Yukiko Amagi is a reserved, soft-spoken and shy girl, having been raised at an early age to be a prim and proper lady of traditional Japanese customs. In Persona 4: Dancing All Night, she retains her summer school uniform, but the minor difference is that she wears a pair of red headphones, black knee-length socks and red sneakers. In the epilogue, her hair is up in a neat bun, and she wears a snow white dress with a sky blue cardigan and white sandals. She also wears brown arm warmers, matching pantyhose, and short brown boots. During the winter, she wears a white v-collar top over a red dress white with a belt attached with a ribbon. In Persona 4 Golden during winter schooldays, she wears a beige coat with a red scarf and appears in a white snowsuit on the ski trip. She appears the same in the manga, but her hair is short. When she was a child, from her appearance in the anime, Yukiko had braided pigtails and wore a bright pink dress. In Persona 3 Portable (two years before the events of Persona 4), she makes a brief appearance where she dons a black seifuku uniform and has short hair with a white headband. At the summer festival, she wears a violet yukata with a pink obi. On regular holidays, she wears a red dress and flame scarf, along with black, knee high-boots while on summer holidays, she appears in a black shirt with puffy sleeves, a short white skirt and white sandals. On summer school days, she appears virtually the same, save for that she doesn't wear pantyhose even when inside the Midnight Channel and her sweater is now smaller and unbuttoned. As with the rest of the Investigation team, she wears her school uniform slightly modified, Yukiko wears her Yasogami High School uniform along with a red cardigan sweater with black leggings.

In 2032, the city of San Angeles – a megalopolis formed from the merger of Los Angeles, San Diego, and Santa Barbara – is a seemingly peaceful utopia designed and run by Dr. Both men are sentenced to lengthy terms in the city's new "California Cryo-Penitentiary", a prison in which convicts are cryogenically frozen and exposed to subliminal rehabilitation techniques. The hostages' corpses are later found in the rubble, and Phoenix claims that Spartan knew about them and attacked anyway. When a thermal scan of the area reveals no trace of the hostages, he raids the building and confronts Phoenix, who sets off explosives to destroy it. LAPD Sergeant John Spartan, nicknamed "The Demolition Man" for the large amounts of collateral damage he often causes in apprehending suspects, mounts an unauthorized assault to capture Phoenix. In 1996, psychopathic career criminal Simon Phoenix kidnaps a busload of hostages and takes refuge in an abandoned building. ![]() It earned $159 million worldwide, and was considered a successful film for Stallone.

The part about the deployed version is easy to test. What they may have done is compiled nwjs with the kadokawa information included instead of just downloading a pre-compiled one. Game.exe is definitely just a nw.exe renamed. You'll need to change some stuff in the core code for it to work properly. Upadting pixi and its plugins is a harder task than simply updating nwjs. I am using RMMV 1.6.2, I updated its nw.js framework to 0.43.6 (the latest version that doesn't cause "DevTools failed to load SourceMap" errors in the console- should I also update my pixi.js, pixi-tilemap.js, and pixi-picture.js files as well? If so, which versions should I use? Thank you for taking the time to read my post and I look forward to any knowledge you might be able to kick my way. Is updating nw.js better than downgrading to an older version of the one originally included with RMMV 1.6.2? Would an older version provide the same functionality minus the bloated file size that newer versions carry?.Will a deployed game use the 0.43.6 version that I updated to? What is the "nwjs-win" folder? Do I also need to update nw.js in the "nwjs-win" folder? Since the file Game.exe (located in that same folder) appears to be a custom executable file rather than just nw.exe renamed, how do I go about doing this?.I am using RMMV 1.6.2, I updated its nw.js framework to 0.43.6 (the latest version that doesn't cause "DevTools failed to load SourceMap" errors in the console- should I also update my pixi.js, pixi-tilemap.js, and pixi-picture.js files as well? If so, which versions should I use?.I know there are other methods to shrink the size of your project for deployment, I was just wondering if anybody has tried this proposition before? Has anybody here tried reverting the nw.js including to older versions so as to minimize the deployed file size of their projects? This spells out a bigger total file size for deployed RMMV projects. ![]() Like much other updates of software and frameworks, nw.js seems to be increasing in file size with each improved increment. What is the purpose of this folder? I see that it's Game.exe file is not just nw.exe renamed (as in the "test" folder) because of its custom icon and copyright information (Kadowkawa):ĭoes the version of nw.js in "nwjs-win" affect the version of my project when deployed? What is the purpose of the "nwjs-win" folder?įinally, on the opposite side of the update argument- has anybody tried running their RMMV project using an older version of nw.js, etc. My second big question is, since I am updating nw.js in RMMV's "nwjs-win-test" folder, do I also need to update the files in "nwjs-win" as well? Pixi-tilemap.js seems to have been updated 3 months ago, while pixi-picture.js recommends using branch 4.x from its Git if you're using pixi.js 4.9 and below. there was a pixi.js release on that date too (4.8.9)- would this work without the problems described in Feni圎ngine's guide, or should I use another previous version? Which version? Nw.js 0.43.6 was released on the 17th of January 2020. I am perfectly aware of Feni圎ngine's guide to upgrading PIXI 4.5.4 to PIXI 5.3.0, but I don't want to have to deal with the incompatibility with pixi-picture.js and broken WindowLayer class. The first is, should I upgrade the pixi.js, pixi-picture.js, and pixi-tilemap.js files in my project as well? PIXI.JS, PIXI-PICTURE.JS, and PIXI-TILEMAP.JS Per the guide by Jonforum, I updated my RMMV project's nw.js to a newer version, 0.43.6.Īs of the date of this post, the latest is version is 0.48.1 but running my project on that release produces the following console errors:īased on trial and error, 0.43.6 is the newest version I can run that doesn't cause my project to result in aforementioned problems. While the play test runs well on the latest version of RMMV, there are occasional, bit lags due to the minor alterations I made to the engine's default systems.Īs such, I am attempting to see if any gains can be made by updating the framework RMMV relies upon, nw.js. I am working on a project that rejects RMMV's enervated, default graphics for something a little bit more aesthetically titillating to those with an appreciation of the 16-bit era. I am a user from the third world so I hope that I am able to frame my question in an understandable manner. I apologize and thank you in advance.įirst, please excuse my vernacular.

