Other Topics and the Prerelease / Re: Attempted Recreation of "Alpha" Screenshots
« Last post by Reld on Yesterday at 07:29:19 pm »I tried doing another one. This one is mostly just a mix of the 1000AD house tiles with the less-broken 2300AD tiles from the last one.
I did have to steal a few tiles from the 600AD house tiles, like the red soup and the pitcher on the large table. There are a few new things, like the larger picture frames and the little wrenches on the floor. Some things were modified, like making the mouths of the pots below the big window a little smaller, and reducing the thickness of the side trim on the wood columns between the windows.
I didn't do much to the character sprites. It's especially noticeable for Crono whose stance is totally wrong. I did give Marle pink hair though.
Looking at it again now I can see a few things I missed, like a groove around the edges of the small table that I think should be removed, but overall I'm pretty happy with it.
I did notice something kind of strange about the layer 3 tiles for the light coming through the big window.
In the prerelease ROM there are little lit up bits for the light hitting the curtains, but they're placed a few tiles too high. You can see them as little spikes protruding into the black (dark brown) empty part around the edges of the map. Instead of fixing them for the final game they seem to have just removed them completely. Probably not news around these parts, but it was new to me. For this mockup I just moved them down to where they should be.
EDIT: I guess it's not really the light hitting the curtains. It's more like light hitting the inner walls of the window alcove or whatever you call it.

Also, Stingray, do you have anything for the Zeal floating isles, like a variant of the model without the tunnels or holes cut in them? I want to build more suitable models for the various buildings, etc.
No, I took a model from minecraft and recreated it from that. So that is all I have for the floating islands.
