absinthelord 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2010 A while back I created a template called Chai, but I didn't have time to work on it too much. With it being so cold here in NY, I decided to take some time and improve the template and produce some tilesets and autotiles: Working on expanding these.

Chief 30 Report post Posted February 9, 2010 Theres a problem with the tree shadows. having them black, and then setting black as the semi transparent color is an issue,a s you have black in other areas of your tiles. I suggest using the same color the original RTP uses for their tree shadows and such. otherwise, great stuff here. I really enjoy your grass and ground tiles.

Yeah, I really hadn't decided on the shadow color so I left it for now. Actually, it isn't really black but just a touch off of black (R=8 G=8 B=8) so I wouldn't have any black details semi transparent. Now that you mention it I would like to see what the RTP shadow color looks like on here. Thanks for the feedback! EDIT: The RTP shadow color didn't quite look right, so I tried the shadow color from a Breeze tileset and it looks a bit better. Here's a screenshot: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chief 30 Report post Posted February 17, 2010 Its a bit too dark in my opinion. If I were you, just take the shadow color from the original RMXP rtp, it tends to fit perfectly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chief 30 Report post Posted February 17, 2010 No, theyre too dark/blue to look anything natural, comparing to the rest of the tiles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrimsonInferno 35 Report post Posted February 18, 2010 I honestly don't see anything wrong with them :( Except maybe the chopped tree's shadow. It has a shadow as if it still had it's stalk and leaves C: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chief 30 Report post Posted February 18, 2010 Alright you guys, take it coming from a pixel artist himself, and one who does art a ton, they really are too dark and too blue. Its not an opinion, its a statement of their contrast to the outlaying tiles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrimsonInferno 35 Report post Posted February 18, 2010 I honestly see no blue in the tree shadows though >.> I'm probably color blind... :> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a fellow pixel artist, help me out. May be a wee edit to illustrate? Thanks for all of the feedback! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
