The Mana World Forums

Cutting an end to the voting, let's ship version K (by Freeyorp). I think it's got the best of both options E and J.







Separated from http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopi ... 90&start=0 , where you can find discussion for each of these.
.xcf files are attached in that topic, for people who want to create a new version.

I write this because I am currently lost in some cave north of Hurnscald

I think it's time to choose one and use it.

A


B


C



D



E



F



And the poll has more options for the next images that will be added...

G



H



J

I've quickly created another from F) with a different style of shadow:

---Freeyorp

That's option G
I like it, but it's problematic for entrances that are 2 tiles wide:

BTW, you can change your vote as many times as you want.

E is the best, it blends in with with the environment.

Looking closer at the images with shadows, it seems the shadows become uneven when used for 2 tile wide exits or more - I've created 3 _x2 in-between-er-ish tiles for g) which should (hopefully) fix that
---Freeyorp

Fixed the wide tiles so that the top also flows smoother
---Freeyorp

E is looking good

// GonzoDark

Option H:

I like the top of H a lot, but prefer the shadow of E.

what is B supposed to be?

I like the top of H a lot, but prefer the shadow of E.

Me too... I'll have a go at combining the two styles sometime later today.

B was me not fully understanding Crush. .

Apart from And B, I think most of the options look very good, but I voted E because of the nice shadow on the ground.

Update: Now with a different shadow:
---Freeyorp

Changed the shadow again to remove the line:
