal number of spells in each category and to make each category make sense. Course titles are more or less flavour text for role-playing purposes. Cost depends on the level of the spells in that category with a lower limit of 5 and upper limit of 15.
This is to make it easier to become a spell-caster in early game, as well as to alleviate the problem where spell levels don't increase unless the player spams them.
The amount of spell experience given is fixed, so it's best to attend the practice with high potential in as many spells in that category as you can.
There is no chance of bonus experience from Learning attribute. Of course, if you don't know the spell, then it won't have any effect.
I considered a system where spells are leveled using an item that is randomly generated in dungeons, but that meant that physical-attack classes would master spells at the same rate as mages. That lead to the creation of this system, where spells basically compete with combat skills in resources. The cost of practices and the amount of experience given is subject to balancing.
[New pregnancies]
sunbararian -> sunbararian
giant eater flower -> man eater flower
heqet -> musical notadpole
camouflaged imp -> camouflaged imp
[Changes and additions]
Special actions can be hidden with the '*' key. It will still work while hidden, so you can still use it by pressing the shortcut key assigned to it. The '/' key will make all hidden special actions visible again and works separately for the special actions and wide actions tabs.
Increased player's range of sight by 1 tile.
Sense Objects now has the additional effect of allowing you to see through walls and doors for 2 seconds. Now you will know what lies ahead, and any terrain that was revealed during this will remain unshrouded. Can't say that this is an inferior version of Magic Map any more, can you? Use it to gain an advantage before heading into dungeon rooms or when there are a lot of obstacles.
NB: Will not work in 1.58 if anime_wait in config.txt is "0".
2 floors worth of new content in Act III main quest.
3 new high-level NPCs for each of the Elea and Zanan races.
Added 2 new unique artifacts.
Added an item for changing height and another for weight.
Nurse, <Mad scientist>, <Icolle>, and <Mary> will start off with Gene engineer skill.
Changed nurse sprite.
Act I last boss's sprite has been altered to matched his portrait.
Added an intermediary sprite for older wolf sister (NB: evolved older dog sister). (This will not affect characters that have already been evolved.)
Equipment attributes on godly equipment are now one step stronger.
Artifact staves will no longer gain random magic-type equipment attributes.
Stones (including Vanilla Rock) now have an equipment attribute that increases Throwing skill. Behold, the true power of rock throwing.
Magic ammos used to cause damage of a random element; it will now always cause a critical attack on top of that.
Shopkeepers in your shop can be made to gain a large amount of potential of their Negotiation skill and Charisma attribute. Reinstated 1/32 chance of cancelling a sale for specialized shops.
Failing a certain sub quest the first time will allow you to receive the reward the second time you complete it. If you already have the artifact, it will still be rewarded during the first completion of the quest after upgrading to this version.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Fixed being able to show your cards even without a deck in a sub quest.
Fixed crash resulting from using eye-type gauge attack. (This is not the same fix as the previous version.)
Fixed experience received when attacking with Blade Strings special action being off by a factor of 10.
[Additional main quest content]
Mid-boss battle on F25 of Cradle of Chaos. There will be a lot of regular monsters (with the Cradle's level boost). On top of that, if the <Lankata> listed below is alive, enemies map-wide will occasionally be buffed by Cheer and those with gauge below 50% will gain 10% gauge. This should make it pretty difficult, but you don't really have to defeat the enemies. The staircase is unlocked, so you can just make a beeline for F26 without killing anything. If you defeat <Lankata> here, he will be marked as defeated, and that will change the events that occur in the future. (That said, it won't affect what items you'll get or anything like that.) When defeated, the zanan enhanced soldier and lothrian agent listed below will be placed in Amur-Cage. There will be a cutscene on F26. F27 is inaccessible for now.
[New NPCs]
zanan enhanced soldier
Level 152 zanan. Squeeze. Draw Shadow. On low health, Super Regene.
Is not randomly generated.
zanan old soldier
Level 113 zanan. Shadow Step. When MP is sufficient and target's gauge is above 50%, uses Pressure.
killer nurse
Level 61 zanan.
<Lankata> the lightning of blue
Level 168 elea. Mist of Dazzling, melee wait, and rarely Fire a volley. Healing Rain on low health.
lothrian agent
Level 122 elea. Slow. On low health, Cure of Jua.
Is not randomly generated.
dark elea
Level 78 elea. Gravity Sphere, Mist of Darkness, Nightmare, Darkness Bolt, Chaos Eye. On low health, Heal Critical.
[New items]
soup of wonderland
When eaten, height becomes the average of current height and 150 cm, and weight becomes the average of current weight and 40kg.
Blessed, cursed soup has the same effects. This item is for people would like to return their bodies to a somewhat more human form.
Dropped by little girl upon death. Is also rarely randomly generated.
<Dokuro-Mikaduki>
Artifact skull bow. Randomly generated.
<Heltiarre>
Artifact short bow. Equipped by the aforementioned Lankata.
[New equipment attribute]
It enchances your throwing rock.
Staves may come with this attribute. Equipping multiple of these will have no additional effect.
Each of the distance multipliers gets +05 to it, and when attacking, the pierce will increase to 70%.
When an attack affected by this attribute lands, it will have a dull sound effect.
Stones were weak, had no additional effects, and you had to go through a lot of trouble just to change their material, so this is a buff just for it.
The drawback is that the attribute appears only on melee weapons. This does not affect the power of rocks thrown at a poor performer.
As for why staves, one explanation is that you can use the long staff as a bat, the whip as a slingshot, or the staff as a slingstaff/lacrosse stick to fling rocks at enemies.
It should be fairly reasonable, because in real-life history, slings were a rather formidable weapon capable of inflicting lethal injuries against armored opponents, and had a longer effective distance than bows. It is not a joke weapon.
Feel free to use it to roleplay a shepherd, or change the sprite and roleplay some ball sport.

continued:
[Changes and additions]
Made it possible to name your deeds with a house board or a register, except your house and the maid mansion. The name will then be displayed on the bottom left just like your house. It will also show up if it's a showroom map.
The type of shop that you own can be changed. It's similar to expanding the shop in that it will cost money. Items that are not compatible with the shop type will not sell at all, but compatible items will sell for more, and sell more quickly. For example, food shops will sell food items very easily. This and the above change make roleplaying a shopkeeper much easier - not that this was the reason for the change.
Cold damage deals more damage on wet targets. The multiplier is higher than the one for lightning damage.
Precious equipment will no longer come with random equipment attributes. To make up for that, made godly equipment come with more attributes.
Doing melee attacks when equipped with a shield will give Shield skill experience.
Reduced the casting penalty from equipping a shield from 12% to 5%.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Made it possible to wish for secret characters in the English version.
NB: "secretcharacter"
Fixed English map name for Harvest Time quests.
Fixed a version 1.56 unique NPC having a higher level than it should, due to the Cradle of Chaos bonus.
Fixed characters equipped with nothing causing a crash with an error, when they used certain gauge attacks.
Fixed spamming Multiple Gather causing a crash with an error.
[Shop types]
The goods shop. Default. Works the same as previous versions.
The food shop. Will sell only food items. Final selling price has x 2 modifier.
The magic shop. Will sell only scrolls, spellbooks, and rods. Final selling price has x 2.5 modifier.
The blacksmith. Will sell only equipment. Final selling price has x 2 modifier.
The inn shop. Will sell only containers and potions. Final selling price has x 3 modifier.
The default shop has a 1/8 chance of cancelling the sale of an item. The food shop and the rest of the new shop types, however, do not have this chance of cancelling. Number of items sold remains random.
[Changes and additions]
Five additional floors worth of main quest in Act III.
Added 6 high-level members to the Shell race including 1 unique NPC. Added 1 evolution pattern.
Added one new artifact and unique NPC.
Added 2 special actions. Made the detection-type feats grant a special action instead.
Added two gaze-type special actions. Added a feat that will confer one of them.
Added gauge attacks that trigger with gaze-type attacks other than Eye of brainwashing.
Modified medusa, euryale, stheno, and cockatrice's AIs. Only the newly-generated NPCs will experience this change.
Worshipping changes
Doubled the effect of the passive ability from worshipping Mani.
The ability from Opatos has been made to affect more than physical damage.
Yacatect's ability will now also increase the drop rate of regular items.
Speed increase and speed cap for worshipping Lulwy also increased.
Added 20% of max health to the formula for Prayer of Jure, but only for the player.
Reduced stamina recovery from worshipping Kumiromi recover 1 sp/2 turns.
Changed stamina recovery from 2 sp/10 turns to 2 sp/4 turns.
Made it so that Mist of Silence effect will not show up even when out of sight.
Changed mana battery calculation. Increased the amount of spell stock gained, and made it display how much stock was gained or if mana was recovered.
Changed harpy race's second leg slot to a back slot.
When the sum of "chance of extra ranged/melee attack" enchants and the bonus from Dual Wield skill reaches a certain amount, extra attacks become guaranteed. Changed it to make the extra attacks somewhat random.
Added a sound effect that plays when entering a floor with a Big Daddy in it.
Prevented empty items from showing up in the list of things to (o)pen. You can now open containers by spamming the shortcut key assigned to them.
Dyes will now have their color code after their name to help differentiate between similar colors. (It will not display when unidentified.)
Magistus, trismagistus, skull sword, and violent skull sword will display the skill level at which they were made.
When the player successfully uses the special action Bewitch on friendly NPCs, money will be received. They will not give any more money when they are no longer interested, and you receive less than if you had used prostitution. It's low-risk and low-return; it takes only 1 turn, the NPCs do not need to be drunk, and there is no risk of Sickness. It's for roleplaying a beggar, when you need money, and when you just want to siphon money off them and remain chaste.
Summoned undead will no longer start sleeping in towns at night.
Characters that die to fire damage will no longer start a fire. Items on the ground will still burn without a magatama.
High level adventurers and god NPCs will have their attributes reduced to 1/5 instead of 1/6. This should fix the bug where the values were not rounded off properly, making the values go weird.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Fixed Shining Wave having a water sound effect.
Fixed message displayed when stepping on essential oil and gasoline puddles. Gasoline puddles generated in a previous version will display as and act like essential oil though.
Fixed a variable in alchemy rain not functioning as it should and causing bugged experience gain.
Made a sub quest added in 1.55 recognize when the year changes.
NB: Sophia's quest.
Made duel opponents not capturable with monster balls and little balls.
Made maximum HP/MP not overflow.
Fixed critical hit damage multiplier using Martial Arts not going above 1.
Extra attacks should proc less the more arms the character has - the modifier wasn't working, and it's fixed now.
Fixed the bonus skill selected during character creation disappearing if the game is closed without saving right after the opening scene. Can't guarantee that it'll work properly if you quit before the dialogue in the beginning though.
When NPCs duplicate rods with alchemy, they are no longer stacked into the player's inventory. Remaining charges on stacks of rods will also no longer increase.
When summoned undead defeat an enemy, allies tagged to the player will now be able to receive AP (albeit a reduced amount) if they are eligible.
Fixed tagged NPCs not reflecting their speed changes due to buffs.
Fixed high level NPCs having an overflow in experience and gaining the amount overflowed.
Fixed quest givers' names going weird in the journal when the player is in another floor of the town.
[Changes affecting only the English version - an *unofficial* list]

dark dome
Level 161 shell. Floats. Acid Ground, Shadow Step, Gravity Sphere.

