Vix RPG Maker MZ Resources (updated 11/13)

Hello everyone! I've never really been an active poster here but I've been around (lurking) for more than a year already. I think the community is pretty awesome, I've learnt so much from a lot of people, and I thought this is a good moment to contribute back since there aren't that many MZ resources out there yet. It's nothing too groundbreaking but there might be something that someone could use! I'll update the post with more resources later, I hope you all like them!

More roofs added!

I somewhat felt that

of this roof do not look that good together so I made 2 roofs out of them :stickytongue:

(Full set added to the main post, just wanted to bump the post a bit xd)

Chimneys!!! :kaoluv:
Thank you.

I love how you fixed the roof! Good work :)

You’re very welcome! ^^


Much appreciated! ^^


Thanks for the feedback both of you, it's really encouraging! I'm not really used to share my stuff so some things might look weird or messy, hopefully I'll be able to get better in time :eswt:


Now for today's update:

Fireplaces, chandeliers, some random decorative stuff and flooring
Here are some examples of how can they look (after a bit of playing around with layers and events, for example, the first one on the second row -starting from the left- is made like this: fireplace on layer 2, picture on layer 3, flower pot on layer 4 and an event chandelier, the one next to it is a bit trickier, fireplace layer 2, pictures layer 3 and both the candle and the flower pot are events. Ok, I hope the explanation wasn't too messy haha).



Anyway, material added to the main post, there's a link to download all the files together in the update log :smile:

Hi! I love these. I have been trying to combine them with RTP tilesheets so I can use them and everything was going good, but there are 3 sets of autotiles that seem to change in terms of quality and appearance. Everything else I've copied looks exactly as it should. Below is a screenshot of your tiles circled and the matching ones inside GIMP after I moved them over.



Do you know what could be happening that is causing this? Again, all other grass/bush tiles have copied over perfectly. I've closed everything and reopened but I keep getting this. Any help is much appreciated. :)

Not Vix, but I am positive I can help you ;3
The RTP tilesets are indexed, which means the file has 256 preset colors and when added, those tiles are forced to only feature those. Use Image - Mode - RGB onto your tilset file before adding the new files and the problem should be solved.

And since I am already here: Those edits are super cute, I love the wooden floors and the curtains!

Thank you so much Avery! One more quick question I'm sure you have the answer to. On the RTP tileset below where I've drawn arrows - why is the file like this? the "Snow" in the bottom left appears halfway transparent. Then on the other half of the file it's got this darkened transparent look. When I export this as a PNG in GIMP and open the new PNG, these shades disappear (screenshot 2 around the fences and hole) except for the one auto tile I drew an arrow to where it is just entirely black. The "Snow" tile in the bottom left is just blank after exporting and opening the new PNG.

This is due to the file format - I worked my way around that by opening the files in paint.net or Photoshop and export it as a PNG, that fixed the issue, after that I could open them in Gimp without an issue. Paint.net is a free program and not the same as MS Paint, that is probably your best free option for this.

if you have more tileset related questions it's better to make a new thread just for that ;3

Thanks for uploading these! They look pretty sweet. Particularly your candles, fireplaces and campfire. I'm going to give some of them a go.

Wow, these look really good :) Thanks for making these!
