Map Settings Palette †

Specify basic settings such as map size and background music to be used, as well as rendering settings and enemy distribution settings.

Basic †

Specify basic information about the map you are editing.

• Map Name
  Specify settings for the name of each map.

• Name
  Specify the name of the map being edited.

  Layout ToolThe map is displayed according to the layout specified in the "Display Map Name" screen.

• Texture Settings
  Specify settings related to textures to be used on the terrains.
  A value smaller than the texture of the terrain stamp results in a rough resolution rendering.

• Resolution

• Cluster Size
  This function divides the terrain into several blocks (clusters) to avoid rendering unseen terrain and improve rendering performance. The appropriate size depends on the field of view of the camera in the game.
  In addition, the differences by value are as follows:

• High in Value
  Large block size. Local light effect allocation may be limited.

• Low in Value

Map †

Specify the map screen to be displayed in the "Map" menu during the game.
The "Map" section displays an image of the "map" the player is currently on, viewed from above.
This tab allows you to specify the display range of that "map".
("map" is displayed when the special format \mappreview is specified in the Layout Tool with the panel for rendering strings).

In some cases, there are areas of the map that you do not want the player to see in order to create a visual effect that expresses the depth of the map, or for the purpose of producing effects or events.
By specifying values on this tab, you can limit the area of the "map" that is displayed during the game.

  If the value is large, the area that should have a shadow will not have a shadow. If the value is small, a moiré pattern will appear.

• Shadow Caster Margin

  More than 1 can also be specified.

• Damping Degree by Y Coordinate
  Using height 0 as a reference, the higher the height, the thinner the fog.
  If this value is 0, the density is determined by the distance from the camera, regardless of height; a value greater than 0 will narrow the density in the height direction.

• Start Distance
  Specify the distance from the camera at which the fog will begin to be applied.

• Maximum Difference
  Specify the upper limit of the distance between surrounding pixels and each other that determines whether the pixel being judged is in a shadow casting relationship with the surrounding pixels.

• Darkness
  Specify the degree to which the SSAO function is applied.
