This mod reverts an odd (often-criticized) design decision with DQ3 HD, whereby the characters normally disappear during the "action" phase of battle.
It is believed that the developers did this to minimize time creating various animations, but many players feel like they would rather see their characters during battle.
With this mod, you will be able to see your characters during the entirety of battle. Later updates may also change the battle camera to remain in a more intuitive "top-down" position as well (as seen during the "command" phase of battle).
