Hmm....
9/10 for effort.
6.5/10 for errors.

I finally inserted desert tiles, and most of them are complete. Heres a map I made with them:

@Austinia: It seems very nice, and I'm not gonna say it's too square because it's a desert! :P
The little water supply like the ponds and lake is very good...9.5/10

@Osher99: I'm not gonna rate ur map for obvious reasons...:\

i did the same thing and rebuilt whole azelea town, tin tower, ecruteak city and olivine city^^
if you put my map next to a mapshot of the gold map you cant tell which is the original one

Ninja Caterpie July 22nd, 2008 2:16 AM

Not unless you know the GSC palletes because I've seen your's and the pallete is just a tiny bit different.

Anyway, Austinia, loving it. I like the water, shallow ponds, shape (don't care if it's square) and the cacti placement. Lovely. 8/10

i think the sand iss better in the first one and the roofs, plants and mountains look better in the second one, so ill probably mix em up

EarthsVisitor July 23rd, 2008 9:07 AM

Okay, back to rating maps. Like db, I am very critical and harsh with my ratings. Maybe not AS harsh, but still harsh. Here we go!

There is ONE thing I like, sort of. And that is the placement of the houses. The tiles are gorgeous. But. The map saddens me. The river on top looks so awkward along with the fence around the whole town, that just looks bad. And in terms of pokemon gameplay, there so many places for him to exit the town. I don't like the area behind the mart.
3.5/10

Too many flowers together. Lots of emptiness. Many tile errors. Weird placement and bad overall structure.

Boxy, random placement of houses. Random lake which feels disconnected with the rest of the map. Palette is weird and disalarming.

Now, this is MUCH, MUCH better. I LOVE the concept of this map, with the river flowing inbetween and coming off the mountain into the desert. I love that idea! And I think you pulled it off pretty nicely. I enjoy the bottom area. There is just enough trees and rocks. There are only 2 things I would address. The house tiles, don't seem to fit well in the rocky area. And the right area of the mountain, it feels disconnected and out of place. Make the are more shapely.
8/10

Alright, the map itself first. Nice tiles. My issues with this map are:
It feels crowded.
The house on the left feels too close to the exit.
The gray rocks do not fit in the desert.
Everything else seems alright. It's a nice little town. I think the placement of the houses could be improved though. Make the map a little bigger.
6/10

As for which palette, I leave you instead with a question.
Do you want a more evil looking town, or a happier, more pleasant town?
Cause the first palette gives the town this dark and mysterious look such as in the old western movies.
The second palette gives it a more welcoming and inviting town look.
:]

I noticed those 3 things too already
but i dont think theyre too bad, so i jsut posted the map to look what other ppl think about them. i think ill change tose things

about the palettes: ive decided to take the second one, but with another palette. the sand is darker as in the first image, but still more yellow, not so orange

0m3GA ARS3NAL July 23rd, 2008 9:45 AM

Try these (I wasn't using Imageshack before, Try it now in these spoilers ^)

.Iramet July 23rd, 2008 11:15 AM

yea i knew that map wasnt very good i was just trying to get a map on here becuz ive been trying for a while to do it^_^
@blackrainbow:Everyone uses others tiles its not wrong^_^
At least my map is original.LOL

BlackRainbow* July 23rd, 2008 11:25 AM

oh yeah it is. You have to get permission to use it.
Sorry for spamming

Luck July 23rd, 2008 11:59 AM

Or else it would be considered thievery.

here is a map i made, its supposed to be a semi-tropical route.

tell me if you don't see it.
and please use constructive criticism since this is the first completed map i've made in a while.
honestly, im a bit dissapointed in this map.

Edit: If anyone woders why the trees are like that, its because i just hate trees with patterns.
its not very natural to me.And also, i have changed the grass to be R/S/E like, leaving more space.

Neti July 23rd, 2008 12:02 PM

hey i love that map, it looks really nice!

erm, thanks but could you tell me what is wrong and give a honest rating?

Anyways, i found another map, but i made this map more mountainous since a crater apparently landed into the center(erosion took care of the crater).
i made this map to be more mountainous, but i put trees because i just hate treeless areas.

like before, please give a detailed description about what is wrong.
i really don't like this map much because it seems really crowded, but i do like the mountain tile placement.
And again, tell me if you don't see it.

Oh, and the barred door is just as useless as the white rock in mossdeep.
Just an easter egg.