[New artifact]
<AA-12 Advance>
Equipped by the aforementioned <Manytia>.
[Changes to feats and new special actions]
Strings Assassin
Replaces detection-type feats.
Grants the special action Blade Strings.
Target the skill in one of the four directions.
If target is not self, deals damage dependent on Tactics and Dexterity.
Usage gives Tactics experience. Damage is reduced by target's PV and Constitution.
If target's HP is less than 1/9 of max, then invoke Decapitation.
If target is under the effect of Bind, then deal bleed damage depending on Tactics skill.
If target is self, then a wire trap is set at that position.
Placing and removing wire traps will not give any experience to Disarm Trap.
Wire traps will deal damage depending on the floor you are on and on the target's Speed.
That damage is reduced by PV, and floating characters will not set them off.
Traps disappear after being set off once.
This may not be the trap battle system I said I was going to make.
Dancing Wire special action
If you have the above Strings feat and 40 or more Tactics, you will learn this at your next level up.
Causes 3 turns of Bind and Draw Shadow.
Magic Eye
New feat. Grants Eye of Mana.
Eye of Illusion special action
If you have the Magic Eye feat above and 20 or more Control Magic, you will learn this at your next level up.
Deals mind damage depending on Magic and Will stats.
Eye of Stiffen special action
Deals nerve damage depending on Magic and Will stats, and will also increase the target's defense.
The increase in defense lasts for 3 turns.
Reduction of defense by Pulverization, melee weapon, and the equipment attributes on them, and Panzerfaust X will overwrite this increase in defense. (Overwrite, not negate!)
This special action has its drawbacks, but it deals enough damage, and the status effects have enough power to make up for it.
[Changes to AI]
Medusa will now use Magic Dart, Eye of Stiffen, melee wait, and maintain a distance of 2.
Euryale will now use Eye of Illusion.
Stheno will now use Eye of Dimness.
Cockatrice will now use Eye of Stiffen instead of Touch of Nerve. Maintains distance of 3.
[New gauge attack]
Mind Break
Deals nerve and mind damage dependent on enchant level of equipment and Magic and Will stats.
Also deals MP damage.
Also increases target's sanity by the same amount as Eye of Insanity.
Also causes the same amount of Dim as Eye of Dimness.
Also causes the target to vomit.
Unique NPCs and characters immune to dim will be unaffected by dim and insanity.
[Randomness of additional melee/ranged attacks]
Before this version, extra attacks proc when strength of the equipment attribute > a random number between 0-99 + modifier.
In this version, extra attacks will now proc if 2 * equipment attribute strength + 1 > a random number between 0-99 + modifier.
The probability that an extra attack will proc increases with the equipment attribute strength, towards 100%, but it will never be guaranteed.
The equipment attribute is also multiplied by 2 in the calculation now, so you will see more extra attacks, even with low level equipment attributes.
By the way, Warrior and Gunner classes have +5 to the chance of doing the first extra attack.
[Changes affecting only the English version - an *unofficial* list]
Silent Ocean flavor text changed from "You're all alone." to "An expanse of ocean and fog spreads out.".
<Siraha> the black cloth renamed as <Kuron> the black cloth, <Kuron> the white cloth renamed as <Siraha> the white cloth.
Changes made to sex and forbidden meat?
Changes to the message displayed when rod/scroll of uncursed is used.
Yith Rank enemy encounters are now named as such instead of being a duplicate Dragon Rank.
The second Apocalypse ancient book has been renamed as True Apocalypse.
Changes to juice, milk, and coffee item naming convention and grammar?
"You have no gag reflex." in the profile has been changed to "Your jokes are terrible.".
-
The Continuing~
[Changes and additions]
Added a side quest to part III. (Sophia's.) You may want to turn on the minute display in the log in the game settings when you're doing this quest.
NB: Options -> message log (f) -> first option
Made a slight change to how the reward is given in an existing part III side quest. (Urcaguary's.)
Added a precious item that can temporarily change the element of Variable Storm and Variable Breath. If it's an element not compatible with the spell or breath, then nothing will happen. Made it available from the small medal shop so that it's available right from part I, and so that people who don't want it don't have to get it.
Added 8 high-level seamonsters and 1 evolution.
Allowed selection of 1 skill in addition to the class and race during character creation. The selected skill will start at level 10. If it's a skill that isn't level 0 for the class or race, then 9 will be added to the starting level. It's similar to the ability system you see in TRPGs.
Feats: changed the arm wrestling feat to Run Wildry skill. Two more skills have been added, and the sexy and martial artist-type feats have been swapped with them. From this version on, the stat-increase feats will be gradually exchanged for feats that give abilities and passive effects that can be used for roleplaying.
Made it so that equipment skill (light, medium, and heavy) protects from damage dealt by proximity assist and interlocking shooting mechanism equipment attributes. The damage reduction is capped at skill level 500.
Adjusted NPC adventurers' starting level and fame, and their hiring price. Hiring price is now reduced with affection level. Their profile will also be generated randomly, and they won't prefer to stay in North Tyris any more.
NPC adventurers can be recruited as an ally after hiring him 1 time, as opposed to 3 times before. Adventurers above level 300 will be weakened when they are recruited as allies.
Added 1 policy for governing towns. It won't show up until the prerequisites are met.
About the replacement for the alias voting system:
Voting can now be done in towns where there has been a werewolf attack. When the player has voted and is in town at 12 noon, the NPC with the most votes will be executed. (If more than 1 NPC shares the top vote, 1 of them will be picked.) So go kill the one that you have your eye on (for his items). Execution will increase the player's influence in the town whether the person was a werewolf or not.
Altered the werewolf option in conversations. Picking it will cause the affection level to slightly lower, but more votes will go to that NPC. This can be done any time from after the werewolf attack till the player checks the ballot box.
Undead can be tethered to you with a leash like your pets, and will warp to you when they are too far away. Brainwashing no longer affects them.
Dragon zombie has been changed to predator class.
Increased the effectiveness of all aspects of necro remodel.
Necro force HP and MP consumption halved. Added the option to make them gather around you without returning them to their coffins.
When a summoned undead monster defeats an enemy, AP is earned by the player and is based off the player's INI.
Summoned undead will not act as summoned undead inside showrooms.
Added Fury side-effect to Run Wildry status to give it the double-edged sword feel. If the player uses the skill, he will also be confused for a short duration in addition to that.
Set the upper limit of Holy Shield and Feather DV/PV bonus to 1000 to make unbuffed DV and PV more important. The 10% increase part will remain the same for now. Increased the gain in turns the buffs are active for.
Gauge attacks will not activate for proc-type enchants that give attack magic or breath.
Relaxed material requirements for making monster balls. Max level for monster balls set to 200. Monster balls will also not be more than 10 levels higher than lowest dungeon floor cleared.
When the player eats "Uh-uh, the taste is so so" or "The taste is not bad" food or better, stamina recovers by enchant level * 1.5 + food tier. This was added as a way to recover stamina and as a reason for the player to eat high-quality cooked food.
Carpentry tool item has been renamed to tools, and its description has been changed.
MP Breath is now affected by the equipment attribute that increases breath damage. It will still not be affected by Charge Attack for now
Reduced SP consumption of breath-type actions.
[Fixes]
Fixed some of the descriptions.
Fixed characters in main quest part III not talking.
Influence level in town will be saved, and will no longer reset when starting up Elona.
Cut-scene added in 1.54 no longer replays every time the player enters the floor.
Score no longer overflows. Upper limit is now more or less capped at 100 million. With 20 times the score in no future mode, the limit is 2 billion.
Coffins that are stashed into your graveyard key when you don't have enough space in your inventory will no longer lose their necro remodel effect.
Fixed number and weight of gifts, proofs of friendship, and chocolate going weird after gifting them.
[New Act III sub quest]
Clear it just by talking to the NPC from 14:30 - 14:59 on the indicated day.
Only the darkness staff will be awarded when clearing the quest for the first time.
From the second time onwards, the quest reward changes depending on the time you talk to her:
14:30 - 14:39 to receive the jewel tear of god for darkness bolt invoke
14:40 - 14:49 to receive the jewel tear of god for elemental scar invoke
14:50 - 14:59 to receive the jewel tear of god that increases spell power
She tell you to come back "in a moment" but will actually ask you to come in a month, because a month's time is but a moment for a god who has lived for about a million years.
[Changes to how Urcaguary's reward is given]
The reward now changes depending on the time the quest is completed.
0:00 - 5:59 to receive the jewel tear of god for Gravity Sphere invoke
6:00 - 11:59 to receive the jewel tear of god that deals magic damage
12:00 - 17:59 to receive the jewel tear of god for absolute piercing attack
18:00 - 23:59 to receive the jewel tear of god for the remote blow enchant
[New artifact]
Elements Eyes
Choose an element from a list and applies it to all allies within sight.
That element will then be treated as if it had the highest resist value. There will be no change in the actual resistance.
The number of ways it can be used are limited, but depending on the situation, it could be quite powerful if you change elements and inflict their respective status effects.
The effect wears off from everyone after sleep (it is unaffected by the sleep status effect).
While it is in effect, it won't return to your attribute's element.
(After waking up, using the attributes again will return it to your original element.)
NB: Typo here? "Using the Elements Eyes again"?
It's colored to look like one of the items that you can use to transform yourself like in the TV shows.
The original design was kind of gross, and was pretty disgusting when you looked at it a little more closely.
I might add more skills that are affected by this later on.
[New characters]
sea fallen angel
level 158 seamonster. Float, invisible.
Gravity Sphere, Power Breath, Psychic Wave, Eye of Insanity.
nine dart garfish
level 139 seamonster. Float, Clash Rush.
orcinus orca
level 128 seamonster. Float. Player-homing AI.
Shadow Step, Voracity Fang, Nether Breath.
manta rayarn
level 100 seamonster. Float, neutral.
Web, Lightning Bolt.
flower coral
level 90 seamonster. Neutral. Does not move even in combat.
Random color. Silent Ocean, Draw Shadow, Melee idle.
NB: Melee idle is move ID -3. Does melee attack if target is range=1, else nothing. I don't know the English name for this. This seems to be a feature from vanilla Elona.
abysstar
level 70 seamonster. Water Bolt, Provoke.
flight fish
level 40 seamonster. Float. Shadow Step, Suspicious Hand, Scavenge.
gunfish
level 15 seamonster. Float. Short Teleport.
[New evolution pattern]
Gunfish evolves to zap gunfish with machine heart, learns Fire a volley.
[Adjustment to NPC adventurers' starting level, fame, and hiring fee]
Limited starting level to 250. Made the increase in hiring fee less steep, and capped at 99999 gp.
Made it easier to meet them and reduced the number of times you have to hire them.
[Expansion of werewolf voting system]
The number of votes are slightly random, but more votes will go to NPCs that you have determined to be a werewolf via conversation or that are currently hostile.
If there are no NPCs that are alive and have at least 1 vote, the execution will not take place.
Executions will do 44444 damage, so it is possible for an NPC to survive it.
This is different from the executions that were in game in that your fame will not rise, but items will drop.
If there are no werewolf attacks, then voting will not occur.
So if you are after NPC drops, then you may want play such that no harm comes to the werewolves.
When it is time to vote, you can buy the revival of right to vote with authority points.
This is under the "Policy implementation" option in town management.
[Feat changes and new special abilities]
Uncontrollable power
Replaces the arm-wresting feats. Gives the special action Uncontroll.
I probably don't need to explain this, but how this works is that if you don't already have the buff when using Uncontroll, you will gain the buff and a status effect.
If you already have the buff, it will use either Shadow Step and Swarm depending on your distance to the enemy.
It uses more SP than those actions by themselves, but Fury+Swarm would be ridiculous in early-game.
