Tile Inserting, The Easy Way!

Nice tutorial, very easy to follow, this will help me greatly :)

EDIT: Didn't work, followed every step but it just didn't even show up. I'm trying to insert one of Alisters tiles, a house.

Umm. . .
Once you have loaded the new tile set and saved it,
you don't have to manually put the new tiles into
the current tile set?

The changes will be instant?
Thanks for anyone who answers! :)

thanks alot, this is a simple and easy tutorial to follow, thanks :)
i CAN get my tiles to appear in the certain palette viewer(image 17 in your tutorial,it is where your tile is), but they do not appear in the actual place where you map them, or in the place where you view what tiles you have (in the block editor).
please help, thanks.
PM me about it if you like

What do you mean by they do not appear in the block editor? Oh. That is because you have to make the blocks by using the image in the palette viewer. I mean, your tiles are inserted, but you haven't made the blocks. The blocks are made by the image in the palette. just click on parts of the images to make a block :S It's not that hard once you insert your tile. if the tile is off centered, open the tileset in paint and move it over a pixel or two. sorry for not responding sooner, I thought this tut was forever lost in the documents & tutorials section XD

It is the easiest thing although i already new how to do all that it sure easy though ^_^

Thanks! I havent got around to editing the most common tiles yet, except the rocks. I made an awesome gym sign though.

gahh, this would've been really helpful if they hadnt removed this function in windows 7.. Dx

i need help. i insent the pokemon center tile from d/p and i recolored it and saved it but want i go to loaded it on to advance it doesn't so were i put it it on my desktop it only shows the tiles that i save to edit but not the new one i saved. not sure what i did wrong. see attachments

I think its not showing up cause when you export a tileset doesn't it ussually come up with a pallette file and all that other stuff, so for it to woork the absence of one of those other files is not tolerable. I donno I'm just playing around with the idea, and great tutorial, the eraser trick is something new, to me atleast :)

So, you saved your Tileset in Paint, and only the old one shows up? Did you save over the old Tileset? Check what it looks like in Paint. Also, if it doesn't work, try it again, save the Tileset somewhere else, copy the Pal file that was saved with the Tileset to the same location as where you just saved it, and look in it then.

well i try that and then find out it was saving it as a bmp and not dib. so i fix that but now i'm stuck again. it not showing up in advance map. i hit load new blocks and new tiles or whatever it is and it still doesn't want to show it and i added more blocks so it would show up but that don't work. should i try cuting the sprite into pieces and see if that will work?

well i did everything in this tutorial and i hit load current palette and write palette to rom witch i don't do those two things before heres what it looks like in my rom thanks for the help. all i'm chancing is the pokemon center and poke mart it shouldn't be that hard.

You added more blocks to the tileset then. :3
That's what happens when you change that value.
