I'm pretty new and I'm trying to make a map on my own from scratch since I really don't like using default assets.


I've already made a pixel art of the whole thing (See below) and I'm trying to figure out how to make tiles from it.
Tried making a sprite sheet for all the parts, but RPG maker is breaking it apart in weird ways and I have no idea how to make it so things like the carpet can be placed over the floor, or walk behind the desk. Sorry if this is asking a lot but its been three days and I can't find a tutorial for this, they all use existing sheets.



And the attempted sheet

there are six different tilesheet formats, and you can only use a specific format in each of the slots - if youi place the wrong tilesheet into a slot, the result is usually a failure in the tileset formatting.


I can't see the images, but most probably you're trying to place tilesheets of simple 32x32 pixel tiles into slots that are intended for one of the autotile formats (which can have different sizes, usually 64x96 pixels for a single tile.


Please refer to the help file and the existing tilesheets to learn what kind of tile needs to be placed where in the tilesheets.

We have a section which deals specifically with the creation/editing etc of resources.  So...


I've moved this thread to Resource Support. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.



Also, can you fix your images.  There is no link, and without being able to see what you have done, advice can only be based on guesswork.

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
To whom ever person or persons who re-did the DS/DS+ asset packs for MV (as in, they are all 48x48, and not just x2 the pixel scale) .... THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!! XwwwwX
