While i did see @Shiratsuyu made a mega-thread for general small bugs of this update, i wanted to make a thread that is focused on catching any less known map that might've been overlooked. For starters, all the places I'll share would only be places where i can see a valid and easy solution to fixing them. Sharing maps that no one uses, but require an entire redrawing of the scene is just wasted effort by our devs. Btw, suggestion for maps that have to be redrawn, and their background outside of the drawing is black, I believe in many places, just adding a black gradient around them would do wonders. There are a few places where the original art have done this already, it can be employed in other maps that werent reworked to the new sizes Spoiler: For example, the potion shop in perion already has this black gradient style I'll start this thread off with two places: Nautilus job giver: Spoiler: oh boi Because the sky needs to show in the window, we can't avoid the blue background, and redrawing the top is a no go. So what about bringing the entire drawing of the map to the top, then adding another layer of these metal blocks at the bottom? This way the entire screen would be covered, without needing to redraw anything. Aqua road's tower: Spoiler: blue void :o This one is super simple, Just add more ground to the left and right side, problem solved I will add more maps in the future if i find ones that could have easy fixes
the weapon store is normal ish (has like that weird space below which is background so it looks like the shop is in mid air)
Question, does fixing the maps evolves just polishing the area's in photoshop and compiling them to game files? Like i said before, to whoever staff member who needs. I worked for 3 years as a technical director in a high-tech company. i am very good with textures, making them seem-less, patching things up and general graphic work. So if there's anyway i can help fix the maps being posted here just let me know. ill do it happily and voluntarily ofcourse.
Dear all, thank you for the great initiative! We had a "HD" Bug Mega-Thread in the works, which you can now find here: https://royals.ms/forum/threads/1024x768-client-master-bug-thread.155700/#post-919400 I kindly ask you all to direct your findings there and follow the correct format when posting! Together we can fix the remaining issues in no time, I'm sure!
From back when i did sprite hunting to make a "design your chair" I noticed that while some maps are constructed off a single drawing, some are made from elements that were placed on a base drawing, and some were almost all seperate base elements. So i guess it depends on the place? If its just a single layer drawing, then I bet I can help with editing in photoshop as well :3
