I don't see any way of easily implementing overhanging tiles (the "upper level" in RM*). Is there a way that I am just not seeing? Otherwise, it's looking very easy to use.
Although many people are used to using inherent tile obstructions, using separate obstructions is much better for more interesting and less blocky mapping (I can assure everyone who is reading and wondering). Is there any way to set multi-level obstructions? For instance: cliff edges that run on to movable areas? Are obstruction tiles all-way or can they be more detailed?
edit: What I didn't point out is that I am excited about work being done on this!

post=101869post=101698Woahh forgot to reply to this! Thanks for the tips! I will make an effort to fix up those cliffs and other things. I just don't want to spend too much time on this because I still have a game to make yaknow?
Kaempfer's Advice
This is totally understandable, but don't forget you'll be able to use the cliffs elsewhere (all over elsewhere) with only a few minor tweaks along the edges. One thing I like to do is occasional give updates that take up the exact same area on the tileset a crack: that way, you don't have to redo any maps, you just upload and watch it work together.
@Lennon: The canopy of the tree does not match the perspective of the cliffs. At least, it looks like it supposed to be broad and flat (like a big mushroom) but ends up looking like a sidelong oval, instead.
@MOG: I do like that new mockup by whoever it was that did it, although I would suggest against using a background if possible (unless you're using a different map as the menu. There's nothing wrong with doing that, but if you're going to pictures, we should see the characters behind! At least make it transparent. In fact, it'd probably work best if you made a transparent background. I don't really mind the system set, to be honest. I'd use it over a simple FF6 rip. It is a different game, after all!

Have fun repositioning all the picture events, MOG!
If it's a lot of work, I'd just leave it like it is. It looks good, and unless you have billions of useless recipes, I'm sure two per page won't be so bad. You might want to make switching pages easy, though (perhaps reassign Right-Left?). It looks good! I wouldn't bother with a background.

Named after Dirk Pitt who starred in those famous pieces of classic American literature. Please learn facts rockman!!
Also holy shit those police are amazing. I would like to have gone just to hold up signs that said "Riot Gear looks badass!". Why are there never pro-police rallies?

post your picture
Better quote the image directly above your post otherwise who knows what you could be talking about!
Also Relyt you are doing it wrong, what you are doing is known as "standing".

Cliff Spriting Help
It's the idea that's flawed, though, not the presentation. In some cases adding that extra colour helps, but here, like I said, it confuses the lightsource.
The Biggest Shocker: I am leaving (for real)
The best game of AoE2 I ever played consisted of us both teching up and then using the central area as a massive battlefield. Despite my opponents cheap ass usage of hand cannoneers, I still won by completely devastating him by flanking him with heavy cavalry in the final hours. EAT IT.
Also guys I don't want to make my own topic, but I am leaving for about eight hours. I'll be asleep so I won't have access to the internet. See you soon guys, it's been great.
