Options Core VisuStella MZ

Version 1.27: December 19, 2024

Documentation Update!
- Added new section in help file for "Keyboard/Controller Rebind Settings":
  - Late Retroactive Updating of WASD
    - If you've decided to enable Keyboard/Controller Rebind, decided to enable VisuMZ Core Engine's "WASD Movement" after your project has config.rmmzsave in your project's /save/ folder, then the newly added 'WASD Controls' will NOT be updated retroactively.
    - This can be remedied in one of two ways:
      - 1. Go into your keybindings and add them in manually (arrow keys still retain functionality). You may need to readjust the "Shift Right" option, too.
      - 2. Delete the config.rmmzsave file from /save/ and the game will generate you a new one with the updated "WASD Movement" controls.
    - This retroactive non-update will only affect your players if they've already begun playing your game with a version before "WASD Movement" was enabled and has a config.rmmzsave file already made. Players that are affected by this can just simply update and add the 'WASD controls' on their own.
    - Otherwise, a new player would not experience this at all.

Message Core VisuStella MZ

Bug Fixes!
- Fixed a bug where \LastGainObj text code did not work with text language key codes. Fix made by Irina.
Documentation Update!
- Help file updated for new features.
- Added note to Text Language Information > How to Enable Switching
  - IMPORTANT! The separator used for the CSV file must be a semicolon (;) and not a comma (,) as to reduce the amount of punctuation conflicts. Keep this in mind as most CSV editors will default to comma (,) instead of the semicolon (;) for their separator.
- Added note to Text Language Information > Naming Weapon Types, etc:
  - You might have noticed that if you've decided to use \tl{keyName} for weapon or other database types, other parts of the game will error out. Don't worry, for these, you don't have to change the currently used database name. Go straight to the CSV and insert in a new key for that particular database name. For example, the equip type "Accessory" will use "Accessory" as the automatic key to look for a translated phrase. If there isn't any in the CSV file, then the default database text entry will be used.
New Features!
- New Plugin Parameters added by Irina:
  - Parameters > Text Language Settings > Language Fonts
    - Different default fonts used for different languages. This allows different stylistic choices to be made for different languages in case the current font you're using doesn't have support for other language types.
    - Keep in mind that players can override this with Options Core if they select a text option other than 'Default' for the 'Text Font' option.
    - Make sure any new custom fonts used for different languages are registered with the 'Custom Font Manager' found in this plugin's Plugin Parameters.
  - Parameters > Text Language Settings > Language Images
    - Allows different images to be used when different languages are used. This is for images that have text on it that you want to appear in different languages based on the text language selected by the player.
