Hey Legion, here's something I whipped up quickly. Whether you use it or not is up to you but I needed one as well, so I figured, why not?
Here:


Just paste it over the default snow tile in A2. Whoever thought it was a great idea to have snow on sand needs their brains checked...

Hmm...lemme give that a shot! Thanks, Liberty!

Edit:
That does not seem to have fixed the problem. : (

Now it's snow on the inside, grass on the middle and sand on the outside, and it looks even worse. It is possible that I somehow managed to screw up pasting it, although that would be quite a feat.

Stupid VX autotiles.
When placing the mountain tiles make a small mock mountain area with grass all around then 'Shift-copy' and 'Shift-paste' over the existing mountains. That way the grass line is gone under the mountains. In the areas of just grass, shift-place the grass. It'll match up with the edges. A bit fiddly, yes, but it looks good when done.


Or you could use this one, but it'd have to take the place of the mountain/forest tiles of the grass. Or you could use a parallax for that part...

EDIT: It doesn't show up because it's white on a transparent background...On a white page. :P
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.

Well, I think you need to use Liberty's tile where the snow borders the grass, and the normal snow tile where the snow borders the ocean. And then to actually get the right parts of the borders in the right places, you'll have to draw the shapes you want somewhere else, and then shift-right-click to copy and shift-left-click to paste.

Are the mountains on the upper layer or the lower layer? If they're on the lower layer this will get ugly fast.

Slightly off-topic but after looking at an Alter Aila screenshot, there was that guy with red glasses, blonde/orange hair and a green trenchcoat. One character in my game bears strong resemblance to... dunno what was his name, Yellow or Green?
Comparison:

Green or Yellow or whoever he is from Alter A.I.L.A


A random character from my game that will be never finished thanks to my laziness.

Oh ffuu, do I need to redo the sprite now?
Probably while making the sprite, I subconsciously remembered Green or then, it's just a pure coincidence.
Green is a girl. I think that one is Yellow.

They don't look all that similar to me, niteowl.
@Nightowl: I dont think you need to redue the sprite simiply because they look similar. I think youre good.

Take a look at these gorgeous maps!(^_^)


+PLEASE HELP ME PEOPLE!!!
most of you by now have HD monitors and I've observed that HD monitors cannot display my games well for some reason.
Tell me what do you see.
What is the color of the hair of the woman(In her face sprite)+What is the color of the man's rain coat.

I might try to fix it for you.
@NOACCEPTANCE: Black and ... black? I can kinda see some lines in the girls hair if I squint a bit. Is there no way to convince you to lose the bright red hud? It clashes with the blue symbol a lot. It also probably doesn't do any good for making the colours of your facesets pop out more.
I will say I like the maps, though. They aren't bad. And you've toned down the battle screen enough to see what's going on, though the number text is a little hard to read, despite it being so large.

It's much more than just color, you have contrast, and mismatching issues, as well as a bit of cluster fucking going on in the ui.

If you look closely, their clothing almost same but if nobody minds the similarity then okay.

@NOACCEPTANCE772 Well, those maps look better and the sprites fit a little better now too.
Why is the third party member a suitcase in that battle screenshot though?
Why shouldn't it be a suitcase? is a better question.

*suitcase casts boltaga*
I just assumed it was a robot that transformed into a suitcase. Kinda like a 'tamer' version of Transformers.

He's in a suitcase cuz he's their hostage and he's the only one who can tell them how to get out of the E.N.S.D continent(A whole group of four continents renamed to have names in digits*like 4566,7991 etc.*)so they have to keep him protected + he's a total pussy so he can't fight at all+he has no weapons+I'm sorry for what I said to you before Nightowl,now I know what's wrong with my graphics and sprites.

Looks really good, love the last one. The hud is a bit violent though and too big, imo.
