[h3]--- Bug Fixes ---[/h3]
- We have removed the -0.2 degree X-axis tilt that was implicit for the player and events.

- Fixed a bug in the command script "Event/Rotate Player" where decimals were not available.

- Fixed a bug where event destination symbols sometimes remained on the map without being erased.

- Fixed a bug in which local variables were not available in the command scripts "Teleport Player" and "Teleport Event".

- Fixed a bug that caused shader compilation errors during tool initialization in Radeon HD series graphics environments.

- Fixed a bug that caused image files to be locked and unable to be updated or deleted until the tool was exited when generating a map from an image.

- The process of obtaining the loop range of an ogg file has been corrected. This fixes a bug that prevented the BGM_Opening04.ogg in Sound Pack Vol. 1 from playing.

- Fixed a bug where battle formulas required commas for decimal points in some locales.  
From this version onward, decimal points in battle formulas will be standardized to dots.  If you have been entering commas, we apologize for the inconvenience and ask that you please correct this manually.
[Affected Areas]
Database -> "Damage Formula" for Items and Skills, "HP Recovery Formula" for Skills, and "EXP Calculation Formula" for Game Definitions


[h3]--- News ---[/h3]
We are currently planning to release a "Language Pack" function that will allow users to use tab-delimited text to replace the text in the tool (except for some functions).
We will announce the release of this information in a future patch note.

We will continue our efforts to improve "RPG Developer Bakin".

Updated to ver 1.0.6.

The contents include the following functional improvements and bug fixes.

[h3]--- Functional Improvements ---[/h3]
- Removed text limits for title, subtitle, and creator's name. However, if the number of letters is large, the default title screen layout may run out of the screen in some cases. If this is the case, adjust the title screen layout in the Layout Tool after creating the project.

[h3]--- Bug Fixes ---[/h3]
- Fixed a bug that could cause an exception when using the "Display Effect" panel to play both sprites and particles on the same event.

- Fixed a bug in Event Editor > Panel Mode where copying and pasting the "Advanced Variable Box Operation" panel would change "Assign with Decimals Rounded Down" to "Assign Remainder of Division".

- Fixed a bug that occurred in Game Definition > Project Settings > Execution Engine Definition.
Changing the run-time resolution causes a crash / BGM initial volume cannot be changed.

- Minor corrections were made to the sample game "Orb Stories".

We will continue our efforts to improve "RPG Developer Bakin".

Updated to ver 1.0.5.

The contents are the following bug fixes.

- Fixed a problem that caused maps to become abnormally bright in newly created projects, etc.
　The problem was occurring in some locales, including German and Dutch.
　If you are still experiencing the problem after having this correction, please contact us through the Contact Us page.

　With this modification, no special work is required to unzip a published work into a Zip file using Explorer.

- Fixed a problem where the RayCast panel was firing from the feet, making it very difficult to detect the player, among other things.
　From this Ver onward, as previewed in the panel, it will be fired from an elevation of 0.5 square from the ground.
　If you have already implemented events in a way that depends on the previous behavior, we apologize for the inconvenience, but please correct this manually.

- Fixed a bug that caused an exception when using a skill with no effect and common assignment for both allies and enemies on the map.

- Fixed a bug that prevented recovery from events during battles for conditions other than KO.

- Fixed a bug that prevented the event panel "Recover/Reduce Battle Cast's HP/MP" from working in battles.

- Fixed a problem in which a weapon item with "One Step Forward When Acting" could cause a monster with "Not Moving" specified to take one step backward when using a skill, item, or etc.

- Fixed a problem in which the camera with the gazing target set to "world coordinates" would not animate correctly when Game Definition > Rules and Operations > Camera Get Behind the Player Automatically was turned on.

- Fixed a problem in which pressing the F key with a Common Event or Battle Event selected in the Common Event palette would move the display range of the Map Editor to distant coordinates.

- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused the position of the splitter for Database and Resources to fluctuate unintentionally when the asset picker was opened.

- Improved the ability to toggle the display of a file path shown in the upper right corner of the map editor.
　Moved to "View" menu to memorize ON/OFF

- Fixed a bug where Wav files were not being processed properly for playback.

- The section Game Definition > Execution Engine Definition > Font, which was not reflected due to specification changes during development, has been removed.
The font can be changed from the configuration settings in the top menu.

- Modified the various "House - Wall 01-03" models on the 3D stamps for the following three projects　
　Newly created project (Normal assets)
　Sample game "Orb Stories"
