If you don't use classic then how do you know there's a combo in it with little brown specs. icon_deformed.gif

hey, blackbishop89, the screen is good. However, it uses too many different kinds of rocks and trees, which is bad for classic. It's kinda hard to tell if it is a beach screen, a mountain screen, a field screen, etc.
I like the design too.

Simple and clean. A decent Classic screen without overdoing it on the detail. That said, it could use, say a couple more trees.

I think most people don't memorize combo numbers...Just saying. The screen looks pretty good though.

Thanks, but I actually think it's a good idea to have a small assortment of rocks and trees on the same screen. It's not like in real life we have all the same trees everywhere. Also I thought the large body of water and Octoroks where a dead givaway that this was a beach scree.

Do you mean adding more trees or replacing the two small rocks with trees?

I know that poke, even I had to open ZQuest. to find out what combo he was talking about. Anyways you think it's a pretty good screen but didn't say anything else about it. Why do you think this is a good screen, in other words what make it a good screen.

This one is my original shot I revamped based on feedback.

And this one is a new one I made in a couple of minutes. And before anyone asks no it's not the screen where you get your first heart container south of parapa palace.

I think it's safe to say classic is your tileset. Both screens look great; the second one in particular uses the graphics in an interesting way I haven't seen before. Keep up the good work.

I believe he means the frame of three pillars. While I agree that is an innovative use, the perspective seems off, as if they are lying on the ground. The shadow helps a little, but I still get a 2D feeling from it.

Wow, those Z2 shots are looking great. I love the open feel of the arch with the goriyas.

But they're not Z2 screens. It's just me messing around with my new overworld combo table. icon_deformed.gif

Aside from the pillars, the use of the trees in the second shot. Most people don't use them, and when they make forests, the just Control-click a bunch of those little trees all over the place. The way you used the big trees looks really nice, and makes it actually feel like a forest. And there are also the pillars, which are pretty awesome looking, I think. icon_razz.gif
