k.digennaro 2 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 hmmmmm, it probally would be, but i kinda like the idea of having one image with everyones work in it. let me try something really quick, i might have an idea that might help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wither 13 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 I think that there needs to be a set angle. Otherwise, nothing will look normal. We'll have buildings floating and ... just other... badness. The pixel town you showed us looks great. Isometric perception isn't that hard to do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k.digennaro 2 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 i agree with you wither, and with you jerk, im just trying to think of how to explain it easily, maybe if we made a town grid like this, id put more 'plots' of land of in, but people could choose wat block they wanted then build a building that would fit there, that way it would help with size issues and angels, does that make sense? do you think itd work?

Dobby 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 It Looks Quite good... Maybe you could have smaller 'Plots' So 1. You can fit More on 2. The Ones People make are quite small Anyway, So It Kinda Makes Sense Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

journey 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 i know you are talking about how if things where on an angle it would work, i quickly made this, is this what you mean? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Myrddin 5 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 If you are going to be doing an isometric pixel town, then might I suggest following the usual conventions of line construction, as outlined here: http://www.19.5degs.com/element/833.php#b1. Your pixel town grid does not really follow this convention. It would help to keep everything in perspective and look like 'true' pixel art. Just a suggestion though, nothing to be taken as a dig against what has been presented here already . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just a suggestion though, nothing to be taken as a dig against what has been presented here already . thanks for your comment, i agree with wat your saying, im going to add that link in the main post in a min as a guideline, and im working on a grid, the buildings could technically still be at different angles, but if you followed the grid it would look good. *note* the reason i havent added some of them is because i didnt have permission. i dont no a lot about artist rights etc on the forums, but am i allowed to use the image posted in this thread? all i want to do with them is put them on the main post. do i need to ask individual permission? edit: heres the grid i made, most of the plots are similar size, although i did a few different sizes, the gray area in the middle would be a town square or something, i would add details on the roads, maybe some train tracks, stop signs etc..

topezia 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 So we are making a town I think therefore we should dedicate some buildings/institutions (museums/universities/concert halls, etc. stuff like that...you know) to the founding fathers of Paint.net so here is my tribute to Rick Brewster: a concert hall: Rick's Court , true (well almost true) copy of London's Earls Court (I mean I've traced over the real one :oops:) and what's most with Pink Floyd in a never ending concert (my dreams come true!) My only condition: I want my forever reserved seat first row in front of the group See if you like it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k.digennaro 2 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 haha ^^ why thank you NC , i hope it works out, right now we just gotta get the kinks worked out heres the grid with jerkfight and d.cs building. ^^if i post this and say something like your building or watever must fit in a grid do you think it would work out? edit: just saw your post topezia, i think thats a good idea, we just need to work out the kinks first , were getting there edit: oops fixed typo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
