I just looked at the mapping tutorial... And you DID end up taking step-by-step screenshots ^^

I did get around to it, yes ^^
But I was making the map anyways, so I decided to screenie my steps >.>

Well, ain't that scientificalogical? It's perfect!

Hah, you're humugkneeus words confuzzulated me.

You should post a map though.

I couldn't map to save my life

But it's so much easier in RMVX. Try following my tutorial then, and post a map of that. Please ^o^

Rather blocky, but I like it.

You should put doors on all of them. Otherwise it makes them look childish and bad. Perhaps you were thinking that the houses are facing in different directions? If that's just a town, houses would generally be in a row... And all facing the same direction, with the possible exception of some stores in a shopping plaza or something.

The open doors are the houses you can go into. If you check the default Project1 on VX they've done the houses like that aswell.

Right, but we're smarter than them. I mean, if there aren't any doors on some houses, it just looks bad.

The town map has a very annoying thing... All the houses are cut into the walls and ground. The outline of the ground is around the house, and makes it look wierd.

Looks worse than Pokemon

Something else i noticed. The lame ass eventing doesn't even allow you to change the colors or opacity of the damn graphics >.<
No fogs either...

Mapping is alot different in Vx i guess. I have to say though, even with the overworld style so reminiscent of old final fantasy and dragon quest games, there are alot of cons to this thing.

Far too many in my opinion, i gave this program my best shot and maps just suck big time. Mapping is the only thing i enjoy about RPGMaker if im honest so im going back to XP.

XP is the way to go. The graphics in my opinion just sucks the only thing I wish RMXP had that this one has is that this one can use multiple tilesets at once.
