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 the "danger_portrait_supersampling" option in the settings file.
There are also some coop-specific changes:
- Improve the behaviour when falling off cliffs with both characters. (Prevent a potential long falling and warping loop)
- Disable automatic camera adjustments in coop, regardless of setting. This is very distracting in coop, and as explained in the previous post on this feature, the suggested method is to have one player in charge of the camera.
- Tune the chain power parameters to be slightly more effective more quickly. Previously it was possible to get to a distance of >30 meters between the characters with some deliberate movement, this should now be impossible.
- Prevent coop in a few very small maps, where it is also not meaningful.

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The primary goal is to fix a specific type of startup crash that could happen on some systems with a slightly outdated Visual C++ Redistributable package.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.
