As for the CMS, I would put health effecting condictions (like poison, burn, ect) under the HP, vemon and magic leak under MP, and freeze and sleep on the sprite.

A cool status effect that you should add too is bleeding or severed vain.

EDIT: as to my thingies looking small, remember that when playing full screen, it's 400% normal size.

Bleeding hmn, let me think about it.
**** no. My game will have its sick, disgustingly violent, disturbing, and questionable moments, but I can't see how it's a good idea. This is from a programming percpective. Unless I do something like halve the speed or something, what's the difference between it and poison?

I do like the changing the charaset idea though. Still, what if they had more than one condition that animates it like that? I'm using pictures there and I don't want to make all those animations.

Whatever happened to Robotam?

Well, what's worse: Poison that you can heal with an antidote, or a severed artiary/vain that you can heal with.... a trip to the doctor? Wow, that's really out of the way... and nasty sounding. You might even have to pay a large fee to have that fixed. *HINT HINT*

Anyways, I just made it a really nasty version of poison. I also used custom coding to where if your party takes more then 500 steps or goes 15 minutes without having it fixed, the character dies, and if you revive him, he still has the condiction (that took custom coding too.)

ROFL okay you convinced me. I'm already planning working banks, and calender events. Why not throw in a hospital?

It's been awhile.. so... I just finished this map.

Many of you have seen a map that looks similar to this that I made, same houses, almost same water effects, and same mountainous area. Well, it's ment to basically be the same map, only several years before that map.

Besair!









Yes, I know I have plants growing on the buildings. I like it that way.

Very nice, but maybe, a tad bit too crowded. Maybe, at first, use more tiles than you're expecting to use, so you have room to work with. Like, you're making a 50 x 50 map, but you make it 80 x 80, just in case it turns out to be a little bigger.

[Robotam]

I can stand still for two hours looking gazing at those maps, Meis; and I still wouldn't find anything worth to complain about. Can't think of anyway to surpass you now. :p
Awesome buddy.

No worries there. I took extra time to make sure that citizens can never get in your way while walking (as in consealing a path and you having to wait for them to move out of the way to get by), and there are several paths you can take to get from place to place, most are by the pillars.

Jigga wah!?

You using that site I gave you? Perfection.

[X_marks_the_ed]

I know It's not perfect, i'm just showing what reading Meiscool's tutorial did for me.

EDIT: Oops! I just noticed that Nemi is standing ON the bush! XP

Some pointers.

The maps not bad, but that chipset is.
Notice how the two dead trees line up vertically parralel? Trying moving one of them. When they line up it creates an odd affect and can dispell the sense of multiple ground levels. Try more variations in grass tiles, dirt, etc.

Other than that, not bad.

[aboutasoandthis]

I'm still here so I thought I'd give opinions. And don't worry about the girl.

Okay, there are some nice things in this map. You have some slopes to the right (flat land raised one level up with some empty spots).  In fact, I like the right side. I don't really like the left side though.

The elevation is too high for me. It just looks ugly. And I don't like that second sign on top of the cliff either. The sign in the middle of the screen looks good to me though.

I noticed the tree in the middle that is missing its left branches. I think you wanted to make it look like it was smushed up against the cliff but, can you please take it out? It just doesn't look right there.

My suggestions:
+Move some of the trees around.
+Lower the elevation by at least 4.
+Add more random levels.
+Take out that second sign on the cliff.
+Add more events like animals and stuff.

You might wanna wait for a second opinion from someone like Meiscool or Robotam. They're better with Mac&Blue chipsets than I am.

YES! I used that site to create the chipset for that map. It's 4 chipsets in one, and I have an event switching the chipsets so that every damn speck of water in that map is animated.

As for Mac, I'll let Robotam handle that. I think he's better with Mac then I am.

Here's a new pic of my favorite place in Wizen Heights.



I need tips for what I can do to this palce to make it better. I've got butterflies, Brids, and monsters that run around. But it's lacking something, something to make it stand out.
