Map name: Fernwood Town
Map game: Pokemon Plasma Red(Gold Hack :P)
Comments: A very simple map which includes your house, the lab is not in the map as many other hacks have but now the lab has become a cave to the lower right. Also as you can see the palletes of the map are the night palletes.

Map Name: None yet.
Map Game: Pokémon Emerald Version
Comments: No really, it's Pokémon Emerald. I used big trees and mountains from FireRed/LeafGreen, small trees and grass from Gold/Silver/Crystal. I hope it's allowed... otherwise, just tell me, and I'll replace the tiles.

pachel22, the problem is not the palette, it's the map.
This month's topic is Towns/Cities.
I'll update the first post with the new entries but it'd be better if every map had a name.

Semele
July 2nd, 2007, 04:20 PM
I said all R/B/Y, G/S/C and R/S/E/FR/LG styled tilesets, the ones pachel22 and Latieon posted are okay, just not some tiles exported from other games that don't match with the other tiles.

Hm? Hello? Why isn't my map added to the first post yet? It's definitely a town (well, actually, only half of it, the other part isn't done yet)! And it uses GSC and RSEFRLG styled tilesets!
Semele
July 4th, 2007, 07:03 AM
Your map isn't really a town. It only has a gym and a lab.
And you said it has another part. When you finish it post the whole map and I'll put it in the first post.

Name: Pacifica Town
Game: Standard Emerald
Comments: I was considering making this my starting town, as it is based off of Littleroot. Also, I haven't yet decided if that tree is going to have storyline significance or not.

As much as I like my own map, I have to give my vote to Florahill Town by Latieon.

You'll have to follow the form in the first post or your vote won't count.

Map name: Floralhill Town
Reason: It's neatly designed, and not empty or so crowded that it makes the map look weird. Using some custom tiles also helps the overall look of the map. Simply put, it's a well-designed map. :)

Floralhill Town (Fire Red) - Latieon
or
Anonymous Town - Prof. 9
Hmm.
I'm going to go with...
Vote: Anonymous Town - Prof. 9
Reason: I like the placement of each house, and the mountains and trees are well thought-out and conveniently placed.
Just.. looks the nicest, in my opinion.
destinedjagold
July 17th, 2007, 04:39 AM
Though I want to vote for my own map, which may be not a valid vote, I should go with...
Map name: FloralHill Town by Latieon
Reason: The map is very well made. I like it.
I wonder what is the next topic would be...
linkandzelda
July 17th, 2007, 08:16 AM
Map name: Floralhill Town
reason: I think its perfect. Its realy good
Prof. 9
July 17th, 2007, 11:36 AM
Map Name: Starter Town [-] D-Trogh
Reason: It looks really cozy in that nice little town, it makes me want to live there. I also love the way he placed the flowers, trees and grass, it's completely random, and that's good.
There ARE a lot of flowers near the forest entrance, but no map is perfect. So this map gets my vote!

Map Name: Veriota City by Dark_porygon
Reason: altough it has small map error which can be fixed, Veriota City has caught my eye. It's small but still very nice.
Midnight Beat
July 18th, 2007, 05:44 AM
Map name: Florahill
Reason: I can't tell what city it is built off which, to me, means the author is very creative. It also is a rather large city that isn't over or undercrowded. Well done.

July 18th, 2007, 04:57 PM
Map name: Floralhill Town
Reason: Well, the map could use work, but still, it's the best one of the entrees, and I was also very impressed by the D/P stairs that go to the side. So, that's my vote.
Latieon
July 25th, 2007, 09:11 AM
Baah...Id really have loved to vote for my own map.
Well because thats not permitted ill vote for the second best
Map name: Starter town
Reason:Eventhough it looks more like a garden,the positions of the houses and that hill looks great.
Well it can have some alterations.
cooley

Map Name: Fernwood Town(Gold)
Reason: Favorite hacker and this gives me the feeling that I'm not Playing Gold version, he also showed me that you can make any kind of hack and it doesn't have Fr/Lg/R/S/E to have good Graphics. This Map is Perfect.

Map Name: Greenwood Town (http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q105/u_have_dogsbreath/goldmappy.png) (Gold) - johnlycett
Reason: It was the only one I could conceivably see being in an actual Pokemon game. Most of the others were a little gimmicky, plain, or cluttered. This one does remind me of New Bark Town a little, though in this case I think that may be a good thing. The only problem I have with it is that it doesn't have a route leading into it- only a cave and a lake.

Map name:Florahill town (firered) Latieon

And I simply like it. (+ He's using my tiles :D )

I am happy to have won this July map making contest and hope to compete and win in the following map making contests too.
I should add that every map submitted in this thread were really well made.
It wouldd have been very tough for the voters to choose a map of their choice to vote.
I am thankful to all those who voted for me.
Well Done to all who participated
