Version 1.4.4 of The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak landed on PC on November 10. The patch notes call it a minor update, but it touches things you see on screen: it fixes motion blur that broke when motion-vector-based antialiasing (like DLAA) was introduced, fixes temporal AA and upsampling issues on a few maps, removes a potential crash after saving and optimizes archive loading. If you play with DLAA or on an ultrawide monitor, it is worth having.

What patch 1.4.4 fixes

The notes, signed by Peter “Durante” Thoman, list these changes:

  • Motion blur: works again after breaking with the introduction of motion-vector-based AA, such as DLAA.
  • Temporal AA and upsampling: fixes issues on map geometry in a few specific maps that loop around.
  • Wide and narrow screens: the expanded minimap now keeps the right scaling and aspect ratio, and the background of the battle member change screen displays correctly at ultrawide resolutions.
  • Stability: fixes a potential crash after saving the game and improves behavior when loading saves corrupted by filesystem issues. The developers note they have no known save corruption bugs.
  • Loading: optimizes p3a archive loading and path lookup.
  • Controls and text: fixes the swapped L/R 4/5 button assignment and improves the Japanese strings in the button binding menu.

What to do if the patch causes trouble

The notes give one instruction, for the unlikely event that the update causes a new issue for you: you can revert to the previous “version_1.4.0” branch on Steam.
