[The Abyss]

Here's my first ever map!
Thanks to Zeikku for the Rombase.

Someone? Please? I want to know how I did...

How is this?

@-DarK-: 5.5/10
Your map is too square, have too many empty spots, weird placed trees
and the road is strange.
But your use of different tiles and House placement
is good.
Fix those errors I gave you and you'll have at least an 8/10 from me ;)

@XDrules: 7.5/10
It's a nice small map... But a little boring.
I don't know what it is, but the map don't
seem too great to me...

And now it's me

I think this is the best Twinleaf Town, I have seen. The tiles are nice, so as the grass.
Rating: 8.5/10

Well...Get rid of some grass, make a path and put some trees on the way...I'll give a 7.5/10

I edited the map a bit... How's it now?

6.8/10
It's much better than before,
but remove those "1 tile wide roads"
And remove the hedge at the right (Anyway WTF is a Hedge doing way out in the trees?)
And above the PC, put only "big trees" revome the small ones.

And don't use grass in a city unless it's enclosed by a fence or someth'n,
but as I said, much better alredy.

It's pretty good, though the tall grass doesn't match up the oasis. I like the placement of rocks, cactuses, sand, everything.
So I give you:
8.7 out of 10

And now I need to post my map:

Game: Pokemon Turquoise
Base rom: Firered English (BPRE)
Name: Goldenleaf Town

Comments: You can't enter the forest until you beat the Gym Leader. The path is supposedly made of gold. The house with a sign nearby is the"Tips 'n' Tricks" house.

Not a fan of the palettes, but I like the simplicity. Nice map overall, I can't say anything I don't like about it besides the overuse of fences.
9/10



Now for my new map.
Made it in a few minutes out of boredom. It isn't going to be in a hack or anything, so anyone can have this if they want it.

Yes, the palettes are similar to those of Liquid Ocean (said by dshayabusa) but I did not rip them from LO, I simply played around with the palettes until I found ones that I liked.

King Kris, nothing to say really. Sorry to burst your bubble, but you can't really map. That isn't mapping, it's more like putting tiles together. 0/10 for everything except the route which gets 1/10. Check out maps by dshayabusa, Disturbed, Neti, myself, or even just the maps in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald to get an idea of good maps.

@KING KRIS:
The trees aren't finished on the third map.

Overall: 1/10

The map is very well done. I love its shape, and the placement of trees is neat.
Nice going with the bridge shading part.

I haven't done a normal cave since ... early august?

I don't want to show the other part because of spoilers for my hack, Distant!

EDIT: Now mapping faster than you guys are rating!

@Disturbed.
Second Map.
The Cave entrance/exit at the edge of the map to the right doesn't really match the rest, partly because it's the only one there.
And that mini platform off of the mountain, It's it a bit useless?
(My Rating/Nub Rating) 8.5/10

2 things here.
1. A little plain, and there is like one odd tree there, it does match, but not too well (IMO). No New tiles, but I like the old ones, so I see no tile errors therefore I give it....8.5/10

I posted this on the last page. I suppose it was overlooked.

I removed the pokeball in the corner and shortened the dirt road back one square in front of the top left house.

Please rate it. Thank you.

Rating: 3.2/10
Errors: Too empty, square, tile errors, and the tree shades aren't right at some points.
Suggestions: Try not to make it so empty, or square..and look for tile errors too. Also, if you want to use the tree shadows, you have to use them right, or don't use them next time.
