@ Colorful Summer: It's mainly he line extends all accross the bottom of the building.

Anyway, I worked on something a little different, recently. I haven't worked on one of this since I was making my ROM hack Pokémon Harmony. It's a new region map, and it's going with my remapping project. I made it in a mostly HG/SS style, but added some of my own style to it. No part was actually taken from the HG/SS map, though, it was all sprited by me. Included in this post is the kit, if you want to make a region yourself.

WOW! I love the region map. It's just the combination of the brilliant textures and the awsome shading that make it look so good. the only thing I don't like is how you can't
see the rest of that one mountain.

Alistair September 2nd, 2009 6:36 AM

Yeah, I really don't like it either. I don' know what I was thinking when I did it. XD

Anyway, slight tileset update. I added a new buildling, some new pieces for it, my own grass tile (complete with my own palette) and a path tile. I also changed the bright grass and the paths in my Ochre Town revision to the new ones.

amazing job with the orche town picture but I think for the house thats downward to the left the tree should be remove to see the window, but this is a amazing picture


:t354:TG

Alistair September 11th, 2009 12:47 PM

Yeah, I see what you mean. I'll change it.

Anyway, I posted this on dA a while ago, but haven't posted it here yet because, well, I don't know. But anyway, I made a new building. It is kind of a new ferry dock, but it can be whatever you want it to be. I know it's quite bright, and I do plan on altering the palette a bit.

And I haven't been spriting lately for multiple reasons. I have been working on how to draw (which is something I suck hard at), I have been doing homework, and I have been playing HeartGold version and Animal Crossing.

But yeah, I'll make some new tiles eventually and some maps to go with them.

I think you should change the shadowing under each of the pictures to a different color so the 6th building looks proper (the one with the pool on top). Also for the 7th building I think you should put windows crossing the full building but other then that I love the coloring and shading of these


:t354:TG

Alistair September 14th, 2009 6:55 PM

About the shadows, the reason they are all that color is because that is the color I have set as the transparent color in RPG Maker. I do that because I make my maps in RPG Maker, and because it actually gives them the shadow effect on the maps. About the windows, I can see where you're coming from. I'll try it the next time I get into a spriting mood.

Anyway, let's not all comment at once, guys. >.<

Joking aside, I have some new things to show you. I made a new tree. The old one seemed quite out of place compared to the rest of the tiles, and it didn't really fit in with the tiles everyone else is making in this style. I also made a new grass, because I always thought the hand-drawn one looked really weird when put into a map.

Lovely map, Alistair. And the tiles are as beautiful as ever. :D

I know what tiles I want to use for a hack. ;D

sab September 15th, 2009 4:47 AM

brilliant tiles as always alister! I don't like the new tree as much as the other one but, eh, such is life. the grass looks perfect, and it flows beautifuly in this map. keep up the good work!

Alistair September 16th, 2009 5:37 AM

Thanks for the comments, guys.

@Sab: I honestly would have never thought someone likes the old tree better than the new one. I may still use it every once in a while.

Anyway, I have started to piece together my fan-maps to make my fan-region Turra. As you can see here, I pieced together the starting town (Silver Town) with the first route (Route 112) and the second town (Greenburg). When I get the chance, I'll update the region map to include the area below Silver Town, as well as do some various improvements on it.

But yeah, credit goes to Kyledove for some of his amazing tiles. This map project is going to be one of the few where I don't actually make all the tiles myself, and use others' to speed up the process. Of course, the majority of them will be mine, though.

BEWARE! Large image.

Neo-Dragon September 16th, 2009 8:28 AM

Your buildings are so different then everybody else's work. The colors smack my eyes when I look at them, but not in a bad way, it really grabs my attention.
The green color used for the path in the lower part of the map is a real sick green or something and looks like it has no detail because of the colors (the pixels on the path are barely noticeable).
The new trees are great. I love the shading at the top part the most.

Oh and the dusty path (or whatever it's called, the brownish yellow path lol) looks great with the more rounded corners.

Andrew McKenzie September 18th, 2009 8:57 PM

Hey Alistair. It's nice to see you're still at the great work.
It seems you've definitely improved from the last time I viewed the thread(a half of a year ago).

I'm working on a Pokemon Comic and I was wondering, with your permission and where credit is due of course, if I could use some of your older tiles and some of your newer ones.

I know I have to steer clear of the tiles you mark as special permission and only for certain people so I'm just asking about the other ones which are public domain.

Of course, they are your tiles and your license clearly states you have the right to refuse me permission.
If you say no then I won't bother you about them again.

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ September 19th, 2009 8:40 AM

I just love the way you did these buildings

Plenty of people use Alister's tiles for comics. If your wondering which ones are for public use and which ones aren't, I cleary remember Alister saying that any tile not specificly stating that is not for public use, can be used. Then again Alister could have changed his rules about comics, but I don't think he did.

Andrew McKenzie September 19th, 2009 3:48 PM

It's alright now, I got him over PM and he said it's all good, that he just needed to know who was using them, etc and what for.

As for continued work Alistair, I wish you good luck, your stuff is excellent as always.

Merovin September 25th, 2009 5:04 AM


Those are some incredible tiles, I don't know what it is about them, but they really grab my attention. Everything seems to flow together nicely. Excellent work with these tiles.

Alistair September 29th, 2009 9:14 AM

Well, I haven't really been spriting many tiles lately. I updated the set a while ago with an edit of an already existing building, but never posted it here. So, I will.

In addition to that, I am starting work on a pixel art comic. I made the main character, Harv, and here he is. I know it's lacking in detail, but I hope to improve as I sprite more.

Yep. It's a good map in general. They're all his tiles all except the houses, and the mailboxes. Anyway great updates Alister. The only thing I dont like is the little grass. I know wild grass is hard to make, but you've done so good on the rest of your tiles, it would be ashame to make this one bad...

Alistair October 14th, 2009 5:22 AM

Okay, so guys, I am thinking about not making tiles anymore. It is something that I have been thinking about for a while. No, it has nothing to do with the little squabble with Ravecat in the Game Dev section and no, it has nothing to do with people rarely using my tiles. I have just grown really bored with spriting tiles. That said, I am thinking about doing some bigger pixel projects, mainly to increase my skills. What would you guys say to that?

Oh, and Sab, that is my mailbox. ;)

~JV~ October 14th, 2009 6:51 AM

Oh, I understand your point... Well, actually I'm using your new set of tiles, mainly the buildings, I thought they were the best you released. Anyways, good luck on whatever you're going to do, good luck!
