MODERN RESOURCE HELP.

I need an urban-themed pack for RPG Maker VX Ace. For that, I need marked roads, something like a highway, and cars.

I need modern interior, something that wouldn't be out of place in a hotel. I also need a nice soundtrack that would set the atmosphere of mystery or horror. And preferably some cracked windows, doors, fallen trees etc.

I also need modern-style titles, preferably something dark or gloomy.

I'm new to RPG Maker, so help would be greatly appreciated.

Also: How do I clump my tiles together in a tileset? I made my own tiles for a road, but I haven't figured out how to clump them together in one set. I downloaded gimp today, and I have MS Paint, so any advice on this would also be very helpful.

This is a VX Ace tileset template. The squares are a tile. Once you understand how tiles work, it's easy to make your own. What I would do (in fact, this IS what I do), is download some of the games that are on RMN and add their chipsets to your RTP library. You'll find that you can usually make your own customized tileset by mixing and matching items you need from set to set.

In the case of marked streets, you may have to do your own artwork. I have a nice City tileset with asphalt, traffic lights and electric poles but it's for rm2k3. As for the spooky music, I would try MIDI sites. If you want an original score, we might be able to make an arrangement.
There is a modern tileset you can purchase in the shop. It's decently priced, comes with what you're looking for and is made for Ace.

That one is pretty good, but it's a little empty in my opinion. There's also a sci-fi set available for purchase that's a little more filled out, and it isn't really so much sci-fi as it is high-tech. It includes some cars and objects as well.

There is also a RPG Maker DS+ pack that has modern and sci-fi tiles, as well as characters, faces, objects, and bust shots, but they aren't in the RTP style.

As for the music, there is a modern music pack available for purchase from RPG Maker Web. I don't know if it's in the shop here yet or not.

Also, in the VX Ace character generator, there are a few modern school uniforms, suits, clothes, and what appears to be a hooded sweatshirt for some of the outfits. Almost as if they foresaw the need when they made the generator.

Cracked windows and any minor aesthetic changes like that are as simple as opening up the tileset in GIMP, and drawing some cracks or changing some shading around. Just make sure not to overwrite the original tileset. Weather effects and screen tints can make a gloomy atmosphere as well, and are both simple things that you can do through events without any scripting.

When I asked for modern tilesets for a game, I got referred to this thread. There's a decent number of options to be had through there. Though, I must confess that I eventually settled on the Modern Resource Pack that's available in the shop.

For music, well, there's always the RMN Music Pack!
