LaurenciaX Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 Di-lang, best thiefs on their continent, who have their encampment near the island of Dywende, with whom they have disagreement about this forest.(If it was important to you.)

Guest Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I feel that if it were a forest, there would be less lighter, maintained grass. I feel that the darker green wild grass should be more common. Also, the pond or lake on the bottom is too squarish. AND MORE TREES!! IF ITS A FOREST THAT IS… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that the darker green wild grass should be more common. Also, the pond or lake on the bottom is too squarish. AND MORE TREES!! IF ITS A FOREST THAT IS…OK, step by step…I will see what can I do with the grass, but if it(long grass) would be everywhere, it would look quite repetitive.About the lake-the map (and the lake) is so big that it couldn't fit in one screenshot.So in reality lake isn't squarish at all.And about trees-good advice,but I want that players still have enough place to walk.I will update picture with corrections.

Sage Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I honestly prefer the first one more; I think it looks perfect for a forest. The second one has TOO many trees imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Less trees.More detail on grass and surroundings.Putting more trees to cover the bland ground is like wearing an opera mask to give your boring personality some life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaurenciaX Posted October 19, 2010 Author Share Posted October 19, 2010 And what am I supposed to do now?Which one is the right opinion?I will try to find the golden path between these two and will update my post.(3rd time, doh..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Comnena Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 They are alright, but you should space out the trees a little bit (especially if you only use 1 tree sprite).A couple tips, you shouldn't have the same detail object directly in a row with another one of the same type (for example, the stumps in 2 of your images). Stagger them around a bit for a more organic looking effect, this is the same with any natural object, not just a stump or bush. Also you should add more than one tree type.Basically the thing with tileset mapping, is you want to try to limit repetition as much as possible, while at the same time maintaining a consistant graphical theme. I think you have it in general, you just need practice.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaurenciaX Posted October 20, 2010 Author Share Posted October 20, 2010 OMG, OMG ^.^ Anna Comnena said something to me,AND said something good about me!Ok, if serious-thanks for advice, but in 3rd,latest picture I didn't make anything in the same row and (hopefully) spaced trees out enough,so…For now I'll leave the third version.
