[p][/p][p][/p][h2]New Features[/h2][p][/p][h3]Ingame Layout Configuration[/h3][p][/p]

[p][/p][h3]\[Song Details] Button[/h3][p][/p]
  • [p]We've added a \[Song Details] button on the \[SONG SELECT] screen for the currently highlighted track. [/p]
    • [p]Clicking the \[Song Details] button opens a new pop-up window. Within this pop-up, you can access the following functions:[/p]
      • [p]\[BOOTH] Button: View detailed artist information, previously only available via the separate “BOOTH” pop-up.[/p]
      • [p]\[RANKING] Button: Opens the official website to view the ranking page for the selected song.[/p]
    • [p]These functions are inaccessible if the song currently selected by the cursor is locked.[/p]
[p][/p][h3]DB Reaction Priority Setting (in \[PLAY RESULT] screen)[/h3][p][/p]
  • [p]We've added a new option to customize which event your DB (character) reacts to first on the \[PLAY RESULT] screen. You can now set this option via Settings > \[GAMEPLAY] Tab > \[DB Reaction Priority (in Result screen)].[/p]
    • [p]Previously, the DB was hard-coded to always prioritize the “P.A.T.C.H. Point Increase” event. You can now adjust this priority based on your preference.[/p]
      • [p]\[Focus on RANK]: If the number of patterns counted for P.A.T.C.H. Points is less than 50, the DB will prioritize the “Specific Accuracy/Rank Achieved” event over the “P.A.T.C.H. Point Increase” event.[/p]
      • [p]\[Focus on P.A.T.C.H Point]: The DB will continue to prioritize the “P.A.T.C.H. Point Increase” event above all others (same as the previous setting).[/p]
