Granny's Little Bits

There are unused tiles tucked away in here - a wall tile with grapes on the end columns, 


the edit of a grape arbor growing over the tunnel through the wall (dark or transparent...


Tile A4 includes patterned walls for your own easy wall edits in colors of your choice,


and those white looking center ceilings are transparent, in case you prefer grass or dirt instead of sand for your vineyard interior, so you can easily add it.


And below, a charset, for a conversation with the poor chap who stomps the grapes.

I used Mack's Japanese tileset. See spoiler:

Features of the Resources/ Suggested Mapping Approach:
* Four Main Areas – My tiles have been designed to allow you to produce four areas in your maps, which overlap one another somewhat, as modern cities do. They are High Rise, Old Towne, Industrial/Commercial, and Suburban.
*Waterways - TileA1/A2 - Most modern cities have very regulated waterways due to crowding. Industrial areas may have boggy run-off areas. Suburban areas could have creeks. For this reason, I suggest using the inside water tiles, which provides a creek and fountains, and the TileA2 edit with a boggy areas for your modern city.
TileA1 – Use the Ace RTP Inside-A1 with two edited water tiles.
TileA2 – this compilation from CyangMou, Candacis, IceDragon, TerraChan, Mack, the RTP and GrandmaDeb has a grass bordered boggy depression for watery areas also. (not passible via boats – if )
*Approach to Vehicles/World Mapping - I suggest that main maps only have “decorative” vehicles. Vehicles on main maps can be parked or shown moving in a parallax on busy streets where your players cannot travel. Players can enter certain vehicles (taxis, buses, or cars in parking lots or parking spaces) which then transport them to a world map, where the player appears as a vehicle on a road. On the world map, a 32x32 (or slightly larger) vehicle may be used.
As you can see, next to a 32 by 32 sprite, a vehicle that is 75 pixels wide looks proportional, and would look good on a map with buildings. But a smaller vehicle would be needed on a world map. (Pictures courtesy of Nanikasira TKool)
Handling vehicles and world maps in this way allows a realistic look in your main maps but allows travel between cities in vehicles. Airplane/bus/subway travel could either be on the world map in a vehicle, or in a map used in a common event showing passengers seated on the airplane, etc.
*RTP Style? – While I have tried to keep my materials in an RTP style, it seems to me that part of the RTP style is tied up in the setting it represents – mostly pre-industrial and largely medieval. Big old blocks of stone make sense for that time period, but not now. Modern materials are less textured (look at some concrete walls, or adobe (in the South) or the manufactured trims and coatings. Modern homes may have multiple exterior materials (concrete foundation, siding, stone and brick all on one house!)
Modern homes have lots of broken roof lines (reverse gables) with tons of stuff like pipes and satellite dishes on roofs. There are small enclosures and equipment on the roof of commercial building.
And although RTP walls usually have heavy edges (big wooden beams, pillars, different colored bricks) I just cannot get over the fact that very few modern homes have accents like this (except ones with siding.) So I skirted that RTP style element a bit. I claim poetic license. =]
*Doors are preferred to be One and a half tiles high, but okay we can find other sizes too. =] But I think the 1 ½ size works best.
