EasyRPG Player is back, the arrival of a stable version of this software is always an event, enough to maintain all the features of the original design RPG Maker 2000 and RPG Maker 2003.As all platforms are affected, including PC and Linux, it is worth remembering that for our consoles this program concerns the Nintendo Switch, the Nintendo 3DS and its derivatives, the Nintendo Wii, and the PlayStation Vita.

With this update, games can now be loaded from LZH archives, as announced with the Wii U port.

There have been several adjustments specifically for the Wii: The port works again thanks to the use of the correct byte order. The switch to SDL2 allows for a higher rendering resolution, but comes with a slight performance loss of about five FPS. To prevent further slowdowns, V-Sync is disabled by default. A new, more powerful audio backend is also used. Crashes when booting from a USB stick without an SD card are a thing of the past, and logging has been removed to protect the file system in the event of a crash.

Screenshot colors have been corrected on Wii and Wii U.

Two issues have been fixed on the 3DS: loading saves no longer causes a crash and screen transitions display correctly without a blue cast.

Last but not least, the Switch version no longer crashes after exiting sleep mode.
