Chakkra Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 Not very great mapping but here's just a random teaser map for First Star Online: Beyond (A revamp project) Not sure if going the Eclipse route yet, just used it to make the map.Mostly showing off the graphics.

luriok Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Welcome back chakk :PAnyways the graphics look pretty good although some of the trees seems too small. I really like the wooden house btw. You need a better transition from grass to cliff, its overlapping right now.As for the mapping, its not that bad but the rocks in the water look repetitive right now.

Jeff Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Cliff seems a bit too contrasty, it stands out quite a bit. Some of the trees and the rocks on the water are having a similar problem, though to less of an extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaaron Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 the cliffs kinda look like there made of dirt clods. needs to be more of one solid mass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Knight Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I like the looks of this game. Fix the sign on the building and you're golden in my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lollicat Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Cacti are a bit small, especially compared to everything else.Also, some of those rocks aren't yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khazer Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 very nice, are you using the fso engine for your game or eclipse? Iv been debating what i want to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Cliff tile should be more diverse, water could use more detail(tile) otherwise goodjob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chakkra Posted August 6, 2012 Author Share Posted August 6, 2012 These tiles are all a revamp of the original FSO tiles so obviously some aren't going to look original and obviuosly some are from that old tileset haha.We are developing a new engine based in director. Originally it was supposed to be "FSO4" but since has been put into a spin-off project.Also, the style of the graphics is that every tile fits into a 32x32 square besides the "big tiles" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 The quality of the tiles are completely inconsistent.The huge rocks have great dithering, good palette, and great shading. Then the little gray rocks on the ground are very noisy and have no hue shifting. The cacti have little depth and no hueshifting as well. Then your dark gray rocks have too much contrast, no dithering, and no hue shifting. Overall it looks like you're just completely mixing tilesets.Also I don't like the dunes. I don't think they have enough build up or something, they look off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chakkra Posted August 6, 2012 Author Share Posted August 6, 2012 @Eckhart it's funny because every tile you stated that looks "off" or "bad" are the originals that I haven't revamped yet :P (The cacti, the dark gray rocks) I wasn't planning on revamping those certain ones because I thought they looked fine and didn't need to be redone, but guess not haha! Off to spriting world.Edit: About the dunes, what do you suppose I should change about them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vus Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I like it so far, keep up the good work. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chakkra Posted August 6, 2012 Author Share Posted August 6, 2012 Soooo i made brand new cacti and the "dark" rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Needz moar Hue shifting, or the boulders need less hue shifting.I don't know how to fix the dunes, sorry. Maybe if you made them more gradual it would help. Also, dither them more. Sand is grainy so it eases in.The dark rocks don't really fit in with the desert palette. They're fine on grass probably, but I wouldn't use them in the desert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chakkra Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Edited previous picture.Changed dunes, added transition from dark sand to light sand, and changed the path tiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luriok Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 The dunes look much better. But I think the transition between the darker and lighter shades of sand should be smoother and softer change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
