And thus "Weekend at Urist's" startedIt would be hilarious if a mortal npc attempted to flirt with the undead, only to realize their mistake too late, or the undead got outed because someone tried to grab their hand and realized they're dead coldOr, even funnier, the undead is so good at keeping up the facade that the two court, get married, and spend several years together before the mortal figures it out.
There is an internal discussion about showing things like individual limbs (for injuries) and how many different sprite-parts we can use (number of layers that are baked into one sprite) without making it too resource intensive. For now the focus is on improving the vanilla system, once that is done I can pester Toady a bit about mod support.
That being said, forgotten beasts should use correct sprites for their limbs, wings, etc, so I think at the very least, the basis should be there. Even if mifki has to TWBT-magic it together in the end for us modders. ^^
I've been messing around with items lately and I had a stupid dwarf idea: What if furniture/items have "varied tiles", just like floors? Players could pick if they have 1 sprite or 4 sprites (and possibly cycle between them, to keep the symmetry if they like it).
Minor variants of the same objects, like these cabinets, coffins and beds.
Just want to know what you guys think, this is probably nothing that will happen in the first release, but for example it's possible right now with TWBT.
I like the first version
Have you seen those?
Dude you're overdoing your critique. If steam tileset looks that bad for you then make a new and better tileset when steam version is live. Actually you can start making it right now, so your tileset will be up for the steam release.Mike Mayday has also improved them greatly since that picture was posted.
that make no sense on you picture at the point where the dwarf stands is only 1 block !
and this block is one level high
the ramps are also 1 block long i dont know but this is to extreme it makes no sense visually because when you dig an 1 block wide corridor you hafe 2 ramps from both sides that stuck together
pls make an 1block corridor with the graphic option you tested and you can see it for yourself
I was wondering if trees could be smaller and doubled by four.
It would change a cartographic style a bit to make more sense in scale-wise. Right-now those trees won't give me an impression of real forest, they are more like small park. They also make mountains look too small.
What do you think about something similar instead?
