The Screenshot Thread

[R.J.]

I love your underwater parts, will the player also actually be able to go there, or is it just for decoration? Very good.

Is that a Roller Coaster Tycoon fountain I see in there??

I really like the overall feel of the maps Thios but unless it is continually sunset I don't see much of a reason for the screens to be so orange. It has a very nice layout. Watch out for the details though. fox5 already mentioned the grass and the bridge, and there are a few other places, such as the top of the waterfall, that could use a bit of a touch-up.

I don't see any reason for someone to build their house so close to a cliif, either. I'm talking about the one in the top-left. (that's really nitpicky I know)

 

[thios]

First of all, everybody thanks for the comments. Many feedback.

I really like that last screenshot with the seamonster :D
the other maps are a bit empty i think.

Well, I like it this way, not to full to manoeuvre. What's coming is, some little edits and events.

No, these fountains are not from Roller Coaster Tycoon.
This screens were made in the evening, when the sun is going down. I'm using a day and night script.
I will place that house one tile backwards, thanks. What do you mean with touch-up?

Yeah, you can swim like a fish, and fly like a bird.. It's a part of the storyline.

I love the colour of that tileset. That's a great edit on the RTP. However, I feel the dark green grass is way too green, and sticks out too much. Also, I have to agree with stefan, the maps are quite empty. (Also, that bridge is giving me a headache, lol. How can it possibly be that shape without anything propping it from below?)

Well, I'll tried to make almost the same colour of my forest autotiles, but maybe I can make it a little less green. I will fix that bridge, but I must say, it is a strong bridge, it can hold 200 characters..

By touch-up, mostly little details like how at the top of the waterfall the edges of the cliffs don't touch the actual water itself which looks a little off, and some areas stick out rather badly (the tent comes to mind here) Not huge things but just barely noticeable enough if you're looking for them. With this really tiny stuff it's mostly your call.

Ooh, now I know what you mean. But I don't know of that is possible, I will try.. Thanks!

Also, isn't that stone in the lower left that black stone from Naruto?

Might well, I don't know. Inside that statue is one of my end bosses.

Better? I changed the cliffs,, Or 1 tile higher?

 

[stefanzzz]

Thios i think it looks very good only i dont really like the colors, but that could just be me.
and wtf, is that mario?

An entrance of a much bigger cave which will lead to a city

 

[thios]

I will changed that colours, I don't like it either, afterwards.

Mario, little joke, not a part of my storyline..

Edit: About you're map, you're corners are wrong, to square. I will make tomorrow a screen shot what I mean, and how you can fix that.

 

[stefanzzz]

@thios, ok thanks i will await your post :angel:

 

[thios]

See the red circles, I'm using another map for example:

First you put number 1 on layer 1, than number 2 on layer 2. So you don't have square corners.

 

[stefanzzz]

Thanks!
Fixed :D

and here another screenshot from the beginning of my game

 

[LiquidMetal91]

Is it just me or dos it seem like the light isnt going far enough :huh: ??

Looks great though

 

[R.J.]

Actually, it seems to wide and pale in my opinion, for a campfire.

 

[dadevvtsvre]

I'm not going to comment on the shadows or anything because obviously it's nearly impossible to get every light source correct in a program like RPG Maker. I do like the feel of the map but it probably wouldn't hurt to add a small tint of blue and lower the saturation a tad, this'll make the mood feel more dramatic and night feel even more like night. Also looks like you have some issues with your grass on the right side.

If you could make the campfire light a tad more orange that would make the scene look even better, however I'm not sure how easy it is to make one area of a screen blue and the other orange.

 

[stefanzzz]

Thanks all :D
-fixed the grass
-Made the scene a little bit more blue and darker
-Made an orange glow around the fire

think it looks better now

Old one:

Spoiler

New:

 

[R.J.]

That looks way better.

 

[mawk]

except you need less blue. I don't know why everyone thinks DARK = EVERYONE BLUE but you'll tend to get more mileage out of proper use of the Gray slider.

New screen: Water with panorama.

 

[Luthur]

lol, love the warthogs. Pretty good map again, if a bit bare. Try adding some more plant life to the ground. Surely with all that water, plants would be thriving. Also, one last question, where does all the water come from?
