1. add virtual joystick, once switch to virtual joystick ( by long press the game item on the home list), the game control on the screen will be changed to joystick when you play the game
2. optimized the game import speed, will be almost 10x faster than previous version
3. fixes some known issues
Notice: only when you find the game could not be played, such as "black screen", you could try to play the game with "desktop mode" or "low resolution", or else, you just do not need to switch to these modes, it may or may not break the game if you force to use those modes when the game was already ok to play.
The operation could not be revoked when you switch to joystick, desktop mode, low resolution, so we suggest that you could import the game twice or more, just check which mode you would like to go, then delete others before you start to play the game deeply.
Always be aware of that to get the game progress saved into disk, you need to save the game progress from game part firstly, then press "...", press "Exit The Game", then the game progress will be saved into disk.

enhanced the game save logic
enhanced some UI
fixes some known issues
add desktop mode (when the game could not run in RPGEmu, you could switch to desktop mode, then retry to play the game)
add low resolution mode (when the game could not run in RPGEmu, you could lower resolution, then retry to play the game)
in most cases, you do not need to switch to desktop mode or lower resolution, only when you find that you could not play the game, you can try to play the game with these actions
just import the game.zip twice, one set to desktop mode, another low resolution, if both of them could not run still, you could feel free to contact with us then

fixes some known issues.
accelerated the game import process, especially when deals with game audio assets, new version uses AudioToolBox to optimize the file process, however, for large file such as 5GB, it will still need some minutes.
new version also fixed the game save logic error for some games.
Notice:
If the game could not be played in previous version, you could try to import the game.zip into RPGEmu again, the new version may be able to play it now.
And if you want to make sure your game.zip is played with latest version, you need to export the game save file, import the game.zip, then import the game save file.

fixes some known issues.
enhanced the app's compatibility for more games.
notice:
1. when your mv game includes .webm codec is not [vp9, vp8, av1], the game import process will need more time to finish.
2. we find MZ Game may try to play video before user tap gesture, which is not allowed in modern web page, so we blocked the video to play before user tap the web page, you will see a black screen when you opened the game, follow the tip displayed, try to tap the black screen, you may need to tap the edge of the screen, after you tapped the black screen, the game should start to play, we have tested some games, try to tap the screen edge or center, all of them played ok.

add support to modify the game name and icon on the home list
just long press the item, will show a context menu, then you could modify the game name and icon

Note: when you transfer the game file, do not leave the RPGEmu's screen, or else, the app will terminate the transfer process then crash.
add supports for RPG Maker MZ games [MZ Game]
add key map customization for virtual key "Up" and "Down", kindly note that not all games require all virtual keys, so, if you find that when you pressed the key, nothing happened, that's an expected behavior, that means the game does not need that virtual key.
we added this new feature, as some users say his game needs the virtual key "E", in the new version, now you could map the key "Up" to "E", so you get the key "E", of course, you lost of the key "Up", and we find the key "Up" is not that necessary , as it just does PageUp work.

one of our users said he could not play his game, the new version will be able to play his game

built with Xcode 26, some UI will be Liquid glass style.
enhanced the app's support for large game.zip file.
Note: when the file is larger than 1 GB, it may take minutes to import the game file into the app, we have tested a 1 GB file, it takes 3 minutes to finish the import process.

use iOS 18 translation API, you now could play this app in your local language in most case.
Enhanced the game save logic, now it will be saved progress when the app goes into background or you explicit pressed "Exit The Game" button (of course, you must save the game into File firstly from the game part "save").
Notice:
this app is for RPG Maker MV games only, RPG Maker has many products, try other RPG Maker games which not MV will get no luck.
Anyway, there're still many games made with RPG Maker MV, just enjoy it!

added support for .rar game file
now you could import .rar game file or .zip game file once you downloaded them with Safari
please note, make sure you downloaded .zip or .rar is windows pc version, other platform version maybe not work
fixes some known issues
notes: If you think the game file is a RPG Maker MV file, and RPGEmu should be able to play it, while the emulator could not, do not hesitate to let us know by sending email(what we need is 1.game file or game file download link, 2. how to get the issues)
before you do this, please make sure you are using the latest version

add support for exporting and importing game save file
detail:
you could export the current game save file, then load the game save file back
situations you maybe need this feature as follow:
1. you export the game save file from iPad, and send the file to your iPhone, once the game is the same game, you could load the save file back at your iPhone
2. you could even load the save file generated by other apps, once the save file is RPGEmu expected format (.zip, and after extracted, the file should be global.rpgsave, file1.rpgsave, file2.rpgsave...)
The new feature will help you continue the game progress without playing the game from beginning again.

enhanced the game audio experience on iPhone
in previous version, we solved the issue that audio will be unexpected muted on the iPad, however, that's not enough, when on the iPhone, the issue is still there, this version will fix this bug
still, as WKWebView limitation, when you leave the app long time, you must save the game progress, restart the app to continue the game progress
in this version, we also put the game control button upper than before when you are in landscape mode (only for the iPhone), we think it is necessary, or else the RPG text content maybe obscured by the controller.
Added the "F3" key, it will help you make the game's rendering is correct, so that you can play the game more smoothly.

enhanced the game audio,
especially when you put the app in background, then bring it into foreground, in previous version, the audio will be muted, now, after our hard working, the web audio is very similar with the native audio, it will resume playing now.
however, if you leave the app long time, the built-in server maybe shut down, that's unexpected error, just save the game progress, reboot the app, continue the game will be fine.
for some tutorial text, we used the iOS 18 translation API, just download the translate model, enjoy the local language then.

updates some text in product page and app's tutorial page

added app local language support for many countries
though the product display page is English, once you installed the app, you could use the app with your local language in most cases
