The Mana World Forums

Hey, I'm currently working on a isometric tileset and I'm having difficulties understanding how best to edit and arrange them (I'm also having a lot of issues trying to map with them in Tiled) . Can anyone here point me to some resources or information that might help me?

The projection of TMW is orthogonal, not isometric.

Thanks!
Here's a test of what I have so far
Sorry for using you guys as guinea pigs, but I feel comfortable getting advise and feedback from this forum (before I take it over to a pixel art one anyway).

This looks great! An artist may have a more constructive review, but I'm certainly impressed.

What's up with the dithering? IMO it breaks the lighting.

Are the visible grid lines between the tiles intentional (for example as a visual aid for a tile-oriented strategy game) or are you looking for advise to get rid of them (for a higher immersion)?

I agree. The borders may also be a little too pronounced (e.g., for the top of the tree).
