ZC-Ninja easily gets my vote this time. I just love the pub because it seems more real than any other pub screen I have seen, both in look and atmosphere. There are many tables scattered, lots of people, and a stage (although not necessary, it is a nice feature). I assume that the pub takes up more than one screen from the looks of it, so missing a few aspects is not bad either. Those windows really caught my eye as well.

All of the others were above-average shots, but I'll have to go with ZC-Ninja here. That thread really helped you improve the area, but it was great even beforehand. Incredible attention to detail.

Anderson- Um... not bad, but nothing really stands out.

Dark Lord Magus- Would be better had you actually made a screen instead of just copying the final boss scene from Mystic Quest.
The health thing looks kinda wierd to.

Linkus- If I lose, I would prefer to lose to this one, as its the only one I actually really like... grahpics are wonderfully drawn. Nothing really bad about it other than the lack of sprites.

Mighty- The beach and water are to big of a off set for me to focus on anything else, although the rest is pretty good.

Slyph- Um... yet again, not bad, but nothing really stands out.

Dragon- GOD. Is it really that hard to take a snapshot from in the game??? At least you could cut off the sidebar or something!! Its a ok shot, but you should have put a bit more effort into it...


*Despite my effort, no one even bothred to reply to my request on how to get the fricken transperent layer to work... so here is what the shot actually should look like (The transperent layer keeps disappering ><)

ZC Ninja gets my vote.

Xdragon has a good one though. Better than last time. The Mountains don't match up correctly though and the it is a little square. Other that those details it is good. Weird that you have been using the Adventure tileset after you gave it a 3 star.

Sylph: It is okay. The design is more then most in there first trys. I think there is too many of the same trees though.

Mighty Darknut: A little too bright for me. It looks like Pokemon to me, is what you are going for.

Linkus Masti: I like the custom tiles. It looks really good. This would have been my second vote. Great job.

Dark Lord Magus: Looks like a cutscene. But not a bad looking one.

Anderson333: Great pallette. You are getting better and better Anderson.

Hey ZC Ninja, do you have the show trans layers checked in ZC?

I cant find that rule anywhere, unless you mean on the screen, which yes I do, hence why it showed up in the editor shot.

Yea, If I'd have seen it with the layer I'd have voted for it.
He said he had it checked, so that's why I never responded, it's anyone's guess what he's doing wrong to make it not work.
checked on the layer, or on the player?
IF you have it clicked to transparent, then maybe that's your problem, you're looking right through the stuff... who knows, if it's turned off on the player... well there you go, some people have had to check it others it was that way from the default.
I know Iriss had that problem.

ZC-Ninja's shot of the pub is awesome, though the way Linkus Mastii's shot flows together perfectly is just too much for me to ignore. I vote for him.

Yeah, that is what I meant. On the ZC PLAYER (Not ZQUEST), check to see if the show trans layers is off. You probably turned it off on accident.

Eek. More difficult to vote this week than I was expecting. (And here I thought I'd finally submit something. Ha!)

A lot of GREAT work from everyone, but I gotta give my vote to Likus. GREAT tiles.

Null Voted-

Anderson333- Nice shot, but it seems alittle bare..

Mine- Yes, it is actually right before a brief ( but comical) cutscene, unfortunately I had redone the lifebar after I submitted this shot (I changed alot of things around.. but my data is now corrupted and I no longer have access to my quest icon_frown.gif) this screen definately looks better animated-- you would swear you were playing through a better version of Mystic Quest ( which it was going to be..)

Linkus Mastii- Those are some very well drawn tiles.. if I would have voted mine would've gone here. Great shot overall.

Mighty Darknut- Ah, the brightest of all the Shots.. very colorful, and I notice another custom-tiled quest icon_razz.gif very nice.

Sylph- Hmm.. it seems abit too...green. Don't get me wrong, its a wonderful shot, but some overhanging trees or something would have made this shot look better.. and possibly some water.

XdragonSB- Another awesome shot, but the owl looks out of place balanceing in/on the hole of that house. Other than all I can say is very nicely put together.

ZC-Ninja- and finally, the most pubbiest pub there ever was! This definately would've gotten my vote, now im not so sure if id have voted for Linkus's or not.. the stage looks a ton of alot better centered icon_razz.gif but I notice your still useing Edward the bard! (lol) but the clock in the middle of the room behind the stage still looks alittle strange (I still say a giant window would have been better)

Everyone- Awesome job. Hopefully things will pick up and we can have a wonderful SoTW like this for several more weeks

Simple: to make the program run faster on slow computers.

Also, I voted for ZC-Ninja

You know, I think this is the first week where I really, honestly have no idea who to vote for. icon_shrug.gif

I think I'll be going with Dark Lord Magus here. I just can't get over, ... well, ... everything in the shot. Dude, if you had more onscreen effects, such as twinkles, and that "Void"ish look, I'd be voting for the shot 20 times over. My specialty is theming, so, this definitely earns my respect, right next to ZC-N's shot. The only reason why I'm not voting for it is because I've seen it before, so the surprise factor is off. However, there's nothing else stopping me from voting for ZCN's shot, other than the fact that DLM's shot is so much closer to both a final boss and a cinematic, while still showing all all the graphics he used.

Linkus Mastii or ZC-Ninja... hmm... both shots are awesome and both shots are very original (Ah, I love originality!).

Well, though Ninja's shot is full of details and it's perhaps the coolest SotW shot ever, I have to vote for Mastii as his shot is just sligthly more pleasent to my eye...
