PSXtreme 0 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 You don't need photoshop. Use MS Paint. To save it without f*cking it up, use Paint and save as a 24-Bit Bitmap (bmp). Then just go on download.com and download a BMP to GIF convertor. Use that on your bmp to get a gif, and you're all set. Link to post Share on other sites

MindCorrupt 185 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Damnit, i was thinking of making a fire station. I guess I'll try and we'll see which one makes it to the city. Anyways, lose the yellow. It looks like sh*t. Go for it, i wasnt expecting mine to make it anyway Anyways: http://img188.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img188&image=pixel226hr.png Which one is better? or are they both as bad as eachother?

Mewish 0 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Okay, request for any uber-leet code slingers. I want to be able to make perfect iso lines by holding down the shift key, like for the cardinal directions and diagonals. If you add the eight iso lines of pixel purdiness you will be anointed "lackey of the day". My japantown set's first block is almost complete, and I have a freeway tileset in the works.

Mercie 10 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 I thought I would give this a try. I chose a medium sized lot and started. Then I though to my self, this sh*t is hard... I can't believe how much time this takes. Lousy pixel graphics *shakes fist* Link to post Share on other sites

Im lacking any ideas of what I could make for this, I really wanna contribute something but havent got a clue what. It's the same thing with me but I already have a building started. I'm just going to make it a small apartment building unless I can think of something else that already isn't going ot be made. Here's what I have so far: I know the windows are out of alignment but I'm going to fix them after I work out my problem with putting windows on the shaded side. I can't get them to look right.

Good job, looks much better now. Yeah, the windows are pretty messed up on the right side, maybe you should take out the little window inbetween the four big ones and the other big one on the other side. And try and get rid of those odd white pixels around the frame of the windows. Link to post Share on other sites

Or at least make it alot smaller. It's the smallest template on first page. No, I mean make most of the parking lot into something else. Something that isn't a parking lot. so 2 cars are about as big an entire apartment building? my god. No, they'd be the size of the cars on PSXtreme's last submission. In that case, your parking spaces would hold about three cars. Edited February 21, 2005 by PSXtreme Link to post Share on other sites
