So here's goofing around I did with this script in an attempt for an outdoor map... I think the shrubbery/undergrowth needs a little work but I was wondering what people thought of it... And I wanted to thank RobA for the script...
It certainly has a lot of potential. I'm assuming it generates random shapes that you can use as the forest. The pattern is tiling but what's important is the shape gen thing.

It's actually just a bit to render solid noise at the beginning, then crank the contrast all the way up, and run a displace on it... then run robA's script with a grass pattern and forrest pattern of preference (I forgot to make the forrest pattern seamless in the sample)
I thought if a) I could get a better forrest pattern squared away, and b) people liked what they saw... I'd write a mini tut...
Not to be picky, but what I was actually hoping to accomplish was making the walls AND the floors transparent. This would allow for the ability to build up a tile set with nothing but the walls to give the feeling of depth and drop their own favorite pattern underneath. Granted, I will likely only use ones with the walls already filled in, but it would be a nice option to be able to drop transparent tiles with just the walls/shadows on top of an existing texture somewhere.

I don't know what you mean. SorryOriginally Posted by jfrazierjr
No wall fill at all? I guess you could either turn off that layer or use a transparent pattern as a fill...

yes, no wall fill at all. The hope was to be able to turn off wall fill while using the batch processor to be able to quickly get numbers of images as above quickly without having to do each manually.

OK.
The simplest thing is to create a pattern that is fully transparent, and select that as the wall pattern fill. Then it will do what you want.
Just create a new image, erase everything in it, make a selection and copy then paste as pattern and it will be accessible in your pattern list.
(Technically, the same could have been done for the no floor option as well, but I wasn't thinking that way...)

Oh.. duh.. thanks RobA... sometimes the simplest solution is the most overlooked..

Hey! I'm new to these forums, but I LOVE this script. However I'm having one problem. I can't seem to change the look of the walls or floor no matter what I do! I'm fairly new to Gimp, but I'm not incompetent. I must be missing something but I simply can't get my textures off of those default gray ones, please help me out!
