sickporsche Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Not too bad.Too many logs, and the path way that meets the grass needs to be transitioned better. Aswell as the square box on the right. Too many grass pedals in the box on the right. The tree shadows are ugly.Add some more ground effects example: flowers, tree leafs, dirt spots, etc..

sickporsche Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Starting to look better. Fix the pathway its too blocky and try to get some grass to pathway transitions, and the tree shadows are horrible.You are on the right track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sickporsche Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Here is a random picture I found on google.Take a look at the pathway on how the end of the grass is rounded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fix the pathway its too blocky and try to get some grass to pathway transitions, and the tree shadows are horrible.> > You are on the right track.1\. I know its blocky but in order for me to not make it so blocky I'd have to do my own tiles which I can't do, :(2\. Explain a little more about transactions, Like I mean I don't know Exactly what you mean by it.3\. Can I take out the shadows?? lol I mean the shadows make sense cuz trees do create them, also this is the Default tilesets, remember thatl olEDIT: Oh I see what you mean but i dunno if I can do that with the default tiles, but ill see if I can.EDIT 2: Yeah I cant do that with default tilesets…. I could get some more if I really wanted to but this is as best I can do with the default ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sickporsche Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Yes indeed trees do cast shadows, but those shadows are just horrible. I remember the default tileset someone fixed the shadows, not exactly sure who did it, but try to search the resource forum.And example of transitions is in the picture above that I posted.

Chief Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 transitions are included in the default tileset. How about you actually try looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodmorphed Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 anyways ir doesnt matter, i got new ones that I cant figure out how to use either lol its half tile transacrions are kinda weird. and i cant get it to turn right it leaves a haalf tiled space.Oh I figured it out, took a bit to figure out the angling of it though and the layering.

Drummerpete Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Spread out the trees more.The path is too straight and needs more transition.Apart from that, it seems like a pointless map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was made with nothing in mind, also… trees overlap in real life, so why not here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shwamshwam1 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I think that the maps are too linear (shown in diagram below)Maps need to look naturalistic, because everything in nature isn't straight, make the maps seem a bit less ordered and a bit more random, if you know what I mean.
