Tashkin already said that, no one is up to revamp the tileset which really downed the tileset making. I'll rather pay for the tileset with real money just to get the tileset.

No they legit have high functioning autism, and so does everyone who played iera, including me (explains a lot ik).

No not everyone who played iEra does. Speak for yourself, not others. There is that small percentage in Era where the community won't treat you or talk to you like crap. It's rare but it's in there.

The worst servers?

Zone due to lack of content and that new jail system that is ******ed. Era due to P2W of getting the best guns and how the job payouts sucks badly. But Classic is it's own little charm and I enjoy Ol'West though I have the most hours on Era with 7k lol.

To me, iZone has the best community, but terrible "contents". The tileset is ugly, and they need to stop hiring 20+ ZPs.

While other departmens only have like less than 10

Or 5

Unfortunately when hiring Graal Staff, supply vs. demand doesn't work. There is literally nothing that can be done by a server to make more devs appear. I can guarantee you that there is not a single server that is just happily and intentionally hiring a ton of GPs and no devs. It's really obnoxious seeing people pretend that servers love not hiring devs.

That was me who said that, Tash was and has always been supportive of a new tileset. I said that Zone doesn't have anyone who could make a better tileset even if they tried.  

That's what he said on Zone Insights.



Never meant he wasn't supportive, just said that no one volunteered or even up for the tileset making job.  

You have graphics staff, make it...

anything that you need to buy weapons on can sometimes lead to p2w.

But isn't most of Delteria's good weapons free in dungeons?

idk lmao I don't play delt.  

You're terrible in understanding, OG. I already told you, nobody is up for it. You can't just make a tileset without pressure planning.

Zone's graphics team is in no way able to make a tileset. As far as I know there is no one there who has ever made a tileset before, would know how, or could if they tried. And if someone there did make a tileset it would end up worse than the current one.

You probably shouldn't talk about stuff you don't know about, because making a tileset really isn't something for an amateur artist to do, it is really something that takes time and dedication. Latte and I have tried to make a tileset (unrelated to zone) before and ended up giving in after a few days, and Latte is a pretty darn good artist, and legions ahead of anyone on Zone's graphics team as far as I'm concerned.

Anyone who says delt is pay2win has no idea what pay2win means.

rofl. I remember how Legend and I payed some artstudio for a 'real' tileset but never uploaded it. I guess, karma.

This right here is the tl;dr of not just iZone but every server, that devs wished players would understand  

iClassic has to be the worse as of now. Yeah, those graphics ain't helping them at all.

lol :0

Try do it bit by bit. The whole tileset doesn't need to be revamped, just some bits. You could start off by changing the colour of some of the tiles, (that was my biggest issue, as the blue/light grey city floating in the blue sky really didn't match, maybe try adding some black/grey buildings or changing the sky to space) then start fixing up the shading on others. You don't need to redo it fro, scratch. When era got its tileset updated, it wasn't the entire thing, it started with just the roads/footpaths, then the sand, grass and water, then the trees, and that's pretty much all that was changed, and it still made a big improvement

Your first step could be just redoing the water, sand, grass and dirt since they are single tiles and would be fairly easy to redo compared to the building tiles. (And because they look pretty horrible, especially the water contrasted with the sand) Then you could update the trees. Those alone would change the look of the map quite alot