Jiu-jitsu
Replaces the martial arts feats. Gives the special action Vindalian Jiu-jitsu.
When used, Vindalian Jiu-jitsu switches you between Jiu-jitsu and normal mode.
In Jiu-jitsu mode, the text for martial arts usage will be changed to throws, and the enemy's defense will use depend on their DV and Light Armor skill.
The effect of Squeeze will change. Damage will depend on Dexterity and the Martial Arts skill, and will also Bind the enemy for 1 extra turn, but the user will also be under the effect of Bind for 1 turn.
There's more to martial arts roleplaying than physical blows.
Characters that will now use Vindalian Jiu-jitsu:
<Mary> the insect master
ultimate golem
<Arma> the tour guide
The above NPCs have a chance to switch to Jiu-jitsu mode if the enemy's PV is higher than the DV by 100.
If the enemy's DV>PV by 100, then there is a chance that these NPCs will disable Jiu-jitsu mode.
Sexy Dance
Replaces the sexy feats. Gives (W)ide special action Fascination Dance.
Fascination Dance causes 4 turns to pass, after which the user's Charisma will be rolled against the Will of each enemy in sight.
It will not work against blinded, sleeping, and unconscious characters, undead summoned via necromancy, and bored characters.
If the roll succeeds, it inflicts 1 turn of paralysis.
This is the AOE and vulnerable version of Bewitch that also prevents the enemy's gauge from increasing.
If used during Party Time!, it will take 2/3 of the number of turns performing takes, and award you with more points than performing, but you will receive less money and no items.
Characters that will now use Fascination Dance:
butterspy
soul bee (evolved wasp)
pixie
<Karavika>
necro dancer
NB: soul bee may not be the actual name
-
...
[Changes and additions]
Added a bit of content to Act III main quest.
Added 1 precious artifact and 1 unique NPC to Act III.
Added 1 red book.
Added 4 new items.
Added 2 item fusion recipes.
Added 2 Wide special actions. One of them is for NPC use only.
Added 2 new water spells. They are very weak but are non-elemental. They will be effective against targets that have high magic resistance, but be sure not to accidentally hit any enemies with Swimming skill. These spells will always make the affected targets wet. They will also wash away any tile-lingering effects (fires, spider webs, etc) within their area of effect.
Added the Oil status ailment. When affected by Oil, fire-elemental damage will do 1.75 times as much damage. Oiled targets cannot be Wet. Characters that are already Wet can get Oil status, and in this case they will be able to have both status ailments at the same time. The upside to this is that PV and DV will be 1.3 times the base value. Recovered with the passage of time, prayer, and <Vernis Original>.
Characters hit by molotov, snow, bottle of sulfuric, and tomato no longer get wet.
Increased damage done by molotov and bottle of sulfuric. They now also will do more damage when blessed.
Changed the repertoire of the 3 potion-throwing special actions. The types of potions thrown by each has been rearranged so that they're easier to use and understand.
When one character in a tag team gets wet, the tag partner will now also get wet. However, both members of a tag team need to be holding a magaqua for that item to have an effect. If the player is riding, the steed will now also get wet as well.
Damage of MP Breath special action is now reduced by magic resistance. It no longer costs gauge, and the MP cost has been halved.
The chance that breath attacks causes a status ailment was a fixed low value (while the chance for spells to cause one is not fixed and has no upper limit), so this chance will now increase with the user's Constitution and resistance [towards the breath's element]. (It's still lower than for spells and has an upper limit though.)
Pets in defence mode that have been handed a rod will no longer zap them. (Both attack and support type rods.)
Big Daddies will now drop their Little Sisters when defeated by your summoned undead.
Looked over the starting parameters of towns. (Only those on the City Chart.) Most of the parameters have been unchanged. Being able to manage towns will come sometime in the future.
You will now get praise/authority points for successfully completing quests in a town, and the number of points awarded depends on the quest difficulty. (For escort and delivery quests, points are awarded for the destination town.) When you have 2000 points or more, talking to the town elder will let you manage the town in his stead. That's all that there is for now. For Melugas, you have to clear a sub quest as well in order to do that.
Carpentry skill has been renamed as Crafting because the latter does not have as narrow a definition as the former. (NB: Name remains unchanged in English version.)
[Fixes]
Fixed being unable to switch between putting in and taking out items of 4-Dimensional Pocket if used after giving gifts, tokens of friendship, and chocolate. These items can also now be handed over one after another.
Fixed Shadow Step not registering as an attack when used by the player against a character with the same character ID number as the quest giver (even when on a different map as the quest giver), if the player teleports towards the quest giver with the quest board. This persisted until the game was closed once.
Fixed Clash Rush special action deducting HP penalty for usage from the wrong characters.
Money received for clearing a random dungeon no longer overflows.
[New spells]
Water Bolt
Bolt spell without an element. Has a spellbook. Damage + wet status. Clears map effects within its area of effect.
<Abyss Princess> now uses this spell instead of Crystal Spear.
Bubble Storm
Ball spell without an element. Has a corresponding stave (which cannot be crafted). Damage + wet status. Clears map effects within its area of effect.
Basatan now uses this spell instead of Ice Ball.
[New (W)ide special actions]
Silent Ocean
Converts a large area of tiles (up to but not including ID 350) into water panels. Clears map effects within its area of effect.
Characters within its area of effect will also be inflicted with Mist of Silence with a set spell power. Characters not floating or under the effects of Gravity will be inflicted with Wet status.
Dimensional Fishing
Prerequisite: Level up with 30 or more Fishing skill.
Draws a hostile enemy on the map to you, and gives Fishing experience.
Requires neither fishing rod nor bait. It will work even if you are surrounded by walls.
The order in which NPCs will be drawn towards you is set, and will not change even if you load a save.
As long as the NPC who has been drawn to you with Dimensional Fishing is still alive, the next NPC may not be drawn.
This is basically Draw Shadow that ignores your range of sight, so it will fail if the target cannot teleport.
Useful for killing the targets one at a time, or when you can't find the enemy during a hunting quest.
[New items]
atomic launcher
Aim it at the cell you want to fire it into and use it. Its power depends on Marksman, Carpentry, and Disarm Trap skill levels.
It ignores defense, but if the three skills above are at low level, it won't be any better than a nuke.
This will be considered an attack, so it will cause karma loss and Barrier feat activation.
It is not affected by Magic Control, but shooting it at the very limit of its range (which is out of sight) will prevent the user from taking damage.
It will not cause the karma loss that is intrinsic to nuke usage, and will not count towards completion of Noel's quest, but it will count towards the nuke counter in the journal.
Unlike the Cat's Cradle (the regular nuke), it will also destroy all wall tiles within its area of effect. Good for when you need breathing space.
Is not generated randomly. The only way to obtain it is through item fusion.
M202 special
Aim it at the cell you want to fire it into and use it. Its power depends on Marksman, Constitution, and fire resistance.
It sets a larger area on fire than the Fire Wall spell, and the fires will last longer.
The user will not be damaged by it. After the damage calculation, the target is afflicted by a short duration of Element Scar.
You can put it to good use when hunting undead or as a debuffing tool... or you could go nuts with it and burn everything down. Like Fire Wall, it will not be affected by magatama.
Generated rarely.
Panzerfaust X
If no target is selected, it will select one automatically and fire.
Single-target damage that depends on Marksman and Perception.
The target's PV will be lowered for 3 of the target's turns, and recover by 100 per turn.
It ignores cMetal and cArmour bit flags.
Generated rarely.
<Sasanqua Sickle>
Precious chain sickle.
The Kunoichi below will carry it.
Trades damage for invokes and accuracy.
gasoline
When drunk by or dowsed on a character, causes confusion (of lower strength than a potion of confusion) and a long-lasting duration of Oil status. Works with Alchemical Rain. Randomly generated.
essential oil
When drunk by or dowsed on a character, causes confusion (of even lower strength than gasoline) and a short-lasting duration of Oil status. Works with Alchemical Rain. Rarely randomly generated.
Might be used in aroma therapy in the future.
[Changes to the repertoire of potions for the three ThrowPotion special actions]
actThrowPotionMinor: blind, confusion, paralysis, sleep, beer
actThrowPotionMajor: silence, slow, gasoline, weaken resistance, whiskey
actThrowPotionGreater: sulfuric, aqua sanctio, disaster, crim ale
[New character]
<Fashionable Kunoichi>
Level 165 Norland. Hmm, a fashionable kunoichi... who could this be?
Is a warmage, but will display as a ninja. Thunder vortex, Speed, and Distant Attack 7.
NB: This will say Distant Attack in game, but it's a misnomer.
[Changes to existing unique NPCs]
<Getuei>the ninja master
No longer use decapitation. Will use Shadow Step, Blade Turbulence, and Struck Out instead.
[Additions to the main quest]
F17 Cradle of Chaos event.
If sub quest: Rule of Ninja has been completed, the <Fashionable Kunoichi> above and <Getuei> (neutral, has starting level of 140, and is visible) will be placed on F18 of the Cradle. They will both revive in a day on this floor. If the quest has not been completed, F18 will be empty.
F19 event. The player will not be able to enter F20 yet.
[Changes and additions]
When a new game is started, temporary facilities (that cannot be entered) were placed around towns, and would get removed during the first diastrophism. These will no longer be placed at all. They may be used in the future when a town development system has been implemented.
Added just a bit of content to Act III main quest.
Added 4 high-level worm race NPCs.
Added 6 high-level imp race NPCs. Added 1 evolution.
Added 1 unique NPC for Act III.
Added generic enemy NPCs to some Act II and Act III mid-boss battles.
Fawn On special action has been renamed to Bewitch.
Added 2 special actions. One of them is for NPC use only.
Changed the appearance and AI of some existing NPCs.
Changed the materials required for creation of high potion of aqua sanctio in item fusion.
Added a more severe version of Bind status ailment called Immobility. While immobile, all teleport-type actions and Shadow Step cannot be performed. Like sleep status, all physical attacks are guaranteed to hit the affected character.
[Fixes]
Fixed the crash that occurred because the facility added in 1.52 had the same internal parameter as the temporary facilities placed around Yowyn. That parameter has been fixed, and temporary facilities that have already been created will be removed after a diastrophism even in 1.52 and the game will stop crashing. Updating to 1.53 will also cause a diastrophism.
Fixed the quest giver's name changing under certain conditions when the journal is opened while outside of the town that the quest was undertaken. As a precaution to prevent this bug, quest giver's names in the journal will now only be refreshed when the journal is opened while in the town that the quest was undertaken.
[New evolution]
imp, nether imp, chaos imp evolve with the king heart into great imp, and learn Magic Equip. Speed increase depends on the original pet. Shines.
[New special ability]
Bound in Blood
Allies that are of the same race as the user will experience the effects listed below. The user will bleed severely.
Gives Speed, Hero, and Attribution Shield depending on the Will of the target. Has less of an effect on the player.
If gauge is less than 50%, then increase it by at most 30% depending on the target's gauge.
MP Breath
Use 25% gauge and 50% of current MP. Will not activate if MP is less than 50% of maximum MP.
The effect will be colored with the color of the element that the user has the highest resistance against, but the breath itself is of magic element.
It has the same power as Power Breath, but adds the value of the expended MP to the damage.
It is unaffected by the enchant that enhances breath attacks or by Charge Attack.
It destroys walls and floor tiles in its area of effect. (The attack will pierce walls.)
Player learns this upon level up if the Fire Breath feat has been learned and unbuffed Constitution and Magic are 60 or greater.
[Changes to existing unique NPCs]
MP Breath and graphic changes will affect existing NPCs. Other changes will affect only newly-generated NPCs.
<Roatonis> the infections
Will use Necro Force and summon undead monsters (zombies).
<Lazasye> the destroy
Will no longer use Houzanha, and will use MP Breath instead.
<Mobile Communication Equipment>

