CloseAbout the ships being bland: it wouldn't make much sense if the whole deck of the ship was littered with barrels/crates/buckets when the focus here is keeping it maneuverable while in the heat of combat. Not to mention, the RTP really doesn't have that much you could throw onto a ship to make it not "RTP ship" (especially from this angle). Trust me, I'd love to add more to this, but I had to MS-Paint those sails on because God only knows why there's no decorations for airships in something like RPG Maker where that's kind of a staple of the genre. I guess I could add town building roofs to the ship chipset? That'd really spruce this map up, eh?
In the meantime, you'll just have to use your imagination for how the ship can control its altitude; the rest is left to the wind.
But anyway

(Also, I am now totes gonna do a fair with a bell and a blonde girl that you run into in a game just for the funsies.)
see with your tongue in cheek it's an homage
with your mapping unimaginative and uninspired enough to read as 'homage' it's just mediocrity

There's SO MUCH MORE you can do to get rid of "blandness" than to clutter the deck with random shit tiles. Expand creatively!! Push the limits of what you're DOING with mapping beyond random clutter!!
Experiment with editing the RTP banner to make a cool ~evil kingdom~ flag and drape some of them over the decks of the ship. Shoop that plain white ship sail to be EVILBLOODRED. Add some smoke events that 'walk' in place and have the bad guys spewing smog from their ships. I'll help you out with providing some sprite edits if you want.

I'm sorry, but all of that sounds awful and tryhard.

Is the RPG Maker 2003 airship set just plain worse than the 2000 one? I made an airship back in 2002 with the 2000 chipset and it looked way more detailed.

It is a thousand times more interesting than a straight up RTP watership being Move Picture commanded through the air. I see your dedication to creative bankruptcy is far worse than an unpleasant reaction to criticism and I bid you good day and good career sir

Now now, that's a bit harsh. Everyone has limits on the time and such that they can spend on their projects, and this is a hobby for most of us. Also, this may just be a single ship to be used once for a single cut-scene. Spending hours on it when it's not going to be seen for more than half a minute may not be feasible in his situation.
There's nothing wrong with your critique, and it's fine and good to give it, but Corfaisus has all rights to ignore it if he likes.

The thing is, very little of that is used correctly.

Man, gurl, I wrote da book!
How about you play the game before you call me creatively "bankrupt" on the grounds of a single picture? Mmk, bb? Or maybe I could bury you under a mountain of outline documents so that you don't mistake this game as babby's first RTP adventure #23984?

Pic of the moment.
I'd be front-page buzzing if even half of these comments made their way onto the game page. Oh well.
then what's the point of posting
edit: this was meant to be directly under unity's post. anyway let me ramble a bit more <3
hey corf i saw an image on r/ffxiv this morning about a bard who was claiming that the final boss of the current endestendgame raid was "a joke" and that he could pump out 1000 dps per second (sic), when a good truthful bard maybe hits like a little over 500 in perfect conditions. he also claimed that using a certain party-wide buff hurt his dps when it most certainly does not (and he would know this by just reading the tooltip, which his rational teammates were asking him to do). he reminds me of you, sinking deep into the mires of your ego, showing off screenshots of maps that yeah, looks like you did put some effort in, gj have a star! and also putting up one of my less impressive screenshots (why? no, i'm not a fantastic mapper and never have claimed to be). cool cool.
bizarremonkey: plagiarism can include using the idea of something without giving any credit to whoever used that idea originally. corf has, i believe (correct me if i'm wrong) stated that it's not meant to be an homage, parody or any other sort of fair use.
should anybody actually care? lol probably not. but if we're all gonna babble at each other we might as well use some strong words
also make a cool banner for your ships corf, that'd look awesome

He didn't ignore it, he attacked the very nature of my suggestion as 'awful' and 'tryhard.' Not "unreasonably time-consuming" for him, but "tryhard."
A person who puts a large amount of effort into achieving a certain image, or counter-image, to the point where it is obviously contrived. Rather than achieving an image through genuine personality, the try-hard consciously attempts to fit a certain style through deliberate imitation, forced style, or scripted behavior.
Let's not nanny him, rub his back and "there there" him as though he graciously chose to decline my input
author=Corfaisus
The thing is, pretty much none of that is used correctly.
Fair enough, I was a teenager testing the waters of RPG Maker when I made it.
LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

If you want some decorations that make more sense than barrels, I would put some wooden posts and ropes on the deck of the ship. Those are very shippy things to have. They are also things that are in the RTP I think, just not in that tileset. Maybe take the poles sticking out the sides of the cross-shaped nose of the ship and turn them ninety degrees and combine them with the rope tile, to make a pole with a rope wrapped around the base of it, if you are feeling energetic.

Very well, let's not nanny him. I'll be frank. His reaction to criticism and, in fact, a lot of his posts in this forum in the whole come off as very unpleasant and petty. He should seriously not post here if he can't be bothered to even acknowledge feedback without insulting those offering it.
I don't think, however, that you need to feel personally insulted because someone called your opinions 'awful' and 'tryhard' by a random guy on an internet forum. Nor do I think that insulting him back makes you the better person.

I agree. Sorry bout it.
Corf you have other maps that don't look bad. I actually really like that castle/dock screenshot you posted. You HAVE the experience to do evilguy banners or something without making it look tryhard, let your creative spirit fly~
versalia your light effects are terrible they're plagiarizing ara fell. your pun makes me want to cry. you're mixing like three resolutions/levels of detail

Did somebody say plagiarism?
I have no idea if this is actually a really memorable, iconic scene or just something a lot of us recognize because we're old-school RPG fanatics.
Also I just found out that FF4 came out 24 years ago holy hell
