This patch brings balance changes, bug fixes, and support for in-game vsync.

Read the full detail changelog here.


[h2]V-Sync[/h2]Added new functionality for supporting in-game vsync. With Vsync enabled, this method now correctly limits the framerate to 60 fps instead of allowing the game to run at whatever your monitor's refresh rate is set to (not ideal). Players should now be able to use Vsync problem-free and produce a silky smooth PP.


[h2]Tyara[/h2]

• Jumps: +fixed cancel window to make empty jump into landing moves easier (oversight from active frames reduced)

[h2]Agent G[/h2]

• Fw.MK: +slighly adjusted juggle physics so that followup hits more consistent

[h2]Maxx[/h2]

• Fw.HP.Charged: +decreased juggle value, +adjusted juggle physics
  
• Cr.HK: -increased juggle value
  
• HookSwing.EX: -decreased damage, +decreased juggle value, -adjusted juggle physics
  
• HornyToad.All: +increased projectile invul
  
• GAP.L: +decreased juggle value

[h2]ARN-01D[/h2]

• St.HP: -Now considered a projectile
  
• Jp.HP: -Now considered a projectile
  
• DiveBomber: -Fixed being special cancellable
  
• RapidTaser.All: -adjusted final hit juggle physics

[h2]Gat[/h2]

• Cr.MK: -lowered hit box top, -reduced hit box range

This patch brings updated animations for a number of characters and substantial gameplay balances.

Read the full detail changelog here.


[h2]Character Animations[/h2]Roy and many character animations in the game have been improved.

[h2]Turn Animations[/h2]Characters now turn when they are crossed up.


[h2]Start Distance[/h2]Decreased the distance that players start from each other, still generally out of strike range.

[h2]Push Back[/h2]Decreased push back speed factor, characters will push back slightly slower (same total distance, spread out over more frames).

[h2]Damage[/h2]Adjusted damage scaling:

• Old: [1.0, 0.8, 0.6, 0.5, 0.4, 0.3]
  
• New: [1.0, 0.85, 0.7, 0.55, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2]

Falls off slightly slower but has a greater max reduction.

[h2]Camera[/h2]Adjusted battle camera movement for less vertical movement (when characters are airborne) but while also tilting up a bit more, should be an improvement and look more smooth.

[h2]Meter[/h2]T-meter is no longer gained by a constant amount. First bar comes faster than before, second bar slightly faster, third bar slower.

[h2]Attack Translation Scale[/h2]Increased the attack translation scale value from equal push, to favoring the attacker. This is a value that determines how far to push both characters when they come in physical contact while one is in an attack. Previously set to 0.5 so that both characters are pushed the same (effectively disabled, same as normal behaviour). Set to 1.0, the non-attacking character will be pushed for the full amount and the attacker will be pushed none. Will look substantially improved using moves that have a lot of movement point-blank.

[h2]Throw Stun Invul[/h2]Increased throw stun invul from 3 to 4 frames. Characters coming out of hit / block stun, air resets, or getting up from a knockdown will have an additional frame of not being able to be thrown. Because of this, using a 4f move while being pressured should always allow the defender to defeat a throw instead of losing to it.



[h2]Resets[/h2]

• Decreased juggle value to zero - resets will always hit
  
• Decreased corner push back - easier to stay in / cross under in the corner
  
• Adjusted reset arc - slightly more frames higher up but harder to cross under low

[h2]ATC[/h2]

• Now moves slightly forward on use during active / followthrough, has no net movement change if fully recovers
  
• Increased meter gain on success

[h2]DTC[/h2]Now moves slightly forward on use.

[h2]JTC[/h2]

• Restricted input to only MP + MK, can no longer hold a direction
  
• Adjusted movement for both hop / dash versions
  
• Adjusted active frame hit boxes and duration
  
• Adjusted hit boxes
  
• Adjusted advantage

[h2]Air Normals[/h2]Disabled lower-body hurt box during startup state of all airborne normals.

[h2]Ground Normals[/h2]Rebalanced frame advantage for many normals (DTC included) in order to significantly reduce the amount of -4, -1, +1, and +4 situations. These moments are a bit of a grey area at the moment where the advantaged player is forced to choose their fastest attack (4f attack) in order to get the punish, interrupt, frame trap, or combo. Most of these situations have been adjusted into -5, -2, +2, +5 so that 5f moves can be used more effectively and not trade as often.

[h2]Sweeps[/h2]Adjusted all sweep frame data so that when blocked, cannot have their extended followthrough frames punished by 4f moves.

[h2]Throws[/h2]

• Decreased throw range
  
• Standardized leniency for DTC input on most throws

[h2]Jumps[/h2]All characters have had their jump frames reduced by one and jump arcs slightly lowered (Tyara lost 3).

[h2]INFO[/h2]
Little is known about the origins of Gat, but it's believed he has appeared throughout history to reap from times of chaos. He has returned once more and as the new custodian of Punch Planet.

There is much debate as to whether he is truly immortal or using some form of space wizardry to keep himself alive.

