Another window rip request! It is one window rip from the newest remake of Final Fantasy IV for the PSP labeled "Final Fantasy IV: The complete Collection". This window skin is for VX, but I'm sure if someone wanted it for XP I could cook one up for ya really quick.

=====================

The only thing I cannot put onto is the glove. Its too large to place on the file. But I'm sure the link below can do that for the windowskin. They were suppose to go in the 64x64 box to the right top, but they would not fit so I left it blank. As for the patterns, they were supposed to go to the bottom left, but this game has loads of patterns, I can try to rip them as well, but it all depends on what color it should be >.>

(FF Glove Script: http://www.rpgmakerv...howtopic=38856)

Here is one windowskin. I even did the rotating crystal...though there were too many frames to get the complete turning crystal. Sorry

Spoiler

Save it and label it "FFIV windowskin" without the quotations. Or, name it whatever you want. Now open your script editor and go to Window_Base and search up this line " self.windowskin = Cache.system("Window")" and then change "Window" to the name of the windowskin. Remember to place the Windowskin within the "System" folder.

If you don't like the lines (which were actually in the game xD) that appears under things you are highlighting and would like the glove to show instead (if the script works) then just open the image up in a graphics program and remove the line of the two blues which is located above the giant square of mass colors.

This is awesome! And welcome back!

[CrimsonInferno]

Glad you like it! :33

I'm gonna make different ones with different patterns as the new remake of FFIV has window patterns just like VX xD

And thank you very much! Good to be back

[joman195]

Also, good find with the glove script I have been looking for something like that.

[CrimsonInferno]

You're welcome

Update!

I'm making an edit to the cave water tile to be round. I hate that god-awful square water. Its not perfect (yet? lol), but here is what I have so far! :33

Spoiler

There's still some dark brown I can't figure out where on the autotile is so I can edit it, but I will keep trying xD

*If anyone has suggestions, I'm open to hear them! :33*

[CrimsonInferno]

Okay! I think I took care of the problem!

[rgangsta]

You're too awesome for this. The patience you must have to re-do this whole thing.

[CrimsonInferno]

Thanks, Rgangsta.

Patience is part of it, yes The rest is that I think its fun.

I think the bottom of the frames need editing. Too much brown...

[Tomo2000]

Hey Crimson. Wow there's been some progress made while I've been gone... How's that characterset of the red-haired guy with the red-cape coming along? That looks pretty amazing Keep it up Crimson

[CrimsonInferno]

So sorry this is late! I didn't know anyone posted in it.

He needs his side frames done, but I can easily do that. I wanted to press onto tilesets for the moment xD

[CrimsonInferno]

*This should really be moved xD*

I have a question guys.

You know my treehouse tileset? Do you think its weird that the houses on top would be that small but the inside be bigger? The reason I ask is because it seems really weird, as I just noticed.

I was thinking about alternatives to a treehouse. What about a hole in a tree that leaders to an underground village? Or how about a hole in a tree that leads up a large (large!) tree trunk to the upper levels of a tree? There would be linking bridges, houses, ladders etc etc. It would be sorta like in Star Wars? What do you guys think?

I could use all the suggestions and help that you can spare...

*Just started *not full size**



It doesn't look very good plain, but soon it will be flush!

OLD version; too small:

Holy crap! Did you make these? You're totes' worth hiring.

[Chief]

Uhhh... how did you make those? They look fricken sweet.

[CrimsonInferno]

@Kiriashi:
Yes, I made them.

What's "totes'"?

@Chief:
I used Photoshop CS5; but GIMP, Paint and older PS can do this as well.

And thanks guys! I only started last night, so I'm no master.

[Kiriashi]

Totes = totally. Excuse my silly mannerisms.

Seriously though, awesome work.

[Chief]

No, not what software, but how exactly did you make it? I find it quite intriguing, and useful.

[CrimsonInferno]

@Kiriashi
Oh, that makes sense xD

And thanks once more

@Chief
Oh, well within Photoshop I make a 1024x1024 image (bigger for me, because I like big, high quality maps) with white/black background at 72pi. Next, I go up to the Filters > Render > Clouds and then I go back to Filters > Render > Difference Clouds/Cloud Difference and then I press that until it makes a shape that I like. See the clouds make countries/islands/lands in whiter and the "sea" is in black. Once it generates a shape that I like, I make some layers, adjust levels, group the layers and some other stuff. I do it a jumbled way and would only confuse you on the later steps, so I'll just link you to a great tutorial by Saderan. It is amazingly simple and fun. I kinda wish I knew about it before I started lol

You need an account to download the file here: http://www.cartograp...mp;d=1262251614
Here is the thread: http://www.cartograp...0%93-a-tutorial

[Chief]

It appears as though the forums are messing up that link... This is odd. I am unable to go to those URL's. may I ask that you try putting them in tinyurl or making them not links?

[CrimsonInferno]

That is weird, it did messed up my links. That's never happened before.Okay, make an account here (clickable) and once you are logged in, click this link here and download the tutorial.

[Chief]

Its taking forever to get the activation email from them :/

Hey, they are no match for google.

I don't think he wants his stuff spread around like that, but oh well I suppose. Just don't spread the file around xD

EDIT:

Working on rivers now. My brother says they are too thick, but this isn't the type of map like on Google Maps where you can't see the rivers...

So I decided to search the internet on learning about latitude Biomes (?) etc etc and I came across this PDF tutorial, which I'm reading now.I want this world to be big, I know that, and snowy but I want it to be believable so I took to learning about this. Anyways, if its allowed, here is the first step is has me doing -- squeezing the land masses together like a puzzle! :3



I realize that you see complete cutoffs for the west, eastern and southern parts in this screenshot. I am building the rest of the world right now. But I will link to a general blog-form of what it should look like, if its needed which it most likely is.

*The red is where I forgot to push the together like the rest and made a quick edit. xD

And here is an update with vegetation and whatnot. I don't really like how this one came out though...

Anyways, I present Remake Girl!

Love the map Crimson The vegetation and mountains look amazing I wish I could do stuff like that... The character looks great, also, and the colouring is amazing Damn you make me intensely jealous... Ah well Im still into spriting So Im glad about that. Anything else new lately?

Edited by Tomo2000, 01 October 2011 - 08:12 AM.

[CrimsonInferno]

Thanks Tomo! :3 I'm only getting better 'cause the corny, but oh so true "practice makes perfect!" xD Why, yes there is! I'm working on my actual drawing skills after I stopped at like 12 >.>

So I'm working on the highlighting of the hair. The sun is above her, at least that's what RTP is I think. So I'm trying to base it around that.

Spoiler

Better...?

And an update for something else.

I'm learning about this program called Paint SAI Tool, which is pretty so far. Here is the most recent edit of something I've been making with my lame tablet (Genius Tablet).

*Naruto xD*

[Tomo2000]

<3 the Naruto head And I think I like the other version of that sprite better, since it has more noticable shading on the head. Keep up the great work Crimson