It’s a bit too big, so I would recommend sizing up just one size from your normal for the perfect slouchy fit. I prefer my cardigans a bit oversized, so I sized up in this, and because they didn’t have a small I grabbed the medium.

However, in the case of allotropic elements, we have to consider the one which is the most energetically stable. Similarly, the standard state of oxygen is its gas form. It means that the standard state of water is in liquid form and not in ice or water vapour. In case of a reaction, all the physical and chemical states have to be in standard condition. The concentration of a solution has to be 1 mol dm⁻³. Instead, it is denoting that, if 2 moles of hydrogen gas reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas, 2 moles of liquid water is made, and 572 kJ heat is created. If you observe the reaction, you will see that the energy is not at any specific substance. For example, record the standard enthalpy change in the reaction between H and O₂ to form water or H₂O.ĢH₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O(I) ΔH⁰ᵣ = -572kJmol⁻¹ In case of this change in a reaction the symbol will become ΔH⁰ᵣ. The symbol of standard enthalpy change is Delta H nought or H. These standard states are also denoted as “reference states”. It refers to a change in enthalpy that occurs in a reaction taking place under standard conditions and where the reactants are in a standard state. This change in enthalpy is represented by ΔH. Therefore, it requires some energy to break the bonds, and in return, some energy is released as well after the product is formed. It happens because, during a chemical reaction, some bonds of reactions need to be broken to produce the product. Hence, its own energy content gets low, according to the fundamental concept of energetics. The reason behind it is if a system participates in a reaction, it releases energy. Also, it is concluded that if the enthalpy decreases, a reaction is successful. The change of enthalpy in a reaction is almost equivalent to the energy gained or lost during a reaction. Where E is enthalpy, U is the internal energy of any system, P is pressure, and V is volume. The enthalpy is represented through the following equation. ![]() There are some molecules that take part in this change are called “ internal enthalpy ” and the molecules that do not are referred to as “external enthalpy”. For example, it increases when heat is added and decreases when heat is withdrawn from that system. Thereby, it changes when heat enters or leaves a system. It deals with the heat contained in any system. Relying on these two factors, a new product is formed through a standard reaction of several compounds.Įnthalpy is defined as a change in internal energy and volume at constant pressure. ![]() Both of them are partly related to each other in a reaction because the fundamental rule of any reaction is releasing or absorbing heat or energy. Enthalpy and Entropy are two significant terms related to thermodynamics. ![]() ![]() ![]() Johnson, who inherited the business in 2004 from her father, Harold E.

Every meat is placed in a custom-built smoker for up to 14 hours, adding the perfect amount of flavorful vapor to brisket, chicken, Texas-style hot links, pulled pork, and even smoked jackfruit for vegetarians.