Level 112 imp. Nerve Arrow, Mist of Silence, Crystal Spear, Death Word.

Added yerles mortar and metal zilla to <Mobile Communication Equipment> battle.
Added bind devil worm to <Egelveil> the bind battle.
[Expanded main quest]
The player can proceed to F16 of the Cradle of Chaos after speaking to Norne on F15.
Made the dialogue complement the story thus far, and added foreshadowing.
Placed <Saimef> the doggod on F16. Talk to him to receive an artifact, and <Saimef> will bleed. Defeating him will give you nothing, and he will resurrect on that floor in a day.
-
Yep
[Changes and additions]
Added a new facility to South Tyris. Added 4 new NPCs for it. At this facility you can reset the deepest dungeon floor cleared, quit your existing guild, and reset any secret treasure of saint/wicked used. You can also reset pets' impress, master/servant relationship, marriage, and some other parameters. Like the mansion of younger sister, it cannot be seen on the world map.
Added content to the Insane book.
Any changes made to a quest giver's name will now be reflected in the journal. If the name of the recipient of a delivery quest has had his name changed, the name change will be reflected in the journal when the journal is opened in the town the recipient is in.
The speed penalty for having too many limbs will now also be reflected in a tag team that the character with the penalty is in.
You can now receive a large amount of materials from your pet at once when choosing to receive materials from them. The amount is 500 times what it was. The colour of the log text saying which materials you received and how many of them have been made to match the skill that they depend on. Gardening skill no longer gives Magic ink, and instead gives Shining weed. The former wasn't a plant and it also overlapped with Detection skill materials.
Changed the sprites of harpy and dragon's pet harpy. It's now more harpy-ish.
Added 4 high-level harpy race NPCs.
Added 5 high-level mandrake race NPCs. Changed the sprite of mandrake.
Added 4 evolutions.
Added 1 special action and 3 Wide special actions.
The damage-over-time from poison and bleeding status ailments is no longer reduced by the metal and armour bit flags.
Added 2 new colour options. One of them was a duplicate so it has been made colourless.
Buffed the new 1.51 precious artifact by a little.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Fixed the player being unable to be part of or disband tag teams.
Strength attribute experience is now given for all participants when Lock Break succeeds. The amount awarded is less than that if the lock had been picked the normal way.
Leold no longer has his position reset to Cyber Dome or Ruoza when he is supposed to have moved elsewhere when the player proceeds beyond a point in the main quest.
Fixed Greater Evasion not working unless the character was affected by Gravity status.
Pets are no longer included when counting the number of allied NPCs left on the map during a quest.
Fixed the height and weight of Melugast typeM.
Fixed the issue with the amount physical damage received when Emergency Evasion is active.
Fixed the issue with the player's coordinates when returning from the Act III area for the first time while in the wilderness, then exiting the map that the player had returned to.
Fixed the issue with the player's starting position if the player talks to an NPC and goes to a hunting quest map in the main quest/for a sub quest, then exits that map, then enters it again.
[New evolution]
harpy evolves with another heart to flare chick and learns Super Regene. (Used only when HP is below 50%.)
If a magic heart is then used, it will further evolve into phoenixian and acquire fire resistance.
puppy, pumpkin, greater pumpkin, and halloween nightmare evolve with king heart to necro chimera and learn Bind. Colour will change and speed will increase depending on the original monster.
mandrake evolves to swordmandrake with another heart, learns Shining Wave.
[New special abilities]
Blade Turbulence
Bleed damage to all enemies in sight, dependent on Magic Control. Bleed strength depends on the difference in initial speed between the user and the target.
Lulwy (outer, inner) will now use this.
Death Song
Everyone within sight will be inflicted with Death Word, dependent on the user's Magic, and resisted with the targets' sound resistance. Characters already inflicted with Death Word are exempt.
The user will not roll for resist, and will thus be afflicted by Death Word.
Homing Lazer
Magic damage to all enemies in sight, dependent on Marksman and Perception.
Damage is split amongst all enemies, so amount of damage will depend on the number of enemies.
<Mobile Communication Equipment> will now use this.
It's to give it that gun*** feel to it. You know, like funnel missiles, multi-round missile launch systems, homing lasers...?
The above three are (W)ide special abilities.
Clash Rush
Shadow Step, with 100% critical rate and 100% pierce. 50% of the damage dealt is then deducted from the user's HP. The user will not die even if brings the user's health into the negative. If gauge is less than 25%, it will just be a Shadow Step.
destroy boar will now use this instead of Charge Attack.
Data Delete
No effect yet. Might become a stupidly powerful move in the future.

Talk to <Maile> the marionette shaman to access the functions listed below, but sanity will increase.
The system messages that appear are just flavor text, so don't pay them any mind.
Reset deepest dungeon floor cleared
Reset dungeon floor cleared if it's too high.
It won't become 0, and will depend on how far along the main quest you are.
Quit guilds
Mostly for roleplaying. The only way to make your character not belong to any guild after joining one.
Forget profile
Entirely for roleplaying. Change the 1st and 2nd lines of your profile. Special 2nd line is available here.

[Changes and additions]
Added a bit of content to the main quest.
Added 1 unique Act III NPC.
Added 1 precious artifact to Act III.
Created a new world map for the map furniture item. It will change slightly between Act I and Act II.
Added floor tiles that play a piano note sound when stepped on. There are 24 different pitches.
Juke box item can now mute the BGM on the map.
Added 6 high-level lizardman race NPCs.
Added 1 evolution pattern.
Added 2 new rods (the magic device).
Material gathering spots no longer get generated on maps that randomize every time the player enters it.
NPCs will now have a chance to not use up a charge when they zap an attack rod. That chance depends on the level of their Alchemy skill (it's 80% even at skill level 1). They will receive Alchemy experience for zapping it. Power of the rod is reduced.
Added a special action that allows usage of rods without consuming a charge. For player use only. Power of rods will be reduced.
Added an equipment attribute that enhances breath attacks. Waist, head, and arm equipment have a chance of having it. This equipment attribute can be stacked, and at the maximum level it will triple breath damage. Unlike the equipment attribute that enhances spells, this attribute will also affect breath procs from weapon attacks.
Changed the name and equipment attributes of the <Child Zeder> artifact.
Ammos can no longer be stolen while equipped. Ammos that are not equipped can be stolen.
The range of danger levels of random Nefia (dungeons) that get generated during a diastrophism caused by the statue of Opatos is now different from the range of Nefia that get generated naturally.
Greatly increased the amount of gold pieces given by the statue of Yacatect. That amount will also slightly increase if you worship Yacatect and the amount increased depends on your favour with her. The drop rates of platinum pieces and small medals remains the same.
Spots that used to have a random Nefia will eventually have a new Nefia on them instead of remaining empty forever. (This does not affect existing dungeons.)
Breakfast and Handmade gifts events now have an equal chance of picking any pet out of all your pets. However, pets that do not have the required skill will not get chosen.
Added an item that will prevent a pet getting picked to serve you breakfast or give you a handmade gift in the morning. It is a randomly generated item, but if you update to this version ten of them will get placed at your feet so that you can try them out.
Added a special action that allows you to work with your pets to break a lock on a container. You can use this when you're alone too.
If a pet is in a tag team and sells ore items, half of the proceeds will now be given to the partner.
[Fixes]
Fixed some NPCs not getting their portraits displayed properly if you change someone's appearance and load up the portraits in the process before talking to them or looking at their character sheet.
Fixed untitled red books getting generated.
Fixed some items that were generated after the generation of a precious artifact getting listed in Oracle.
Defeating an enemy with Body Blow will no longer cause the dead character to vomit.
Fixed some monsters spawning in ragnarok when they shouldn't.
When a high-level mutant spawns, it will now have at most 20 limbs.
Fixed materials getting inherited anyway if you cancel while inheriting a gene.
Fixed the placement of the command ring if the game window is too tall.
Fixed the variable that determines if the player is eligible for a reward not getting triggered if you offer an item to your god with your favour already maxed out.
Fixed the calculation for escort quest reward.
Fixed the distortion of the menu screen text that occurs even when the title water effect has been turned off in the options.
Fixed time stop equipment attribute getting a + displayed in the attribute strength even when the attribute isn't that strong.
Fixed the 1 tile difference in the distance that light travels in the North/South directions and the East/Wast directions.
Fixed the custom spoken line file for pets not getting read sometimes.
Time passed during game events (such as chocolate-making or travelling to/from the Act III continent) will no longer have random events.
Event triggers will no longer be activated when certain characters get defeated in the EX arena.
Fixed the item correction code for Cyber Dome. (NB: This refers to the feature where entering Cyber Dome with certain glitched/obsolete items will automatically fix those items.)
[Fixed timing of tester placement]
Made the tester appear in Amur-Cage after talking to <Regulus>/<Renai> at the border.
An additional tester will be placed there after the event finishes, even if there is already one on the map.
There are multiple infected yerles soldier there too, so what's the difference a tester or two is going to make?
[New NPCs]
draco eques
Level 160 lizardman. Shining Wave, Gravity Sphere.
blizzard lizard
Level 134 lizardman. Ice Ball, Crystal Spear.
claymore dragonewt
Level 110 lizardman. Shadow Step, Provoke.
assassin lizard
Level 68 lizard. Invisible. Space retention.

Level 45 lizardman. Insult, Poison Breath.
lizard mage
Level 22 lizardman. Heal Critical on low health.
<Belphat> the cosmic sword
Level 170 yith. Shadow Step, Swarm, Attribution Shield, Mind Breath. Cure of Eris on low health.
[Expanded main quest]
Placed <Marka> on F14 of the Cradle of Chaos. Will not respawn here after dying.
F15 is a floor that is randomly generated every time it is entered. Placed <Norne> and <Belphat> here. Defeating them will yield neither AP nor items.
<Meshera plant> has been made to not give AP nor items until the Ether blaster is obtained.
You will be able to take <Belphat> along with you after talking to him. (Works just like <Poppy>)
Taking him along with you just once will set off the trigger to let you proceed along the main quest.
But you won't be able to go to F16 just yet.
Talk to <Kuroya> at the Dock when you have <Belphat> with you to receive a reward, and <Belphat> will leave your party to be placed on the Dock.
[New item]
<Amulet of Yekub>
The reward for the above quest. Neckace, but cannot be offered to <Yacatect>.
rod of magic laser
Casts Crystal Spear. Craftable with 35 Carpentry.
rod of poison ball
Casts Poison Storm. Craftable with 22 Carpentry.
[Child Zeder artifact]
Name changed to <Lucky Almonds>, removed cold resistance, added some dark resist. Added enchants that increase luck and enhances breath.
Made it more obvious that this weapon's design was not based off **cky or ***** sticks.
[New special abilities]
Dupli-Cane
Learned during level up when Alchemy is 30 or more.
Use it to turn it on or off. Does not use a turn.
When on, zapping attack rods will not reduce their number of charges.
Their power will be approximately halved, and 3 SP will be spent.
Rods were hard to use as a main weapon due to their reliance on charges, and this is to fix that.
Lock Break
Learned during level up when Lock Picking is 60 or more.
Works on chests, gamble chests, and safes.
Use half of the sum of the Strength and Lockpicking of all allies (including the player) within sight to attempt to open the chest. skeleton key does not increase chance of success.
When the lock is successfully opened, there will be one less item in the chest or the safe.
[New evolution]
lizard man and lizard mage evolve with king heart to lizard majesty and learn Shadow rush.
[Changes to statue of Opatos]
In previous versions, diastrophisms on a continent did not overwrite all random dungeons on it.
statue of Opatos will now rewrite all dungeons, even the ones that have been entered but have yet to be cleared. 1/4 of the value of the deepest dungeon cleared will be used for generating dungeons, and the regional multiplier will be 2, so dungeon levels should not be in the extremes as much now.
-
Lastly:
[Changes and additions]
Added a bit of content to the main quest.
Your summoned undead can no longer be performed to nor preached to. They will also no longer eat, drink items on the floor nor pick up items on the ground.
Coffins of necromancy created when undead are returned to their coffins will be identified and will neither be cursed nor blessed.
The map furniture item can now be read. It's a little hard to grasp what's going on in the main quest without knowing the placement of the other countries in game. It uses the file that is included in the development version of vanilla Elona, but I plan to replace it with another version in the future because it's too colourful and the shape of North Tyris isn't quite right.
Added 5 high-level fairy race NPCs. Changed the sprites of fairy and titania.
Added 1 evolution.
Added 1 Act III unique NPC.
Added 1 item for use in Act III.
NPCs will now use a ranged attack instead of Swarm when their target is not next to them. If they do not have the proper equipment to perform a ranged attack, they will simply spend the turn increasing their gauge.
NPCs with a first aid kit in their inventory will now automatically use it when they are low on health. They won't heal for very much if the stats that the heal amount of the kit depends on are low though. Usage of a kit will take precedence over their low-health AI routine, so you can give them first aid kits if you don't want them to use the said routine on low health.
Juices will now have their blessed/cursed status and + value erased and get stacked when made with a juice mixer.
[Fixes]
Fixed gauge of characters with 96-100% in their gauge having it reduced to 95% instead of increasing when they kill an enemy.
Fixed performing not giving experience like it should.
Fixed usage of first aid kits and special ammos boxes while they are on the ground not refreshing the tile they are on, causing them to leave behind a ghost item.
Fixed being unable to play the Act III minigame on the 15th of every month.
[Expanded main quest]
Event on F11 of Cradle of Chaos.
Placed <Spipha> on F12. She will not resurrect here after dying once.
Event on F13 of Cradle of Chaos. You won't be able to proceed to F14 yet.

