[DIS] Artis roads
I have a problem to map the city exterior... We have actually 3 different kind of ground tiles that we can use in this city, the dirt, the grass and the newly added pavement.
I've started to map with the dirt to represent the roads, the grass around trees and wild area and pavement around houses and non-road area.
It looks good for some closed area like the warrior guild. But else, it really look bad, I wonder if I should use the pavement tileset to make roads and the dirt&grass for everywhere else. But then, should there be dirt or pavement around house?
I will need to rethink at how to use the pavement tileset, but it just look bad actually imo. alt26 :'(

I looked back on my old tileset development preview, using the dirt/ground around houses is not that bad.
And a last example with the old map used on the alpha release of Evol.
Another example with hal9000's test map:

With that preview it looks really good. In my opinion isn't necessary any change
Re: [DIS] Artis roads
Looking at the pics carefully, i like the way things are turning out, but perhaps yes "Pic 2" from the top, should have some out lining around those buildings, i think it should look like "pic 5" from the top, i like the colors there and the trees on either side of the path, it gives a nice warm welcoming feeling ^-^ . That "Pic 2" from the top, looks too cold..
Re: [DIS] Artis roads
I still prefer the darker dirt though.
