Pbcrazy Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 I was just curious if anybody knew where I could get some top down view graphics. Just something to test around with. Tilesets and accompanying charsets would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruins of Hell Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Google "rmxp sprites" or "rmxp tilesets". Eclipse uses the same format, and there's plenty of nice resources out there. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pbcrazy Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 Aye, that's what I was afraid of… All well, thanks guys. :cheesy: I'll just make some solid colored boxes for testing purposes xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoGames Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 you can try making some they are not hard to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbcrazy Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 Hahaha, I'm afraid I'm not that great of a pixel artist. UI's and such I'm fine with. But tilesets are my nemesis. So, I was just hoping I might be able to find something of better quality than I can come up with.All well, I'll give it a shot. It's going to be nasty. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draken Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 what type of theme? like modern/fantasy ect?top down tiles are very easy to make just can be a pain for buildings since you want it to look 3d so you need to make it more like a 85 angle instead of 90 so you can see the walls just a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbcrazy Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 Fantasy would do. Really just need some grass, bushes, trees/tree stump.To be perfectly honest, I was going to try to create a 2D top down sandbox game stylized after Minecraft (block world, but it would only be seen from top down).

GoGames Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 You mean stuff like that? I made them in like 5 minutes with no shading.>!  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbcrazy Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 Aye, but top down view. As in 90 degrees from horizontal, not the usual 45 in Eclipse games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoGames Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 those are top down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbcrazy Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 No they aren't. Lol, those are from a 45 degree point of view. Top down are 90 degree, or imagine if you were up in the sky, your line of sight would be perpendicular to the ground.The end effect is, you don't see the sides of objects, just their top face.

GoGames Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 depends on your top down view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbcrazy Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 -.- I give up… Lol, I appreciate your help. I'll see what I can come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyoghin Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Top down is the same as birds eye view and there's only one way to see it…Think GTA style(the old school one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbcrazy Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 Aye, that's what I was talking about!Here's a mockup I made, the graphics are ripped from a Minecraft texturepack and then I edited them to work with the view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