researcher's diary
Received from <Regulus> after F13 Cradle event. Cannot be wished for.
If you have this item and talk to <Loyter> after Nightmare quest is cleared, he will make a comment about it.
You won't receive anything from him though.
[New evolution]
fairy will evolve with god heart into magna fairy. Learns Magic Equip.
The moral of the story is that they've done quite a lot since we last peeked in on them---quite possibly one of, if not the most, lively Roguelike projects in the world today as it apparently so happens now that they've got serious momentum going! 8)
-
That time again~ v1.63 and back a bit 8)
[Changes and additions]
3 additional floors of main quest content.
Added 1 unique NPC and 1 unique artifact for Act III.
Added 6 new high-level behicle race NPCs.
Added 1 new evolution and changed an existing one.
Removed the DV halving effect of Mist of Frailness spell. Added an [armour] skill reduction effect that works separately from the PV halving effect. Armour skill reduction amount scales with spell level to a maximum of 300. The spell will also reduce the bonuses from armour skill. This is to make the spell useful for players and allies and not just for enemies.
The Gravity status ailment now goes away when changing maps.
Changed the damage calculation for Gravity Sphere special action. Base damage is now higher, floor number has less of an effect, and it is also no longer reduced by the target's Strength. It can still be reduced by magic resistance and Feather. It will now also roll to cause a short duration of Slow (can be resisted); duration of Slow depends on the user's Constitution. The probability that its corresponding equipment attribute will proc this special action has been reduced to 60%.
Added a gauge attack that is activated by Gravity Sphere special action.
Added 2 'W'ide special actions that work well with the Gravity spell. The Tough feats have been swapped for a feat that grants these. This should make it possible to roleplay as a character with gravity powers.
Added a special action that allows you to run over enemies while riding.
Added 1 learnable feat (i.e. not bought with AP) that reduces the accuracy penalty for riding.
Minimum damage for Smash Ground and Blade Strings special actions after damage reduction now depends on the user's Strength and Tactics.
Changed the counter for stacks of sox and panties [in the Japanese version] to pairs.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Fixed the following unique artifact melee weapons not triggering gauge attacks: Blood rod, Sasanqua Sickle, Zugaikurai, and Necromantis.
Fixed using love potions with Alchemical Rain dripping hot wax from Candle of Luluwy on to targets.
Fixed a turn getting expended if you use the Directive special action but cancel before selecting a target even if you have a Very pistol of Mani.
Fixed there not being an accuracy penalty due to the weight for a ranged weapon equipped in a hand slot.
Fixed there being an accuracy penalty due to weight for a melee weapon equipped in the ranged slot.
Fixed having an extra sox taken from you when turning in sox at a particular Act III sub quest if you have 31 or more sox. (For example, if you had 60 sox when turning them in, you will end up with only 29.)
All NPCs except ranch animals that have had a seasoning item used on them will no longer attempt to follow the player around.
Fixed harvesting unknown seeds causing the artifact seed auto-save and their crops gaining +enchant value reserved for fruits and vegetables.
Fixed equality sign in the code not resetting largeanimal and seamonster races to their default sets of body parts.
Fixed the crash that occurred when attempting to read more than a certain number of sprites within the deck. As a result of this change, user sprites (for custom NPCs) are now permanently set to their default.
Fixed the freeze that occurred when using Golden Storm when there are no targets within range of the special action due to the continual searching for a valid target. As a precaution against this bug, the number of times targets will be attacked is now more random. To make up for that, 1 turn of irresistible Blind status ailment will be applied. Blind enemies with bling!
Detailed changelog (E) Beware of spoilers?
[Additional main quest content]
Placed the below mentioned Alfred on F34. Generates with half health and is Unconscious by default. If Lankata was killed, he will automatically recover from unconsciousness and you can talk to him. Otherwise, you will have to bash him to talk to him. You will be able to progress in the main quest even if you ignore him.
The main quest branches are as follows:
If you talk to Alfred with Lankata killed -> Alfred will be placed in Amur-Cage after the conversation.
If you talk to Alfred without killing Lankata and without killing all 4 of the undead bosses -> Alfred will be placed in Amur-Cage after the conversation. Lankata will be moved from F25 to F34 if not dead, and will naturally resurrect with time on F34 when killed.
If you talk to Alfred without killing Lankata but have killed all 4 of the undead bosses -> Alfred and Lankata both move to the Shrine of Guardian after the conversation.
If you go to the next floor without talking to Alfred -> Alfred dies when you use the stairs, and will be placed in Amur-Cage. When reentering F34, Lankata will be moved to that floor from F25 if not dead, and will naturally resurrect with time on F34 when killed.
If Alfred dies before the conversation -> when reentering F34, Lankata will be moved to that floor from F25 if not dead, and will naturally resurrect with time on F34 when killed.
#3 is the only scenario where both of them get to live, but no matter which you pick there won't be any difference in the items that you can obtain or anything. Just pick the one that suits your character the best.
Cutscene on F35.
Placed <Aile> the attendant on F36.
F37 is inaccessible for now.
The Cradle of Chaos has 40 floors in total.

[New feats]
Zin-ba
NB: pun on "one with the steed".
With this, accuracy penalty for weapons weighing 4s or more is reduced from
(Weapon weight - 3.6) * 1000 / (10 + Riding skill / 5) to
(Weapon weight up to 10s - 3.9) * 1000 / (100 + Riding skill * 2).
In addition to the above, the negative accuracy modifier while riding will also be reduced from
100 / (150 - Riding / 2, min. 115, max. 150) to
100 / (150 - Riding / 2, min. 105, max. 125).
The accuracy penalty for weapons weighing 4s or more equipped on the steed is also reduced from
(Weapon weight - 3.6) * 1000 / (10 + Strength / 10) to
(Weapon weight up to 10s - 3.9) * 1000 / (100 + Strength).
The negative accuracy modifier for the steed while riding will be reduced from
100 / (150 - Strength / 2, min. 115, max. 150) to

Sexy Dance
NB: Reads "Gravity Control" in Japanese.
Replaces the Tough feats. Gives the Gravity Accel special action.
Will give Gravity Sphere special action when leveling up with 60 or more Constitution.
Will also give the Giga Gravitation special action when leveling up with 100 or more Constitution.
[New special actions]
Gravity Accel
Applies a buff of the same name to all allies (including the user) in visual range. When activated, targets will gain +20 turns of Gravity status ailment. While active, affected targets will not activate traps, nor step into puddles, nor fall into wells even though they are afflicted by Gravity. Physical damage dealt is increased by 10%, and physical damage received is reduced by 5%.
Speed increases with the number of turns of Gravity status ailment, capped at 1/2 of the target's original speed or 300, whichever is lower.
While the buff is active, the "you generate gravity" ether disease symptom is negated.
Gravity status ailment from Gravity special action lasts for +50 to 99 turns which is longer, so you may find Gravity Accel better when used in conjunction with the [Gravity special action].
In essence, this reduces the negative effects of Gravity on allies and also applies positive effects to it.
Gravity status ailment will still completely negate Greater Evasion though.
Giga Gravitation
Applies +30 turns of Gravity status ailment to all enemies in visual range and +1 turn of Bind.
Deals magic-element damage dependent on the user's Constitution and Magic Capacity skill level.
Damage is multiplied by 1.5x if the target's Gravity status ailment has 50-99 turns remaining.
Damage is multiplied by 2x if the target's Gravity status ailment has 100-149 turns remaining.
Damage is multiplied by 2.5x if the target's Gravity status ailment has 150-199 turns remaining.
Damage is multiplied by 3x if the target's Gravity status ailment has 200 or more turns remaining.
This special action is a lot more powerful when used in conjunction with the Gravity special action.
Gives Magic Capacity experience after using.
Hyper Dash
Learned during level up if Riding skill is 80 or above.
Nothing happens if used while not riding/being ridden.
Effect is applied to the player if used by the steed the player is riding, or if used by the pet riding the player.
If used by the player when the player is not riding, the below mentioned effects do not occur.
The character controlling movement (or the tag partner of an NPC) will be able to displace enemies from their tile with this buff.
When the player is under the effect of this buff, a melee attack will not occur when moving in the direction of an enemy and the enemy will get displaced.
Shadow Step and Distance Attack can still be used. Select the appropriate option from the 'i'nteract menu to use melee attacks.
Be aware that NPCs will not attempt to push away an enemy standing between them and their target.
Inflicts 1 turn of Wince. Damage is reduced by the average of the target's PV + DV + Dexterity.
The character controlling movement will gain Riding skill experience. (Also given to the player's steed/rider, and to tag partners of NPCs.)
This is basically a hit-and-run attack.
Divine cattle and unicorn NPCs from evolution will now have this special action.
[New gauge attack]
Graviton Buster
Activated by Gravity Sphere. Destroys wall and floor tiles in a breath area of effect.
Targets will gain +50 turns of Gravity status ailment and a Slow debuff that is stronger than that of Gravity Sphere. Damage is not reduced by Feather.
Power depends on the average of the user's Constitution and the floor number (max of 2000).
[New evolution]
Large bike will evolve with machine heart into machine storm and learn Hyper Dash.
[Changes to an existing evolution]
Xeren electric tank which was already strong to begin with will no longer evolve. Xeren auto tank added in this version will evolve into Xeren humanoid tank. Attribute increased by evolution has been changed from Magic to Strength. Fire a volley will also be learned.

continuing~
[Changes and additions]
Overhauled character sprite drawing to make it possible to accommodate 1000+ sprites. Mostly affects custom NPCs and disguised summoned undead. As far as I can tell, everything should still work the same.
If the move that an NPC picks from its AI routine is Hero, Holy Shield, Regeneration, Attribution Shield, Speed. Holy Veil, Divine Wisdom, Lulwy's Trick, Boost, Contingency, Clear Mind, Feather, Charge Attack, Attribute, AutoGuard (aka Absolute Protect), Retention (aka Space Retention), Concentration, Element Scar, Mist of Silence, Slow, [Mist of] Frailness, Nightmare, Punishment, or Death Word, and its target is already afflicted with the buff/debuff, it will attempt to pick another move out of the routine up to two times. For example, a move that has a 20% chance of getting used will now only have a 0.8% chance of getting wasted.
Added a new gauge attack that procs from touch-type special actions.
Added a 'W'ide special action that throws money. Money thrown cannot be recovered.
Added 2 new special actions for NPC use only.
Added 1 new 'W'ide special action available from the shield bash feat.
Sacks of sugar and bottles of salt are now usable items. Added pepper and soy sauce items; these fall in the same category of items as the former two. Using these on any NPC will marinate them and increase the quality of the corpse they drop (up to +4). Now you can enjoy little Gwen with salt and pepper or have your bosses with soy sauce.
Unknown seed crops no longer yield junk- and ore-type items.
Tentatively added 4 new items. All of them are obtainable from unknown seeds.
Added 3 new item fusion recipes. Relaxed item requirements for instant ale recipe and increased the number of products it yields.
Summoned undead no longer contribute to performing score.
Only one each of every type of fused undead can be created at a time.
Coffins of necromancy of summoned undead used in necro fusion will now have a cooldown of 24 hours.
Kaneda Bike's sprite is now a mix of the original bike that it references and a normal motorcycle.
Using Alchemical Rain with love potions no longer causes impress to increase (it will still cause Dim though).
Changed the damage calculation for Blade Strings. Tactics skill now has a greater effect on damage, and damage is now reduced by the target's armour skill.
The "change attack to arrow magic" feat now gives Casting experience. Special actions that proc regular attacks will now also change those attacks to dart-type spells.
The portion of the extra melee attack bonus chance that depends on the number of hands is now 0 when number of hands is 2 or fewer. (NB: see equipment attributes page on English wiki for more info.)
I've always felt that Confused and Dim are too similar in terms of their effects, and there are also several ways of applying Dim to targets that are immune to it. Thus, to make the distinction between them greater, Confused now causes only spellcasting failure and random movement of the player's character, and also reduced ability to give commands to the player's character. Dim, on the other hand, causes reduced accuracy, reduced evade, and an increased chance of receiving critical attacks.
Body weight of 100kg and above no longer grants immunity to spider webs.
The portion of body weight that depends on height has a minimum of 0. Characters with 0 weight now no longer gains weight when eating. Cursed Slow potions and that soup item will still have an effect.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Fixed tobacco not getting consumed in the tobacco processing recipe.
Fixed damage reduction due to distance multipliers getting applied twice when rock throwing equipment attribute is in effect.
Fixed regular investing (i.e. not investing 50) attempting to increase shop rank twice.
Fixed portrait, name, and atmosphere of characters that do not have a walking animation set not returning to their normal state when the effect of a shift core ends.
Fixed log messages sometimes not getting displayed when more than one message attempts to display when changing maps.

