Hi
All right please shadow the tank im not good in this!

And i dont start with stats before there are other suggested stats
from the developer...

Really good!

[Stratego (dev)]

seems cool!
some more detail/shading and it will be impeccable!
what is the image size?

[COOLguy]

Hi! I was under the impression that some shading was needed. Sorry for butting in.
So I gave it a go. Here is one with and without the black outline. They are 32x40, transparency enabled.
I hope I am helping, but if not, let me know.

[Stratego (dev)]

seems super! have you tried it on terrain too?
is it a 32x40 to sideways?

[COOLguy]

yes but tiled cuts off part of it.
I should have said 40*32 (xy) because I think it overlaps to the right.

[Stratego (dev)]

enlarge the canvas of the image double 32 size so tiled will let u place both parts. so 64x32 (xy)

[COOLguy]

Ok. Thanks!

[Stratego (dev)]

what about this 1x1 overlappng to top (32px width) - maybe the turret is too long.

[COOLguy]

Do you want all overlaps to be to the top, or is to the right okay also?

[patroid]

Hi
Like this image??

The overlapping image is perfect!

[Stratego (dev)]

Do you want all overlaps to be to the top, or is to the right okay also?

to right: we never did that so i am not sure if it is working or not - and can be weird i think only to right (and not to left) - if you can make sample images and look good i can check if i can do it in code.

thanks

Hi
And again. I posted a image with a question.
And... ...no reaction .

Patroid: i wrote somewhere the way people and me react on posts - do not get offended if not everyone says something.
Your image is a slight correction of the one i quickly made, and your corrections are good.
(remark: i made it only to show you the way we can do top tile overlapping.)

also: you are the design leader here, so you can:
- have opinion and decision on image looks
- you can say that a unit is final or not (image/stats anything)
- if you think your tank is ok, than that will be the image for that (it is only me who can override your decision )
->> so you can state that a Tiger will look like this if no one has any suggestion to consider (it is not not necessary to anyone have any suggestions!).

your goal as design leader:
1. have all units the game will need (without the extra "upgrade" units) so the basic units that are balanced to each other (bonuses and so on):
- unit/structure stats
- images
- sounds
2. have all random maps the game needs to launch
3. have all campaigns the game needs to launch

basically these are your goals.

[patroid]

Ok

[balint]

it might take a bit of time for me to react, so enjoy your time before I start critisng

I won't do that .
If your image is good, than it will have views but no replies.
especially if I am the replier

Here, Daniel. This is a sample image for overlapping to the side. Tell me if it does not look good enough. It is a sample battleship 54x32 (xy) in American colors.

[Stratego (dev)]

please try it on a sample map to see how it look in these cases:
- an other unit/ship is on the right (where we are overlapiing on.
- he stands on the shore - will this overlap to the ground? (4 cases: shore left, shore right, shore top, shore bottom)
- he stands on the shore - and on the shore there is a tank will this overlap to the tank?
- there are many of these ships in a bunch - how they look.
- ... whatever you can come up to see how it look.
thanks!
