Sable's Grimoire update for 22 August 2021

This update wound up being bigger than intended. TL;DR: it contains Eris's route and a new ending for Eth/Rei's route.

Eris's route is a bit less focused on her than some other routes are on their heroines. However, Eris's route is roughly twice as long as the others, so it should even out.

What's new?

• Eris's route
• Another ending for Eth/Rei
• 4 CGs
• 4 music tracks
• 5 backgrounds
• 2 character sprites
• 3 achievements
• 3 endings
• 4 checkpoints on the route map

What's changed?

• Removed a dead link from the credits page
• Updated sprite sizes and positioning, so characters actually appear to have different heights now
• Fixed a bug with NVL mode scrollback
• Typo fixes
• Changed where the route map checkpoint at the start of Eth/Rei's route takes you
• Recoded remaining sprites to use the game engine's newer format. This is a change which was started in v1.06 and should help to speed things up. Particularly when loading checkpoints on the route map.
• Updated classroom music track. Some players noticed a "popping" sound at one part of the track. The updated version shouldn't have that.

Separate from the new build, achievement images on Steam have been updated. Steam now allows images up to 256px in size, rather than the old 64px size limit. So all achievement images have been replaced with higher res versions.

The game's OST has also been updated with the fixed classroom track, and the 4 new tracks.

What's broken?

• If you load a save game from version 1.07 or earlier, and there were character sprites on the screen, they will initially be sized/positioned incorrectly. This is due to the character size and positioning changes made in this version. They will fix themselves as soon as the character is moved or shown/hidden.
• Lisha's uniform being shown instead of her elven outfit fixed in version 1.08.1
• Lisha's elven outfit being shown instead of her underwear fixed in version 1.08.2
• One instance of Sable's side sprite showing at a reduced size fixed in version 1.08.3
• Two instances of Drakan's side sprite showing the wrong image fixed in version 1.08.3

If you find any inconsistencies or problems with the new route (other than the bug mentioned above), or the game in general, please report them so I can fix it up.
Ideally, errors should be reported here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/717850/discussions/0/1692669912393326000/

If you encounter any game-breaking bugs, please report the problem, then use the "oldstable" beta in the meantime. The oldstable build is the previous version (1.07).

What about consoles?

This update is currently in the process of being ported by Gamuzumi (who publish the console release of Sable's Grimoire), after which the new build will need to be approved by the respective consoles.

What's next?