[New items]
All of these can be harvested from unknown seeds. They also have a low chance of getting randomly generated. If harvested, they will gain a +enchant value from Gardening skill or from the fertilizer bonus.
tea leaf
Will be used in item fusion to craft black tea or green tea in the future.
coffee beans
When used in item fusion, yields 4 x cups of coffees that are all guaranteed to be blessed and inherit the +enchant value of the coffee beans. The +enchant value increases its sell value. You can use this to roleplay coffeshop.
rice
When used in item fusion, yields 10 x rice balls that are unblessed but inherit the +enchant value of the rice. It's an early game food that will not train attributes, but the +enchant value will recover SP.
bannou mugi
(NB: multi-purpose wheat)
When used in item fusion, yields 2 x bottles of beer and 2 x bottles of whiskey, all of which are guaranteed to be blessed, as well as 2 x sacks of flour and 2 x raw noodles that are unblessed but inherit the +enchant value of the bannou mugi.
[New special actions]
Shield Parry
Learned upon level up if Shield skill is 35 or above and shield bash feat has been acquired.
Applies a buff of the same name to all allies in sight who have a shield equipped in a hand when used.
Will give a (DV total of shields equipped in hands + 5, does not include tonfas/claws)% chance of evading physical attacks. Is calculated separately from the normal evasion. This % chance has a minimum of 0, and maximum of 15. (This means that the lighter shields are better than heavy shields in this respect, and there will be no need to use multiple shields as 1 will suffice.)
If a melee attack is evaded with the above calculation or with a regular evade/greater evasion while the buff is active, 2 turns of Invert status ailment (NB: "stagger") will be applied to the attacker.
(Remote attacking opponents will be Inverted, but ranged attackers will not and will only be evaded.)
Physical damage on characters affected by Invert will be multiplied by 1.75 times.
High DV shield-wielding characters can now be damage support.
Golden Storm
Learned upon level up if Investing skill is 50 or above. (Is a 'W'ide special action.)
An attack that tosses 200gp at each enemy in sight. Tosses up to 10 times. Gold pieces cannot be retrieved.
Gold amount cannot be adjusted because that would make balancing this special action difficult. Too bad, really.
Damage depends on Investing and Throwing skill levels. This really is a spike damage special action for Throwing characters.
Damage is reduced by target's PV, armour skill, and Dexterity. Won't work well against opponents that have a lot of defence.
Yacatect will use this for both of her forms when her health is down to 50% or less, with the probability of her using it depending on the amount of gold [that she has].
More literal bang for your bucks.
Rocket Fire
Same effect as the panzerfaust X item, except damage is reduced by the target's PV, DV, Constitution, and armour skill. If gauge is insufficient, it turns into a regular ranged attack.
Nuclear Fire
Same effect as the atomic launcher item, except damage is reduced by the target's PV, DV, Constitution, and armour skill. If gauge is insufficient, it turns into a regular ranged attack.
[New gauge attack]
GHAND
(NB: expends 100% gauge.)
Power depends on the average value of Will and Magic. Has no effect other than damage, but damage is easy to scale up.
Hand-type special action -> (Resolution Hand if you have it) (NB: it actually says "Palm of Derangement" here? Typo?) -> GHAND would be how attacks are usually chained, but if the Blue Spirit is equipped, only GHAND will be used after selecting the hand-type special action. This increases damage dealt and also allows you to attack distant enemies.
[Seasoning for prepping food]
Any of the seasoning items will increase corpse quality by +1. It uses the same variable as the counter for rubbing livestock on the ranch, so the number of seasoning items used on them is the number of times you won't have to rub them. There might not be a point in doing that though.
All of them will deal a large amount of damage to snail race characters.
Partial changelog for next version
[Changes and additions]
Added 1 unique NPC for Act III and 1 unique artifact.
Added 6 new high-level behicle race NPCs.
Added 1 new evolution and changed an existing one.
Removed the DV halving effect of Mist of Frailness spell. Added an [armour] skill reduction effect that works separately from the PV halving effect. Armour skill reduction amount scales with spell level to a maximum of 300. The spell will also reduce the bonuses from armour skill. This is to make the spell useful for players and allies and not just for enemies.
The Gravity status ailment now goes away when changing maps.
Changed the damage calculation for Gravity Sphere special action. Base damage is now higher, floor number has less of an effect, and it is also no longer reduced by the target's Strength. It can still be reduced by magic resistance and Feather. It will now also roll to cause a short duration of Slow (can be resisted). The probability that its corresponding equipment attribute will proc this special action has been reduced to 60%.
Added a gauge attack that is activated by Gravity Sphere special action.
Added 2 'W'ide special actions that work well with the Gravity spell. The Tough feats have been swapped for a feat that grants these. This should make it possible to roleplay as a character with gravity powers.
Changed the counter for stacks of sox and panties [in the Japanese version] to pairs.
[Fixes]
Fixed a turn getting expended if you use the Directive special action but cancel before selecting a target even if you have a Very pistol of Mani.
Fixed there not being an accuracy penalty due to the weight for a ranged weapon equipped in a hand.
Fixed there being an accuracy penalty due to weight for a melee weapon equipped in the ranged slot.
Fixed having an extra sox taken from you when turning in sox at a particular Act III sub quest if you have 31 or more sox. (For example, if you had 60 sox when turning them in, you will end up with only 29.)
All NPCs except ranch animals that have had a seasoning item used on them will no longer attempt to follow the player around.
Fixed harvesting unknown seeds causing the artifact seed auto-save and their crops gaining +enchant value reserved for fruits and vegetables.
Fixed equality sign in the code not resetting largeanimal and seamonster races to their default sets of body parts.
Fixed the crash that occurred when attempting to read more than a certain number of sprites within the deck. As a result of this change, user sprites (for custom NPCs) are now permanently set to their default.
Fixed the freeze that occurred when using Golden Storm when there are no targets within range of the special action due to the continual searching for a valid target. As a precaution against this bug, the number of times targets will be attacked is now more random. To make up for that, 1 turn of irresistible Blind status ailment will be applied. Blind enemies with bling!

and more
[Changes and additions]
Four floors' worth of content in Act III main quest.
Added 2 new items.
Added 1 new precious artifact. It will cause summoned undead to fuse with one another.
Added 4 new low-level undeadgod NPCs. They do not spawn naturally.
Added 1 new unique NPC for Act III.
Increased the volume of the growling sound effect when entering a floor with a Big Daddy.
The effect of changing physical attacks to dart spells is no longer solely applied to actions in the NPC's AI routine. It will now also work even if the target is out of range for that particular action in the routine to activate and the NPC ends up doing a regular attack.
Added 2 new 'W'ide special actions obtainable from the Gentle Face feat.
Added 1 new 'W'ide special action obtainable from the Magic Eye feat.
Number of turns that targets are boosted by Rubbing special action is now 3 and 5 respectively for Fellow impress and for Soul Mate and above.
Changed the name of Resolution Hand special action, and also made slight changes to its cost and effect.
Sound effect for Blade Turbulence special action no longer plays when the user is out of the player's sight.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Added code to dissolve a tag team if a tag member has been handed over for a sub quest or placed in the Doujou. This is to prevent the remaining member of the team from temporarily vanishing.
Fixed experience getting rewarded for using Blade Strings on NPCs resulting from splitting or on a sandbag.
Fixed the conversation continuing normally and the game crashing sometimes if a pet is selected from the list pets to change martial style for at the Doujou, and then cancelled.
Detailed changelog (E) Beware of spoilers?
[Additional main quest content]
Mid-boss battle in F30 of the Cradle of Chaos, but you can ignore it and go down the stairs if it's too much trouble. Future events will change a lot depending on whether you killed all four unitdead NPCs (NB: see below) on the floor.
Cutscene on F31. Halion and Miros will get placed in Ruoza after that. Miros will disappear from Kurualm.
Arma on F32.
Cutscene on F33. F34 is inaccessible for now.
[New items]
b-jerky
Part two of eating legendary monsters is the jerky of the Byakhee!
Dropped occasionally by the king in yellow. Gives speed experience when eaten. Will not cause insanity.
What's great about this is that unlike raw shoes, you can feed them to your pets.
Part three will be roast Shantaks.
hanabi
A purely aesthetic item that is rarely randomly generated. One is guaranteed to be at the Ludus summer festival.
Colour of the effect and where it occurs is random. Can be used on the world map or indoors (consider remodeling your home before that).
This is for the people who had work or are forever alone and couldn't go to a fireworks display - enjoy the fireworks in Irva with your pets, at least?
Let me know if you find a better sound effect for it.
Necromantis
Unique scythe artifact. Using it causes undead to fuse. Music tickets can be exchanged for it in Act II.
[Undead fusion]
Use the Necromantis, select the type of fusion desired, expend 25% gauge, and the undead gets summoned.
Undead that were subject to fusion will become coffins with 1 hour cooldown.
The various Necro Force powers will have an effect, but the [fused undead] cannot be put into a coffin.
Fused undead cannot leave the map they are created in, so it's a good idea to use them only when fighting a strong enemy.
Undeadgod race NPCs have high attributes and have no weakness to fire so they should prove useful. Remember that they don't have the usual resistance bonuses that undead have though.
[New NPCs]
<Halion> the extremist
Level 20 elea. Has temper bit flag. Potion throwing 1, Nether Arrow, Rampage. On low health, Heal Critical.
The following characters do not spawn naturally. They are either created by the Necromantis, or spawn in an Act III mid-boss battle. Keep that in mind if you're looking to raise them as pets. In the future, they will appear in the Void after clearing Act III.
unitdead-king
Undeadgod. Unaffected by equipment attribute that deals massive damage to gods. Rotten corpse. Super Regene on low health. Uses Shadow Step, Squeeze, Boost.
unitdead-queen
Undeadgod. Unaffected by equipment attribute that deals massive damage to gods. Rotten corpse. Super Regene on low health. Psychic Wave, Gravity Sphere.
unitdead-jack
Undeadgod. Unaffected by equipment attribute that deals massive damage to gods. MP Breath on low health. Nether Breath, Voracity Fang, Draw Shadow, Swarm, Megid Flame.
unitdead-joker
Undeadgod. Unaffected by equipment attribute that deals massive damage to gods. Rotten corpse. Cure of Jua on low health. Provoke, Short Teleport, Alchemical Rain, Ice Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Slow. Over-Ray when gauge is sufficient. (When NPCs use Alchemical Rain, it will only make targets wet, but they will remain wet for longer.)
[New special actions]
Abyss in the eye
Gained during level up if the Magic Eye feat has been acquired and Magic is 60 or above.
Gives the user and all pets in sight with a buff of the same name.
Gauge absorption is fixed at 2%, and HP, MP absorption will depend on the user's Magic.
Cowering Smile
Gained during level up if Gentle Face feat has been acquired and Will is 80 or above.
All characters excluding the user in sight will get afflicted by 3 turns of Atrophy and Chills. (Which works out to 0.45 times damage dealt for the afflicted characters.)
Has no effect on characters already affected by Atrophy or Chills.
Smile Field
Gained during level up if Gentle Face feat has been acquired and Will is 40 or above.
Uses Space Retention on the user, and all targets in sight will get buffed with Concentration.
Strength of buffs will depend on the number of targets and the user's Will.
If there are no enemies around that use physical attacks then it may be worth using it even if enemies are in sight.
It makes enemies proc criticals more often so it works well in combination with Emergency Evasion.
-
And finally:
[Changes and additions]
Added 6 high-level yeek race NPCs.
Added 1 item fusion recipe.
Reduced the SP cost of "Touch of..."-type special actions. Added a Wide-area support special action for those.
While Sense Objects is active, you will be able to see invisible NPCs as well now.
Individual spells can now be tracked, the decimal values of their spell levels can be seen, and bonus points can now be spent on them on the character sheet after the resistances section. (Some debug mode functions have been enabled to allow this.)
Added an AP feat for pet use only (listed under Change battle style). When they attempt to use a regular physical attack (melee or ranged), it will become a dart-type spell of the element that they have the highest resistance against.
Reduced the cost of magic practice to 3-10 pp.
The goose now lays 2 pp at a time.
The Elements Eyes artifact no longer affects all allied characters in visual range, and is now targeted in the 4 cardinal directions. Its effects also no longer wear off during sleep. By targeting the desired character and selecting the Cancel option, the Elements Eyes' effect will wear off on that character.
There is now a confirmation dialogue when handing over town child NPCs at an Act II sub quest. Pets marked as important can no longer be handed over.
Pets' Investing skill now has some effect when the player is investing shop (the sum of 1/5 of each of their Investing skill capped at the player's Investing skill level). They will also receive experience to the skill.
Rare herbs now recover 20 times as much potential. The amount of potential recovered by food infused with herb remains the same. This is to buff the option of eating herbs as they are.
Magic practice experience now increases with Learning attribute instead of being a fixed value.
Added scroll of escape to rewards given for defeating the random boss in dungeons.
The speed at which effect animations play at can now be adjusted in the in-game settings.
You can now tell the informer your birthday once. There may be a birthday event in future versions that will occur on the real-life date.
Made it possible to have even more physical intimacy with your pet:
It is now possible to access a special conversation screen with pets who are at Friend impress or above. Choosing which action to take will expend action points.
TxtDialogB, TxtDialogE, TxtDialogF, and TxtDialogH from the pet's custom spoken line file will be used by depending on which action you choose to take, and they will also change their full-body portrait (NB: AKA 'atmosphere') to match.
Their happiness will increase depending on the actions taken up to a maximum of 10. Sleeping will reset your action points to 10, but all happiness points of all pets will also be reset.
Pets' gauges will increase by their happiness points every time they take a turn.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Fixed the crash that occurred if you enter a number less than 0 or a number for which no picture file exists when changing the atmosphere (the full-body portrait). To prevent this, numbers that do not match any picture file can no longer be selected. (This also means that you will be unable to select pictures if their file numbers are not contiguous.)
Fixed the enhances your spells modifier only being 1.1 times at most for magic devices due to a typo.
Fixed the massive reduction in healing effect on characters with cMetal and cArmour bit flags.
Fixed being able to repatriate inner gods recruited as pets, causing them to disappear.
Added more measures to prevent sell price overflow.
Fixed Time Stop special action having an effect even when time has already been stopped. Also fixed some characters not getting their gauge reduced when they use it.
Detailed changelog (E) Beware of spoilers?
1.60: detailed changelog
Taken from 仕様書(elonaplus).txt. May contain spoilers.
[More physical intimacy]
If a pet is at Friend status or above, the player has Action points remaining, and Happiness is not at max, then the [evochat] option will appear in the conversation window.
When that option is selected, the ambient SFXs like the chattering in town will temporarily be turned off.
Picking 'Be kind': +1. Chance of an additional +1 depends on impress.
Picking 'To embarrass': no change. But if they tend to be passive/obedient due to use of the tamer's whip, then there is a chance of gaining +2, [with the chance dependent on the servant/master relationship].
Give 100,000gp: +1. Roll for random number up to the target's current gold amount - if result is below 100,000, give an additional +1.
Every action taken other than ending it will reduce Action points by 1. And to be honest, it's going to be very boring if the pet does not have their atmosphere (full body portraits) set. Evochat is short for evolved chat.
[New NPCs]
heroyeek
Level 155 yeek. Uses Draw Shadow, Hero, Slow.
lunatyeek
Level 131 yeek. Eye of Insanity, Insult, Mind Bolt.
master archayeek
Level 106 yeek. Water Bolt, Dark Eye, Summon Yeek, Bound in Blood. On low health, Cure of Jua.
archayeek gunner
Level 78 yeek. Homing Lazer, Provoke.
archayeek
Level 56 yeek. Shadow Step, Smash Ground.
yeek hard worker
Level 30 yeek. Has a high chance of using collected power, Disturbance.
[New items] - Purely for roleplaying smoking characters
In the future, they may be targetable in the 4 cardinal directions to cause a gauge increase or come with withdrawal symptoms.
suigara - [NB: cigarette butt] Generated at your feet after using a cigarette.
kiseru - Generated randomly.
tobacco pipe - Generated randomly.
hamaki - [NB: cigar] Generated randomly.
cigarette - Generated randomly.
tobacco - Generated randomly. Also harvestable from unknown seed crops.
[New item fusion recipes]
tobacco processing - crafts cigarette, hamaki, tobacco pipe, and kiseru.
[New 'W'ide' special action]
Resolution Hand
Gained during level up if Touch of Poison or Touch of Sleep feat has been acquired and Alchemy skill is 20 or above.
When used, it gives a buff to all allies (including the user) in sight that has the same name.
[With the buff,] Touch of Weakness, Touch of Hunger, Touch of Poison, Touch of Nerve, Touch of Fear, and Touch of Sleep will now deal damage to the target, with amount of damage depending on Alchemy skill and Magic attribute. Damage is reduced by the target's Constitution.
If the target's health is determined to be less than 1/8 of maximum (this does not include the farmer's bonus), then it will invoke something similar to decapitation and deal lethal damage and give the user a small amount of a random material. Targets on a sandbag do not yield materials.
[New spell page on the character sheet]
The spells are basically the same as skills. However, they don't recover much potential when bonus points are spent on them because potential will recover if you do nothing anyway. It's also because not much potential is recovered at high potential. You would probably want to use this to bring spell levels to the point where they are just about to level up before attending magic practice.
[New AP feat for pets]
Change attack to arrow magic
For when you want to make pets with melee/ranged AI attack with only spells instead. (And also if you like dart-type spells.)
Changelog for 1.60fix (E)
[Fixes]
Fixed the crash that sometimes occurs when selling items or depositing items while affected by buffs or debuffs.
Fixed level 0 spells getting displayed on the character sheet'st list.
:taps: Yep, I'd definitely be inclined to say the project is very much alive and lively. 8)

