Oh oh, new walls?
Anyone mind posting a screenshot? I'm at work right now with no access to DF.

<Also posting to follow>

Hope the image isnt too large.. And no matter how I try and save it, the image looses quality.. Argh!

Win. My only gripe with this pack was the straight-edged walls.

Honestly, this pack has changed me from "Holy cow this game's ugly" to "Gosh I love my fat little dwarves."

Interesting design you got there too many stairs for my liking but nice enough. Also there is a diagonal version of the walls which might look a bit better on that screen.

That is the diagnal walls version! The floor above is a vast storage area, I find the extra stairs helps them get to/from the stockpiles faster.(though Maybe I should have done 3x1 stairs on the outer edges..)

I'm loving the new walls and floors too! Great job ironhand & phoebus! Only problem is now im so torn between the two packs :/

Notice the crate/"barrel"/%-tile in the stonewall next to the coffin, down in the middle. It's misaligned, too.

That is because I pasted the tomb in the picture from a different Z level using GIMP.. So the % are fine..

I'm exited to see all the great changes to this tileset and diagonal walls and all.. Though I'll stick to square ones I think..

Great work!

Step one: save the image as PNG.

Step two: Read my sig.

Cheers Japa, picture updated. It's a little better, though the file size is doubled!

Anyone else want to throw up some pictures of the beautiful tileset updates? I feel naked and alone!

@Baughn or Ironhand: Theres an issue with the TTfonts when you save an embark party where the cursor spacing is wrong, like it'll run 2 or 3 spaces ahead, so looks like you've added spaces.. hmm like:

2MINERS  _
2MINERS,1CARPENTER   _

when no spaces have been added.

And another one in the trade screen, alot of items prices and weights get offset by bad spacing and the weight symbol is a box. Let me know if you want pictures, could well be a known issue that cant be worked out currently though..

Hi, love this tileset! Finally started playing DF again after a long break, and there are so much to re-learn. Used to use MayDay's tileset, but will use this from now on. But I have a problem with it. Special characters like ò and é does not show up.

As you can see, they show up as a square, and one name there is totally cut off after the missing letter. Whenever there is something with that dwarf in the announcements, the entire line is gone. Anyone know how I can fix this?
I tried my save both in my "tileset only" folder of DF, and a newly downloaded "full download". Can it be a file I need to fix in my save? I do not know much about tilesets, so all help is appreciated really.

I also like this tileset quite a bit - the colors and geometry of it are preferable to others I've found. It does have a couple of downsides, however. First can be seen in Durandir's post above - in some lists, whichever entry you have selected is blanked rather than highlighted. The second is snow - it's black and makes me see penguins waddling through drifts of volcanic ash. Otherwise, this is spot-on.

Replace all language_*.txt files, it should fix it.

Is there a purpose for the tile in row 3, column 1 in the tileset? It's just a black box. It makes certain text have annoying black spaces between them. I edited it out, it looks fine and I'm not noticing any ill effects.

That would be the space tile. It's used everywhere in the game.
For some reason Ironhand decided to make the tile pure black instead of transparent. That I do not understand why.
I always keep that tile with the same background as letters for the reason you listed.
Your action should not cause any problems.

[schussel]

just as we do say in krautland: "Ironhand und Phoebus, IHR SEID GEILE SÄUE!!!"

i even reconfigure the new diagonal version again to just play 30 min

yay

This is a bug in libgraphics, which was fixed in .26

Oh, right. Yeah, it should just be empty.

Thanks for the catch. It'll be updated for the next version.


Eeeeeeeeee, I can't wait for .26! It's gonna be so awesome.

Was fixed? .26?
Suddenly, I'm jealous.

Ah, I see. Thanks for the info. Waiting for .26 then
