dren, picture overlay is generally best for maps. The built-in fog effect is very poor for rpgm2000-2003.
Legend, if you don't mind going in and editing chips, adding a tapper to the land masses will make them look more like they are floating. The way you have it now makes it appear as though they are going into a flat surface, like water.

Due to finding some partners at college, and not having a creative outlet as of yet, I've decided to get back into game making.
Random screens with new mapping style:

Well, would you look at that.

I'm really jealous, as always. Your maps are breath taking. You've taken editing a chipset to a whole other level.

[A Forgotten Legend]

Yeah, I see that.  Thanks!  Welcome back to the game making world.

Oh god, it's you. We missed you, man. Or at the very least, I did. You were always among my favorite charasians. Hope you stay this time.

[Moosetroop11]

Lovely. And welcome back!

[Meiscool]

Oh god, it's you. We missed you, man. Or at the very least, I did. You were always among my favorite charasians. Hope you stay this time.

I'll stay as long as... uh, I forget his name. That one British mod... doesn't get his panties in a bundle

Oh my God! I joined Charas years ago because your mapping made me feel like this was a worthy forum! You probably don't
actually remember me

[Prpl_Mage]

Geez with this fanboyism, although you're maps are brilliant.
Always gets me into the mood of actually trying to do something myself.

Looks amazing, especially the battle... But how is the second one a town?

[ellie-is]

See, and that's why MIC's better than everyone else.

That second video, man. It's hard to believe you're actually on rpg maker. It's insanely good.

[Meiscool]

Hmm, I realize now that I kinda failed to show any of the buildings (you get a glimpse of a tent though, as well as the incomplete shell store and the bridge that would take you to the chief's hut).
It is one of them hidden valley kinda things, but it does have buildings and a town feel.

I have other vids under that profile if anyone wants to watch those too.

[aboutasoandthis]

Jesus christ dude. This looks beautiful! The battle video especially was astounding. Good luck to you.

Very awesome and professional looking, mic.
