    Hello there.

    I've been working on the dialogues and plot on a pokemon rom hack ( which will be released soon ). I'm already done with it and will be moving on to map making. Do you guys have any tips for me ? It is because I'm still a noobie with it comes to rom hacking.
     
    I'm not particularly familiar with Pokemon map design. But I see a lot of forest maps and the general trend is to make everything seem as natural as possible to compensate for the limited tiles in the game. As for towns I suppose be wary of height errors? A lot of vanilla ruby maps i'm looking at have mountains on mountains, so be wary when you elevate.

    hope I helped ahaha
     
    Thanks for the advice Ghaststation.

    I will posting for screenies later this week :)
