Hinola 3 Report post Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) Hello ! In first, I will give you a part of code that I have modified for have a panorama which don't move. I guess that It's the same script for you (Why not?) I have modified the lines 121 and 122 @panorama.ox = $game_map.display_x / 8 @panorama.oy = $game_map.display_y / 8 if you put an other number that 8, the panorama will move faster (<8) or slawer (>8) than the real map. So... now, the real tutorial. You will need photophiltre (studio or not) You can adapt this tutorial for other graphic logiciels, but me I have just this one :/ My first idea, for town (it's not the only =p ) un place with stair for start this tutorial, you sould create four pictures: (in the order in the screenshot) - the ground who will be downstairs - the floor who will be upstair - the horizontale part of the stair - the verticale part of the stair My verticale part is the same that my horizontale part, but I have added a verticale movement (filtre => optical effect => euh... ^^' flou movement...) mitigate to 50 % (edition => mitigate ... ) and gamma - (2time) Now, we need a form for the stair. Create it in black in a white picture. We will not create a simple line... Don't let pointed corner. The result is bad after. duplicate the picture later, we need to create the steps put your first color in white copy and paste like a mask (edition => special past move your "mask" up If you are with photofiltre studio, merge the layers For do a new step, put your first color in black and paste like a mask adjust height. The white between the blacks stuffs will be the elevation of your step. merge the layers Now, the verticals parts Here, there is three duplicate the picture Copy and paste like a mask Move up the new stuff the new and the old stuff should be Bunk (In the screen, the red distance should be deleted) you will use this technic too for have more steps If you want one step, repeat the same action but just on the bottom If you want deux steps repeat this on the bottom and on the top If you want more step, do as for two step and add one on the top ... The result for two steps: merge the layers change for negative. (setting => negative) You can see in black the verticals parts between the step With the pen, the first color in white, delete the black parts in the bottom et the top assemble your pictures like this (edition = > spécial paste => assembled paste) the first picture (the form) on the left of the ground who will be upstair the second picture (the steps) on the the left of the horizontale part of the stair the third one (verticales parts) on the the left of the verticale part of the stair You should have this: assemble all the picture (edition => special paste=> picture and mask associated) past the upstair ground (in the downstair ground) After, paste the step And in last one, the verticales part. The final result: In game, in my big city of Esparide : I now, the stair in the right are bigger... It's after translate this tutorial that I guess that my project will not be in english tomorrow ^^' Sorry if I have do big faults And if the names of differents photofiltre's command are not the same ^^' Edited October 29, 2010 by Hinola 1 Kiriashi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Decadenttia 2 Report post Posted November 8, 2010 Good job with amazing results. Thanks very much for this tutorial. It would be an interesting idea to create a script for fixing /unfixing panorama movement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hinola 3 Report post Posted November 11, 2010 Hello =D thanks all for the reply. It would be an interesting idea to create a script for fixing /unfixing panorama movement. yes I thought do this with switches, but my level in script is not very hight :/ Now, I will give you... not an idea, not really a tutorial, but ressources for photofiltre studio. Install the pictures in : "... Photofiltre studio / Nozzles " For use them, you sould click on the strawberry in the bottom right corner of tools. (on the right) I recommend you to put the others in a new file. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OKUDTQDV for exemples, I give you two map and their panoramas. It's finish =D I hope I was helpful bye Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
