rc tilesets (legible pure ASCII)
« on: August 23, 2018, 03:16:43 am »
Probably i should post here too.

I've experimented a bit with default DF tileset, and the outcome was rather nice looking. If someone's in need of clean ASCII tilesets give it a try.

Thank you!

I've been looking for a good 15x15 (fits my screen perfectly) that looks close to the vanilla, but is crispier.

Very nice tileset!

i love it. I use r15x18 for twbt and r11 as main font

I dont know whether thats a good way but I like the faces most. A modern version of Lord Nightmare Cherry IBM 8x8.

Love the tileset, but... how would I go about making the faces more 'default' rather than evil looking?

Your tileset is the only ASCII tileset I've found that looks good on my 1920x1080p screen. It isn't horribly zoomed in, seems to be ASCII rather than simply based on ASCII, and other than my taste in regards to the smileys I'm loving it so far. I honestly don't understand how I haven't heard of this tileset before.

It's barely a year old, and never was promoted, so no wonder. Feel free to edit anything you dislike, or email me with your requests, and i'll send you back fixed files.

Changed brown color in the colorscheme due it's poor performance on dark backgrounds. To get updated replace this section

#brown_bramble_variation_592804
[BROWN_R:89]
[BROWN_G:40]
[BROWN_B:4]

with this one

#peru_tan_7f3a02
[BROWN_R:127]
[BROWN_G:58]
[BROWN_B:2]

in your data/init/colors.txt file

You are welcome, and good luck to you in your adventures. Hopefully i could help and make it more enjoyable.

In the meantime i am comtemplating some new and yet vague concepts, as the current achievments are seem to be more or less perfected. However, i'm not convinced that pushing classic-retro-character-based ideas is worthy. Need in such solutions never was substantial, and the upcoming graphical revolution may further lessen it.
