Which graphic is used for the auto-shadow?

My game is all hand drawn and I want to replace the shadow with some crosshatched lines so it looks hand drawn too...

Is it on the window graphic sheet, or is it not a graphic at all?

In the system folder of your game, under "img" you will find two files. "shadow1" and "shadow2" replace both of those with whatever graphic you want :)

You can use a plugin to NOT draw the shadow, and then do it manually using the B-E tiles.

Code:
//=============================================================================
// Remove Shadows (Shaz_RemoveShadows.js)
// by Shaz
// Last Updated: 2018.03.06
//=============================================================================

/*:
 * @plugindesc Removes autoshadows
 * @author Shaz
 *
 * @help This plugin has no plugin commands.
 *
 */

var Imported = Imported || {};
Imported.Shaz_RemoveShadows = true;

var Shaz = Shaz || {};
Shaz.RS = Shaz.RS || {};
Shaz.RS.Version = 1.00;

(function() {

    var _Shaz_RS_DataManager_onLoad = DataManager.onLoad;
    DataManager.onLoad = function(object) {
        _Shaz_RS_DataManager_onLoad.call(this, object);
        if (object === $dataMap) {
            var indexStart = $dataMap.width * $dataMap.height * 4;
            var indexEnd = $dataMap.width * $dataMap.height * 5;
            for (var i = indexStart; i < indexEnd; i++) {
                $dataMap.data[i] = 0;
            }
        }
    };
})();
call it Shaz_RemoveShadows.js

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
