I'm using various .png files I got online, mostly ones created for Hoenn and GBA-style Kanto and Johto maps; a lot of them came from this forum. As for what I'm trying to do with it, I'm just trying to create maps for the new region I created for a fanfic project I'm working on. All of the tile...
Tried that too, and it's one of the ones that keeps on rejecting the tilesets I have, so that won't work.
The most promising one for me seems to be Tile Mapper, since you can adjust the tiles to whatever size you need, but unfortunately it keeps on crashing on me AND it refuses to load any of...
I'm having no luck finding a decent tile map editor; every one of them either can't load up any of my tilesets, or crash whenever I try to use them. There's got to be something out there I can use. Any ideas?
I can't; the file extension needed for the file editors that reject the .pngs are in some funky extension like .tvx or something that I can't replicate, and the ones that reject them for being so big count the tiles, and their tile threshold is so small, it's not even worth using them.
I've tried them; they won't take my tilesets because they're either too big or not the right format. I've tried Tiled, TaT, all of the most popular ones, and none of them will work with my tilesets.
Right now, the only program that seems to work for me is the Map Editor 2 for Pokemon World...
I tried that, too, and I got several error messages with the tilesets I got, even though I know they work, so nice try.
Look, if anyone is the idiot around here, it's YOU; map-making programs ARE you guys' foray, whether it be directly for hacking or for a full-on non-rom based game, so if...
Why do I have to have the rom, anyway, when I already have the tilesets I want to use? That makes no sense; there's no point in me going through the trouble to get a rom, hack into it, and mess around with it, just to make the map I want to save as a picture, when I've got the tilemaps I want to...
Sorry, but why should I do a full-blown hack of a game JUST so I can make some pretty map pictures? It just doesn't make sense. I've already checked it out, it's not nearly what I'm looking for, it sucks as far as I'm concerned, and I'm never touching it again, ever.
It doesn't import new tilesets, I have to download a freaking rom to use it in the first place, and contrary to popular belief, I wasn't able to find an option to save your work as an image file...no, thank you, but I'll keep looking, and steer clear of this thing.
Since the romhacking board isn't doing a thing to help me with this, I might as well ask on here; I'm wanting to use all of the tilesets that I've gathered to make a full map of a new Pokemon Region I'm creating for a non-interactive fan project, but so far, I've not been able to find a program...
Thanks for the non-help. BTW, I broke down and tried that stupid AdvanceMap, and it sucks. It's so jumbled and complicated, I dunno where to begin, and I can't see any way to add in your own tilesets, so that's useless to me. So, I was right, that's nowhere near what I need, and I probably won't...
I can't get it to work on RPG Maker XP; it says the tilesets are too big. I tried opening the tilesets on Photoshop, but I get an error when opening the Kanto Outside tileset. What's going on?
But it's still a rom-hacking tool, and frankly, since I'm only going to be using it to make pictures, there's no point in me using it. There's got to be a non-romhack solution with this, people. I just know there is.
Well, that's why I did come here; I'm looking for a tile-based map editor I can use for this project, and you guys usually work with such things for your rom-editing. Plus, I know you guys post images of your creations, so there has to be a map editor that lets you save it as one.
By the by, is...
Those are rom-editing programs, and that's not what I'm doing, here; I'm wanting to use the tilesets to try and make a brand new, non-interactive map for the cities and routes for my Pokemon region, not hack the game. Isn't there any programs that can do that? I read that there's a script you...
