Version 1.6.2 for Japan. That there was no rassynhron with the version on Steam it was changed for all regions.
But in fact for the remaining regions version 1.6.1

 

[DarkSearinox92]

Future updates? No one?

 

[Alexandr_7]

There will be no more updates for RPG Maker MV. Now it’s official and I think it should be so clear considering the announcement of RPG Maker MZ! It's a shame in short that KADOKAWA is so vile to relate to the audience.

 

[Prescott]

Sorry if I'm necro'ing this but Steam is telling me that an update is REQUIRED for me to launch RPG Maker MV. I'm currently on 1.6.2. I can't find any info on there being an update. Am I good to update it? What's been changed? Is the update real or is this just a weird bug?

EDIT: Accidentally hit the update button lol, the update was 340.7 KB. No idea what it did.

 

[slimmmeiske2]

@Prescott Might have been an update to DLC.

 

[Andar]

@Prescott most likely a DLC update because the newest editor is still 1.6.2 but there was a news on the forum a few days ago about updates to certain packs with the suggestion to redownload them

This version doesn't let run the playtests on Test mode, test is always disabled, I had to downgrade to 1.6.0. Maybe it is related to having a newer nw.js? Which has no sense since I keep getting this warning after the downgrade telling that I'm using an older version?


Please at least fix the test mode bug with a patch, is extremely important. I thought that it was a bug with the demo projects or that the authors of the demo projects I downloaded intentionally disabled it. Also I mainly use MZ since its release, so I found that this issue is related with 1.6.1 right now.

Oh, another thing, the old rpgmaker web version inside the orders page has the W110_Upd for download instead of the W161_Upd.

Hope to get this issue fixed at least, there's still people purchasing MV, and even more after the big discounts.

After downgrade to 1.6.0, I tried to fix the warning by applying the W161_Upd but projects doesn't open at all, so I have to downgrade again and stick with 1.6.0 and the warning.

Another thing I noticed is that 1.6.1 didn't asked me for the key, but 1.6.0 did.

I hope update 1.6.3 or 1.6.4 and more in the future...

@Killuki Zaoldyeck : That bug means that y ou updated the editor but not the project. If your project is outdated testplay will fail. Its well known and has existed since early MV.

As it is I can use 1.6.1 and 1.6.2 just fine so you do need to check your plug-ins and/or how old the files in your project are.

Nope, actually the issue was absolutely unknown and totally unrelated with the projects.

First day I installed 1.6.1, opened a lot of downloaded plugin demos and none were working on test mode.

Today I noticed it, then uninstalled 1.6.1 and reinstalled again, issue was still there.
Then I installed 1.6.0 and was fixed but that error message was showing everytime. Tried to apply 1.6.1 update and then editor just wouldn't launch.

Finally I uninstalled mv again fully, installed 1.6.1 again and.... now it worked? (Yes, I could fix this and I don't even find a proper explanation of how could it be fixed)

The only explanation I may get is that the installer are also installing files OUTSIDE the mv folder, otherwise I can't explain how the Generator folder being the only thing left after each uninstall could affect this xD

My assumption is that the nw files installed on another place (maybe AppData) were replaced between each version install and it got fixed. I don't get it. Is like the issue I had years ago of editor crashing just by moving to different monitors other than the main one which forced me to directly reinstall windows because not even doing a deep uninstall of the rtx2060 card worked.

Anyways, thanks for the tip it could really be related with the issue.

Everything you have done updated the editor only. None of those steps would have updated the project.

And unless they said so, you would have no way of knowing what version those plugin demos used.

I just got an update for MV on Steam today, without any patch notes. (Build ID 8217732). Not Workshop content... Wasn't expecting that! I've been at 1.61 for as long as everybody else, and all my Steam updates are set to automatic.

Any clues, community?

EDIT: It was 389.2 MB, so not just a tiny thing.

v1.6.2 - Update to match Japanese version

Hi Everyone,

Japanese version of RPG Maker MV had to be updated with the closing of a connected service (Opengame creators) to version 1.6.2.

To match this, the English version number was updated, but there is no actual code change beyond that.

Cheers

v1.6.3 - Minor fix to Japanese version only function
The Japanese version was updated today to keep supporting the Atsumaru submission.

It's weird you just got it. 1.6.2 has been out for years, as Silenity pointed out. It doesn't have a thread on here because it's not a required upgrade and has no functionality changes.

 

[C64_Mat]

My mistake - I had been running 1.62. I've only owned MV for two years.

Still, I did get an update for MV today oO

 

[caethyril]

@C64_Mat: do you have any RMMV DLCs on Steam?

@C64_Mat: do you have any RMMV DLCs on Steam?

Oh, yes I do! I have the whole FSM collection at the very least.

Never thought of that. Just noticed it wasn't workshop content.

Sorry for the false excitement
