mmmmkay: A problem I see in both of your levels is that your grass and ground tiling is so badly dispersed. It is not in clumps or anything, just sorta placed a couple tiles away from each other all through the level. Cid_Night, besides the house the level is very plain, as in nothing to it. Seeing as it's a spar house, why not add some more benches etc. around the level, on the roof isn't enough. A bit too bland for my liking.

Now toran, for the most part I believe that's a nice level. I'll list a bunch of pointers too improve as well as things that are good. The grass is a big thing to remember. The stream is sort of straight for my liking (as in enters at the top and continues the same straight line down to the bottom.) You can make it meander near the bottom, and make sure to add some shallow water ripples/stones. The cliffs are done to the best of your ability, I'm content with them. The path looks a tad funny because it gets so small from so large, try and make it more balanced. And lastly, the water body. I think the rippples you have are a bit much, take some of them away and distribute them elsewhere on the water. And don't forget, add some water rocks too.

mmmmkay: Yah, and some things I said to toran may apply to your level as well. At least ideas for your next level if using anything related.

mmmmkay: Don't rush. :P You forgot to add shallow water stones/ripples, and the grass is still dispersed badly (That takes a bit though.) And I'd take some water ripples away still...too many. And the water rocks, one here and there, not like 7 in a line. ;D

Cid_Night · #53 07-09-2002, 12:14 PM

ok i redid it a bit, took some of mmmmkay's advice, tell me what ya think...

i don't exactly like rocks popping up in my water.

Torankusu · #55 07-09-2002, 12:23 PM

shallow water stones, and... er, water stones.

Torankusu · #56 07-09-2002, 12:25 PM

Sorry, but I can't delete my own posts for some odd reason.

I forgot to attatch.

gettin better every time toran...but id say....maybe a bit more detail here and there, practice with some fun stuff like edge tiles, thats what the point of my level is, im practicin with rivers and water edge tiles...as well as my building making skills...every level one makes you should learn something. Either a new tile, a new way that the program works...just something you should get better at...

edge tiles?

I'm not trying to put every tile in this level, I just wanted a nice place that you could sit by and enjoy the flowers and waterfalls.

Cid_Night · #59 07-09-2002, 12:33 PM

nah, edge tiles just kinda make it more interesting..its eye candy basically...

Cid_Night · #60 07-09-2002, 01:59 PM

ok another version, the last i think...made the river more interesting and more twisty...made the door smaller to the spar..added some grass on grass edges, used mmmmkay's advice and made some seating and the grass crap more bunched up and not as spread...ummm...think thats it...
