Dear Explorers,

Get ready for new adventures: the Shores of Taishi DLC is coming on May 19th!

For a taste of what’s to come, check out the trailer:



The Shores of Taishi DLC features a brand new island type (the Celestial Shores) with new tile types, items, locations, enemies, recruitable characters and more. Once the DLC is activated it will expand possibilities across the entire game, both in Campaign Mode and Director Mode. The DLC is tied into the Taishi Academy Explorer Club, and comes with some new club unlocks as well.

This is our second DLC after the Highlands of Avalon DLC that came out last November. We have one more DLC planned for later in the year, we'll tell you more about it during the summer...

If you'd like to be notified once the Shores of Taishi DLC is available, please wishlist it and Steam will send you an email as soon as it's live:

Adventure awaits!

An update patch was released today, which addresses the following two issues:

• Under certain conditions on PC, the cursor on the Character Making screen would not work, or the Looks candidates would not display properly.
• Under certain conditions on PC, some Battle screens did not display correctly, or the game would hang when the battle ended.

Our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.
We hope you continue to enjoy playing DEMON GAZE EXTRA.

Hello engineers!

We are back from holidays! The metadata has been enhanced this time, as well as some hint mechanisms. Getting right to the point, let's take a look at the content:

[Version 0.9.25.12201]
Features:

• The [Metaverse] in the metadata can now realize into other five super matrix matrix.
  
• New construction hint: When pre-built mining machines, the number of minerals covered and the estimated mining speed will be displayed.
  
• Added anomaly detection and hints for "previous exit" savedata. If a crush occurs, this hint can help you find the most recent and relevant autosave.

Changes:

• Reduced the size of the model and collision of the Piler. Now you can build Pilers closer to each other.

Bugfix:

• Fixed a Splitter bug that the filter settings were not correctly reset after deleting an exit conveyor with filter settings.
  
• Fixed a bug in Logistics Station that it would force the delivery of other demanded items when the Logistic Drone mission were changed due to the supply and demand settings, regardless of whether the item was currently fully stocked or not.
  
• Fixed a bug in the Milkyway where the power generation amount of Dyson Sphere may be displayed incorrectly after a second refresh.

Thank you for your continuing support! You can send your feedback in Discord and Google Form! See you next time!

Don't worry, you don't need a Patreon account to see the rules or enter the competition, I'm just keeping all the information consolidated to one place.

Version 1.0.5 overhauls the renderer and adds import support for VRM files. This includes inverting the z-axis (i.e. importing in the left handed coordinate system). Most VRM characters are also unshaded, so the renderer now supports unshaded meshes. Order independent rendering is also being implemented (WIP) to properly handle translucent/transparent materials. Export support for these materials/VRM files is currently spotty, we are working on fixing these issues. There are also a lot of under the hood changes in this release such as better textures, faster loading times for longer animations etc, the full change log is as follows:

Added: VRM import, added the extension to the import dialog (thanks to sigepon).
Added: Option to load GLTF/GLB/VRM files in the left hand system, check box added in import dialog.
Added: Order Independent Transparency to handle transparent meshes, still work in progress.
Fixed: PNG textures are saved as PNG, may take longer to load/take more space but are more accurate.
Fixed: Transparent textures/materials not appearing properly for GLTF/GLB files. Still needs more work.
Added: Mouse cursor size can be adjusted in the GUI settings, saved across reboots.
Added: Flat/No shading for loaded meshes, as most VRM characters are unshaded.
Fixed: Better loading times for files with longer animations. Needs more optimizations to make it faster.
Fixed: In some cases saving the scene to a MUS file changed/transformed meshes.
Fixed: IKEffectors/Retarget lines not changing color when being hovered over at some angles.
Fixed: Ghosts not showing up properly for skinned meshes.
Note: Textures/Materials may not export properly, we'll fix these problems in the upcoming releases.
Note: This release overhauls the renderer and may introduce artifacts such as aliasing, blurry lines etc.

We are distributing an update，please apply the latest update before you enjoy the game.
