EldinnerPlate Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 So just wanted to get some opinions on my chapter 1 map that I'm inserting into my Hack. Any critique is appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Kitty Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 it's really spammy, sort of boring, and quite large for a chapter 1 map that's pretty much it there are small tile errors as well on the left straight wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EldinnerPlate Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Oh thanks, I fixed them. I tried to avoid spamming by using the grass but it is a desert town so I didn't want to put too much green. And yah there are 5 units by chapter 1 so I thought maybe I could pull off a larger map. Do you think it would look better if it used the daytime palette? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Kitty Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 The sunset palette is harder to look at, yeah but there isn't really anything wrong with the palette other than the grass is off around the shops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EldinnerPlate Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Made a few very small adjustments. I really like the sunset because you don't see it much in FE games but I guess there is a reason for that :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doga Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I think what also matters is what kind of enemy arrangement you'll be going for, and what kind of units you'll have available for the map. I'm assuming that the house in the upper right corner is some sort of boss location, but I'm not entirely sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EldinnerPlate Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Actually I was planning on having my units start at the inn and fight their way out of the city, with the boss blocking the exit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of Gabriel Knight Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 There are no shadows underneath the walls when there should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EldinnerPlate Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 Thank you all for your help so far. I couldn't find a shadow tile to put under walls so I used the small grass tile, do you think it works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of Gabriel Knight Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 it certainly looks a bit better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Kitty Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 - there shouldn't be a shadowed tile here(this shows up twice) - This should be cobblestone, not grass, and again, not shadowed - don't get why you decide to add shadow to some walls but leave out others, you should be consistent there's more small things like that, but I don't really think you want me nitpicking everything anyway.

Haha it's fine I like the nitpicking. After looking closely you're right about the shadows and cobblestone since the village already has both. I would add shadow to all the walls, but the certain grass tiles I use don't have a shadow version. I could move the grass over and put a cobblestone shadow tile but I kinda think it looks better with the grass because it adds a little variety.
