Fantastic! Especially considering how much of it is just a heavy editing of default assets... Last year I dove into a bunch of online courses on digital painting, and learning more about how light and shadows work was easily the biggest game-changer out of everything. Combine that with some well-designed weather and/or particle effects, and you can make a humble RPG MAKER game look just as appealing as most big-budget AAA game productions!
Amazing job! You have a new subscriber now! Would it be possible in RPG Maker in theory to have some of the lights flickering to add more interactivity?
Thank you! Yes, that's possible. You could either put them as events (like you would with NPCs) or use something like yanfly's grid-free doodads for that. You would need to create some flickering sprites for that. There are also some lighting plugins that allows for flickering lights, but I'm not very familiar with those.
Man your rain system looks so cool, the reflection and neon light provided a perfect feeling for the cyberpunk vibe, may I know how you made it, thank you so much!
hello. Very good job that inspires me to work on our projects more. This is amazing. I shared this video on my channel, I hope this will be able to attract a Russian-speaking audience to you and inspire them to do the same great work! Thanks a lot!
@@starlitcastle RPG Maker for me just one of my favorite hobbies (8 in my channel it's not most important part but it is. and for some of my subscribers it's a most interesting part on my chennel, and i really like to share some interesting content with whem from other authors, couse i don't produce much of it as they want.
Well, this one is just MV RTP edits (and one tile from FSM Castles). And if I need tiles I usually check the rpgmakerweb forums and if they don't have any I make them myself, so sorry, no mindblowing secret sources here XD
Well, this depends. You can do a pretty neutral map and use the screen tint feature in MV to simulate different day times and use a weather particle plugin for weather, you could also exchange the light layer by updating it using the plugin commands... or you can actually paint a parallax map for each time/weather situtation and exchange them when needed. But that wouldn't be a fading transition between times/weathers so not working well for a dynamic weather/time of day cycle setup. Even though you probably could blend between layers with galv's plugin, as you could update the opacity a couple of times for a transition... I have never tried it so I'm not sure which would be the best aproach for a dynamic system. I just have worked with day/night versions before which change based on story progression etc. I think it should be possible, it just needs a good evented setup. There are also some light shader plugins like "community lighting" that might help.
This one is mainly MV tiles, some edited. Additionally you can check the rpgmakerweb forums, which have a subforum for resources created by the community or the DLCs on either Steam or Komodo Plaza. Itchio also has a lot of RPGM resources and I know some even buy from the japanese platform pixiv booth.
that's really wonderful，i didn't even know rpgmaker mv could make such brilliant map before ❤
Holy crap, that looks amazing. idk whether to feel discouraged or inspired lol
I'd love to see more futuristic maps like this, you're so creative! 🙂
Thx!

You're on a roll getting these videos out. I'm working on my own projects and these are helping me a lot. Thank you so much for your hard work!
Best of luck for your projects! I'm glad people find these helpful.
@@starlitcastle \(^.^)/
This is outstanding! Really sets an amazing mood
Thank you!
это так красиво!!!
This looks phenomenal!
I have no idea how to do this, but I will learn!
Absolutely amazing!
Thank you!
That's looks so sweet^^ I love your videos, thx
thank you!
I would love to see how you handle a dungeon interior next :D
Adding that one to the list ;)
Daaaaaaaaamn! You have amazing skils, ngl
I don’t like how good you are at this. It’s not fair.
Haha, thanks. It's been years of practice. I bet you can get there too.
You have such great videos. It's so cool to see how to create layers and depth with these maps.
Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad people enjoy the videos or find them helpful :)

It's a mix of the parallax map with those painted in lights etc. and a weather plugin (weather_ex by moghunter).
@@starlitcastle Thank you so much, I'll try it out later.
Your maps are better and better with each video. Are you holding back on us? LOL ♥
Das ist so gut! So, allso könnten RPG Maker Spiele aussehen. 😀That is fine! So, that's what RPG Maker games could look like.
Could you change the music to the calm ones for the next video?
hello.

Aww, thank you! I need to check out your videos, just gave your channel a quick look and saw that you uploaded parallax maps, too :)

와뭐야 어캐했어ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ대박
This looks so good! Did you design those tiles yourself? (sorry for my english)
Your english is good. And no, those are the tiles that come with rpg maker me!
Is there a demo available for your game I wanna play it
😱😍
Is there a specific website which you get free tileset or characters from?
Well, this one is just MV RTP edits (and one tile from FSM Castles). And if I need tiles I usually check the rpgmakerweb forums and if they don't have any I make them myself, so sorry, no mindblowing secret sources here XD
Nice!
Curious, what method did you use for displaying in a widescreen resolution in-game?
You can use a plugin for that, either the community plugin that comes with later versions of MV or yanfly's core.
@@starlitcastle Oh I didn't know they did that in a new update. That's great! It's been awhile since I've touched MV
what editor are you using if i may ask?
If we are talking about the image editor, it's Clip Studio Paint.
@@starlitcastle thank you.
I know this 8 months later but i gotta ask. Do you have to do Parallaxes for each weather and time cycle? If so how?
Well, this depends. You can do a pretty neutral map and use the screen tint feature in MV to simulate different day times and use a weather particle plugin for weather, you could also exchange the light layer by updating it using the plugin commands... or you can actually paint a parallax map for each time/weather situtation and exchange them when needed.

Where do you find your ressource ?
This one is mainly MV tiles, some edited. Additionally you can check the rpgmakerweb forums, which have a subforum for resources created by the community or the DLCs on either Steam or Komodo Plaza. Itchio also has a lot of RPGM resources and I know some even buy from the japanese platform pixiv booth.
ok, but ur street lamp not reflected
How did you give itCOLISIOJNNN
check my videos, I have a tutorial for collision/passability.
I feel like for a beginner (myself specifically) this is impossible.
I had to mute the video because of the awful music choice, but this looks great!
