New features:

• The Boss Randomizer is now fully implemented and should be playable without issues in all games.
• The OoE World Map Exits Randomizer is now fully implemented and should be playable without issues.
• Implemented inter-area warping in PoR and OoE. Warp points allow you to not only move between warps in the current area, but also any other area. You can cycle through areas by pressing L and R or pressing the arrows on the touch screen.
• Mirror rooms in DoS now show up yellow on the map.
• Added an option for PoR and OoE to make the reminder markers you can place on the bottom screen map menu also show up on the top screen map at all times.
• You can now save the options you currently have selected to a preset file, and then load that file to restore those settings. You can use this to quickly switch between different sets of options, or share the files to share your settings with others without also sharing a specific seed.

Inter-area warping:

Changes:

• The Starting Room Randomizer now always starts you in a combined warp + save room in PoR and OoE instead of just a save room, so that you can immediately warp wherever you want upon returning to your starting room with a magical ticket.

• The UI now disables options that are not for the game you currently have selected.
• The spoiler log is now formatted much cleaner than before. It also does not list options that are not for the game in question.
• Completely rewrote the random item placement algorithm to have better performance and less biased item placements.
• The Cerberus glyphs in OoE are now only placed inside of Dracula's Castle.
• PoR Short Mode now always places 2 of the early game portraits and 2 of the late game portraits to avoid unlucky seeds where you get all hard or all easy portraits.
• When enemies cannot be rebalanced, the Portrait Randomizer now tries to avoid forcing you to go into a late game portrait near the start of a run.
• Added a new "Casual" difficulty which makes enemies a lot easier, for if you just want to explore and not worry too much about combat.
• Renamed "Easy" difficulty to "Normal" and "Normal" difficulty to "Hard" so their names better describe them.
• The Map Randomizer no longer automatically randomizes Portraits and Villagers even when you have those options disabled.
• The room after Flying Armor in DoS now has modified level design that lets you make the jump there easily without needing to backdash jump.
• Backdash jumps are now only required in glitched logic.

• Removed the 60 second time limit on Speed Up in PoR.
• You now start the game with Critical Art in PoR.
• In PoR, Change Cube, Call Cube, Skill Cube, and Lizard Tail are now always given to you in your starting room (instead of sometimes being in their vanilla locations depending on the options you selected).
• The vanilla locations in PoR that had Change Cube and Call Cube are now randomized.
• The 3 easter egg item locations in DoS can no longer have progress items in them.
• The studio portrait in PoR is now always locked behind the sisters fight.
• The randomizer's About dialog now tells you if there is a newer update to the randomizer than the one you're currently using.
• Torpor's damage and iframes are now capped when using the skill stats or skills behavior randomizers.
• Poor Photo in OoE is no longer allowed to restore HP or hearts or give AP since you could easily obtain infinite Poor Photos.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a number of bugs in the Skill Sprite Randomizer, including a bug that could cause crashes on real hardware or skills to not have hitboxes on emulator.
• Fixed a crash that could happen with OoE's glyph puzzle rooms sometimes.
• Fixed the item description reviser uselessly overwriting the descriptions of nonoffensive skills in DoS and PoR.
• Limited the speed multipliers of Brachyura, Eligor, Blackmore, and Arthroverta with the Enemy Animation Speed Randomizer to prevent from them being impossible to dodge and other issues.
• Fixed a vanilla bug in PoR where common enemy versions of The Creature would set The Creature's boss death flag.
• The Map Randomizer now spaces out save and warp rooms better than it did previously.
• Fixed a number of bugs in the progression logic that could cause unbeatable seeds.
• Fixed bugs with the level 3 (fully charged + mastered) versions of Spirit of Light, Stone Circle, and Ice Needle.
• Fixed the Nest of Evil quest not being completable in Short Mode due to not being able to access enough portraits to obtain 888% total map completion. Now only 444% map completion is required in Short Mode.
• Fixed a crash that could happen in PoR's waterwheel elevator room when spamming skills/weapons that produce many particles.
• Prevented Stolas from summoning more enemies that could result in crashes or other bugs.
• Fixed OoE's bad ending cutscene (where it shows the villagers you missed) not working properly when you have Villager Randomizer enabled.
• Fixed a bug in DoS and PoR where getting an ending without having ever saved the game once would default your save to the first accessible save room in the vanilla game, which is not necessarily the first accessible save room when maps or the starting room is randomized. Now it defaults your save to the room you actually started in when one of those options is enabled.
• Fixed 100% map completion in DoS being unobtainable if Starting Room Randomizer was on but Map Randomizer was off.
• Fixed several visual oddities in Dialogue Randomizer.

• Added a new tweak to allow Charlotte to master skills. If Charlotte masters a skill and uses it half charged, it will act fully charged instead. If Charlotte masters a skill and uses it fully charged, it will act supercharged instead, dealing even more damage than when fully charged, and adding more projectiles than normal or becoming larger than normal depending on the skill.

• Armor will no longer directly add to your ATK stat in PoR.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed various bugs that could cause softlocks in map randomizer.

Note: This is an outdated version. The latest version of DSVania Randomizer can be downloaded here: https://github.com/LagoLunatic/dsvrandom/releases/latest

New features:

• Added a new Map Randomizer. This procedurally generates entirely new map layouts out of the game's existing rooms.
• The Starting Room Randomizer, Room Connections Randomizer, and Area Connections Randomizer options are fully functional now, with countless bugs fixed so getting softlocked should no longer be possible with them.
• Added a new Portrait Randomizer in PoR. It shuffles the locations of portraits so that they can be in any location that had an item in the original game.
• If you have any of the above five options selected, you will start the game with an infinitely usable magical ticket in your inventory. If you appear to get trapped in a pit somewhere and think you're stuck, you can use this magical ticket to return to your starting room.
• Added a new Short Mode game tweak in PoR. This removes 4 random portrait areas from the game. Unlocking Brauner is done by beating the bosses at the end of the 4 portraits that were not removed (not counting Nest of Evil).

Changes:

• Easter egg items in DoS (Konami Man, Bell, and Crown) are now randomized.
• The Shop Randomizer in OoE now randomizes the items in the shop from the start of the game and the items added when you beat Maneater and Goliath. (Previously it only randomized items added to the shop when you complete quests.)
• Split the Item Stats/Behavior randomization option into three options: Equipment Stats, Weapon Behavior, and Consumable Behavior. Furthermore shop price randomization is now part of the Shop randomizer instead of the Item Stats/Behavior randomizer.
• The DoS Weapon Synth randomizer now orders items from worst to best, so upgrading an item now always guarantees the item will be at least slightly better than before.
• Fixed bugs with the enemy animation speed randomizer, and added a difficulty setting to change the average speed multiplier.
• In OoE, Arma Felix, Cat Tackle, Moonwalkers, Mercury Boots, and Winged Boots are now considered progress items as there are some jumps you can make with them.
• Death Ring in OoE can no longer appear from a random enemy drop or random green chest spawn (but can still be placed in the world).
• Normal difficulty is now less of a huge jump in difficulty compared to Easy difficulty.
• Shop prices are now more affordable.

• Fixed a bug with the DoS luck fix game tweak where negative luck would underflow during item drop chance calculations.
• Fixed an error when trying to randomize OoE without Open world map checked.
