[MZ]Looking for DLC/Asset info: Shadow Sprites and Castle and Church interiors

[davejtd]

I'm new to the RPGM scene and have been having fun building a nice little town for an idea I have. My questions are:

A. Which DLC pack gives the castle and church interiors (and better exteriors)? I think it's one of the medieval packs, but I just want to be sure.

B. Is there a way in the base creator to make all black shadow-like sprites? Or is that part of a DLC? Or an asset I can find somewhere?

For B, the answer is simple: make any sprite shape you want in the generator

and export them as usual. Then open them in GIMP (it is free, other programs are an option, but I mostly gravitate to that for such tasks) and do the following:
Color - Colorize and then

Lightness to -1 and you are done. Works on all types of graphics.

Awesome, ty. Now that you mention it... it seems so obvious

And talking about castles, there are more resources out there if you also own MV, but for MZ I have made a huge set of castle resources:

I love your descriptions every bit as much as I love your graphics LOL.

Wecoc also has an amazing dark castle set:

Thanks! This stuff is great! The only thing is I'm bad at tileset management so maybe some stuff I can just use as is? I'm not great at tileset management either, and when making graphics I don't like restricting myself to the default tileset structure. Also, not everyone maps the same way...

You can use the walls for the inside as well, so you would mostly need some matching furniture, but that all depends on what type of castle you want to make and so on.

Just having some different colored and shaped roofs will be helpful too! Thank you.

The base Maker really doesnt come with a lot of building options >.<

If we talk about different shaped roofs, I have several edit tutorials that might help you along the way:

I have written a lot of Tutorials over the years, and to make it easier for you guys to find what you need, I set up this "hub" where you can overview and access them all! Some were written with a specific engine in mind, and while e.g. the water autotile tutorial only applys to MZ because of...
