Worst level I have seen you make, Cliff's are all wrong, Shadow's are aswell. Even the tree's. House look's like it is offground but then goes back onto ground..

You never read what I wrote did you?

i think the cliff shaping is great, they dip in an out in tight angles, but still look natural around bends.
a big improvement since the beginning of the thread

Ok, first off, thanks for all the replies.

Second, two noob questions:

1) How do you take screen shot of the whole level?
2) How do you get the trees to look like that, is that all tile work or gifs/whatever? Mine ‘squares off’ when I try to do it.

Now, the next question is to GoZelda - I’m not sure how you’d feel about this, probably not to good but the adapted level you made, would you be able to stick it up so I can download and use parts off the cliffs? I started making some but couldn’t get the shape I wanted because I couldn’t find the tiles to do it. If you would mind, it would be very much appreciated.

Back to open questions. In the attachment where I have ringed the grass edge, is there any way of avoided the ‘outlined’ and ‘un-outlined’ grass edge so it is constant. I.e. one or the other?

Go fullscreen in the level editor -> play - alt+f4alt+f4 = alt+2

Uhm, ok.. Well what in particular ? Colours, shapes, tiles ?

If your going to knock me, at least try to help me improve on what you don't like.

Didn't read the thread just look at terrible levels.. anyways if you want to get better trying doing a couple tutorials.

There is a sticky thread perfect for you..
http://forums.graalonline.com/forums...ad.php?t=47045

You can check out my tutorial, one of Gori's and some hints from other like Eric1337 and mmmkay. If you were around about 2 years ago you would be building with a crowd of the best Level Makers to walk Graal. Now they all left.

I already told you. I said you should take those silly bricks out of there and replace it with dirt.

Wow you must really look at yourself like a master lat, at least you sound like it...
Lets all hail Spanky the allmighty one who obviously is one of the "BEST" "level" "makers" on "graal"

zell12 · #27 12-09-2004, 02:01 PM

Well, there are some of us still left on here.

But I really don't think Spanky is trying to act like he is the best at all. ^_^

phildoc · #28 12-12-2004, 08:48 PM

Well, last few days I have been setting up my new PC.

I've just sat down to do some work on the level, and thought before I do it all and post, i'll show you what I have change (Very Little) and see if you like it. ::EDIT:: The style of it that is.

NONONO, YOU DID IT ALL WRONG!

It looks to much like mine.

So okay. It doesn't look really bad for what I presume is one of the first times, but you should really cut on the long grass [not swamp] and add some other lil' tiles.
