Rate time for me now plz?
Pretty nice. It's a good size, everything is well spaced, and the mountainsides look fantastic. I've always liked towns on sloping ground. It would be visually appealing if not for the tile errors. (Excuse me if it's already been said.) Waterfalls should have two horizontal layers of tiles - look at the original R/S/E maps. If the second layer is missing, it doesn't look much like a waterfall. Also, the 'river' water looks very strange next to the 'ocean' water. Use the same dark blue tiles for the river that you do for the ocean - I'm pretty sure R/S/E does the same thing. Your grassy paths are pretty well done, but I think they would look better shorter and placed more spontaneously. The round bushes on the mountain slopes bug me, personally, because well-clipped bushes don't belong in the wild.

8/10

I love the map, and you seemed to have done well with the pallette/tileset.

The rating *would* be higher but the Houses look a bit messed up. The line between the roof tiles looks weird, and the houses don't look deep enough (front to back) they could probably do with another layer.

I wanted to experiment with a bridge over a canyon with trees under it. I think it worked out well. If you look closely at the bridge, there is a block edit error that I'm currently working on fixing. So don't mark me down for it. ^_^
Also, the bridge is being repaired when you first come through, so you must go through the cave.

If the error you're talking about is the bridge-over-mountain error, then don't worry about it. It is possible to fix it but even in the original games, they made the same "mistake". I figure if they do it that way in the real games, then it's technically correct.
Well, for a canyon-type map, you sure are lacking some rocks. You've made good use of the 2x2 rocks but I couldn't find a single 1x1 rock. Grass placement is simply wonderful, though. The far east patch may be just a tad to big for my tastes but it's passable. I mean, the player is pretty much guaranteed to encounter a wild pokémon with a patch of that size. Unless, of course, that was what you were aiming for.
Some tile errors:
- Just west of the eastern cave entrance, the mountain corner tile has a grass bottom layer (which is kind of unavoidable)
- If you start at the western end of the bridge, step one tile west and then go up, you'll run into an error where you used a "grass mountain" tile
- Dang. I couldn't even find three ;)

Now I have to get back to my own mountainous route.

@Magneto 4/10

Since Ray didn't really explain how to fix what he thought was bad:

Include more lone trees (or double trees) but try to keep the placement random rather than one on each side alternately.

Make the paths narrowers and give them some twists and turns to make them look less like glorified carpets.

Also, edit the tree columns so some of them have an extra tree, so that it looks less perfect.

You deserve a rating but you aren't imo a good mapper :/ Your maps are square... In the map of dawn town you recognize the mountains of viridian city... For a perfect rating for square maps ask Ray Maverick xD Boldur Shrine= 5/10 Haunted Forest= 4,5/10 Dawn Town: 3/10... I know it must be hard to get skipped 3 times in a row... Check out some mapping-tuts ;)

notbob- 2/10

Too many areas where there are lots of flowers, make the placement more random rather than pattern.

Not enough trees, too much grass.

The path isn't too bad, but it could do with being less uniform and square-ish.

Whats with the mountains? It seems pointless and something you thought of last minute to fill some place, take them out.

And Ditto on the patterned clearings ;)

you want more rating?
what about a 10/10 ?
I think its perfect, i couldnt have done it better
actually i think iwouldnt even manage to make it that good :p
the shapes are natural, its not too easy and not too complex
the tiles and palettes match perfectly
i think there are a few really minor tile errors and some people might not like how the rocks are placed at the river ( i mean that you dont see all the rocks from the angle that the player has)
also the tree group in the bottom part of the map looks slightly unnatural
but still its one of the best maps ive seen so far, thats why it deserves a 10/10
