Well yes, it did lag. Not too bad. Just a little bit and it got very annoying.
I thought the only thing that cause lag though was events. Not the size of the map.
But I learned something! WOOO!!!!!
Anyways, I split the map into 3 separate parts and now the little bit of lag I had is completely eliminated.
I took everything you all had to say into account and it BETTER!

Laphele Sanctum I had been re-working on =< (lol, the old Temple was all cr**, divided Between5 Sectors, 4 Floors, 2 Towers with 8 Floors each & The Hazen's Chamber Underneath another 4 Rooms D:)
This is just The Entrance:

Without Dialogue:

Laphele's Sanctum, Within it Harvest the Entire Existence of the Worlds & been One of the Important Relics for Thule Society, Like Balle Masque, The Sanctuary is Heavy Protected. Due to the Corruption of the Soul-Rave, The Black Clouds that Surrounds the Temple has Even made it a Thick Clouds of Darkness, view been badly & The Source been More and more Evil and Impure. The Hazen's Power Corrupts the Dusks who protects them, to only Obeying the Obsidian Lord.

To Clear why it's a bit . . . Tooo Dark & Foggy D:

@Caro Ru Lushe

10/10 Great Effect!! Look's more like an horror game to me.

Thanks AlienSoldier =3

Well, here's the Inner Deep Chamber, where up beyond lies the So called "Gate of Destiny"

Spoiler for The Chamber of Laphele/ Lapheles Sanctum:

=< I am planning on adding like some "Roots" to the Tileset, Recolor them to like Sparkle Blue, so it would look neat. Thou I wonder if it would be in Character sprites or the tile set itself. Would look cool if I add that touch, since I want to make the place look like this:

Spoiler for Laphele's Sanctum Scene:

I want something blueish yet dark, but working on it is been a bit, stressful >.>;; =< but you uys get the Idea of what I meant with adding roots around, specially for the Water-like Floor.

Those look great DAS. Very nice. I think the second pic works pretty well myself. Stop stressing



This map is not actually a map - I am testing out the water. I am trying to combine both round and square water since I don't really like either. I'm not sure that I like this either, but I figured I'd go for comments.

(the parts of round water I am using are made by Shadow Slayer, btw)

<3 I must say, I like the Natural feeling it has.

I mean, it looks more realistic in a way =< but I too, never liked the River autotile.


Also: A last Screenshot of the Laphele temple =3

Spoiler for Below what was seen above:

lol, I feel as if those walls are a bit "empty"

<3 the lighting effects.
It really brings out the atmosphere.

Can't let this die yet.

These are from XP...





These are from VX...

The XP ones look pretty good, but God I hate VX RTP. It's sooo blocky.

That's probably the first time I've ever seen that water fog in action, hahah.
Looking good; the only thing is that I think for the last map, the empty grass spots should be covered with the tall-grass tiles instead, which looks a lot more occupied than the normal ground tiles.


This is a little old, but I was testing out the screen-capture script earlier and thought I might as well as post it. Note however, that due to the script, there are some errors with priority/placement of character events on the map. Errors such as the guy behind the hut on-top, cat-on-the-head, crate top, and bridge tile errors are due to that, since they were character events.



The horizon grass will probably seem awkward to some, but it's just a personal preference. :'>
[ Resources mostly from Mack and Ruruga. ]

Great map, but there are three errors I see: lower left ladder, middle bridge, and boxes in a house just right of the middle. You addressed that in your post, so hopefully they'll all be gone.

Aye,

Note however, that due to the script,

They actually aren't in the actual map, but the screenshot-generating script does not handle character-event priorities well.

Oh, here's that screenshot script for those who want to use it: http://www.box.net/shared/zx8ssoi88w
[By Sephirothspawn, edited by Brewmaster.]
It basically screenshots an entire map at 100% size and saves it automatically, . Albeit that little glitch, it's still very handy.

That's probably the first time I've ever seen that water fog in action, hahah.

Really, well... I'm still thinking wha effect should I use for and underwater area.

The XP ones look pretty good, but God I hate VX RTP. It's sooo blocky.

Thanx. Well that's the only thing I hate about VX, it's blocky.

Elemna Sanctuary near Belfast.
It looks normal on the outside, maybe even a bit flowery, but its congregation worships the dark goddess Maeve, Mistress of Shadows.

The CMS Im using for my game:


Nothing special. Just a burning pray chamber. I just want to show that Im active with my game

The CMS looks great. I'm not sure about the tint on the second map though. If you want it to be fire I would probably choose a darker shade of red or orange, though you might also consider a custom made fog so that the tint looks like it's coming from the fires. It's up to your discretion.

Hold on a second. We're not going just let Derrt's map go unnoticed here, 'cause it looks friggin' fantastic!

It's a bit too small to see if there's any mapping flaws, but the amount of details and lighting are positively orgasmic!

Yeah, that is a great map Dertt

Thanks guys.

Here's a shot of the sanctuary with a few worshipers.

Looks good Dertt.

I tried to add a fog to make it look like the room is full of smoke, and I changed the tint.

I think it would much benefit from using an alternate fire char-set (I remember seeing a nice big one somewhere). The small RTP fires seems a bit awkward when combined with such thick smoke.

(Oh, there seems to be a fire on the water as well.)

I made a big flame, perhaps you could use it.

Thx Dertt, but they were to big. If they were smaller, I would use them. I also found Zanyzora's flames, but I kind of liked your flames better.

Here, I resized them.

Thx Dertt

Here's the end resultate. It's either like this:


Or like this:


Which one would be the best?
