Now that's some "not bad" GHZ art!. Also, thanks to Hitaxas for the Sonic 3 Sonic sprites.

EDIT:Syntax error.
EDIT2:Oh, DURR HURR I AM FUCKING RETARDED. Reseting the layouts didn't solved that much... luckily I had a backup of that folder. :psyduck:[/quote]
very nice, now it's just the matter of getting an FG done XD, well it's good to know you can do this on your own and get something very decent up adn running (I always thought you couidn't =P).

Thanks! But that art has changed a bit. I can't really upload a image right now because I'm not on my computer, but I think I can describe what changed...Well, I've done a new BG 256x256 (it had only one on the BG - yes, I'm THAT lazy).. all the 16x16 from moutains and shit (except for clouds) were moved up (it was because I was having troubles with deformation - kind of fixed now), added a extra "floor" to the land on the BG...and that's all I can remember for now.

EDIT:Forgot the ".".

Double post with extra lil' bump.
This hack will face some delay, especially at the ASM part; my parents no longer allow me to enter on MSN (for no apparent reason), where is where I ask my ASM questions (I only create a topic if nobody could help me).
However, it doesn't mean that progress won't be made.

New SLZ BG.

Background looks very plain. The buildings in the background have absolutely no dimension, and your color choices cause the yellows of the windows to blend into the gray of the buildings.

The red-brick base looks all right, though.

Builds are bigger now, and I'll see what else I can do about that.

Hmm...what would you suggest? I tried a lot of combinations, but none of them seemed to work too great.

It's a city, afterall. And this plain-ness is staying, unless somebody is willing to do a better BG to me :U

Also an example:

I think the main factor is to give the buildings more depth, such as through a 3D aspect and some shading to give the illusion of distance instead of a picture on a background. :colbert:

I'm wondering. Do we know who exactly lives and works in those buildings? I mean Chemical Plant zone has buildings with blinker lights to help low flying planes, so possibly an airport is nearby.

Sorry to go off-topic, but depends on the game/tv series. Could be humans, could be animals, could be anybody. :colbert:

Nonetheless, as posted in the above pictures, try to include some extra colors with the windows, such as a darker texture to show lights that are off (such as the one posted above) and random patterns, as you have already done.

If you use the importer in SonED2, it shouldn't take more than five minutes.

I've always loved that background.

Now now, no need to rush (That's when things fuck up XD), take your time M3K, maybe find ways of improving the design abit, or maybe a tad different pallet or something (That's not to say that it doesn't look fab already though =P).

Now THAT'S art. Not a lot of detail, but it looks great for a night scene.
