Chocolate Kitty Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 So the rules for this are fairly simple, follow the guidelines and that's about it. :P Ask for clarification if needed. Guidelines: -Make your maps original, don't copy/steal someone else's design. -Stick to the tileset given, no color swaps. -Stick to the size given, I may or may not check this. Honor system. -16 colors and hack box sized :P Tileset, FE7: 6A006B6C Requirements, as selected by (Super Luigi): - 20 to 25 tiles in length and 25 to 30 tiles in height - Other than that, anything goes round Provide your size for this round.

Feaw Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Sooo, this time we may choose our tileset and all the stuff that's in it? Awesome~ I should be able to make my map over the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiant Dragon Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 The tileset is already chosen for us, I believe. That said, I hope I have time to enter this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Kitty Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 ...WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT Feaw lol Yeah, you gotta use the tileset and be of the right size. Everything else is purely up to you :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feaw Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Oh, I must've read over it >.< oh bern yay love that tileset~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celice Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 (edited) So much unused space in these tilesets--I'm so used to squeezing out as much room as the NES can handle XD Edited February 12, 2011 by Celice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superluigi Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 ^ Damn that is one sweet map Celice. Not quite sure what my aims with this map were. I think it was going to be a maze to start off with... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anouleth Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) Here is my entry. I noticed a very minor mistake after uploading it and changed it. I hope that's ok. Edited February 14, 2011 by Anouleth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eCut Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I love what you did with the chests! Very cool and original idea there, Anouleth. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feaw Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Wow indeed. Three awesome maps so far. I really need to get started on my own map now =3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13th Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) What size are the tiles? I try to get them to be right, but it merges them into tiles with grids through them. A little help? EDIT: I downloaded everything from here, and now is trying to get it to work so I can make this map.

EDIT: I downloaded everything from here, and now is trying to get it to work so I can make this map. You should pick 16x16 pixels. You might be using the square tilesets by accident, you want to avoid those, look in the FE7 folder rather than the FE7 Square folder.

Feaw Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Oh, yeah, the square tiles are kinda useless. I should convert 'em with yeti's tool and upload them. Â But I'm making new, better, tilesets for almost all tilesets, but they won't likely be usable in hacks (but maybe they'll get accepted for this competition).

Chocolate Kitty Posted February 14, 2011 Author Share Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) The package should have a boxed version and a normal version that has no box. Use the latter, 16x16 tiles. Feaw, do tell, I'm actually in need of Custom tilesets nowadays. Edited February 14, 2011 by Hero of Time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feaw Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Yeah Im almost done with them. It's like that castle tileset I posted in FEND's shoutbox some time ago. I need to do the Fort, snow and western isles now, and then loads of recolors (especially once **read my topic in the hacking section**).

Chocolate Kitty Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 By chance are you doing an FE8 village with normal mountains instead of the ugly ones in the FE7 tileset? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Glenn Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) I have to say, I was completely disinterested in making a map for this tileset. That is, until you posted your map, Celice. Your entry reminded me of a chapter concept I had a long time ago, and when I realized that this tileset was perfect for making a map of it, I had to jump in before I forgot all of the details. Granted, the original idea was more grandiose (and involved a boat, something this tileset lacks), but one must adapt and overcome adversity. I just wish that the tileset had more variety for some tiles (light grass patterns, angled walls without grass at the bottom, etc.)... I have a feeling that this round is going to be a good, close one. (Size: 25 wide x 30 high) (In case it matters to anyone: Allies start in the area in the northwest corner. Chapter goal is "Defeat bosses" (both of whom are sitting on the thrones). The island forts produce flying reinforcements. And, plenty of siege weaponry (ballistae, long-range tomes, etc.).)

Feaw Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) @HoT: Actually, no. I redid the villages to have no mountains, but working ships and other stuff. Though the small mountains (which are used in chapter 3 of Lyn's Mode) are still in it, but I guess I can add them in another version. @Shadow: .... I don't get why the grid's still on it. It shouldnt even be possible to have it on the map if you use the gridless tileset of my tileset package. You should really look into this, becuase a map with a grid is kinda... hard to tell what tiles are where and stuff, and it doesn't look too good.
