Comment: This make is better than the other one. I havn't changed the tileset's on my Hack, so don't say it's like the game, I havn't changed the tileset's yet. It is too big to fit on one picture.
The tiles don't matter, most of the time I prefer the nintendo tiles.

Better but it's still got different variations of water tile which don't look right and it's empty. 4.5/10

Rate please, and criticism if you want =)

It may look a bit distorted, but thats because I had to combine two pictures, because it was too big.
Thanks


It's square and it doesn't look very good. 2/10, please read a mapping tutorial or observe other maps.

(@ Above, 'read mapping tutorials / look at maps' is pretty pathetic help)

@ Kalsard:

The waterfall should end at the bottom of the mountain, 5 tiles above where it does now. The mountains also end suddenly (Top left) and are very straight - try making the shape more varied with areas jutting out so the edges are boring.

The house placement is O.K. however there are no paths! A path from the houses to the left would make the route up the mountains a lot less boring.

Allow the vegetation grow away from the borders, put trees along the above path in random places and this will make it look a lot more natural. Also, the wild turbines should probably all be together rather than scattered around.

Overall I would give 3/10, I like the idea but not the execution.

To much errors. Waterfall isn't good. It should go like this:

Umm..it's supposed to look like that :P

But I think the map seems good. But what would make it better is if it had more bordering...because I would feel like I would fall off the map O_O"

Rating: 8/10

Even though it's a garbage map (not meant literally, but since the tiles are everywhere...)
It still needs to be secure ;)

Ok, the map has changed quite a bit, for the better and the worse.

The trees in the first map (The big cluster around the bottom of the mountain) was good, the extra random trees should have been additional.
The rocks around the bottom of the river look good.

You could improve the shape of the path, as at the moment it is fairly straight and boring, and break away from exact rows of trees by adding extra's to some columns and not others, etc, to vary the shape of the edge of the map.

There are still errors at the west of the mountains as they just end suddenly.

As Ctep pointed out the small trees and bushes do not match the pallette and are a bit of an eyesore.

Also I think the bridges could do with being one tile narrower?

Still 3/10 from me I'm afraid.

Wow, I have never seen a naturally mapped GBC generation map. I think it's really creative and it came out very nicely. One thing I noticed right away is the chance of border errors. Where the lower mountain touches the border there could be errors. The land bridge is a little awkward because the player won't walk down the middle there, he/she will walk on the edge and I don't think that will look right. The water and mountain placement is just great. Nothing to complain about there. The ledges are nicely done as well.

9/10

@DarkPrince304

First map:
Still too square and un-natural looking.
You are not using the mountain tiles correctly, and there is a tile error on the fence under Oak's lab.
So I'm afraid 4/10 :\
And, why make it so big?
To make the gameplay a bit longer?
Or to use more space?
Try making the map smaller.

Second map:
I actually like this one, except for the bottom part, which is very square.
Try avoiding sqareness. Also, the path is pretty much holding the trees. Leave some space at times.
5/10 for pure squareness and un-natural looking
Also, please do include something between bushes and trees just above the sandy area.
Good luck with your future mapping, and remember: There is always room for improvement.
Also remember this: DJG is the best! It's not a fact, it's logic. XD

Rating: 3/10
Reason: The map is too open and it does not look like the original New Bark Town.
Improvements: Try analysing the original new Bark Town as you map it, and be precise with every minor detail.

there is a PC there because we need one,
and if you look at shiny gold the maps are similar.

also there is such thing as new and different
Also, I think Samike360 said it was a remake of New Bark Town, anime style.

It looks...terrible. There are path errors near the Pokemon Center. It's going to have border problems. And, even in the anime, there wasn't nearly that many rocks. More trees are required, to make it look even at the slightest level of acceptable. You also shouldn't use more than one path per map, unless there is a change in terrain. (Such as grassy to mountainous.) Your flowers are also meh. Too many and too spread out. You need to remove some, and place the remainder closer together.

I think that should do it. :\ I'll give you a 3/10.
