The Special Disk enables several special features:

Custom.exe

Custom.exe contains the following settings:

  • 1. BGM Volume: Use the checkbox to enable or disable BGM, or the slider to alter volume
  • 2. ????

Database

An HTML database is included along with the game's data (use index.html as the starting point). It contains:

  • A full equipment list, with enemies that drop it and their locations
  • A complete enemy database, including skills, stats, and AI notes
  • A spell database for enemy attacks
  • A small library of concept art sketches

Note that images in the database are stored using Japanese characters - therefore, you will need to have your browser viewing the page with Shift_JIS encoding enabled for images to work.

Custom Portraits

The Special Disk contains a folder called CharaGraph. If you put files into this folder, the game will automatically replace the default in-game graphics with these. Each character has three graphics, which should all be transparency-enabled .png files:

  • name_SFace.png - 50x50 - used in menus like Voile and the Hakurei Shrine as the picture on the character list
  • name_LFace.png - 104x112 - the character's status image used as a party member
  • name_Stand.png - 300x360 - the character's full cut-in portrait

Refer to the text file that is in that folder for the names of characters that the game will accept (In general, they're the english names, though some use alternative spellings, like Meirin)

BGM Change

The game now comes with two different BGM sets. You can select which will play by visiting Hieda no Akyuu

  • Special Disc BGMs: A new set of remixes based on Touhou music
  • Ver 1 & Ver 2: The original BGM set

Equipment Selling

Hieda no Akyuu also now handles selling excess equipment, converting them into extra skill points. Note that you specifically can only sell excess equipment - you will be unable to sell an item if you would only have one copy of that item remaining. Every time you sell an item, the Multiplier for that item will increase, making subsequent sales more and more valuable.

Multiple Levelups

When levelling at the Hakurei Shrine, you can use left and right to level up multiple times in a single click, and freely distribute those levels' bonuses among stats as you choose, greatly speeding up the levelling process for later characters.

Gameplay Changes

The following gameplay changes are known:

  • Item drop rates on 20F have become 5%, instead of 1%
