Won't work too well unless you have simple symmetrical objects -
if the image is too complicated in direction(als), then it won't turn out too well when shadowed.

Not necassarily... making like, a shadow template of the image and doing small rotations for each frame would result in a pretty realistic shadow. I don't see what the image being symmetrical has to do with it because it isn't flipping the image to the other side, it would basically be rotated in a graphics program.

Oh, right. I thought you were using GScript's inbuilt rotation stuff until I realised that it doesn't exist yet.

Right, however I'm not sure I'm going for y positioning either... Right now the sun would rise in the east, travel over the land, and set in the west. The shadows would only change x position depending on the sun's position. Y position would be funky for the most part.

Depends on your point of reference. The base of the shadow never moves, but the top moves in both x and y dimensions.

Well what I'm trying to say is that I am just using a copy of the object image as the shadow. So there is no skewing or stretching. Thus it doesn't move in both x and y or it would involve those.

Hmm. There should be some stretching and skewing. Imagine a fence that looks like this: ‡‡‡‡‡ You can't just rotate the fence image or it'll look wrong. You need to skew it.

As for the coloration of the leaves... are you using changeimgcolor? I would.

I'm not using changeimgcolor because the coloration wouldn't be as good, and it also antialiases the image.

[zell12]

you might need a new Levels Team person soon.

[konidias]

Eh... let me just say... I'm not looking for levels people right now. We aren't far enough along for that yet, we still have a bit more to go. I'm not accepting level maker applications now because no one has experience making Oasis levels, and also because like I said, we aren't at that stage quite yet.

Meh. I hate statements like "the coloration wouldn't be as good". It just depends on the scripting; there's more than one way to do everything. And I believe you could do it in such a way that removes the normal blurring effect, or at least makes it insignificant.

There will be enough classic servers
New Classics, You have:
-Era (past,Present,Future)
-Rudora (Piece of crap server which banned me for supposivly logging on the server 3x...but what does it matter everyone can) ("Ban Reason: Newb")
-Enigma Graal (Nice tiles supposivly) (i think they're goin RP style)

And servers that might be Gold Servers:

-2230 (Server of the future, really nice, if your good at gfx contact ghost pirate, he just lost his head gfx person.)
-Tritan (We keep changing ideas X.x)
-Oasis (You know about it)
