- Ys X Version 1.0.8 Release Notes - 11 November 2024
Hi everyone, today we are releasing a minor patch for Ys X: Nordics, which addresses the following issues: Resolved a crash which could occur in the ship loadout menu when using the mouse to change the selected slot. Fixed dialog message and selection window placement for very narrow or wide aspect ratios. Eliminated graphical shadow artifacts which could occur temporarily after changing the aspect ratio or field of view, before loading a new map. Improved some text in the French and English localizations. As always, if you want to revert to the previous version for any reason, you can do so using the Steam "Beta" feature. Cheers, Peter "Durante" Thoman
- JRPG Ys 10: Nordics comes to PC with a heap of PC-specific features - 27 October 2024
The Ys games (it rhymes with "peace", you're welcome) are a series of JRPGs that go back to 1987, and have recently begun receiving English localizations sooner than they used to . The latest example of that is Ys 10: Nordics, which just released in English following a Japanese/Korean/Chinese PC port in March of this year... Read more.

- A Tour of the PC Features of Ys X: Nordics - 25 October 2024
Hi everyone, I've previously talked about the optimization of our port, as well as the coop feature in some detail. In this final in-depth post about our version of Ys X, I want to provide an overview of some of the features of the PC version. I'll start with some highlights, and there is a more complete list for reference at the end of this post. Draw Distance Draw distance is really important to me personally, as I am quite easily distracted by pop-in. In Ys X, we have three separate settings governing various aspects of draw distance, and in the image above you see a comparison between all of those at their default setting (left) and at the maximum (right). Note how this significantly affects three aspects: The visibility of characters -- such as the fisherman and his dog on the left, the lookout in the center, and Magni at the right. The rendering of decorative "clutter" geometry, s…

- Demo Version 1.0.4 Patch Notes - 20 October 2024
Hi everyone, today we are releasing another patch for the Ys X: Nordics Demo. Here is the full list of general changes and improvements: Fix a very rare crash which could occur during game startup. Update the Steam Deck controller button glyph for the "View" button (was previously based on the pre-release Steam Deck design). Improve rounding when scaling render targets, potentially very slightly increasing quality where there was an off-by-one sizing error before. Some minor text fixes (Japanese, French and English). Fix Japanese UI text font in some situations. Remove the "Portrait Supersampling" option. MSAA/SGSSAA now also applies to the scenes where this applied, so it is rather superfluous and could lead to excessive VRAM usage. If you have a lot of VRAM and for some reason really want to render e.g. 16 samples for every single pixel on the equip screen you can still access it via…
- Ys X is going to feature local coop at launch on PC! - 18 October 2024
Hi everyone! I am really happy to announce that Ys X: Nordics will support local cooperative play for 2 players at launch. Before moving on to discussing the feature in more depth, there are a few very important facts I need to clarify: This is still an experimental, unofficial feature, developed by me personally with a budget of 0 €, and some pretty wild hacks. While the standard single-player game has had many full passes from dozens of in-house and external beta testers, to the best of my knowledge the only people who completed the entire game in coop are my friend and I. Please keep that in mind. With that out of the way, let's talk coop! Background & Development Those who have been following the franchise on PC for a while might know that we first introduced local coop in our patch for Ys VIII. It was an extremely experimental feature, restricted to just combat areas, but a core gr…
- Demo Version 1.0.2 Patch Notes - 16 October 2024
Hi everyone, today we are releasing a minor patch for the Ys X: Nordics Demo. The primary goal is to fix a specific type of startup crash that could happen on some systems with a slightly outdated Visual C++ Redistributable package. This issue could be solved by manually updating the package, but we were also able to work around it at the game level. Here is the full list of changes: Fix a potential crash on startup on systems with slightly outdated Visual C++ redistributables Fix a packaging issue which caused the demo to show Japanese text in one event in chapter 3 Minor updates to some dynamic button prompt placements in tutorial screenshots Correctly save the "additional footholds" choice selected at the start of a game Fix an afterimage effect with Mana Seed Divination Cheers, Peter "Durante" Thoman

- Японцы посрамили Ubisoft: Обзор Ys X: Nordics - 14 October 2024
Nihon Falcom - одна из старейших японских компаний, занимающихся jRPG. По влиянию на жанр она лишь немного уступает Square Enix. Отличие только в том, что Final Fantasy довольно быстро стала мейнстримовой, тогда как команда из Татикавы сфокусирована на бюджетных разработках, окучивая японский рынок. Несмотря на это, в последние годы на Западе выросла популярность ее двух основных серий - Trails и Ys . Нюанс в том, что постороннему человеку погрузиться в них проблематично.

- The Ys X: Nordics PC Optimization Journey - 14 October 2024
Even more so than for the turn-based JRPGs we frequently work on, solid performance is essential for a fast paced action RPG like Ys X. In this post, I'll briefly outline the various optimizations we made to the PC version of the game over the development period of our port. The Overall Timeline Let's not bury the lede and instead jump right to the results: The image above shows performance at a fixed, very challenging benchmarking spot (see below for details). To give you an idea of the time scales here, 0.1 was released into beta at the end of July, 0.2 was just a few days later, and we reached version 0.8 in the middle of September. This is a spot in Balta Island which we found to be the absolute worst-case in terms of CPU-bound performance. All settings are at their maximum, except for resolution and anti-aliasing, to make sure that the game is CPU-bound. We load into a fixed save a…
