That spar room is REALLY cool. I'm gonna have to go check it out now D:

Just a couple of minutes in to exploring and I'm all ready loving it. I think it's all the little touches...I really like the church and the mirror effect at the barber shop is awesome. I also really like the way you did stairs/EVERYTHING.

A ton of attention and detail went into this city. This is clearly an example of WHAT to do when designing a tileset.

And this is just the beta, I can't wait for the full OW which I heard was going to be released in a weeks time.

Well the point of my post was to really post definitive proof. The screenshot given wasn't enough to really end the argument as to whether it was stolen or not, so I did so. Also, you posted after the screenshot was shown and such and never said anything about changing it, so ya, it's not like hearing echoes because you never said you were changing it before.
As for hard feelings, nah, of course not.

Screenshots don't do the town justice guys, you have to run around in the town to appreciate all the fine details, the way the town actually feels like a port town, etc.

Trust me, I'm not easy to please and this impresses me. Truly a 9/10 town.

Yeah, the town detail is absolutely incredible. I was able to see a decent portion of the development process and the attention to detail was absolutely ridiculous, in fact, as a developer who did, errr, "some" stuff, it was pretty annoying at times.

But as Crono said, just walking through you get an awesome feeling for how great it is.

It's nice but theres way too much gray and blue :-(

I'm loving the tileset and other graphics completely.

I truly like how people are complaining about copying a single floor pattern from a semi-obscure game made about 13 years ago, when we're all playing a game that was almost an exact copy of Zelda: Link to the past.

It's not like it's copied from another server, and it's not like the "stolen" content is even something that's copyrighted or illegal to copy.

It was a recolor. Graal's tileset, however, is redone, however similar it is. Copying gameplay and taking graphics from a game and recoloring it is two completely different things. As for it being an obscure game, does it matter? It's still stolen whether it's from that game or Final Fantasy.
Also, you say it as though stealing graphics from another server is worse than stealing from a commercial game.

The problem has been acknowledged by the staff and they say they're going to change it, so what's the problem? x-x

I was replying to the post before mines? Perhaps I should have quoted him.

Oh ya, after actually going through the place. I notice you use a lot of horizontal stair graphics. I think it would benefit a lot if someone scripted you to actually follow the steps and go upwards with them, instead of pushing against the tiles.

Would be neat actually.

Spar room is updated. It now has a /join spar system. Use /line to see the list of people in line.

Two new screens added on top, the left one shows the person next (showing his head and nickname), the second one isn't functioning yet but will show win streaks (an important aspect in the ranking system).

Yes the nicknames in the screens scroll from right to left in a loop

Two ways to mess up the spar, joining the line when you are in the spar and both fighters dying.
