tldr: I changed how tiles are displayed, in most cases it should look nicer now.

Edit: I'll add double size for the selected tile soon. I'll probably call that version 1.0 then and leave the program that way, unless errors are found.
....

hermano! It IS really nicer now. Some tiles of tileset are still shifted/moved by 1 pixel from original, but looks much better. Thank you for corrections in program you've done.

Spoiler: But if you want to know how tileset is dislocated... ;) (click to show/hide)

Also, if you have a time and inspiration, you can do some improvements, for example - ability to use colour scheme from init.txt - then tiles will appear the same color as in the game ^^)

But v0.62 is working just fine already! Thanks!!!

Thanks for your work, hermano! Excellent program!

The only thing I would to say is that picture of tileset and tiles of objects are some little diffused and looks blurry.. I think it's because base image of tileset is resized wrong by 1 or 2 pixels. If you correct this, then images in your program will be look much precise and clear. Thanx again.
P.s. Also, if you want, you can do 2x- or 4x-zoomed preview of selected tile.

All you do is fantastical great, RantingRodent!
Thank you for all you want to improve!
Im sorry, but I think that I can't express all of my thoughts about your questions because I dont know english well for this...

All I can say is that must be several highly-different sets/versions of your graphics. Keep developing up! We are all waching for your work.

DF Modding / Re: What is your gfx resolution?

« on: April 07, 2010, 04:41:14 pm »

Where is 1600?

There are many 4:3 monitors.
I have 1600x1200 pix 21"monitor. So max size of tiles for me is 20x20.

I'd like to have and to create/modify/improve 20x20 tileset, but I'm still use 16x16.
And if u gonna make a 21x21 tiles, then I wish you to do 20x20px exactly, to improve compatibility with all existed (1600 and 1680) monitors. Thanx.

I've really liked your tileset from the beginning, I hope you don't mind that I've been using quite a few of your tiles in my 20x20 version! The newest version of yours looks even better!

Thanx. But there is no "my tiles". They're "our" tiles now. I draw only few of them myself, others has been restructured, etc.. But I think that if I upload my art to network, then any of "my" information goes to be free for all. Because of this, anyone can do anything with this information (but not to sell it), so "my" tileset itself and artwork in it are absolutely free.

Use it. Enjoy it.

Of course, I planed to release .png-version as soon as DF been merged with 40d stuff and can normal work with png-tilesets. I'm standing by.
Maybe, I shall made two versions of Gold Plated tileset that will be contain different versions of walls. Maybe something else.
I'm almost fully satisfied with current version of Gold Plated tileset. So there can be some minor changes and tweaks.

If you think that some tiles need to be improved, tell it here. And try to post a screenshot of your fortress too. I'm interested.

Hi there again. I decide to build an installator for graphical version of DF 31.01 with my tileset.

This version includes:
- some improvements in tileset and raws
- dwarves, goblins, humans, kobolds and monsters from *Spsr*,
- animals from *Bane*
- elves from *Quantas*
- medics from *Phoebus*
- new walls from *Mimicrocodile-pixelart-kun*

Also thanx again to Phoebus. I could not make graphic sets work without raws from his "Graphic Set"... so I temporary use them.
p.s. Great work btw, Phoebus, keep it up.

Some screens of this version:
