Shadow-problem?!

[Toasty]

Hi all

I recently change from RMVX to RMXP.
My question is this;
I've just merged 2 RTP tilesets using this guide http://www.rmxp.tigerseye.uk.com/tutorial_resource9.shtml and Paint Shop Pro 9.

And it worked great, the only problem I have now is, that the shadow on the trees are different!! This is what it looks like now

The 2 trees and the tent on the top is from the original tileset (001-Grassland01) and the 2 trees on the bottom are from the tileset I wanted to merge (002-Wood01).

How do I make the tree shadows the same color?! Needless to say, the bottom trees' shadows doesn't look good on the map...

When you import the graphic through the Materials editor, right-click the shadow color and left-click the background color.

I'm guessing the tilesets you merged had different colors for their shadows. If that's the case just grab the colour of one and change the others so that they are all the same colour

I've tried that, but the shadows are still different in color.

How to do that exactly? I tried using the "Color Replacer Tool" in PSP, so that all the shadows had the same color - but then I found out, that some bridge tiles got messed up, because I replaced their colors with an other... The attachments should show what that looked like; image 1 is before I made all the shadows the same color and 2 is after.

So, what do you suggest I should do?

Color picker and flood fill on MS paint.

So you're saying, open up the edited/merged tileset in Paint and fill in the wholes on the bridges tiles with their original color?

[Mjustin]

No, fill the shadows in so they're all the same color.

Okay, hm.. And how do you propose I do that? I know you wrote

Color picker and flood fill on MS paint.

But does that mean I have to outline every single shadow before I can fill it?

[EDIT:] Okay, now I've used the filler on every single shadow on the tileset - it worked, so thanks for that  But isn't there an easier way to do this??

Generally, you won't need to, and when you do the color-switcher tool will probably work (assuming I know what you are talking about).

The fact that it messed up the bridge is a problem, but that's just a problem with the colours in that tileset - probably the reason they were different colors to begin with was because of the bridge.

I'm just gonna do the color fill thing, because it works great for me, and I'm quite fast at it, so that is no problem

I guess you can close this topic, if you do that in this place

Thank you both very much for your helpful inputs
