The main charecter Tommy is fresh out of the War of the Gods trying to live a peaceful life but, of course something has to happen to him to make his life worse. You see there are five all powerful gods fire,water,earth,ice,and darkness. The Dark God keeps telling Tommy that he is the dark god reincarnated in the past, and plants false memeries to make it seem so. Some are real memories some are implants but Tommy wont know. So Tommy refuses to belive him. So in order to stop the Dark God he has to find the other four gods to make a weapon to stop the dark god. But later on he finds out there may be something that makes the Dark God nothing. All he has is one clue to what it is.... "The treason of the light is at hand."

Tell me what you think!
If any one has a good ATB script please PM me or email me.
Generic. I feel no need to play it. Bad mapping. = review.
Anyway, just keep working on it. Take some tutorials. Play some other RPG XP games. Learn more about game design. THEN come back and make something.
in ur 2nd picture the chimney sticks out past the walls of the house, that large door is in the middle of 2 buildings.... you didn't link that together into one (there is an obvious line right between them), the tracks leading into the mine don't even touch the entrance, and everything else needs a little more work (cept for the title screen)
This is alittle harsh,but your mapping isn't very good.
My newer maps are much better trust me LOL. I'll put some screens on later.
Well, the story sounds like Guy doesn't like the dark god trying to talk to someone so he wants to kill him.
Tommy is evil :p.
DO NOT USE ARSHES.
also, USE IMAGESHACK (www.imageshack.us) for hosting. i dont really feel like putting the effort in to download your screenshots.
try the open button
I sound cliche...
and what is a FU<K1^g arshes!!! >:(
Arshes = Aluxes. Don't use him in your game, it means you're not capable of inventing an own character.
Hey man, dont be offended but we're pointing out ur mistakes.
Improve your mapping, especially fencing.
Like in the first map, you made a small entrance, black door thing, but it has no support.
So you get what i mean right?
Second of all, dont use everything from the rtp, get some own battlers /sprites, ask for em if you cant make em.
And last, WORK man, dont be lazy. Like, change the classes, dont make him a lancer,change it make something else.
Make new spells, a new class (eg,Tommy=Lancer (say if he is) make tommy= warrior, demon, normal guy) but put effort.
Im sure your game'd be good.
AND 1 more thing, the title screen is good, (change chipset maybe to something yellow transperentish) but the text on the title screen (legend of the 5 Gods) should be a LITTLE up so no clashing takes place.
This much is easy to do hope you can do it
LOL I am not offended it's my first game it's cool. Thanks for the tips.
You're welcome. :) Work hard on it and put much effort into it and it will be a great game. :)
Yeah the people who have played it like it.
I like how all your characters aren't a bunch of 17 year olds.
Your houses need work. on the mining town house, combine the roof's and make it one house, and add stuff around the house. Also don't forget to ged rid of the shadow line on the house. here ill quickly make a house that looks interesting:

see the difference.
EDIT:
Here I spent around 5 min's on this..ya i know its not great guys, but this should show you a difference between your map and mine, use this as a guide, or copy it compleatly i dont mind:

Allright thanks
no, the buildings in the mining town shouldn't be connected. they aren't attached at the walls so why would the roofs be?

looks better?
but thats like having the roof on your house connect to the house next to yours but you have several feet between the walls...
ahhhh i know see what you mean, I was looking at my game version of the map and was wtf because i actaully corrected the mistake by putting the wall behing the roof in a diff layer, but i noticed the image i uploaded did not have that :P
Can some one find me a good Ice temple like tileset, a couple of new map and, feild tilesets, and if you guys don't mind can someone make me a bunch of new tilesets. First game and all kind of don't know how yet.
good place to start is google. Search: "RMXP Resources" and vist each site listed, and check what you want.
Are these better?

blank post?
Huh there are pics of the mining town redone.
They're better. Not necessarily great, but better.
The title screen needs more work, all you did was got a title screen background and slapped some font on top it it, it would of been better to at least put some effort into the font, like for example if its about medieval times then find a Gothic font and then put some effects onto it. If you can't put any effects onto it at least find a matching font. Sorry if it sounded harsh but you could of done better.
Apart from that, your mapping isn't bad, but not great. As for the Arshes sprite, I think downloading some different sprites would be a wise choice, there are ALOT of Arshes haters... not naming anyone from the millions*cough* blizzard *cough*. Good luck, the story however needs a bit of work.

I think he is using arshes just for the screenshots, A good tip is to go into database, and set the character grafic to none, and then take screenies with it.
Yeah its kind of like the blue girl in LOD 2 apearing everywhere
Also the newer maps I'm telling you are way better. I put up some screens later though.

LOL. Yes, in the screenshot in my game, I forgot to set the person's image to none.
mapping issue:
I have mentioned to you this before I think, On the house front, get rid of the dark line, that is used to shadow the wall, the sun would not hit your house the way you show it.
Allright kool.
New updated info First page. OKAY!
Quote from: tdogg427 on November 12, 2006, 09:31:59 PM
New updated info First page. OKAY!
nice, update the pictures you attached
Sure
Tell me what u think of the new update all.
there turning out better and better, keep working on them. One thing about the houses is don't copy the house and put it stright into the map, change the textures on the front where the door goes, make some houses big, some small.
Kool thanks.
great source:

allright
Offical new CBS WOOT!
if you can try and put of a screenshot of the CBS in use.
Yeah. It's a step in the right direction, but a visual example would be nice.
Quote from: Zypher on November 14, 2006, 04:13:46 AM
Yeah. It's a step in the right direction, but a visual example would be nice.
its an RTAB CBS. Battle camera moves and stuff.
Here are some more screens.
screenshots looking better, just one thing:
In the inn try and add some stuff in some rooms, maybe a book, carpet and in some even a tresure chest.
Alright thanks
I am going to redo Sekaro snow plains when I am done it will ne my best map ever.
(u can see half of it on the pic on page1)
when you are done, don't forget to update the screenshot, do that alot when you make something better.

