Questions? Concerns? Post them.

i have a question. the background depend on which map you are, right? ok, thats fine. but what about a map with more than 1 landscape. for example desert, snow and forest( on the world map). what to do?

The problem with is, I think RMVX removed Terrain Tag support, which would have been the easiest way to get that done. So if that is the case, you would have to come up with a different way of making it work.

VXTilesetTool allows terrain tags and directional movement.
