This is a sub-page of Proto:Splatoon 2/March 28, 2017.

To do:

  • Lay out hidden debug inputs within this build. This can be things such as how to use debug menus, how to enable button specific debug features (Debug Marching/Leading, Moving, Muteki, Stick Camera, Param), and more.
  • Lay out what is in the debug menus.
    • The "DbgSetting" menu (accessed by holding L + D-Pad Up) and its functions are likely similar to those found on this page.

Dbg[Sys]#

To do:

  • Elaborate further on command functions.
  • Determine what EffectLink, GPUMonitor, and Mem Profile do.

Pressing S on a connected keyboard pauses the game and brings up a list of debug commands.
