Production notes and notes on compatibility

  • In MATERIA, the number of new emails, number of files in network updates, etc., are counted starting from 0.

    SSP and CROW start counting from 1.

    In the case of SSP, setting useorigin1 of SHIORI Resource to 0 will result in the same zero-origin as MATERIA.

  • In MATERIA, surface numbers only go up to 8192.

  • MATERIA and CROW do not allow proper transparency when pna is used for overlay.

  • MATERIA's surface animation wait time is only recognized up to 10.

    To make it longer, continue specifying the same animation multiple times.

  • Files encrypted by dft/dfp/dgt/dgp can only be loaded by SSP and CROW.

  • SSP is slightly faster in animation speed (lighter).

  • The input box of SSP can be used for other operations.

  • SSP and CROW can also use translucency for balloons.

    However, the input box cannot be translucent.

SSP-only features

  • The follow image formats can be handled.

    BMP/PNG/JPEG/GIF/MAG/XBM/PI/ICO/CUR

  • Transparent display with 32bitPNG is possible.

  • The following compressed files can be installed.

    CAB/self-extracting

  • surfacetable.txt (Replaces the surface test window display)

    surfaces2.txt (surfaces.txt that can be overridden for SSP)

    developer_options.txt (Text to specify files to exclude when creating updates2.dau and nar in SSP)
