Description
This is an edit of the Diamondus tileset, which makes it into Emraldus. The description from there is pretty self-explanatory. I apoligize for the bad mask, and there is also one bug. Put the cave walls (the ones that were unmasked, and were used for interiors…) in Layer 5. They are COMPLETELY unmasked, and Jazz kind of “floats” on them when you put them in Layer 4, so, sorry for the inconvience. If anybody knows what the problem is, please tell me. Also, if somebody with a lot of experience would like to help me make a better mask, just send me a private message and I’ll email the tileset to you. I’ll give you proper credit, too. This took me about 5 or 6 hours spread across 2 days in all.

Diamondus seems to be a popular tileset for editing. Not counting different times of day, this is the fifth version I have.
COLORS: ICK. Pretty much everything is this horrible shade of green, including all the gems in the walls. What isn’t green is tinted green. The background looks terrible, the beehives aren’t all the same color, the blocks ARE, and there are transparency problems.
Pros: N/A
Cons: Icky icky icky.
Rating: 2.0
ADDED TILES: The author seems to have added a single line of tiles at the bottom. It consists of some hand-drawn letters saying this is by LabRatKid, and three alternatives to the Rabbits Stink sign, none of them in front of cave.
Pros: There are new tiles.
Cons: The new tiles are not all that useful, nor do they look very good.
Rating: 1.0
MASKING: Interestingly enough, the author chose to make his own mask, instead of keeping the old one and maybe editing it a bit. This was a major mistake. To put it bluntly, the masking is terrible. Everything is covered in jagged edges, a lot of masking overlaps into nearby tiles (for example, the main cave background has a solid part), it’s doubtful whether the vines will still work, the Diamondus Pole tiles are all messed up, etc.
Pros: No.
Cons: Yes. Admittedly this masking would be almost ok in an original tileset, but for a remake which is supposed to FIX bugs, this is unacceptable.
Rating: 1.0
OVERALL: This is not a paticularly good edit, as you’ll have noticed from the fact I have not been able to come up with a decent Pros section for any of the above factors. I can’t see any reason to use this.
Pros: N/A
Cons: It exists.

It’s EMERALDus, of course it’s green!! He’s a beginner, and everyone’s a rookie at some point! That’s okay!
I give it a five!

Good things:
rabbits rule signs
bad things:
this tileset was so easy to create, because you just “painted” diamondus to green and added some stuff in it.
