Hello Gaters!

Thank you so much for your patience the last couple of weeks as we readied our latest patch. The team is now back in full force and we're coming to you today with a brand new, fairly major update to Exogate Initiative. Thank you to those of you who provided feedback on our beta test opt-in, as it helped refine a few bits a pieces. For those of you who took part in the beta branch, we're recommending you switch back to the release version with this patch. We plan to keep the beta branch on par with release, but we feel it's safer for your saved games to opt back into the beta if/when we drop another beta test.

This patch brings forward a long-teased addition to the game, plus a bunch of fixes and new bits and pieces. There's also a bit of news for you as well, so let's dive in:

First off, we brought on a new developer to help build and improve on Exogate Initiative. Their past experience includes work on Dune Spice Wars and Northgard and we're very happy to welcome them.

Secondly, we realize that we originally announced this patch for "by the end of July," and then there was another delay in August, so unfortunately it took a lot more time to put together than we expected. We're going to work to be more open and communicate changes like this better with the community in the future.

As for the patch itself, we've made some big optimization changes, which in turn changed a bunch of things. You'll experience a LOT of improvements throughout the game experience, but there's always the possibility that we missed some new issues. Should you come across anything, please report them through the in-game tool.

We'll continue working on improvements to the UX, Gaters, and team & equipment management. We also thank each and every one of you for providing feedback and ask that you continue to do so on all platforms. Your feedback will continue to help guide us, showing us where the community is most focused.

As for the next major patch, we're aiming for early November, though there will likely be smaller updates/hotfixes along the way. For this next major patch we're looking to add the following:

• Alien Gaters - Yep! You'll finally be able to recruit aliens to your squads.
  
• Revisiting Planets - We're working on a new room that will handle what is without a doubt the most requested feature, returning to previously visited planets.
  
• And of course continued balancing and UX improvements.

From all of us, thank you,

The Xeno Bits team

Thank you for using VRoid.
pixiv Inc. (hereafter referred to as “pixiv”, Office: Shibuya, Tokyo; Representative Director: Shingo Kunieda) is pleased to announce that, as of today, September 7th, 2023, we are launching the VRoid Studio iPad app.

VRoid Studio is a modeling software that allows anyone to easily create their own 3D characters.
In addition to Windows and macOS, VRoid Studio is now also available on the iPad.
The VRoid team hopes that both Windows and macOS users, as well as those who have never used VRoid Studio, will take advantage of this opportunity to experience the joy of 3D modeling with the iPad version.

▼ Download VRoid Studio for iPad here
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vroid-studio/id6449727674


With the release of the iPad version of VRoid Studio, users can combine the tablet's unique touch controls with stylus pens such as the Apple Pencil. This makes 3D modeling more similar to drawing pictures and thus easier to use.





In addition to touch controls in the basic editing panel, VRoid for iPad also supports:

• Undo/redo via tap during model editing
  
• Pinch in/out, camera rotation, and panning during model editing and shooting

By double-tapping the pen shaft, users can switch between the Pen tool and the Eraser, providing a smoother editing experience.

Like the Windows and macOS versions, VRoid Studio for iPad is also available for free.


If you already have models in the Windows or macOS version of VRoid Studio, you can transfer them between devices using .vroid files.


The following are the recommended devices for running VRoid Studio for iPad.
If you're using an iPad model not on this list, the initial Texture Display Resolution setting will differ from the default value. (For more details, please refer to "About Texture Display Resolution".)

▼ Recommended iPad models
iPad Pro 12.9" (6th generation)
iPad Pro 11" (4th generation)
iPad (10th generation)
iPad Air (5th generation)
iPad (9th generation)
iPad mini (6th generation)
iPad Pro 12.9" (5th generation)
iPad Pro 11" (3rd generation)
iPad Air (4th generation)
iPad (8th generation)
iPad Pro 12.9" (4th generation)
iPad Pro 11" (2nd generation)
iPad Air (3rd generation)
iPad mini (5th generation)
iPad Pro 12.9" (3rd generation)
iPad Pro 11" (1st generation)

▼How to check your iPad model
On your iPad, open Settings > General > About > Model Name.

