Meiscool, that if f-ing huge.  Good job.

Meiscool: At first I didn't like it at all, but after doing rips from SD3 myself, YOUR maps blow the professional maps away. They seriously look better. Nice Job!

Bluhman: I like it. A little spacious for me but it works well. I'd just put events in like birds and stuff.

I got rid of my old intro. I'm going with this new one. I'm hoping for it to be scarier and darker. This will be the first map you see in the game. Can anyone give me some help with this?



It's supposed to be a makeshift prince's room. Thinking like the king just moved in, so they didn't have time to make it look so dark. Any advice? I can get the sprites easily.

When I'm done, I'll tint the screen dark and add things like rain outside the window, the FF6 Thunder clouds, the people, and some lighting effects.

[Tomi]

Yes, lighting effects would add a lot.  It looks pretty good.

I'll show you what I do with interiors:

In almost ALL my interiors, I have candles. I mean, they didn't exactly have lights back then. Also, the candles have a flickering light charaset above them that's transparent. Lastly (and you can't see this in the screen) I have the tint change from 100,100,100,80 to 100,100,100,100 continously, to make it look like the light is actually flickering.

Add it if you wish.

Nice Meis. Like your charsets.

I made a crappy hotel, didn't like the way it came out.

[Tomi]

The depth of things is kinda confusing, but its not too bad.

[aboutasoandthis]

I posted this before Tomi but I kept getting an error page.

The only major problem I see would be in the front with the 2 blue walls. They and there waterfalls just need an extra square. I just don't like that chipset used that way. Meh.

After going to hell and back, I finally managed to put the special effects in. I'm not sure now whether to put in the thundercloud still. Maybe a flash of lightning instead?



Which reminds me Meis, I tried the light flicker thing. It looked really ugly. I don't have any real blue in my picture. It just took the white and made it yellow. Trust me, it hurt my eyes.

another edit

Sorry you can't see it. There's supposed to be rain outside the window, every light animated, and animated fire.

Well, my style is always very spacious. Not sure why. I used to be a LOOOOOOT worse.

I hope that map is not up for critique.

No. It's up for comparison.

Robotam: You need to move the doorway back a bit. Then it will look a lot better. Least IMO.

BTW, I just noticed that the Interior I posted is a "bit" outdated.

[drenrin2120]

I did the best I could with the floor tiles, only light and dark grass or gravel to choose from. What do you think?

[Linkizcool]

Not bad. Some charsets could spice it up, though.

lol, yeah, it's not 100% done. Just the chipset part is. I posted it cuz it took me a while and I wanted to know what you guys thought of it thus far.

[Meiscool-2]

You should edit the chipset to include a flower floor tile. That would make it look a little more "regal".
