BackgroundsBackgrounds are used to display visual novel backgrounds as well as CGs (computer graphics; a common term for full screen art in visual novels that isn't overlaid with sprites). They can be viewed and edited through the background editor.
Replacing
Backgrounds can easily be replaced in the background editor. Simply press the "Replace" button and select a new image file from disk. Images will be automatically resized to match the size of the currently selected background. Background sizes are as follows:
| Background Type | Size (WxH in pixels) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
KINETIC_SCREEN | 256x192 | 16 color images, so make sure your image is exceedingly simple |
TEX_BG | 256x192 | |
TEX_CG | 256x192 | |
TEX_CG_DUAL_SCREEN | 256x512 | Displayed on both screens, but each portion is taller than the full screen (scrolled with BG_SCROLL) |
TEX_CG_WIDE | 512x192 | Displayed on bottom screen, but wider than the full screen (scrolled with BG_SCROLL) |
TEX_CG_SINGLE | 256x256 | Displayed on bottom screen, but taller than bottom screen (scrolled with BG_SCROLL) |
CG Titles
Many CGs have titles associated with them that are shown in the Extras CG viewer. These titles can be edited here.
