For anyone who's interested, Degica has released some modern day tiles (http://tryace.rpgmakerweb.com/modern-day-resource-pack/) that were created mostly by Lunarea with some help from Celianna. The package costs $6.99 and the graphics are high-quality if a little sparse. It comes with one full tilesheet for inner areas, one mostly full tilesheet for outer areas, as well as another small tilesheet. It also comes with Tiles A-E, both inner and outer, but most of those have only two or three resources in them. As well, there are some additional objects in four character sheets.

Additionally, a Modern Day Shop Addon (http://resources.rpgmakerweb.com/modern-shop-add-on/) has been released which comes with even more graphics. It is $5.99.

The end-user licence agreement for the resource pack is included in a spoiler below. Basically you can use it in any project you make with an enterbrain product you have purchased, whether you release the project commercially or non-commercially. You can also edit the graphics for personal use in your project, but you cannot distribute any of the resources even if you have modified them. When you release a project that uses these tiles, you also have to include documentation that credits Celianna and Lunarea with the following line: [Copyright](C) 2012 ENTERBRAIN, INC; artists Lunarea and Celianna.

While I initially felt that the number of resources provided were not really enough to make more than a few scenes in the modern-day setting, the bonus tiles and the Modern-Day Shop Addon give enough tile diversity that I think a nice game could be made out of them without repetition. Quality modern-day resources are scarce, and I think these resource packs are essential for anyone who wishes to make a game set in modern times in RTP-style.

Are we allowed to leak these resources to the community (Abiding by forum rules) as I did with the Samurai pack?

Probably a really bad idea since Lunarea is one of the creators and is on RMRK.  ;)

So, I'm totally late in noticing this, but I definitely appreciate the review! I will keep it in mind for future releases and so on.  :D
Just want to clear up that the majority of the tiles were done by me. Celianna contributed the road tiles and a stop sign (which is awesome).

And, yes, I would definitely appreciate if the tiles weren't redistributed freely. I know I can't stop anyone from pirating if they felt like it, but every bit of support from the RM community helps! I will work on making opportunities to win the tiles via contests and other events as time goes by. I'm also working on more tiles as we speak.  :)

I'm late responding to this, but yeah, please don't distribute the resources. Lunarea is a very talented artist and I want more of these packs to come out, so, independent of any moral arguments, supporting her is totally in my self-interest :P

@Lunarea - Thank you for making these resources. There has been a dearth of modern-style resources from XP onward, and it is great that you created such high-quality ones.

Some extra tiles have been added to the Modern-Day set, and some new Modern Day Shop tiles (http://resources.rpgmakerweb.com/modern-shop-add-on/) are now selling for $5.99.

You know, try as I might I cannot get any map I make to look like those sample maps... it just won't work.

Is there any where I can download those sample maps at?

So I can open them in the maker vx/vx-ace?

What is 'parallaxed'?

I posted a link to it? Oops wrong link. http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/1589-parallax-mapping/ (http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/1589-parallax-mapping/)

I'd just like to note that it's only parallaxed because I had to fit all the different set pieces into one picture. You can also get the same effect by repositioning things on the tile sheet(s).  ;)

I am having -a lot- of problems with the shop add-on.

No matter what I set the permissions to in vx ace 'tilesets', I cannot get my character to move.

She is stuck on one tile on the floor and cannot be moved from there.

Can you take a look at it and tell me what I'm doing wrong now?

http://home.comcast.net/~nekohibiki/ProjectT.rar

Maps 064, 002, and 003.

I cannot get my character to move on them.

Does the top left tile in b-e have a star?

That seems to have fixed it now.

I didn't know it had to be like that.

Thanks for all your help!^ _ ^