Maybe not the correct place for this question, but I hope you will forgive me.
I am trying to add custom portraits to ElonaPlus, with an 80x112px bmp format, but ElonaPlus does not seem to like it at all... it crashes every time. I am following the format and directory locations that are described for adding custom portraits to Elona (non Plus version)... is there something that I am missing?

Updated to 1.66! patch notes from 1.64 to 1.66 shown in order! (splitting posts up due to exceeding 20k characters, wow!)
1.64 - [Changes and additions]
Added 2 floors of content to the main quest.
Added an item that is available for a limited time only. If you update the game while it is still 2016 and load a save file, it will be generated at your feet.
Made some changes to moon gates and runes because of the server shutdown.
Added 6 high-level ent race NPCs.
Ent race NPCs will start with Gardening skill.
Added 2 new evolutions.
Added 3 new special actions. Added 1 new feat that grants them.
The number of gold pieces awarded for clearing random Nefia is now approximately 1/4 of what it was. Floors other than the first one will have roughly the same amount of gold placed on the ground. This change was made because dungeons gave the same reward no matter how many floors there were in there, and players looking to get the gold reward at the end were basically making a beeline for the last floor. This should increase the amount of money Nefias award if they have 5 floors or more.
Tiles in the random floors of the Act III main quest dungeon are now of a certain type. This does not affect floors that already have been generated.
Decreased the spawn rate of Nefias that have a danger level that depends on the lowest floor cleared.
The player can now use Pregnant special action when pregnant. Now you can get that girl/guy you like knocked up. The kid isn't going to be yours though! (Talk about high-level NTR shenanigans.)
NPCs born from pregnancy will have a level of at most 200.
Increased amount of exp gained by students at the Doujou when the player stops by.
Changed the power of Gravity Sphere special action. Its power was previously balanced with end-game Constitution in mind, so this time it should be balanced when Constitution is still low. Floor number also has a lower effect on its power now.
Converge Breath gauge attack will now increase current HP by 1/3. This increases HP, but is not a healing move. It may increase HP beyond the maximum until HP gets recalculated. HP will not be increased if current HP already exceeds maximum HP.
Items made from item fusion will be identified when created.
Increased the base price of items created from wood craft and stone craft item fusion recipes. Carpentry and Jeweler skills modifier on item quality has been adjusted so that they make it easier to craft better items. The material of the resulting item is also no longer fixed and is now random, so items may sell for even more due to the material modifier on their prices. However, the game will auto-save after crafting an item.
Decreased the skill level required for emerald tablet, brilliant rubynus, and brilliant diamond item fusion recipes. Increased the sell price of those items. Number of items consumed when crafting remains the same.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Fixed and added content to help_npc.txt.
Changed now CNPCs act when they select a move from their routine which CNPCs are not supposed to use. They will now use a physical attack instead.
Fixed the colour mix-up for the archayeek and lunatyeek monsters.
Fixed cancelling item fusion after the ingredients have already been selected then using another item fusion recipe consuming the ingredients from the cancelled recipe.
Fixed gender displaying twice on the conversation windows.
Fixed the issue with trismagistus attack range.
Fixed being able to use Fire a volley even if gauge is below 50%.
Fixed Converge Breath stopping time even when gauge is 100%.
Fixed Giga Gravitation affecting targets out of sight. Also fixed the debug sound effect getting played; it was used for checking when Magic Capacity experience was obtained. Also fixed 10% of maximum HP getting consumed instead of 10% of maximum MP.
Fixed Effect Speed option in the in-game config glitching when restarting the game.

[New special action]
Misteltein
Deals Throwing skill-dependent damage to the target's mana.
There are a couple of things that make this different from other mana damage-dealing special actions.
If the target is not a unique NPC and Strength is half or more than the user's base Strength, then a Strength debuff dependent on Gardening skill will be applied.
If the target is a god-type NPC, then Throwing and Gardening skill-dependent non-elemental damage will be dealt. (Reduced by the target's Gardening skill.)
Gives a little Throwing and Gardening skill experience to the user.
Replaces Nether Arrow in Kumiromi's repertoire of moves.
Violent Garden
Wide special action. Deals Gardening and Learning-dependent poison-element damage to hostile characters in sight.
The strength of the status ailment dealt is fixed.
Targets that are not already afflicted by Bind will have 3 turns of Bind applied to them.

Replaces Nether Arrow in Insane Kumiromi's repertoire of moves.
Aromageddon

A Gardening skill-dependent speed debuff will be applied on hostile targets that are non-unique NPCs and have a Speed attribute that is half of the user's Speed or more.
[New NPCs]

Partial changelog for next version
[Collapse]
[Changes and additions]
Added a bit of Act III main quest content.
When the informer NPC has been informed of your birthday and that day is today, a birthday event will occur when changing maps. (It will only occur once a year.) It's nothing much, so please don't be too eager to see it.
Changed the chicken NPC's sprite because it's the year of the rooster. Also made a different sprite for female chickens.
Placed a new unique NPC at the South tyris north border.
Added 2 new spirit NPCs and evolution patterns.
2 new red books. Placed one of them permanently on a map.
Livestock can now be milked by using Squeeze special action on them.
Milk obtained this way will have an +enhance value on them that depends on how much they were brushed and the player's Dexterity. The +enhance value will be even higher if they are good at producing milk. Being inept at producing milk will have no effect on the resulting +enhance value.
Milking has the same cooldown as Rubbing them with a brush.
However, livestocks' Life will be halved every time they are milked.
Attempting to milk livestock with less than 2 Life will kill them.
Livestock will still spawn milk on the ranch even when their Life has been lowered, so you can choose whether you want to milk them all you can then let them live or turn them into pieces of meat afterwards.
Milk sells for the same amount for all monsters, so with some Rubbing you could have a dairy farm even on a ranch with low level monsters.
To make PV less important and accuracy less unimportant, DV now has 1.75 times the effect on evasion compared to previous versions.
Nerfed Violent Garden - its bind has been reduced to 1 turn.
Some random Nefia will now be generated with their danger level dependent on the lowest floor cleared plus the level modifier of the respective areas.
Slicing animation for bladed weapons now play rotated to a random angle.
Gauge attacks can no longer be used while Continuous attacks special action is in use. Also made the latter's animation faster, and if the attack is a blunt force the animation will be played at random coordinates. Increased the damage multiplier from 17/15 to 17/6. However, there is now a 70% chance that no experience will be gained when attacking.
Accuracy is now halved when attacking with Shadow Step special action. Shadow Step will now become a regular attack when used by NPCs on a target adjacent to them.
Doubled the effectiveness of "increases your chance/decreases enemy chance to deliver critical hits" equipment attributes and Eye of Mind skill. Halved the critical chance penalty of heavy weapons.
Desert regions no longer confuse the player, and will instead cause mild Dim and deal low amounts of damage.
Pets can now be made to stay on a certain floor at your home. They will no longer attempt to follow you to other floors, and their default position will be fixed. After updating the game, you will have to redesignate pets as stayers at your home.
Onigiri now takes 2 turns to eat. (For reference, other foods take 9 turns.) Note that if they have an +enhance value on them they can be used to recover SP even when in combat.
Added the cooked food rank to item names.
Added bed rank to the descriptions of beds.
Reduced identification fee. Pet investigation still costs the same.
[Fixes]
When Neutral NPCs in random Nefia trigger a randomly-generated wire trap that they will no longer behave as if the player had attacked them.
Fixed Silent Ocean special action not changing some tiles. (Music tiles will be unchanged by it.)
Fixed an oversight in BGM assigning for F10 and onwards in the Cradle of Chaos.
Fixed the 16th adventurer getting recognized as a pet by certain game functions such as duel gloves and red soul spindle.
Starvation damage will no longer occur while a picnic basket is in use.
Fixed Misteltein special action not being a hostile action.
Made Graviton Buster not proc from Gravity Sphere equipment attribute.
Reduced [muiltiplier for] MP-dependent damage bonus for MP Breath from 50% to 25%.
[In progress]
Bug testing and fixes.
Making NPCs for a tutorial map.

