[closed for now] Not your ideal mapping workshop

Welcome to a very different type of a Parallax Mapping workshop, where you dont just request for you, but it's also for me and everyone else.

​

So how does this work?
Basically, you will "request" (kinda) - give me an idea for a map, then I will try to create, make a time lapse video for it, and also share the map here for everyone.

But.. but why share it for everyone????
I wanted to try different techniques with each map, it could be with the engine, or it could be with Photoshop it self. So if everyone have the access to those files, they might be able to learn something form the process of it, plus there is also a video for it (you need to remember what I did in that video, in slow motion.....
Or if you are lazy you can just use the map for your games. ezzzzzz pffftttt

Okay, so what can you do huhh??
Since I'm too lazy, here is my deviant art: https://www.deviantart.com/knayter
(please ignore the crappy art I did for the badge)

 

Can I make a request?


I can provide the tilesets, I will send the details over pm, is that fine?

 

@Reese that is totally fine! Feel free to PM me

 

@Reese your request is done. Check your PM for psd file.

Weeeh~ thank you so much for doing this, I won't forget this!

 

REQUEST TEMPLATE


Map name: Bar


Engine: MV


Map size: my screen is 1280x720 and I'm using 32x32 tiles. Size doesn't matter as long as it is the minimum size for my resolution or larger.


Titleset: Celianna's Ancient Dungeons (I cannot link you the files because they are paid here but can PM them to you if you need it)


Idea: It's a small tavern. I'm not really an idea person so I would be fine with however you'd like to do it. But I would like it to have an elevated area, something like this:

Just googled these. I don't own them.

Map style: Peasant, Medieval


Map's Shadow: You can have multiple choice or none: Ambient Occlusion


Map's Time: Night


 - Map Lighting (You only need to fill this in if you selected your map time is Night): Yes / No 


Other: Hm nothing else I can think of. Sorry for being vague. If you don't want to take this request I'd understand lol

 

You request has been added, @jupitersdaughter.


And you don't need to worry, I already own the pack. I'm working on it

 

Thanks so much!

 

@jupitersdaughter your request is done. This map will fit 1280x720 resolution and using 32x32 grid as you requested. I'm not sure this map will work properly on MV because MV use 48x48 grid. if it doesn't work, I will send you the resized version. (note that the resized versione might have lower quality such as pixel break,...)


If you feel happy about it or nothing need to be change, I will send you:


- A PSD File


- 3 layer: high,ground and lighting


- A note with some tint, layer opacity guide,...


- A Parallax Graphic so you could set the passability.

@Knayter She is probably using the Change Tile Size plugin to change the grid size in game to 32. Btw these maps look fantastic! I might have to put in a request for one soon (later today)!

 

Looks fantastic!! And yes as @Arcmagik said I'm using the tile change plugin so no worries!!

 

@Arcmagik thank you  i'm still a noob tho.


@jupitersdaughter Great! I will send you the file really soon. ( I'm going to have dinner)

 

I don't see how you're a newb. Your maps look fantastic to me. With some more outdoor examples, I could see this in the commissions section. 

 

A pre-render/quick preview for @Mikleo's map. Final result might not look like the same!


You will receive map file really soon  

 

Thank you! It looks great!

 

Thank you very much! The map is perfect! This is such a huge help for my project.


Thank you again for the time and effort you put in the making of this map.

 

Are you still making maps?

 

Yes Tanarex, this shop still open  

 

Map name: School House


Engine: RPG Maker VX Ace 


Map size: 5 X 9 ( Example, 32x32) 


Tileset: DS Resource Pack 


Idea:  Small classroom. A single door centered to the south. With a narrow pathway leading to a podium where the teach gives lectures. The path is flanked by chairs and desks for students. A bookshelf in a corner on the north wall and clock on the other side. Maybe a map on the wall behind podium. I could prolly expand the width by two. No modern stuff like blackboard or globe.


Map style: Medieval


Map's Shadow: Object Shadow? I guess.


Map's Time: Day

 

Hello, here is some problem with the map submission


- Your map need to be at least 20x15.


- You need to show me that you own the DS pack by a order paycheck or license file.
