The Screenshot Thread

[BlitZ++ 2]

I know, i changed it to the same window to the left of it, it's just too much, i was trying to do it on a limited tileset, still. Got what i can out of it :P :alright:

[AbnormalHairGrowth 0]

Blugh. I really should be getting back to work, but it's too hot and spriting fat guys is hard. So I thought I'd toss up a couple of maps. This is a cave that I did for a tutorial:

 

 

And this is the outside area for the same cave.

 

 

It wasn't a very big game. Those two maps comprise the entire world.

[FranklinX 37]

Nice mapping. Try to add a little more details inside of the cave.

I may as well post some screenies, it's been a long time since I posted any. I'll show you some screenies from the newest town in Hope Afloat; Jenkins :alright: . Jenkins will be released very soon, maybe this afternoon, just gotta fix a few glitches. If you'd like to see the topic, the bar is in my sig. The download link may not be working, however, so I will fix it with the latest release. Well, without further ado;

 

Jenkins

 

The Story Behind Jenkins:

Jenkins was a city that was bombed by a experimental zombie-killing agent, which utilised the zombie virus to kill it's own creations... But, this time, it didn't work. The vapor cloud containing the virus that was meant to kill the infected did the opposite; infected every last person in the city. Your car doesn't have much fuel left, so Jenkins is like a fuel-run-gone wrong; not only do you have to get 3 canisters of fuel, but its nearly pitch black.

 

Screenshot 1:

 

 

It's pretty dark, yeah? Not only is it dark, it's storming. This storm, though, is the only thing that might actually save you. You see, storm = lightning, and lightning - ning = light.

 

Screenshot 2:

 

 

See? Now, you can see where the hell you are and where the infected are, too. If you've played up until now, you will already know the existence of infected QL3 Soldiers and Infected hazmat suit soldiers, but the one in the black hood, covered in blood? That is one out of two new infected you will see in Jenkins. This one is called the Prowler. Slow, but deadly. Don't let em hit you, or your health will suffer dearly.

 

After the streets, and when you get all the fuel, you can start your trip back to your car. To get to your car, you need to pass through a sewer system and a swamp. I won't show you any screenshots of the sewer, because I don't want to spoil the 2nd new infected, but I will show you a screenshot of the swamp.

 

Screenshot 3:

 

 

Credit goes to Rusttey for making this for me. Can you believe this is, what, his 13th, maybe 14th map? He's a natural born mapper :alright: . Anyway, this is the swamp. You can see your car from here, too. You got the fuel so just pass through the infected, grab some ammo along the way and get out of this hell hole.

 

I had a lot of fun making Jenkins, as I got to implement some things I've never done before, such as the lightning system for the streets and the new feature in the sewers. Everything for Jenkins is complete, I'm just going to get Polraudio to test it for me this afternoon and I'll be able to release it. Enjoy.

Nice maps Tom. Only 1 problem.

The car is under the fence some how.

[Noob Saibot 38]

Awesome map. The only problem I see is the window with the blue curtains. It looks odd and it stands out.

 

And it's to low to the floor.

[AbnormalHairGrowth 0]

Tom - Your maps are pretty good; I've just got a couple of minor quibbles. The first is that the city map uses the same sidewalk-smear tile over and over and it makes it look artificial. The second is that your pickup sprite is kinda dodgy. The third ('cause three is a couple, yeah) is that the blood looks too bright, but that's really not map-related.

 

Franklin - You're right; it is a little barren. I probably won't do anything with that map, since I just did it in a few minutes for a tutorial, but it's something to keep in mind for any future caves I end up making.

[Noob Saibot 38]

 

The TRUCK looks out of place. No doubt do to the fact of the style of the truck.

[AbnormalHairGrowth 0]

It's because the art is a bit lower quality than the stuff around it and it's not as bright as the rest of the scenery. Well, and it looks much too small to fit the person who proposes to get into it.

 

Plus there's the whole question of "how the heck did he park a pickup truck in the middle of that mess?"

[LaDestitute 3]

Nice maps Tom...but I have to complain that I see a bit too much of empty space...and the sprites look weird against the mapping style.

 

Open Beta Prototype Map for my project The Chao Tales.

[Kiriashi 117]

I guess I'll give this topic a bit of a bump.

 

Miles, your map kinda' has the same problem. There's a lot of empty space. And the cut-out of the cliff looks really odd. The map looks like it's only half done.

 

Here's a map I made with my new favorite tile-set. I challenged myself to not use tiles like trees and cliffs that are used as space fillers, but still fill the space:

Been a while since I posted here.

 

Some new screenies.

 

*Screens 1 and 2 are old, about a day or two. Had made some cave design changes since then.

*Changed Chao Karate Stadium to Chao Karate Area.

[Kiriashi 117]

Your maps look really nice Miles. They just need some more detail to them.

 

Anyone have any maps to post from their games? This topic needs a good ol' bump.

 

Here's one of the greatest RMXP maps I've ever seen:

Warning, large image.

Kiriashi your map is awesome. You have inspired me to improve my mapping skills!

That THING isn't a map, but WOW! :D Where did you find it?

[Kiriashi 117]

'Tis amazing isn't it. Don't remember where it came from, Tomo2000 showed it to me.

 

Also, please don't make remarks that might offend religious users.

[CircleDrain 0]

[Kiriashi 117]

Holy crap! That's from the map I just posted! Do you know where to get a hold of that game?!! If so, please tell me!

Here is my forest road (piece number 4)

 

[Siverix 4]

why is there a well in the middle of the forest? and does rocks on the square iland look weard

[MusicalSwordsman 25]

Who knows, maybe the place is near a town? If not near any sort of settlement then get rid of the bucket and change the color of the well to a sort of brown-ish color or something similar to make it look aged.

 

But yeah this is a fantasy game so almost anything goes ^^

 

----

The french game looks nice but i say get rid of the VX tiles, they clash horribly against XP pieces, waterfall looks out of place as well.

And some plants look too sharp against others, some slight editing should fix that.

Yes, this map is right before the Castle Town Entrance. I will put a guard near the well to show people are around. I will also get rid of the rocks on the little isle.

 

Here is another one, this is my little brother did.

 

[Siverix 4]

Here's my next screenshot.

 

[Broken Messiah 20]

I wanna post in here but how do you make a screenshot? 

[Noob Saibot 38]

I wanna post in here but how do you make a screenshot?

 

Your keyboard should have a button on it labeled: PRT SC (print screen). You then open a photo editor and paste it. They also have software that can do this, i.e. a screen recorder (some do video, some do images, and some can do both).

I wanna post in here but how do you make a screenshot? 

Following on from Kage Kazumi's post: then you upload it to a host such as imageshack.us and wrap the images url between tags to make the images show up on the forums.

[Broken Messiah 20]

I know that much but is there a way to get a image of the entire map(which is larger than the game can display at once)
