Re: Putting together the "Artist pack"

I told Chris about my idea, and it seems that he has plans on reworking the entire minimap coloring system a little bit. Instead of specifying what color each block has, the game will automatically create a minimap color based on the average colors of the block in question. It's worth noting that this will inevitably change how most of the current minimap colors are rendered so I will adjust the artist packs accordingly to display the correct colors once the new system is in place.

So we can all thank Chris when every single level (that uses more than one color) ever created in the history of EE is artistically destroyed. Great.

As for the Sci-fi Pack, I think it looks fine, but I don't think the Artist's Pack should be "themed" in anyway. Let's say I'm going to draw an apple. I would be forced to make my apple out of computer screens, which seems a bit odd to me. If the Artist's Pack is going to feature colors that will be used extremely frequently, I think the Artist's Pack should be a little more neutral. Perhaps the Sci-fi Pack you showed us could be its own pack, not part of the Artist's Pack.

Re: Putting together the "Artist pack"

Question: You said that Chris started working regularly on EE... Didn't he work on it before?

[Edit] -

What is that red and blue portal like bricks?

He was apparently on a business trip to America, that would certainly explain his silence.

They are supposed to be computer displays, I should probably make that a bit more clear.

Pretty much, but I guess it had to happen some time. Considering that he always made sure to pick a minimap color that represented the sum of colors of every block, I'm fairly confident that it won't be that much of a difference.

That's a very fair point, actually. I'm not against making the sci-fi pack a standalone brick pack and making the artist packs more neutral. I shall take a look at that.

I honestly think it should just be like basic bricks, but in different colors.

@RPGMaster2000

If you look 1 page back, I made a color wheel block. Pick a color, and place a block. The block will be the color you picked. It will save TONS of space! There won't be a huge menu filled with over 100 blocks. The color wheel block will have tons of colored blocks "inside" it. Like the graphics/idea?

My idea! XD. I would feel enlightened if you liked it, RPG.

Re: Putting together the "Artist pack"

RPGMASTER2000, please tell me whether or not you like the color wheel idea / whether or not it will ever happen. I'd really like to know even if it will not and you do not like it.

Re: Putting together the "Artist pack"

I can honestly say, based on what he's said before, that it probably won't happen.

An #FF0000 (HTML color code for red) colored brick?

Sci-fi pack!

Current list of colors:
Red screen (<span class="postimg"><img src="http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/6569/scifipack1.png" alt="scifipack1.png"/>) - Pure red</span>
Blue screen () - Darker blue
Metal () - Greyish white
Light block () - Pure white
Alien symbol block () - Brown

Read the underlined, bold part, please! I think that pure red means '#ff0000'.

Re: Putting together the "Artist pack"

nope. This is ff0000, somewhere around here is where I'm guessing that brick is

Re: Putting together the "Artist pack"

we need blocks like the gates that you can step through, but show on the minimap in different shades. That way you can walk through certain parts of ur art without screwing up

That.
Hope those sci-fi "pure" bricks are actually pure.

Re: Putting together the "Artist pack"

I thought that the 'pure' color bricks should be PURE and not with too much detail. Look at mine for example:

Red, with not much detail. This should go to the artist pack.

[Edit] all of these are just versions! Top is the first version and the bottom is the last version. However, since they all have different shades (Top is purely red, middle is darker red, and bottom is bright red), they can all be together with different colors.

Re: Putting together the "Artist pack"

I'm going to add them different colors now with all the shades I have. Edit: I made it:

[edit] I switched the places between Purple and Pink
[edit2] Added the whole brick color set. The shades go like this:

Left most = The first version, or the top as I showed my template.
Middle = Also the middle in the template
Right most = the bright one, or the bottom one in the template.
Colors:

Red
Orange
Yellow
Lime
Green
Cyan
Blue
Purple
Pink
