3072 AD - PATCH 3.3.a [TIER III and TIER IV] (Patreon)

Hey all!

Patch 3.3.a is finally here! Thank you for your patience.
This patch is mainly the version to be open to TIER III. The main difference for you TIER IV subs is going to be a lot of bug fixes (For more details, read the bug fix list in the patch note below). Aside from the long list of bug fixes, there is no new content from the 3.3 early access from two weeks ago. (Thank to everyone who reported them).

The file also provide a "quick start saves"folder with save files to use for those of you who don't have available save files and want to experience Barb right away. The save files put you just after finishing Splatter (with some decent gear as Warrior Ash). Leaving you the choice to either meet Bijou or Barb right away as both Warrior Ash or Sub Ash (and a "gagged" sub Ash save since there is something special related to that when meeting Barb). Use these at your discretion.

Note: Since MAC is no longer supported by RPG MAKER MV, I will no longer bother making MAC versions anymore since these versions just will no longer work anyway. Unfortunately this is up to the devs of the engine. Not me. I'm only using it.
For mac users: here is their official post about it: https://www.rpgmakerweb.com/blog/regarding-future-rpg-maker-mv-macos-support

If you wish to play the game on MAC, you'll sadly need to be a bit crafty by using an emulator to play PC games on MAC. That's the only solution I can suggest to you.

With that said,

- Custom made tilesets to create Barb's level.

- New music tracks for Barb (Her main theme, her combat theme and her sub ash mini-game theme.)

- BUG FIXES -

- Fixed the crosssave pluggin compatability issue from 3.3. This is what allows you to unlock Game over galleries in VR and be able to enjoy them cross-save so that you don't have to unlock them as either Sub or warrior ash.

- Fixed Galleries in VR being unlocked when conditions were not met. (Note: Now when you start a fresh new game, the cross saves will reset to their default status. This means that if you make a fresh game, you will have to reunlock the galleries. However, as long as you use old save files, the cross save will persist between saves and you'll be able to enjoy the galleries in VR like normal. This was necessary to make sure that new players don't get spoiled with the VR galleries accessible before they should be.)

- fixed the "missing HOLO CHARACTERS" bug.

- Fixed "Dash" not being available in the Grinder room

- Fixed "QTE" arrows popping randomly during the sub ash Transfromation process

- Fixed missing Dialog images during the sub ash transformation process

- Fixed Gallery mode (D-TOX) not exiting properly

- Fixed an image error in the D-Tox gallery

- Fixed glitched character sprite (Masked sub ash) when heading to the elevator for the game-over

- Fixed Movie mode (Bijou) being stuck at a black screen

- Fixed Movie mode (Bijou) sending you back to the title menu after watching it, when it shouldn't.

- Fixed Bijou Gallery mode playing Two different galleries at the same time (Combat maid and Servant maid playing together).

- Fixed several black screen issues.

- Fixed "light on character" error.

- Fixed Background music from a level that keeps playing when you enter the VR world, when it shouldn't.


- DEV COMMENTS-

The goal for the 3.3 patch was to cover the entire Introduction events of Barbwire as both Warrior and Sub Ash. Along with introducing the combat and mini-game systems related to her.

With this, I now have the foundation to keep adding new minigames and challenges for the Sub Ash path in upcoming patches (which will be the priority going forward for 3072 AD and should be done faster than this initial patch now that the core mechanics are done).

The full warrior Ash battle will be done after all the Sub ash mini-games are completed.

Next month, I will do some work the colab game with Scriptor "No escape: Reality" to finish the first path in the bastards prison. It's not a lot of work, it should be done very quickly I think. But work on 3072 AD of course continues.

That's about it.

Hope you like it. Have fun!
