Could you tell me why you think the water dosn't look like a pond? Should I make it more transparent? Should I make it a lighter blue? Should I have make it so you can see the ledge under the water? Sorry for so many questions. I just want to know more about what you see. I'm gonna work on fixing the trees and the grass when i get home. Thanks evryone for your support.
It's nothing about the water. But here...



What is this part? It's kinda bugging me because of the jaggy stuff...

Azumi, I know you didn't agree with Colorful's approach but there's no need to bring it up, it just derails this topic further.
I apologize.

I apologize.
Can't tell what your talking about so...If your talking about the brown and blue combination color that's the wall that's under water. As for the jagged place where the water and outside wall meet the reason its jagged is because wind makes small waves in lakes and causes the water to hit the side. Thanks for your feedback .:)

I just updated.

I Added a house, worked on the water, and put new outlines on all the houses.

Please comment on the new house. I still need a tutorial for making a mountain/cave tile. I will probably add a poke lab next or mountain if i get a tutorial.

Lake: After
Pokemon Center : Before

well that is my opinion and i meant what i said in a good way
Thanks I kept the lake tile like you said i should.:)

That's a little too light. The outlines should be something between black and the darkest shade of red/grey.
Yup i did that too. What do ya think of it now?

EDIT:
Alright i just added the poke lab and cave tiles. Please rate and give me feedback.:)

Hmm.. The wooden house's roof has been bugging me a bit, because of the black web of black lines.

You know how you did the window openings on the ceilings of the blue houses? Make them miniature and cover the black roof with them. It shoud fix it.
The point of that "black web of black lines" is to show shingles... putting window openings all over the roof... I don't really think that's that great of an idea... it'll clutter it up to much... but of course if i get more complaints on this I will of course make it the way you all think it should be. Thanks for your feedback though.:) What do ya think of my other tiles?

I actually like the look of the trees as they are, makes it kinda different and uniqe from most tilesets on here. And also, Reck, the water, needs to not have such a plain square type border. You got the jagged part in the water alright, but its not a perfect square on the outside either. The way you made it it looks kinda like a manmade pool or something instead of a pond. If you dont know what I mean, you should look at some DP tiles. I mean its square shape but the border isn't exactly perfect on it. I hope you know what I mean, and I hope I'm not confusing anyone. :P

I think you improved a lot since you first posted.
I like the mountains very much, and so I do the PC and the Mart.
Good luck with this!

A tip: Make the trees wider, so there won't be any "space" between them when they are arranged.
I'm glad that you think I have improved a lot. I will probably widen out the tree because like you said it's to much space in between them. (I know it will look weird in-game so I will fix it)

I'll work on making the waters edge more jagged to.

I still don't know what to make next.:shocked: Thank you everyone for your support.

Window openings all over the roof, heh. :p

Im not that good at describing stuff.. I could make a quick edit to them, to show what I mean.



More crits:

Your tiles seem fitting for the D/P style, yet they need some anti-aliasing on the darker lines that stand out, or perhaps some smoothing.

The grass seems ok, except the flowers. Try to make them stand out more, instead of having them as scattered pixels.

Stones are pillowshaded, but they don't look that bad. Some texturing may work here.

Rounded windows on the green building are jagged. These need anti-aliasing as well.

I'll keep working on them...yes i notice that with the windows to I'll try to fix it. I'm not really that good with flowers but ill try. By stones you mean the mountain tiles right? I had to use a tutorial to make those(not my strongest point). I'll keep working on these tiles before I add more thanks. Oh here are the new lake tiles.



what do ya think? I'm gonna work on the trees next.

Better, but maybe make the bottom corner tile borders more outward like the upper tiles are. After that, I think It'll be perfect. And I hope I'm not pestering you too much with this. xD

The water looks WAY BETTER now. Good job on the new flowers too. Your coming along very nicely. Make sure to keep adding stuff to it. For example, different paths maybe? You have a nice dirt tileset but maybe make like a beach version and city version?
Thanks never thought about those tiles. :P Any way I'm posting because I just added them :) (they didn't turn out like i wanted them so I'll be updating them) I probably won't be on this weekend so just hold tight till next week.
