What's up, RMers?

Day two of VX Ace trial, started a decent portion of a world map! So far liking how everything builds together but imo my material looks way better than their RTP. Nevertheless I'm taking notes of everything EB did correct and seeing how I can apply it to what I'm working on.

I'll be spending the next 28 days working with the new Maker, just so I can say I gave it an honest chance. While I still plan on working on my main project with XP, only time will tell if I like the trial enough to buy Ace too.

had my gf rapidshare my game file to my new laptop while i'm away on business. since i don't have time to do anything big, i've started adding plants and scenery to places on Villageburg's map where there were none.

work 15 minutes, tell everyone on the internet about it for 30 minutes....how i miss working on my project.

I've been too exhausted to get anything serious done lately, it kind of pisses me off! I've already taken breaks and vacations away from my project, gone off to do other things, but... all I want to do is work on it and I'm too blah to even do that yet break time has long been over! I guess I shouldn't complain, I've gotten some things done lately, but it feels like nothing compared to how much I was pulling last year.

It's nearly 2am... was distracted by sprite work... that if I didn't do now wouldn't do in the morning.

beeeeeddd...

I've been working on the first town for awhile because i kept getting told how much my maps suck. i filled in a bunch of empty space, and moved some things over to crowd everything in more.

Looks quite nice, I like it!

just to have a comparison, here is the old map:

I think a few more details would be nice. It's hard to judge with this view but to me it still looks a little empty.
Otherwise not bad =)

yeah that's the old one, the new one is up higher. i hate cluttered maps, and i'm running out of tiles to lay down where there won't be too many of the same tile in one area. i also hate when two almonds touch each other in a can of mixed nuts.

I was talking about the new one, actually =)
Maybe a some grass patches here and there? I agree with you that too much also isn't a good thing and it can be tricky to find just the right amount sometimes.

Edit: I've started to seach the script codes for the part that defines where the "continu-arrow" in a message box is placed since I want to change it's position.
