Celianna's Parallax Tiles

[Chaos17]

I saw Celianna using a script in Photoshop in one of her video but I don't know what it really do and where to find it.

 

[Celianna]

I don't use any scripts in Photoshop, I really do paste in the floor all over the place. It doesn't take that long, 1 32px tile becomes 1 64px tile, and double that, and keep doubling it and you've got it in less than a minute.

Buuut, some of my tiles are autotiles. Simply put them into a tileset yourself, and you're good to go.

New update:

Some orchestra hall tiles! I needed these myself ... I think I went a bit overboard on the details. All the walls are autotiles, the fences and pillars are repeatable in the middle - and the row of seats is repeatable as well. The curtains are repeatable in length only. Look at me making stuff easier for you guys.

Wow! They look incredible, Cel. That piano, especially. So much detail!

I'm so making some sort of concert scene with these!~

 

[Celianna]

Yes, the piano! I was putting in way too much detail on the inside that I found it a shame that it'd be covered up ... so I put in a version that's open. Not that anyone would use it XD

Superb! Greco-Roman pillars and some renaissance stuffs are just what I'm looking for! Thank you Celianna

 

[Quigon]

These are really cool, always wanted a bigger variety of instruments! Thanks dude.

 

[Strawberrycat24]

These are incredibly lovely Cel. n_n too bad they clash with my own custom stuff.

I would totally use them if they didn't.

 

[Elements]

Respect where respect is due, these are amazing.

 

[tpasmall]

Beautiful stuff.

 

[Seanna]

This definitely make an awesome concert hall, thanks for sharing this Celianna.

I like the piano, it's very classy and detailed.

really cool tiles for parallax mapping... XD

 

[Chaos_Prime]

Hey I'm wondering if you would allow anyone to create tile sets out of these?

Cause I would try using GIMP but that program hates me and I always screw something up.

 

[Celianna]

You can create a tileset for personal use, I don't mind.

 

[Ronove]

So pretty! Loving the new tiles.

 

[Chaos_Prime]

Now I guess I can wait until someone more skilled than I am with Gimp or photoshop can make the tile sets.

 

[Celianna]

You'll have to request someone to do that, because it's not going to happen anytime soon.

Have you checked out Celianna's Tileset?

You've helped me in my topic (Albeit I felt cryptically ), thank you for that. Also, thank you for these. I will take use of some of these for my personal projects to come, and I appreciate what you've done to bring these out. HOWEVER, I have a question. You and HK both, throw up your walls. Let me ask you, how do you use walls in Parallaxing? I've NEVER understood that. Like, what part do you cut off and work with? BAAAH it boggles my mind! And i've been doing parallaxing for ages! XD

Thanks again, for helping and for these!

Wall autotiles are divided into 16x16px corners, 32x16px vertical and horizontal sides (can be repeated), and the middle is 32x32px which is repeatable from any side.

Basically, what you do, is copy the wall, but don't include the far right or far left side (that is, if you're placing them horizontally, if you're stacking them vertically, then you don't copy the bottom), and then paste it every 32px.

Wall autotiles are easy to understand once you know how they're built. Here's an image to help you understand:

Corners are NOT repeatable. The sides are only repeatable horizontally, or vertically. The middle is repeatable on any side.

That's an awesome explanation Cel n_n You get cookies for that!

Thank you for this. I'll definitely have to mess with wall tiles more. Remember the image you linked at the top of your first post? (The old parallax tutorial from VX), I always had trouble with that one when I started. I hope someone makes as detailed of a guide for ACE though, maybe includes the 'cheat sheet' scripts like map screensaver and such so people can have those parallax short cuts from the beginning. Parallaxing really produces great results, especially when you use tiles like these. Thanks for splitting them too, nothing more frustrating than trying to cut out a chair from a tileset that's made to be placed as a base, not used in parallax XD
