What is Parallax Map?
Parallax mapping allows you to design maps in external image editors like Photoshop or GIMP, then export them as layered PNGs for use in RPG Maker. This workflow bypasses tile-based limitations, enabling full control over layout, lighting, shadows, and ambient occlusion, or even more. The result: highly customized, visually rich environments. This is a method that you'll see in most modern games.
