Which is better?

In creating a RPG game, u can either maniulate the background tiles or the character moving.

my question is which 1 is better.

And how you implement scrolling in a RPG game

thank for the help!

this may just a be a co-incidence, but is this a college project?
and are you a student in Brazil, doing a Computer Science major, and in your 3rd semester?

if so, you might want to look at the Sun game development forum, specifically, this Thread…

Thank for the help but I am not a student in the college in Brazil. I am a Singaporean studying in NYP( Nanyang Polytechnic).
