//Map of the Week\\ - Vote for it here.

[The Abyss]

I vote for Lucario 9 because the tiles are excellent and the shape is so...natural.

 

[zel 2.0]

As always, first the ones I didnt pick:

Xray's map: Looks like a first town, apparently. The main problem here is: if it is the first town and you already have a house without a door... :\
Dont have any bigger complains about the map. At least I like that distribution of trees (left and bottom borders), but I'll pay more attention to non first town maps, they require a bit more of work.

cooley's map: What I liked about the map is the size, but, personally I think that trees in the middle of that gray road thing or whatever it is dont combine, at all. In fact, I really dislike that gray path thing. I'm also still asking myself if it looks well to have houses in that horizontally aligned way.
Maybe it was a bad choice in some tiles, just my opinion.

Pichu-kun's map: As far as I know flowers dont grow in cement. It's a quite small town map, so probably it's another first town map.
I'm against that use of the fences behind EACH house. Why would I not be able to walk behind the houses?
Other than that, the palettes were nice, as the pick of two different house styles for the same town.

Austinia's map: Not like it was too planned (more like it was just stuff placed around), but perhaps that's what makes the map look more natural. Maybe it'd be better to have one or two additional tiles in the map (small rocks would definitely fit), it's just "too green" in my opinion.

And the one I pick as my vote is...

Lucario9's map: Dont like the border trees (somewhat original, but still dont like). I think a bench in the middle of the road is also original (although I dont think it's too "realistic"). The map may have been more complicated but it's ok if it is one of the first routes.
I'm voting for this one since I like how the different levels were used, and because he used many different tiles and the map doesnt look too "overloaded".

[Shadows]

I vote for ~Fire's map because it seems like ~Fire took a long time to make it, and it looks great.

 

[Disturbed]

I'm voting for Wichu's map, because the palettes are simply amazing, it looks like alot of hard work was done, and overall, the tiles fit the environment very well.

 

[Hiche..]

Wichu's map. Great tiles used, and the shape of the map is great. I like the placement of houses. It seems he put a lot of work in it.

 

[Heart's Soul]

~Fire gets my vote, because he put a lot of time in it, and it's very hard to make such a map. Wichu is really close, but not as good.

 

[TB Pro]

Hmm...I wonder if Mike forgot about this thread? P.S. I vote for Wichu's Map. Reason(s): Great tiles. Placement of trees was great. I just loved this map.

 

[Satoshi Sugimori]

Thank you ¿TB Pro™! ^^

Everyone, you have 2 days to vote, before voting is closed, sorry. :/

 

[Hiche..]

I vote for Disturbed's map. It has some great tiles, and the shape is fantastic. Also, the palettes are great.
I like the placements of the houses, and trees.

 

[Neti]

I vote for Satoushis Map, because of the reasons i already mentioned on the map rating thread:
The map itsself als well as the tiles used is just brilliant.
it has a nice structure and shape, its variedand the placement of stuff is genius.
also the tiles have been inserted very professionally.
but you could have linked the betetr version of the map, the link goes to the old one which has minor mistakes reagrding the stairs, pokecenter and mart

 

[Satoshi Sugimori]

Thanks Neti ^^
here's a link to the revisioned one Satoshi Sugimori's map revision please edit ;)

 

[TB Pro]

My Vote: Disturbed's Map

Reason(s): The map shape is good. He placed the trees perfectly. The path is great. He used the space up wisely.

 

[Tyrantrum]

I will get the new maps posted soon. ;P

Okay, I've added them.
Keep on voting~

 

[Disturbed]

My vote goes to the dude with the funny hard to remember name. Haelfafa or something?

For a newbie mapper, this is a fantastic map. The palettes are wonderful, and the map itself is gorgeous.

 

[Wichu]

Why did no-one tell me I was entered in this? I shouldn't have won; my map wasn't even eligible (I think).
Why? It's made in RPG Maker XP, a program nothing to do with hacking. In short, it's not from a hack. Which means you should give the prize to ~Fire, not me.
If you're thinking "why did I post it here?", then it's because I saw some others posting RMXP maps. I stopped because I guess the others at Game Dev didn't like it :S Sorry for the confusion!

Oh, and I have improved the tiles drastically since I posted here; a screen with them can be found in my thread :P

 

[Neti]

My vote goes for haefeles Map
Reason: Even though hes so new to this forum, his map is way better than most maps i see on the map rating thread
the colors are really bright, what i like (most people use very dark or gray palettes, thats not so cool :D)
