Have you created a map?

Post by Ian »

Hi,
I'm just curious how many mapmakers are out there. (Well, I know Tom and Nyktos creating maps but I'm sure there are more.)
Even if you have only created one map, please notify me. Post your map here and we'll find a use for it.
This should help to count how many guys are out there having played/ playing around with Tiled.

Thanks in advance!

I'm playing around with Tiled and pixel art. I'm also curious how many people are making pixel art, editing tiles for AT. Nyktos has mentioned Nor City tiles. Who else is?

im also working on modifying some monsters,
but im not sure if my adjustments are "going in the right direction..."
i can post them soon to get some opinions.

[just saying that im not only making maps, but editing existing tiles & making new ones]

Ian needed a few specific spiderwebs, and i made a few of those from skratch - a lot of fun!
im not sure if we are using them, or if they are included?

either way, it was a blast.

i also have a female version of our hero that i abandoned / put on the back burner...
there is a thread about it somewhere with my progress posted.

she doesn't look that bad!

:lol:

a choice of a female or male character at the start of the game would be an awesome idea.

we now have the ability to make tiles react to the player,
so things like more varying traps & puzzles are now possible...

every map maker will have unique & original ways to implement this...
and I, for one, am really looking forward to others ideas on this.

i already have a few thoughts that i hope bring a new level of "awesomeness" to the world of AT.

as for the female heroine,
here is the last image posted in the other thread...

Thanks for the link nyktos. This looks very interesting indeed. But I see there is some disagreement. Hopefully the artists figure that out :)

Thank you all for your input! There are at least some people creating maps Tiled or being familiar to it.
But having people who're playing around with pixel art is great too! :)

Btw, Matt, thanks again for cobwebs! I'm using them a lot! You can find them in map_pillar_1 but due to the white background in Tiled, you can't see them but they're there. ;)
And I like your gender option idea and that the female char follows has the same style like the male one!

Hello Guys!
Because this is my first post i have to say: im really addicted to AT :).
But lets get back to topic.
I started playing around with Trail, then i hung a little bit more in it and now im on the way to do a new Quest and about 4-6 maps for it.

none of then is actually ready because the are some obstacles to get the Quest/map working. thats all i have to tell right now cause i dont want to spoil the quest ;)
But ive got two Questions which might be answered in this thread:
1: How do you test your maps? Which Andorid Emulator do you use? i downloaded ADT Bundle but still dont understand why it isnt working...

2:Who would be kind enough to answer some questions about mapmaking? And yes, i already have read all tutorials.
