  Specify the display scale as a percentage. The setting range is 1 to 4800.

• Billboard Type
  Choose how to display the billboards (flat polygons with the cast's picture attached).

  • Vertical Billboard: The camera is oriented only in the direction of the Y-axis.
  • No Billboard Processing: It does not change direction regardless of the camera's orientation.

• Lighting
  You can specify settings related to lights in the rendering settings and whether they are affected by point lights or spot lights placed on maps.
  It is affected by DoF, BLOOM, and other non-light-related rendering settings.
  Using this function, the following settings can be used to create billboards with the tints of the image applied as they are.

• Y Angle Offset
  When displaying slice animations in 3D space, offsets can be added to determine which frames are displayed at each angle.
  For example, if the number of Y slices in the image is set to 2, the image will be used as "facing south"
  and "facing north" from the top if the Y angle offset is zero, but if the Y angle offset is set to 90,
  the image will be used as "facing east (right)" and "facing west (left)" from the top.