Name : Gat
Age : Unknown
Origin : Unknown
Occupation : Space Wizard
[h2]Health[/h2]

• 1000

[h2]Unique Moves[/h2]

• Coffin Kicks: Down + MK (in air, up to 3x)

[h2]Special Moves[/h2]

• Gem: QCF + Punch
• Prism Cell: QCB + Punch
• Levitate: QCF + Kick (in air)
• Levitate Followups:
  -> Air Reaper: Punch
  -> Air Stake: Kick
  -> Levitate (EX): QCF + 2x Kick

[h2]Super Moves[/h2]

• Gem Lancer: QCFx2 + Punch (Costs 2 Bars)
• Diamond Maiden: QCFx2 + Kick (Costs 4 Bars)

[h2]Notes[/h2]

• Normals can be chained into higher priority normals (Light -> Medium / Heavy, Medium -> Heavy), grounded and airborne
  
• Airborne normals are cancellable into Levitate (Jp.HP exception)
  
• St.MP, Cr.HP, and St.HK are jump cancellable on hit
  

[h2]Stages[/h2]Added Crystal Desert Stage

[h2]Music[/h2]Added Gat and Crystal Desert Stage.

When selecting stage music, can now choose music from other stages.

[h2]Performance Optimizations[/h2]Made substantial optimizations to systems that manage many instances of objects, greatly improving how these objects are cached and used. Collision Box, Projectile, Sound, and Game Effect systems should all have a much smaller per-frame performance footprint, which should improve both normal performance and roll-back performance.



[h2]Priority Trades[/h2]Added priority trade logic to the game. When two attacks collide at the same time, instead of always trading (both hits are applied), the strength of both attacks will be taken into consideration. If one attack has a higher attack strength value (Light -> Medium / Projectile -> Heavy -> Special), that move will win the trade and their attack will land as a counter-hit.

[h2]Hit Stop[/h2]Lowered hit stop across the board, should speed up the game flow quite a bit.

• Light: Remains 6/10
• Medium: Decreased from 8/12 to 7/11
• Heavy: Decreased from 10/14 to 8/12
• Special: Decreased from 12/16 to 10/14
• JTC: Decreased from 12/16 to 10/14
• Throw: Increased from 10 to 12

[h2]Input[/h2]Some adjustments to leniency to make links a little easier and cancels a little more strict (still easy). Also a slight adjust to make DP input slightly more strict.

[h3]Leniency[/h3]

• HitCancel_Normal: Decreased from 8 to 6
• HitCancel_Super: Decreased from 20 to 6
• Link_Normal: Increased from 3 to 4
• Link_Special: Increased from 3 to 8
• Stun: Increased from 3 to 4
• Wakeup: Increased from 3 to 4
• Dash: Increased from 4 to 6

[h3]Sequences[/h3]

• DP_Forward: Decreased buffer frames after last direction input from 8 to 6

[h2]Push Back[/h2]Some slight adjusts to make push back happen a bit faster

• Increased push back scale from 2.75 to 3.0 (moves more each frame)
  
• Decreased push calculation frames from 16 to 14 (happens over less frames)
  

[h2]Positioning[/h2]Increased maximum distance between characters from 23 to 24, this will allow characters to be farther apart than before.

[h2]Character Hit Shake[/h2]Re-enabled and adjusted the character shake that happens when hit collisions occur. Should look better than it did previously and provide some more umfph to attacks, also now applies to the attacker when an attack is parried.




[h2]ATC[/h2]Special moves that are cancelled out of a successful parry will now orient towards the opponent, should help when parrying moves that are hitting right as they cross up.

Also slightly adjusted the freeze / animation ratio when parrying hits, should animate slightly more than before (no functional change).

[h2]JTC[/h2]Quite a few buffs that should help the effectiveness of JTC.

Decreased juggle x-velocity and corner push back, should allow for more followups to land based on positioning.

Improved dash version by increasing distance travelled and cancel window by 2 frames.

[h2]Collision Boxes[/h2]For all body types, extended empty airborne hurt box bottom down from 4.0 to 3.75. Should make it slightly easier to hit airborne opponents before they've pressed an attack.

For Dog body type, slightly extended the width of his standing and crouching hurt boxes by 0.15. Should make him slightly easier to hit on the ground.

[h2]Walks[/h2]Slightly adjusted how the walk ramp works, increased ramp frames from 4 to 10 and adjusted range from [0.25, 1.0] to [0.5, 1.0]. This means it will ramp over more frames total, but it will start at a faster speed (longer ramp from 50% -> 100%, instead of a shorter ramp from 25% -> 100%).

[h2]Throws[/h2]Increased throw tech frames from 7 to 6, a little harder to tech.

Decreased recovery frames on whiff from 23 to 21, a little harder to punish on whiff.

Throw breaks now use the push back system for breaking the two characters apart. This will standardize how throw break movement is applied to all characters, instead of relying on their throw break animation. Also, this allows throw breaks that happen in the corner to apply extra push back and maintain the same break distance regardless of stage position.

Also improved leniency coming out of a throw break to use Special leniency instead of Normal.

[h2]Supers[/h2]Adjusted camera zoom for all Super activations, should look cooler.

[h2]Damage[/h2]Standardized damage systems and removed Global / Character scaling functionality and adjusted new values accordingly. Damage is now strictly calculated by BaseDamage * ComboScaling.

[h2]Meter[/h2]Standardized meter gain on use for all special moves to 100 (some were at 150). Also standardized meter use frame for all EX / Super moves from frame 1 to 2 to avoid extra usage when kara-cancelling.

[h2]Sweeps[/h2]Sweeps have had their block stun reduced across the board and are slightly worse when cancelling into DTC.

[h2]EX Reversals[/h2]Extended hit box bottom on all reversals so that they are not so easily low-profiled, they should hit more often against low opponents.
