Resources / NemZ's tileset emporium

« on: June 04, 2011, 09:56:19 PM »

This thread is a clearinghouse of my custom 8bit tilesets, freely available for anyone's use though mostly made for specific expansion projects.  I'm open to MM8BDM-related requests but I don't promise to accept all of them.

Also check out my tutorial thread.

Highway


Chill Penguin
(one of those unusual maps where the base color for all four tile palettes isn't black.  I won't be doing special slope tiles for every stage that has them but that's a big part of CP stage's feel, plus the snow would look out of place otherwise.)


Spark Mandrill 
(The way all the platforms have edges all around will probably necessitate making some compound textures and breaking areas up into units of identical widths.  It's either that, ignore the edges, or make a custom texture for every damn wall)


Armored Armadillo


Launch Octopus


Boomer Kuwanger (should be interesting finding a good place for the big weather control thingy)


Sting Chameleon


Storm Eagle
(airship/carrier thing was WAY more work than I wanted to put into it, especially with one-use-only tiles.  You can have it flying around in the background though)
 
...Now with a more accurate skybox texture thanks to Knux for providing a proper reference photo.

Flame Mammoth (and 'frozen' lava by request)


Sigma's Fortress

Powered Up:

Intro
(peach = common background color, not black or white.  Kinda weird, but I guess it works?  'House' block actually required using three of the four palettes.)


Bomb Man PU


Guts Man PU


Cut Man PU


Elec Man PU


Ice Man PU
(cheated like a mofo on the dark background, but oh well... looks cool and isn't anything too outrageous.)


Fire Man PU


Oil Man PU
(palette correction, tweaks and additions from existing FC tileset)


Time Man PU
(palette correction, tweaks and additions from existing FC tileset)


Wily stages





Construction Tiles (just the weird ones, and no idea what skybox they're supposed to go with)

Wily Wars (MM1):

(click to show/hide)

WW1 Bomb


WW1 Guts
(rather bland, but parallax mountains should look nifty.)


WW1 Cut


WW1 Elec
(Will probably have to make composite texture patches for each individual wall section to make it look right, so a modular stage design would save a lot of work)


WW1 Ice


WW1 Fire
(backgrounds should be interesting with multiple layers of caverns in parallax.  The actual textures will need to be built from tiles depending on the size of whatever space it needs to fill.)


WW1 Wily stages
(mostly the same recolored tiles, with stage 3 and all the weird little extra bits off to the side)

Wily Wars (MM2):

(click to show/hide)

WW2 Wood


WW2 Air


WW2 Crash


WW2 Flash (when setting up the animated iceblocks remember that they should stay blue most of the time, only cycling through the last three tiles occationally with a long delay.)


WW2 Quick


WW2 Metal


WW2 Bubble


WW2 Heat (will need to place the lava falls/flows as needed)


WW2 Wily 1


WW2 Wily 2-4
(3 stages with the same tileset, though each of them tries to use different parts of it to stand out.
Still, I figured I might as well just keep all the pieces for all three because who knows what some mapper might need.)


WW2 Wily 5&6

Wily Wars (MM3):

(click to show/hide)

Magnet Man


Hard Man


Top Man


Shadow Man


Spark Man


Needle Man


Snake Man


Gemini Man


Wily 1 and 4


Wily 2, 3, 5 and 6

Wily Wars (Tower):

(click to show/hide)

Buster Rod G


Mega Water S


Hyper Storm H


Tower 1


Tower 2


Tower 3


Tower 4

Mega Man V:

(click to show/hide)

Mercury


Venus


Mars
(forget gun barrels on main sheet, use below instead)



Jupiter


Saturn


Neptune
(and deck gun prop)



Uranus


Pluto


Terra
(includes some tiles from darkmoon, wily 1 and wily 3 to flesh it out)


Wily
(skipping the rush jet level... meh)

Mega Man & Bass:

(click to show/hide)

Museum


Cold Man


Burner Man
(cheated on the flowers but it didn't look right without them.  I suggest using a layered approach to the outdoor backgrounds [ferns & leaves > trunks > green] to really give it a feeling of depth.)


