what I was experimenting with is that I make the map, make a map screenshot and work from there...making a parallax layer, overlay layer and so on, while editing the layers, adding details, etc.

How does Tiled help with parallax mapping?

Or rather, do we have any tutorials focused on RM map development using Tiled?
