More Oasis stuff :)

[konidias]

Well, since every thread I make here ends up being like 4 pages long and goes way off of topic, I can't really post these in an old topic of mine. I have been working on some new things for Oasis, and something that will really enhance levels and gameplay..

That something is.. HILLS! But not hills like 3d on 2k2, and not hills like walk around as in cliffs.. but actual hills that you can walk on. The hills at the moment just have some basic structure, and the tiles for it suck at the moment so bare with me (as do a lot of the tiles that are just being made to test the stuff)

When the player goes "up a hill" their speed will decrease and they will look to be rising up the hill.. much like 2k2, but this isn't 3d land. When I get the hill tiles fixed and finished (and redone) there will be enough different tiles to make a variety of hills.. from huge hills to small hills, and even sunken in areas of land.

Oh, and just to say this ahead of time.. I have not seen this on any other pw or heard about it, so if someone jumps here and screams that I stole it from them, relax, because I had no idea anyone else was making it.

Anyway, enjoy the pic.. even though the hill looks like crud, you can get the general idea.

Here's a shot of the test level.. see I only have like, one level that I have been testing in.. and also note that this won't be in the actual world.. it will be removed when I start to actually make levels.

You stole that idea from me! NO!!@!@!@!!@!#~#~~#~$~@~
Ahem...
Anyway it looks pretty neat, well actually it doesn't but the idea is pretty neat.

LOL and this is just testing of different house looks.. basically

and yes.. the door does open (and animate)

lol yeah.. well I originally had the hills lighter when I made the tiles but I didn't think they would stand out enough, so I darkened it up and put it in the tileset, and it was too dark and ugly, I just basically did a crappy spraypaint job on it just to get something that resembled a hill so I could test the uphill movement and stuff.

The hills look a little wierd, but everything else is nice. Well also, I really think you should flip the roof around, like this:

Thanks.. well I only have one style of house.. but there are going to be many different types.. so I will most likely make a house with a roof like that.. I plan on having a good dozen different house styles when I'm done with the tileset, so that towns can look really unique and houses will look different instead of all the houses being the same design with a different colored roof.

DarkLegacy: I really love the look of that door when its open like that, and as for the dozen different house designs Koni, All i have to say is that your a Tilemaker Fiend.

with the addtiledef, can u choose which tiles are blocking and which arent??

[Lao_Su2]

I like the hill idea i dont know how it is going to look though..Is it going to be how it is there just the tiles will be fixed up more?
Also the door looks great and i think that you should keep the roof the way it is heh..How many different types of houses will you be having?

Looking good Konidias. I wish you luck.