1.65 - [Changes and additions]
Added a bit of Act III main quest content.
When the informer NPC has been informed of your birthday and that day is today, a birthday event will occur when changing maps. (It will only occur once a year.) It's nothing much, so please don't be too eager to see it.
Added a tutorial facility and 6 new NPCs a short distance south of Vernis. This is to guide players through the early game where it is easy to mess up. It will appear after a diastrophism if you're using a save from a previous version. This is oriented towards totally new players. If beginners find themselves getting stuck in the game even after following the hints given, then I might want to add more tutorial content or change game balance.
Changed the chicken NPC's sprite because it's the year of the rooster. Also made a different sprite for female chickens.
Placed a new unique NPC at the South Tyris north border.
Added 2 new spirit NPCs and evolution patterns.
2 new red books. Placed one of them permanently on a map.
Livestock can now be milked by using Squeeze special action on them.
Milk obtained this way will have an +enhance value on them that depends on how much they were brushed and the player's Dexterity.
Milk sells for the same amount for all monsters, so with some Rubbing you could have a dairy farm even on a ranch with low level monsters.
To make PV less important and accuracy less unimportant, DV now has 1.75 times the effect on evasion compared to previous versions.
Nerfed Violent Garden - its bind has been reduced to 1 turn.
Some random Nefia will now be generated with their danger level dependent on the lowest floor cleared plus the level modifier of the respective areas.
Slicing animation for bladed weapons now play rotated to a random angle.
Gauge attacks will no longer proc while Continuous attacks special action is in use. Also made the latter's animation faster, and if the attack is a blunt force the animation will be played at random coordinates. Increased the damage multiplier from 17/15 to 17/6. However, there is now a 70% chance that no experience will be gained when attacking.
Accuracy is now halved when attacking with Shadow Step special action. Shadow Step will now become a regular attack when used by NPCs on a target adjacent to them.
Users of Distant Attack will no longer get hit by things like cut damage counter when using that attack from a distance.
Doubled the effectiveness of "increases your chance/decreases enemy chance to deliver critical hits" equipment attributes and Eye of Mind skill. Halved the critical chance penalty of heavy weapons.
Desert regions no longer confuse the player, and will instead cause mild Dim and deal low amounts of damage.
Pets can now be made to stay on a certain floor at your home. They will no longer attempt to follow you to other floors, and their default position will be fixed at the coordinate designated. After updating the game, you will have to redesignate pets as stayers at your home.
Onigiri now takes 2 turns to eat. (Note that other foods take 9 turns.) This means that if they have an +enhance value on them they can be used to recover SP even while in combat.
Added the cooked food rank to item names.
Added bed rank to the descriptions of beds.
Reduced identification fee. Investigating pets still costs the same.
[Fixes]
When neutral NPCs in random Nefia trigger a randomly-generated wire trap that they will no longer behave as if the player had attacked them.
Fixed Silent Ocean special action not changing some tiles. (Music tiles will [still] be unchanged by it.)
Fixed an oversight in BGM assigning for F10 and onwards in the Cradle of Chaos.
Fixed the 16th adventurer getting recognized as a pet by certain game functions such as duel gloves and red soul spindle.
Starvation damage will no longer occur while a picnic basket is in use.
Fixed Misteltein special action not being considered a hostile action.
Made Graviton Buster not proc from Gravity Sphere equipment attribute.
Reduced [multiplier on] MP-dependent portion of MP Breath from 50% to 25%.
Detailed changelog (E) Beware of spoilers?
[Collapse]
[Additional main quest content]
Cutscene on F39 of Cradle of Chaos and placed Leold there. Ends with the conversation for now.
[Tutorial facility]
the Adventure Seminar
[NPCs on this map] will resurrect naturally with time and map will refresh periodically. The Classroom map accessible from here will refresh whenever you enter it. The courses overlap in content, but another way of looking at it is that there is continuity across the courses.
[New NPCs]
novice
Level 6 norland. Not randomly generated. Uses Dark eye, as well as Heal Light on low health.
<Part time worker> the red sword
Level 55 karune. Drain Blood, Squeeze, Draw Shadow.
<Mito> the seminar lecturer
Level 65 juere. Uses Shadow Step and Gravity Accel.
<Iduru> the seminar lecturer
Level 65 norland. Uses Shadow Step and Continuous attacks.
<Cresce> the seminar lecturer
Level 65 zanan. Uses Rocket Fire and Potion throwing 1.
<Ajetalio> the seminar lecturer
Level 65 yerles. Uses Blade Strings, Dancing Wire, and Vindalian Jiu-jitsu.
<Zisilion> the mine king
Uses ranged attacks only. Will give platinum pieces once a day for doing town board quests. This reward does not expire over time [and you can claim it whenever you like]. This NPC also serves as a reason for players to visit towns in South Tyris.
chaos serpent
Level 190 spirit. Floats. Resists chaos. Uses collected power, Homing Lazer, Nether Wave, Shadow Step, Eye of brainwashing, Abyss in the eye, and Megid Flame. On low health, uses MP Breath.
chaos seed
Level 30 spirit. Floats. Resists chaos. Uses Squeeze and Eye of Mana.
[New evolutions]
Chaos spirit evolves into chaos sprout with evolution heart. Male and female sprites differ.
Using a god heart on chaos sprout will then make it evolve into chaos plant and learn Extermination Breath.
[Birthday event]
Up to 16 NPCs out of all the pet and non-pet NPCs on the current map will now be selected (pets will have priority) and they will celebrate your birthday.
They will celebrate it even if they were out of sight, have low impress, or are hostile, but not if they are asleep, unconscious, or have 0 Attract.
Lines spoken by them will be affected by their respective styles of speech.
The number of NPCs there and the options [you pick] will determine whether they will cheer and applaud.
The worst thing that can happen is that there is no one on the current map. In that case, the wish goddess will celebrate your birthday.
A blessed present will be generated at your feet when the event ends.
[Milking livestock]
The +enhance value of milk produced by livestock will be higher if they are good at producing milk. Being inept at producing milk will have no effect on the resulting +enhance value.
Milking has the same cooldown as Rubbing them with a brush. However, livestocks' Life will be halved every time they are milked.
Attempting to milk livestock with less than 2 Life will kill them. Livestock will still spawn milk on the ranch even when their Life has been lowered, so you can choose whether you want to milk them all you can then let them live or turn them into pieces of meat afterwards.

1.66 -
[Changes and additions]
The armour equipped by NPCs will now be +enhanced depending on their starting level like their weapon currently is. This will not apply to summoned NPCs and NPCs outside Nefias though.
Equipment increase in price with their +enhance value. Enhanced equipment have the same chance of dropping [from kills] as miracle-quality equipment. The chance for enhanced miracle equipment to drop is even higher. Be sure to leave some space in your inventory so that you can pick these equipment up.
Reduced the multiplier on sales at player shops specialized in equipment from 2 times to 1.5 times.
Greatly reduced the delay between refresh ticks for generating fertilizer on farms and well as the Rubbing and milking cooldowns on the ranch from 120 hours to 24 hours. For existing saves, the new cooldown will take effect after the next fertilizer generation/Rubbing/milking. There is still the minimum 24 hours delay between crop growth [ticks] and generation/breeding of ranch animals. However, the number of chances that crops get to grow over a period of a few days has been doubled, and the chance of ranch animal breeding/produce spawning has been quadrupled.
Amount of money rewarded for clearing Nefias (and their individual floors) was way too much, so it has been significantly reduced.
Added just a few pieces of info that the tutorial facility was lacking.
Added 1 new unique NPC in the tutorial facility who will give you an item if you meet the requirement.
Slightly reduced the fee for attending the Seminar. This is as low as it will go so that players will pay attention to the content.
Changed the portraits of 4 unique NPCs added in 1.65. Middle-age wizards are kind of hard to draw...
Added 2 new red books.
Made categories of instruments produce different "♪" [speech bubbles]. Some of them were kind of hard to illustrate as text, so these might change in the future.
Performing and harvesting quests will now automatically end if you leave the map. (The quests will be cleared if you meet the quotas.) Added an exit for the Party Time! map at the bottom.
Changed appearance rates and added more unique NPCs to the list that will appear in Party Time!. There is now a difference between North and South Tyris in terms of the NPCs that will appear, and people who shouldn't be together will no longer appear at the same location.
Greatly increased the chance of satisfying the audience when Fascination Dance succeeds.
Preaching special action will now please the audience and award points.
When characters with the spell multi-casting bit flag defeat an enemy with dart-type spells, they will no longer immediately search for the next target and shoot the remaining dart spells at it.
Disturbance special action no longer activates when used on a target that does not use gauge attacks. The animation has also been sped up, and the log will describe who used Disturbance on which target.
Made some South Tyris towns have more/less of certain types of quests.
Digging town walls will yield gold bars as well as gold pieces.
Reduce the amount of nutrition that the goose needs to lay platinum pieces. Yacatect's gem stone now gives 10-25pp (depending on Faith skill level).
Increased the limit on number of handmade chocolate that you can make [per year] from 3 to 10. However, they no longer heal, and their effect on Impress has been reduced.
Pets being ridden will now have their HP bar colour change when they are not hungry.
Rod of alchemy and energy crystal of matrix no longer work on items marked as important.
When NPCs attempt to use Shadow Step, Run Wildly, ZinlaiKyaku, or Clash Rush on a target out of sight, it will now become a regular movement instead of attack.
Changed the colour of some wall tiles in the Act III main dungeon.
The log now displays if bomb rocks are idling or in combat, so keep an eye on it. Cluster bomb rock also no longer uses Draw Shadow, and will approach its target with regular movement. As such, they are no longer something that you have to prepare for in advance and are now quite avoidable.
Eye of brainwashing special action now has a visual effect only when the target fails to resist. If the target is the player, the attribute used to resist is now Will instead of Charisma. If the target is an NPC, (Impress + player's Charisma) will be rolled against (50 + attacker's Charisma) to resist.
There is a feature in vanilla Elona where breath attacks do not work on tiles outside a radius centred on the player. This means that all breath attacks outside used to be just a wasted [turn]. This has been changed so that breath attacks will work outside that radius.
The equipment that NPCs spawn with and rare drops that have a 1/100 chance of getting generated or less now have 5-20 times the rate of getting generated. However, there is a trigger that decides if they will get generated, and this has a 1/4 chance of being turned on at the start of each day. Once [a rare piece of artifact equipment or rare drop] spawns, this trigger is turned off. These items will never drop/spawn when the trigger is off.
<Oti-Tubaki>, <Hero's cloak>, plank of Carneades, and <Nightmare> will now get randomly generated. They are unaffected by the aforementioned trigger.
The <Stradivarius> is now available for purchase with music tickets.
[Fixes]
Fixed some descriptions.
Fixed the log not describing who used a breath attack for breath attacks used within sight.
Fixed an NPC added in 1.65 not being marked as unique, causing it to get randomly generated and not speak its unique NPC lines. If this NPC is already generated in a save file from a previous version, the game will automatically mark it as unique when you enter the border map.
Fixed the deck image of an NPC added in 1.65 (not the aforementioned).
Fixed sprites for female chickens not getting used.
Fixed exchange items (NB: music tickets/small medals?) in player shops not getting categorized as sellable items.
Fixed vomiting when Alchemical Rain is use and generating a vomit causing the current Alchemical Rain to apply the blessed/cursed status of the vomit [to the remaining hits].
Fixed getting hit by cut damage counter when using Distant Attack adjacent to the target.
Fixed custom dungeon deed map name getting reset to the default when you exit the map by walking off the map edges.
Fixed challenge-type hunting quests not getting cleared after defeating the quest target if the same type of monster has been summoned (by necromancy or otherwise) on the map.
