Tile Insertion For AdvanceMap For Dummies

Is the provided version of THA working for anyone else? Mine keeps outputting my palettes incorrectly and I'm unable to use the .dib files it provides, and I'm not really sure why or how to fix it.
 
Might be a stupid question but I don't know how i can add multiple buildings to my tileset. So i can add a building to my tileset in paint no problem but I don't have enough room to add another. Am I overlooking something here?

Can anyone help with this?
 
As in there's no room left in the exported 128x192 sheet?

Yes, I can only add one bulding because they take a lot of space in the exported 128x192 sheet. Yet, i see people have multiple differentbuildings in their map. Thx for replying.
 
Followed all the steps but I'm confused about the step where you talk about Show Palette Editor. Also when I finish I get a dialog box for tileset picture and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do
 
Hi, I was just wondering. It this may sound dumb but, let's say I want to use a whole new tileset and color palette to the trees, grass, flowers. Pretty much everything outside. What do you suggest I do? I am a bit confused because tutorials always show what to do for 1 or 2 things. Not a whole tileset.

So what I usually do is I like to find all the tiles I want to use for a tileset. Then I'll separate them into groups. So since you can use Palettes 6-12 for new Tileset 1 tilesets, that gives you 7 palettes to work with. So I'll separate them into similar colors (i.e. I'll group a tree I want in with a bush from a different image and maybe a green car or something). Then go into irfanView and reduce the color to 16 colors, including the transparency color. Then just insert it via the tutorial. If you used this palette and inserted it as Pal6, then you just change it to Pal7 and load the new palette for a different color (i.e. your red color group) and then save the Tileset image and then copy over your new graphics.

Does that help at all?
 
OK, so I'm having trouble importing my tileset. Every time I import it, It's always a solid color. what am I doing wrong?
 
I'm having trouble trying to load the tileset back into Advanced-Map. The water looks fine in paint, but when I load it into my tileset, it's just one single blue color. Could anyone explain what I'm doing wrong?
 
I followed everything in the tutorial but when I load the tileset and apply the palette, the building just shows as a silhouette of the building. I am quite confused as I have followed this tutorial before and it has worked, I have also tried other tiles as well but I haven't managed to insert them either as they do the same thing as I just mentioned.
