New tileset, well kind of.
Ok, now firstly let me explain what I've done.
I was thinking about tilesets and I looked at the default Graal tileset and realised that there wasn't much wrong with it. Only that it needed to be developed upon. I am only doing this in my spare time, or just to fill in time, so heres my idea.
What I have done so far is firstly I replaced the new house with the old one, because personally I think it looks much better. The one problem with the tileset is there is a limited amount of bits to use. So what I propose to do, and have started doing already, is to use the tileset as a starter, but develope more on to it. What I mean is using the same style make a lot more variation in the pieces.
I have posted an example with the house tiles, I made some more variations of the windows. I want to make about 2 tilesets, one a summer, the other a winter version. I want to make heaps on variation on the tiles, say like 5 different doors, 10 different windows, and 5 different chimneys. Stuff like that.
Also I want to make all the tiles so they can go on different surfaces, like some of the tiles have little bits of grass around them, I will make it so they can go on grass, water and desert tiles, so it looks like they fit in.
So anyone just post your opinion and any comments about the house tiles so far, thanks. Also, do people think this would be good for a server, or would you just complain that its nothing new, and I am too lazy to make my own tileset? |
