to sceptilehero...

the map is roughly colored green/darkgreen/forestgreen...
i should agree with Erimgard and Antwhan...
Also, the trees are looking as if they're forming a line vertically...
I mean, they stand on the same map line...

however, it looks great for a forest route, so, 8/10

A much better improvement, although now it's a forest :P

I agree with Erimgard and Antwhan here, just a little pond to add somewhat of a "feature" or focal point to the map. All in all though a really nice map!

New Rating: 8.5/10

Good Luck with your mapping!

Hopefully it is better than the Route A.

I don think its as good as the other route because if its a first route it should'nt be so complicated

If its not a first route i'd say 9/10

8/10

pretty good. There's a few eyesores though. there seems to be too much of that pathway stuff with the dark green trim around the house, and the way the rock abruptly ends in to grass doesn't look good. I also think you have a few too many bushes near the PC. The corners of the little pond/puddle look odd...there's a blue dot in each one mixed in with the grass. Also, in the bottom left hand corner, there's a border tile missing for the water.
For the most part I like the tiles/pallets but some of them are a little odd.
I agree with Celebi_XD that the rock placement in the water is pretty good
All that aside, it's still a very good map, but with room for improvement.
7/10

Wow good map, I like the rockyness and especially the pallete. The pallete looks very good. And I like the bridge sort of thing.
Good map

There should be no grass in the starting town or you will have a glitch!

There will be no glitches if the hacker won't put any wild pkmns using adv-map. ;)

trainer lupe.., a very nice centre there! I love the palletes of the tiles, too. 8/10

pokeroy, a lovely map there. seems like an early morning feature. 8/10

I can't think of anything else except that your map is really good. It's a good map for a route. However, the second-level ground is kinda empty, ya know. I do think adding some grasses there will make it even nice (and a little grly-touch.., adding some flowers. :D)

8/10

This is a pretty good hack, but it feels like something could be added to make it more special. Some of the rocks placed seemed unnecessary, almost random. I believe more trees should be added to the upper platform, instead of a load of rocks. Anyway, nice tileset and use of color :)

I also believe some spaces between the buildings look a little bare. Maybe some flowers will do the trick. Anyway, when I get enough skills to make a hack, I'll do one. I'm a newbie at hacking, anyway...But love editing Sprites and stuff :P

The city looks pretty bad in general.

When doing cities or towns, it's good to focus on one type of building (for houses) always.

Like you said, the city is very bare in many places of the map. You need to space the houses together a little more. I also believe that the stone path going down the middle is too wide in general. Try to widen it down to 4 or 3 tiles wide. There are obvious tile errors throughout the map.

Also, try to use an actual train track tile set because it really doesn't look good when people improvise to make certain tiles that are non-existent in the rom with already existing tiles. Customization is always a good thing, remember that. Also, never use GB graphics with GBA graphics.

Really, this gives me the impression that the map was just sloppily put together in a short amount of time. You need to pay attention to detail and little faults to make the map true to it's past one or to make it good overall. I'd suggest to completely redo it or at least do a major revamp over it.

3/10

First Route for my hack..Ratezz plz..

destinedjagold December 9th, 2007 4:52 AM

It's a nice map, for a first route, that is... :D
So there's gonna be a cave, ei..? Sweet.
I see no tile errors whatsoever, however, the trees' shadows are kinda weird... Also, the trees looks sad with those colors... :(
But yeah, it's good, considering that the colours have this harmonious effect. :)

I like the mountain you've made there, and I can see no tile errors or anything,
the only problem is that the map is abit of a square so try fixing that;)
But overall it looks very simple and good.

EDIT

This is the new version of my map... (I put them next to eachother so you can see what has changed..:)

Erimgard December 9th, 2007 9:27 PM

well I'm not such a fan of the pallets...but rating this strictly on mapping skills:
The grass on the left side doesn't look right, and the map is a little bit bland. but it's pretty good for a Route 1
I give it 8/10

destinedjagold December 9th, 2007 10:20 PM

it now looks better and square-less now. lovely. 9/10 ;)
