Very satisfied with my purchase I made a while ago. These have been a great starting place for my game!

I started using RPG Maker MZ a few months ago and I've been frustrated with just how terrible the built in assets are. I've actually bought a couple different asset packs on here and I have super frustrated how a lot of the artists on here didn't say clearly whether or not their packages supported RPG Maker, and I'm really happy after purchasing the big bundle that a lot of these (still going through and organizing them all.) And I'm really REALLY happy to see that a lot if not all of them have folders specifically for different versions of RPG Maker and different resolutions. Yes I COULD convert them to 48/48 myself, but the fact that the creator took the time to save me the effort so I can focus on making my game and not constantly get weighed down in stupid little stuff makes me VERY appreciative.

Hey there, these are great.  Had to make my own 48/48 versions (not hard just set Photoshop to nearest neighbour and multiply the DPI by 3) that said, Would be helpful if you named the RPG Maker MZ stuff with the tile letter you expect people to use rather than putting it further in the file name so it gets cut off. (Not that I can't change it, but the easier you make things for your customers, the happier they'll be.)

Was also surprised that there's no auto tiles for transitioning from sand to grass. Again, I can make it myself but part of the reason somebody buys a tileset is to be able to focus on other stuff. 

Anyway, overall they're great.  I'm very happy with my purchase. :)

Sorry one more thing. Do you have any rough estimate for when you think those will be done? (Don't want to rush or make you think you're under the gun. I honestly should have checked the description before buying... though your tiles are really gorgeous.) Once you do complete I'll purchase the pack again (I realize I don't have to but I will do it as a thank you.)

Also not sure if you're aware, if you want to make 16/16 tiles into 32/32 and 48/48 tiles for the three sizes of RPG Maker MZ tile set options you can just set Photoshop or whatever image app you're using to resample with nearest neighbour and then change your DPI from whatever it is to that number x2 for 32/32 and x3 for 48/48. Which might cut off future requests from people who want larger tiles. (Don't feel a need to do that just for me though, that's easy to do myself in Photoshop.)

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll hold off until you say you're done then. I tried doing it myself but RPG maker's auto tile system is such a mind**** (not sure if you can swear in the comments on here.) I tried to do it myself but it gave me such a headache. I don't know why their system is so obtuse from the artist's perspective. Having the system generate these middle ground tiles based on little subtitles is ridiculous. It would make far more sense to just allow people to do a few 9/9 grids. Like this literally waves a couple megabytes per game, but wastes hours and hours of the artist's time.

This is a really gorgeous set, reminds me a lot of Zelda games. I started working on an RPG maker game that I plan to draw all the assets in, but I wanted something to start with so I wouldn't get bogged down in drawing stuff and never being happy with how it looked.

Seems you haven't quite worked out RPG Maker MZ support so I'll have to do a fair bit of 'reformatting' of things. Which is too bad, I hoped to be able to just buy it and go. But I know how to use Photoshop, so it's not the end of the world.

Still, it would have been really nice to be able to just drop these into RPG Maker and go instead of having to do a bunch of work :) (their auto tile system gives me a headache. It's not that complicated but it's still annoying.)
