Re: Post screen shots of your quests here.
Aarg! What is wrong with this forest.

It seems no matter what tileset I use it is inevitable that I hate any overworld area's that I construct. It's odd because I never scrap a single dungeon screen. I wish there was like a random overworld generator program or something ...
Re: Post screenshots of your quests here.
I thought your overworld looked more final fantasyish than that. I don'tsee anything wrong with it though.
Re: Post screenshots of your quests here.
I see nothing worng with the overworld screenchot. It looks wonderful. Much better than mine do. Just out of curiosity, why is the combo page on a list of dungeon floor tiles when you're working on a forest?

This is a different quest. It's just that progress has been sooooo slooooooww with the other quest I need a break. Various maps are scattered throughout different quest files and the custom bosses are very time consuming. So far it's like a year long project, and even though i've pretty much finished the tileset and ripped pretty much everything I need at this point, it's like weeks of crap work just getting everything together to start setting up a timeline.
Hopefully in a couple months I can have the entire first world and dungeons done and playable straight through so I can concentrate on the final fantasy worlds. The idea was that it's linear up to a point untill you get the whistle(lute or something...whatever, skin flute...who cares) and then the three worlds become linked and you can warp between them.
I also don't really feel the need to rush it right right now as I don't see there being a high demand for it. I made it with the idea that it would be the longest and hardest <insert penis joke here> challenge quest to date, but it seems we're a dying breed these days.
Well here's some screenshot's of the first world. It takes place somewhere in the likes of, well if there was a third quest for demo.qst. I'll have to release those tiles, they're too cool of classic set tiles, especially the dungeon set.

Hmm..you know, looking back on that shot after a couple of days it's not so bad. I've figured out the trick to making the overworld for me. Get the screen layout in mind then draw everything as fast as possible. That way I don't get tired of looking at it. :D And it's because I was just on a dungeon screen beforehand...of coarse.
Re: Post screenshots of your quests here.
What's wrong with that shot is that there aren't enough trees in it ;)
I love the way DoR allows you to make forests where the borders aren't just stacks of trees like in Pure, because it looks so many times better, but you've gone a little too far I think.
If you were to stick one or two of the 2x2 trees into the floor area aswell as in the brush, I think it would look more foresty
It's still looking pretty good though.
And Overworlds were always easier than dungeons you know :P
Oooh, I like your sword sprite in the subscreen on those newer ones.

Well the thing is 1) I hate using alot of trees, and 2) I design open space differently. First and foremost is what enemies there will be on screen, in this case I have plans for the forest to be home to 2x2 scripted ffc enemies, so walkability is a big factor, plus I already figured out what works better for me. Throw down layer 0,1, and 2 basic layout, then fill the rest in later.

Hah! That's the opposite for me.

Yeah, I just got around to some sprites. Eventually every item will be like that. I am dreading the day I have to make a custom subscreen though.

Boo.

Damn this rain. I can't even see the legendary porn scene hidden here cause of it.
Gleeock:
Your screen is too cramped. It also has too many of the same tiles repeating over and over. I also like shadows. Add more of those. A better palette might be in order as well.

Here's that screen in all it's sexyness without that fugly rain that needs to be replaced.
Re: Post screenshots of your quests here.
Heh, your shots are always so impressive...
Not that you think that I know :P
Where do you get all these graphics from anyway?
Re: Post screenshots of your quests here.
From what I can tell, anything ontop of the mountains are from SD3. I'm guessing the mountains are from Rudora? But I have no clue as for the water.
BTW: Excellent work, Revfan! :D
Been awhile since I've shown anything, so here's a "collection of moving screenshots" for LoRII:

EDIT: Forgive me for the crap quality, but I've yet to find a way to export it with good quality.

The above image (the outdoor one) had tiles from SD3, Rudras, some Final Fantasy game, and various edits/recolorings from Pure/DoR. The indoor image in this post has Terranigma tiles exclusively.
Just been compiling old stuff that I did ages ago and making boring screens with them, nothing new here. Look around on PureZC hard enough and you'll find all of this stuff.
