Description
Well, I wouldn't usually submit a deviation that is so similar to another one, but I just thought this ended up looking so good that I had to submit it. After seeing Hydrargirium's night-time map ([link] ), I really wanted to make the night-time in XENOTIME look just as good. Here is the result. It actually took hours to get all of the different semi-transparencies and layers correct, far longer than I expected. But it was worth it, as it looks so much better than the PokΓ©mon Essentials default does.This is what every map will look like at night, so what do you think?

Wow! Did you follow a tutorial or something?Β

Nope. It was actually pretty simple to do. I just placed a block colour over the whole map and made it semi-transparent, then cut out pieces from it for the windows and lights, with varying degrees of transparency. The hardest part was getting the right shade of blue to make it look like night-time, it's harder than you'd think.Β

Ah, thank you! I guess mapping is really hard.

Oh wow, this looks pretty nice. Are you making these tiles? Really nice.

Thank you! It's a mix really. The buildings are pretty much 100% original, and the walls are heavily modified versions of a public tile. The trees and stuff are just public tiles as I'm really bad at that sort of thing. But literally everything is edited in some way to fit my style.Β
If you look at some of my newer deviations I'm moving into completely original works as I want to at some point make a job out of this. That's probably quite far off right now though.. xD

This is a very good way to learn this stuff. Working with tiles is always harder than it looks and you did a great job with this.

Mind if I take a crack at making a night time version of this map? I helped make the lighting effects for Hydrar's map so maybe I can do the same for this map if I have your permission.

Would it be usable in RMXP? If it would, then sure. I'd really appreciate it!

I don't know how fogs work for outdoor areas since all the fogs I use in Celestite are for indoor areas. However if they work the same and you like it I can post both the fog and the fog on the map together.

They do work the same. Yeah, that'd be good. Is there anything you want in return?

Perfect.
Nope I'm fine, I just enjoy making fogs over maps I like.

Can't wait to see it then

Thanks, I've just finished coloring the lights, now I will start the effects. If you like this one then I can make all your night fogs if you like.

Wow, fast!
Sure, that'd actually be really helpful as I wasn't sure how to do it for the rest.

I've experimented with a couple brushes for this night version so it might not quite be what you are expecting. ^^

I was wondering, did you ever end up making that night version? It's been so long, I can't remember xD
π: 0 β©: 1
No, I forgot. XD
Sorry. lol
