Skyrim, meet Dwarf Fortress. You two should get along well.

Hi

Apparently you thought of this first. It's been a while since I played with your set (and I rarely bother with military lately), so I'd forgotten how your soldier tile looked. If I do end up using my tile I'll add your name to the credits, unless you'd rather not have me use it. Apologies!

I didn't mean you cannot use it, just noticed that they look similar 
Use it, it looks cool. And you don't have to credit me for a single tile, especially if you took it from skyrim

Dwarf tile is one of most important things in every tileset. Damn, i still remember how one of early Duerers was referred somewhere as "that one with squid in gas mask". So, i understand your intention to make new tile, you'll be more comfortable with.

But IMO, visor-themed warrior tiles were better than dwarves-with-skulls, being some kind of Taffer™ trademark. Anyway, choice is yours, since i'm playing mainly with Duerer, for obvious reason

howdey there fellow dwarfs!
this was my go-to dwarf fortress tileset of v34. i switched to v40 now (with PyLNP) and i can't get this tileset to work with the new version. it does'nt even show up in the PyLNP graphics options (nor does any other newly added (v40-compatible) tileset).

any hints? are tilesets of the old and new version completely uncompatible? i'd really like to use this one again ;-)

thanks for any help!

First of all, Here is most recent thread. No need to bump old ones
To solve your problem, try to take Grim from fricy's repo (here) instead of composing it yourself and put it in graphics folder of PyLNP.

Added: i assume this may be raws problem, means that you haven't added entire default "raw" folder to graphics/grim-fortress

Forgive the ignorant question, but I'm not sure I understand how this is for DF 4.19.

The instructions for the TWBT version, 0.6A, which says it's for 4.19 send me to a link to Dwarf Fortress with DFHack which is only 4.16 so far as I know. And the alternative non-TWBT version, 0.5B says it's for 4.16.

So what about this tileset is for 4.19? Or does 0.6A Just Work as a standard tileset without DFHack?

Just install everything with older DF and older DFHack. I have set 40.19 flag just to mark it as "new" + all the raws were taken from 40.19 DF (i was thinking, that there will be new tool for gelding, or smthng) and as far as i know they don't differ from any post-40.14 version. Added (40.14+) remark in topic name

@Rogue Yun and Clatch: True that CowThing have drawn awesome stepladder. There is 2 reasons, why it's not "volumetric" in Duerer:
1. I was under impression, that we will see stepladders as a siege equipment (and that means it shouldn't look same way as one, that everyone IRL use to gather plants)
2. Standing garden stepladder, i have drawn on my first attempt wasn't looking like something good and clear. While trying to draw it with same perspective, i ended up with tile, that was looking like compasses

So i don't know, maybe i'll try something later, now i feel ok about it. And thanks for advice and this sketch

P.S. Don't butcher DaVinci, i've heard he's good at modding 

Think that blue crystal should be produced simply out of raw adamantine (who said microcline?)
Also it will be good to have DEA sieges arriving after you start selling your valuable good to merchants

That's an interesting project 

Same here, it won't show 16x16 ASCII Tileset Updated 2014 11 24, 3 posts above

Duerer TWBT comes preinstalled on Macnewbie and Linux Lazy Newb pack. However, you should install it manually to Starter Pack for Windows. Thanks to fricy, there is a ready to use with PyLNP version of my tileset in his repo. Grab it here and drop in Graphics folder of Starter Pack

The Macnewbie version is definitely the way to go.  I guess I wasn't smart enough to install the TWBT version by hand.  All the dwarves looked like smudges.   I've been away for a few months.  I don't know how you keep improving this thing.

I feel like i should add very detailed installation manual to OP, because for me it was hard to understand how to install DFHack and TWBT first time. But now with Macnewbie i forgot it again
Currently i'm not working on Duerer — too busy again I have done several new things, but amount of work is too small for new release. Not abandoning it, but there may be no updates next month (or two, if i'll decide to join one interesting project)