Yeah I guess but it helped. Also site is almost done.
Please put any suggjestions on. And could I have some spriters, and scripters if u guys don't mind?
I can't script for you personally (I'd need to charge you for that... ::)), but of course you can use any scripts I made. That's why I made them: To be used by people in their games. :D

Well new updated screens!
1st map looks good, keep hacking at it and it will be perfect. Second looks weird. The water fall comes from no height at all and drops while on the ground? Hld on give me a min and I will show you an ok water fall
Ok here you go:

It should loook like this.
So, I played around with your idea of the snow mountain comming off into a view of the other mountains, and I thought it would look cool with a second side on the left,.....also if you look close at your design it looks like a penius. LOL i laughed when i noticed that:
so heres mine

haha, I saw the penius too in his map! wow, you have been re-making all his maps just to show him his flaws? thats sweet, when I start a game I hope you help me!
Sure, I will help you. I enjoy mapping and since my game is on pause due to scripting not being made (look under script request!!) so I am helping others with maps.
lol okay
Wow, nice winter map scene. I like that one for some reason. (the one that appears to be a mountain ledge.)

Hey guys new maps!(http://C:%5CDocuments%20and%20Settings%5CTommy%20Hartsfield%5CMy%20Documents%5CMy%20Pictures%5CMelrose.JPG)

If you cant see the shots above
your mapping skills have improved 100x better ;D
Thanks although alot of these maps I shouldnt put on here due to the fact they probbaly wont be in the demo. (Demo is done i just havent put it up yet.)
Hey guys im tking a short break from the game for a while so there won't be any new news for a little bit.(But knowing me I probbaly start doing some work later lol ;))
Okay I changed my mind im working on it right now lol.
(https://rmrk.net/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=7705.0;attach=1083;image)
The roads are pretty bad imo. Unlike most natural tiles, stone paths are supposed to be structured and orderly because they are man-made.
(https://rmrk.net/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=7705.0;attach=1085;image)
The map is good but the message isn't. I hope your grammar isn't like this throughout the game.
What do you mean? I try to make the people in the game talk differently to make them seem you know, different. So that guy does talk funny compared to other people.
Alright then, that's understandable. Just put the comma in then.
Lol sure
Hey guys I decided to put a intro and tutorial in the game instead of just throwing you into the game lol.
will it be like a cutsceen?
Good idea. That's one step away from Suckville.
lol yea... (new maps more storyline info soon)
update the first post, and add the great screenshots you posted a few posts before mine..
New update is up!
Quote from: Nouman6 on December 11, 2006, 01:34:52 AM
update the first post, and add the great screenshots you posted a few posts before mine..
again, you still have not done it.
Anyways The maps on the front page I am assuming have not been update, your mapping has gotten way better but the maps on the front are empty and dry.
Other than the mpas needing work game looks good,
Hey RMRKers! Well the game is almost done give me wa while and I will put on the site and on the GTS site wich I will put up sonner or later. We decided to skip the demo.(Here os a new screen.) 8)
Closer and closer to being done! Just about finished give me a bit to make sure.
Okay I take that back I just hed 8000000 ideas come through my head to make the story line stronger and longer. (That may put me at a sequel. It depends how the game does.)
Firstly, edit the posts, dont double post.
Secondly, dont start thinking about a sequel. Just get this one done first.
I hope to see this game completed and well done.
No you see I am not exactly thinking about a sequel... I was just saying it is possible depending on how the game does and if I decide not to put all the things i am thinking in the first one.
A new SCREEN!!!! (https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi145.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fr228%2FTdogg427%2FCastleRedone.png&hash=ffd2fc7911eba5ee02f9e64598bbbd1707ea2c3d)
Just a tip...Don't leave so many open spaces. Your snow area pic looks boring and unrealistic.
Alright guys I aam going to end the game where i am because my mom is getting angry for all the stuff i have on here cpu. So I am going to end but don't think i am going to just drop the project i will make a part two and release the finished part one once i finish editing it. So hopefully you guys will like it when i put it out.
So i will get to work and release details as soon as i finish this one. So when you get me your feed back on the first one. I will finish up the second one and maybe do a sort of "final mix" of the orgianal. But this way if i start a new i get to get a clean slate and not worry about the flaws that some people may think will be in the original. So that way it will be even more esay for me to make :p.
Well im put back at a problem im having some trouble with my my scripts... but, the almighty Blizzard is on the case lol just gotta wait for him to fix them up and i wll be done!
(https://rmrk.net/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=7705.0;attach=857;image)
The hills in the background could do with having snow on them.

Glad to see your using one of my Sprites I made... (The Black knight on horse back) - The anim is a bit choppy on him, he was the first I ever made !!!
As long as you game is fun to play with a good story the mapping I think takes 2nd place.
Hey havent seen this yet
Mapping could get improvements ill try it later
Lol I know about the mapping. I also need to find a snow mt para, and LOS i am actualy making use of two of your sprites but the other guy on the horse is kinda being obliterated. :-}
Okay guys i am finnaly back with some bad news :(. Well i had to system restore my cpu cause some fool gave me a virus so... i lost a lot of LOTFG in the restore but i found a back up so it iwll be a while before it gets released now:( So now that there is no virus i am back on track and caught up to where i was new screens will be out soon ;8
There will also be many Redone maps because as i look at them i realize i can do a lot better now
Your map sucks!! I hate it! So empty.... I recc. you to take mapping tutorials.
Strike 1, this topic is from last year; don't necropost.
sorry.... just criticizing..
