Tile Set Ideas - Gauntlet + FFA

[Joe123]

It's for 2.10 - And I have submitted it to PureZC.

I might put it into colour sometime soon, it would just be a lot of effort seeing as I'd have to do all the palettes myself. Although I had heard tell of a colour version of FFA. Is this true or not?

[Lotus_Eater]

They remade it for the Cell Phone, but I know very little of it.
Making it color should be really easy, just alter the palettes, right now they are all gray, just make one shades of green, blue, brown, red, pink, etc.

[Joe123]

It doesn't work quite like that, seeing as I have to sort out monsters which fit only into certain Csets, all of my sprites into some Csets and everything, but I've started doing it now. I've done Csets 2,3 and 4, which is most of the overworld colours, plus Cset 6 for the main character, swimming tiles and Pol's Voice, and also the Csets for when you get the different armours. I'm just about to start planning out my enemy Csets - thats the big problem.

Eh, it shouldn't be too bad, I look forward to a color version. Final Fantasy Classic, the new Classic tile set!

So far your work has been great. I look forward to seeing more.

[Joe123]

Well, I've done quite a lot of work on the tileset now. It's by no means finished; I've done very little work on the overworld and underworld tiles other than choosing Csets 2,3 & 4 and colouring about 10 tiles or so, but I've finished doing the enemies and sprites (although not the item sprites). Could someone have a look through and tell me what they think please

FFA Tileset

Whoooaaaaa. NICE! I wouldn't make the ordinary ground such a rich green, but other than that..... hot damn.

[Joe123]

heh ok I'll tone it down a bit. It'll be quite a long time before I've finished though.

[SpacemanDan]

Wow... Those look really good. It'll be a tileset I'll have to check out when it's finished. :)

[Joe123]

Well I've knocked up some more screens just because its fun really. I've finished doing all of the sprites and overworld tiles now, and I'll have an updated version up soon. I've started looking into Level Palettes, but I'm not really getting too far, if there's anyone who could give me a hand it would be very much appreciated.

[Sam Atoms]

Wow. I continue to be amazed beyond words.

I wouldn't worry too much about the level palettes, as long as all the raw tiles are there, for each level you can just pick a few base colors and use them to recolor the dungeon tiles, similar to the way the level palettes in the original LOZ are arranged. You could even leave the palettes to be filled in by the questmaker. If I were designing the level palettes, I would start by making a white one and then one more for each of Roy G. Biv.
