Camera Tool Setting Options†

• Camera List
  Add the camera work you wish to create and specify the camera movement.
  The camera list is largely divided by "default," "battle," and "map event," each of which is a folder for the camera you wish to create and add camera work to.
   
  Default: Default camera setting, this is used if no dedicated setting exists.
  Battle: Battle-related camera settings. Each will be specified according to the timing of the battle.
  Map Events: These are special camera specifications that exist for each map. The default is the standard, and additional camera work can be added as needed. The added camerawork can be called by events.

Battle Camera Settings†

• Interpolation Time from Previous Camera
  Enter the number of interpolated frames for camera transitions in battle when transitioning from the previous camera work to the camera work being specified.

  At the frame specified here, the camera stops until the end of the effect playback.
