Title: Request mapping tutorials here.
Post by: Jalkson on April 24, 2007, 06:19:10 AM
This is for RMXP only, as this is the only RPG Maker I use.  This might change if I ever feel like downloading 2k/3, and giving them a shot.

Unsure of how to use a tileset?  Post here, and I'll write up a tutorial.  If you're requesting a custom tileset, please upload the tileset, or place a link to where I can download it. 


Requirements

Use the search feature, make sure there isn't already a tutorial for this.

Give me a general size, if you say "Can you write a cave tutorial?", and I give you something that is much smaller than you want, It's not gonna help anyone.  Even something like a small/medium/large will make it much clearer as to what you want.

If the size doesn't matter state that.

Tutorials I've completed so far:

Sorry it's taking me so long, I've been busy lately.  I'm doing the tutorial right now.  I'll post it up when I'm done.


Here it is, I hope it's something like what you were picturing.

Stuff PMing, I need to post more  ;8

Anyway, I'm using a custom sprite of a Chinese/Japanese looking place, think you can work your way through it? I'll send it over and also, it didn't some with autotiles so I'd like you to find an appropriate RTP one for it  ;8

You up for it?

can you make a farm town interior tileset? ive tried to use it but i just cant get it right >:(
Title: Re: Request mapping tutorials here.
Post by: Jalkson on May 03, 2007, 05:36:08 AM
Sure. It's very similar to the fort tileset, as in the way you make the walls.  Give me a little while, I'll get something up.

Edit: Here you go.

How about a beach tut? I made a really huge beach surrounded on 2 sides by cliffs and I'm having a hard time filling it in...I want to eliminate as much open space as possible without sacrificing a natural look...the dimensions are 150 X 60...

I'm starting on the port town exterior now,  I might not finish it today.

Please could I have a large Town tutorial, using the RTP Town tileset, could I have it about 125x80

Sorry guys, I've been pretty busy lately.

Did you mean the post town?  As in the town where the houses, have the red roofs, and the wood on the front? 

Can you make a tutorial for the Port exterior tileset?
Thanks,

Irockman1 is going to help out, seeing as how I'm getting a few requests at once, and I've been getting busier.  He's making the port town for you, Magic2345.

The point of this thread is to teach people to use the tilesets, you seem to know that much.  I don't see a point in making a tutorial to show you how to fill out a map, if someone disagrees, let me know.

I agree. All you really need to do is, as Nouman says, make autotiles your friend. Use as much of it to get the borders. When that's done and over, take some random stuff and place it all around the map. Then take something else and place it all around the map. :) Filling up doesn't take too much effort but you need to know how to do it effectively. Make sure no place looks emptier compared to other places. Also, a beach usually doesn't have many things except like umbrellas and rugs and whatnot.

hey i am just starting to use RMXP and for the life of me i can't figure out how to get more than one tileset for any single map i have been told its possible to get up to 99 at a time

idk this might not be the best place for this question but im sure u can help me
Title: Re: Request mapping tutorials here.
Post by: :) on May 12, 2007, 06:58:25 PM
please post individual questions in a new topic.

also it is impossible to use multiple tilesets by default. You can find a tileset fuse (more then 1 tileset attached together.

Can someone please give me a tutorial on making a forest...mine always turns out...for lack of a better word BLECH! (horrible). A tutorial, no matter how small, would help, I use the dark woods spriteset.
Title: Re: Request mapping tutorials here.
Post by: Jalkson on May 14, 2007, 11:01:30 PM
Here's a link to a forest tutorial I made for someone else.  It should give you a pretty good idea on making a forest.

Title: Re: Request mapping tutorials here.
Post by: venn177 on May 14, 2007, 11:44:38 PM
I can't use that one because I want a dark forest...like haunted almost....so yeah....big difference.
Title: Re: Request mapping tutorials here.
Post by: Kokowam on May 14, 2007, 11:50:56 PM
That is a haunted forest... The fog. That's where the "haunted" comes in.
Title: Re: Request mapping tutorials here.
Post by: Jalkson on May 15, 2007, 12:06:53 AM
If you'd like you can add a bit of a dark tint to it also, to make it look like it's night.