Pirate Man
(I cheated on the beach animation, but oh well... couldn't see any other way to pull that off)


Ground Man


Tengu Man mk2
(ignore the propellers on the main sheet and use the ones below.)



Magic Man 
(tracks are only 4 pixels high from the side.  The stripped poles should have a continuous twist if textures are placed correctly)


Astro Man mk2
(I suggest making the white panel tiles slightly transparent, allowing actors placed behind it to create silhouettes)


Dynamo Man
I don't really like these much and don't blame the v4 team for not using them. 
I may redo the whole thing at some later time.

...and I did!


King stages (more coming soon)
(the second is it's actually 3 mini-stages linked together with palette swaps, so I suggest something along the lines of Crystalman's stage)

Mega Man & Bass 2:

(click to show/hide)

Cave


Aircon Man


Komuso Man

Dangan Man


Clock Men


Compass Man


Rockman Shadow

Some of the tricks he pulls off with special weapons are real eye-openers.

A much better question is why are people RPing in a FPS rather than just starting an IRQ somewhere.

This should probably go under the suggestions page, but it's relevant here so...
1.  Why doesn't the 'ignore player' settings save a running list rather than having to be set up every time I log on?
2.  Is there an option to just turn off player chat entirely without having to do a player-by-player selection?

That's a HORRIBLE choice of color scheme for Pluto.

Ramp in the middle is far superior, both in terms of functionality and aesthetics.  The steps on the side are also ideal for placing random little powerups.

Ideally slopes will only be used in places where there are currently several tightly-packed stairs without landings or to act as a barrier to ground weapons without making simple walking annoying, such as in the outside section of Napalm Man's stage.  I'm confident that the vast majority of stairs currently in place will stay just as they are.

Mega Man Discussion / Re: What order are the series in this franchase important to

« on: May 22, 2011, 03:48:19 AM »

In order:

Classic holds the flagship position, but I'm starting to think it's about time to put it to bed with an epic finale... maybe go to 12.
X started out awesome but quickly turned to complete bullshit.  If X9 killed off Axel and started leading into the whole elf wars plotline I'd potentially be interested again.
Zero was cool but it's over, so I'd rather they just leave it alone and not risk retroactively screwing things up.
ZX is rather meh.  Really needs to find it's own groove and stop leeching off of the Zero series if it's going to ever amount to anything.
Legends 1 was an interesting experiment but I don't really care about continuing it.
It would take effort for me to care any less about the other spinoffs.

Again, MM8 and MM&B have slopes.  The X, Zero and ZX games have them as well.  This isn't the end of the frickin' world.

What's more, MM8BDM really ISN'T a platformer and every attempt to make it one just destroys a map's flow, so why this bizarre insistence on limiting a level designer's options?

« on: May 21, 2011, 08:12:34 AM »

Its bugginess was fixed in whole in MM3GB and Wily Wars. Just throwin' that out there.

I never played either of those so I don't really care.  Being fixed later doesn't help the original NES game either, now does it?

Top spin does suck.  It might be good for certain parts, yes, but there's absolutely no denying that it's a buggy mess.  Why oh why couldn't it just be like Metroid's screw attack?

MM5 was quite enjoyable indeed.  The rush coil variant is a big improvement in control once you get used to it, but the way they screwed up sliding mechanics (can't jump cancel) is a sour note.  The weapons are a mixed bag, and in general aren't worth the time to switch to... but them I'm one of those folks who doesn't use anything but the arm cannon except in especially annoying situations, so I don't really care.

MM8 wasn't good at all, and I mean that as a game in general, not just as part of the series.

My ranking tiers for the classics, main series only:

9
4/5
2/3/10
1/6/7
8

To be honest, I'd like to have just a few slopes in a bunch of stages, but like, keep some stairs around, but you know, that's just me.  

It's not just you... that what the proposal was about from the beginning.  Nobody has suggested getting rid of all stairs.

Holy crap people, how hard is it to actually read what you're voting on?

Guys, I don't think anyone is suggesting replacing ALL stairs... just some of them, in places where it makes sense to speed things up a bit.
