Resource HGSS for RMXP 1.2

[DrifterFox]

Just as TruePotatoQ stated, I too don't fully understand. I removed the dotted lines and organized them to be in one long line just like normal tilesets. However, the yellow and purple seemed to stay when I put in the sprites. Not to mention, the sprites seem small. I'm unsure if that is just the gen4 style or if I did something wrong.

Stupid question but...are the tiles perhaps too small for RPGMaker XP? I tried making a map but they look like they've been half-sized...am I doing something wrong?

scale them up 200%

Scaling them up by using my resizing tools makes the edges look all fuzzy though...like here I have screenshots of some of the rocks on the tilesheet. Scaled is on the right, unscaled is on the left, and the unscaled is a lot sharper. I get the same results regardless if I resize by 200% or if I manually double the pixel dimensions

Make sure nearest neighbor is on.

Make sure nearest neighbor is on.

...this is probably going to be a really stupid question (and I am sorry if it is I am new to using tilesets outside of the ones that came with Essentials) but what is the "nearest neighbor" thing?

Edit: nevermind apparently it's not an rpg maker setting it's a gimp setting. ty for the help Tech and Rhatios ^^ And since I have neglected to say it already (and I do apologize for it) tyvm SirMalo for compiling this resource ^^

Hey outrivaled :)

It means you have to create a new file with the tiles you want to use. RMXP uses a specific format for the tilesets, so the picture you're gonna use must be 256px large. But as RMXP only allow 32x32 tiles and Pokémon uses 16x16 tiles, we will first work with dimensions divided by 2 and then resize it properly.

Basically, open the different tilesheets in a picture-editing software (graphicsgale, aseprite, photoshop...), then create a new file that is 128px large and let's say 3200px high. Display a 16x16 grid on each of those files.

As 128px corresponds to 8 tiles, you'll notice all my tilesheets are divided in columns that are exactly 8 tiles large. So you just have to select the tiles you want to use, making sure you stick to the grid, then paste them on your blank tileset. To help you, keep the pink background, you'll be able to delete it after in RMXP and it perfectly follows the grid.

Once you pasted everything you needed, crop the tileset, then expand it x2 (so it's 256px large and matches the RMXP format). You can now import it on RMXP, and chose the pink background as transparency color.

Could you explain in more detail how to set the pink background as the transparency? I cannot figure this out

There seems to be a problem. Some tiles for the mountains seem to be missing.

Hello! May i ask why you gave the buildings tileset a completely different shade of pink? You can only chose one shade for transparency in RMXP.

Can I have the version you made of it just being a normal tileset?
