Quick Start Guide

This section contains information that will help you after purchasing “RPG Developer Bakin”, from the post-installation setup to the actual introduction of game creation. If you are a new user of “RPG Developer Bakin”, please read this page.

After installing “RPG Developer Bakin”, first check the following two settings.

1. Check the GPU Used

When you start “RPG Developer Bakin”, check which GPU your PC is using.
If an onboard GPU is used, the tool may run more slowly, so it is safer to specify clearly that other GPUs should be used when using the tool.

[First Thing to Check]

Launch RPG Developer Bakin and open “Configuration” on the left side menu of the top menu.
Clicking on the “System Report” button within “Configuration” will open a dialog box that will generate a report of your PC environment.
Please check the GPUs listed in the Summary at the top of the report, and if the Highest performing GPU is not displayed for your PC environment, please specify the GPU used below.
