Big news, tamers! Today we are bringing [b]Custom Mode[/b], a special game mode available after completing the game. With a Custom file, you'll be able to adjust all manner of settings for a very unique adventure! Things like permanently fainting a Nexomon, randomization, adjusted difficulty and copying Nexomon from other files has been requested a lot, so we've put it all under this system. A lot has changed since our last announcement - you might want to check our Discord server's #timeline channel (https://discord.gg/vVwktEU3FZ) for the most details, but a few things worth pointing out are: [list] [*]Added Japanese, Korean and Chinese Simplified languages. [*]The Legendaries are no longer cosmic-locked. If you have completed all post-game sidequests you can speak to Eliza and ask her to spawn them in the wild! [*]The Database now displays a small "swords" icon, which counts how many times you've defeated a monster. One of its purposes is to improve the cosmic chance for that particular Nexomon. One point per defeat, up to 607 meaning that the new best possible cosmic chance is 1 in 1000. Sadly this counter is not retroactive, your previous battles wouldn't be factored in. [/list] [h2]Custom Mode Settings[/h2] [list] [*] Copy a Nexomon Team from another Save File. [*] Copy a Nexomon Storage from another Save File. [*] Copy an Inventory and Wallet from another Save File. Some items won't be copied (such as charms). [*] Randomize Starters: [list] [*] Only unevolved Nexomon. [*] Include evolved Nexomon.