Texture resolution refers to the quality of the images (textures) applied to the surface of 3D models, and it is associated with the surface's detailed appearance and coloration.
The Texture Display Resolution setting is designed to run VRoid Studio on devices with limited memory.
On recommended devices, the Texture Display Resolution will be set to the default size. On non-recommended devices, it will be automatically set to half its usual value.



To access the settings, tap on the "•••" menu located at the top-right corner of the model selection screen. From the menu that appears, you can go to Settings to check or modify the Texture Display Resolution.

Please note that if you use a non-recommended device with the default texture resolution settings, the application may force quit.


As part of this app development update, we have added Windows Ink to the VRoid Studio input system. This enables touch operation with a tablet device in addition to mouse and pen tablet operation.
Users who use a pen tablet in the Windows and macOS versions of VRoid Studio should read about the following changes:

(1) Configuration via the settings app that comes with the pen tablet
(2) Start Button > Settings > Bluetooth and Devices > Pen and Windows Ink
(3) Start Button > Control Panel > Pen and Touch

• Right-click and right-drag response has improved
  
• Right-dragging is now possible while hovering

• The frequency of pressure detection remains the same, but in low frame rate environments (e.g., high CPU loads), the pressure may not be reflected properly. If pressure is not reflected, please check the CPU usage and other system resources.
  
• Pressure detection latency (the time between the operation and its reflection on the screen) may feel slightly higher than before.

We've created a new Help page with additional information about Windows Ink. If you have any questions or concerns, please visit the link below.

▼Help article for Windows Ink

• When I right-click with my mouse, nothing happens
  
• A ripple-like effect is displayed around the cursor when I use my pen tablet
  
• Brush pressure is not detected on my pen tablet
  
• When I keep pressing the pen point while using a pen tablet, the system interprets it as a right-click

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and adjustments required for users who have long used a tablet with previous versions. We appreciate your understanding as these changes are required for future app development.

With the VRoid Project, we wish to help create a world where anyone can have their own avatar and fully express themselves through it.
We hope that this release of VRoid Studio for iPad will support many more creative endeavors. We can't wait to see your next creations!

We went to move more "Don't Starve"-like survivor gameplay. New day-night cycle affect the pace of the gameplay. This was something players on expo in Chengdu asked.

More resources appear during the day. Collect them to prepare for the night!

Greetings, Warriors!
It's Paragon: The Overprime.

The new hero Riktor arrived on the planet Prime on August 29th, 2023.
We've prepared a Q&A session to give you all some more information.
Please see below for details!



⏩ Riktor's Electro Storm (E-Skill) inflicts Magical Damage on nearby enemies, so the enemies need to be within the skill's range for it to work effectively. It's most potent when you stay close to your enemies to ensure the skill's damage takes full effect.



⏩ Riktor is primarily a Support hero, so we'd recommend Scout Ahead or Recovery Karma. However, if you opt for a position other than support, Teleportation or Pain Karma would be more fitting.



⏩ The recommended items are tailored for Support heroes, and since Riktor falls into that category, we emphasize items that reduce cooldown times. This enables you to use your skills quickly, delivering devastating stuns and silences to your enemies.



⏩ That's not a bad choice! However, Riktor's Tank abilities are somewhat limited, so you'll need items that boost his defense to effectively engage enemies on the front lines. In such cases, recommended items include Ximmia's Toy, Zinc's Claw Barrier, Blacksmith's Scissors, and Star's Grace.



⏩ Heroes like Drongo complement Riktor. When Riktor pulls in enemy heroes, Drongo can place his Gas Bomb (Q-Skill) right in that spot.


That's all for the Q&A regarding the new Hero, Riktor!
Please let us know if you have any other questions, and we'll return next time with another Q&A.

Thank you.
