The new one looks more like a strange mask. The old one was perfect. Ah well, if I really want it I can edit it myself.
Your tileset is still awesome though. Thank you very much for all the work you've done.

I have been trying to fix this up.

Rejected (and current) dwarf soldier designs:
Possible new dwarf designs: Second from the left is a soldier tile.

At any rate, I'm in no rush. I'm not making any change to things for a while. I want to gather feedback on this before proceeding any further, as I'd rather end up at a solution that everybody thinks is an improvement.

I kinda' like #6 from the left :D I'd give #8 a close second.

Thanks for the feedback! Good job at responding, you managed to get in before I finished editing up my post (a bad habit of mine).

The new dwarf designs would definitely leave more room for awesome viking helmet spikes, like #6 from the left.

Playing around more with the new ideas for dwarf tiles.

Old and new soldier designs in both variations, with their current iterations beside them:

#7 here looks great, with #6 as my second. Why not make a poll?

See it's funny because I did the opposite. I hated the previous one and I would edit it into one of my more weird ones.

I like 1/2 as the ones that currently stand now. I did not like 3. 4 is a bit cluttered, 5 looks kind of interesting. 6 Looks like a miner's face. 8 Looks like cyborg ninja from MGS, while 7 looks like a winged mix of that.

In the double tiers, 1 looks a little mishapen. I like the 2, but the top one seems too short like only a mask, and the bottom one looks 3d in an odd way. 3rd column 2nd one is cute. 4th column not a fan.

In your next set, same thing for column 1 again, not a fan of 2, 3 is interesting, 4 is also interesting.

Thank you for the detailed analysis! I'll sit on it for a while. I don't really want to go back to the old one: I dislike it. Thank you again!

I doubt I'll get enough feedback for a poll to be worth it, and I doubt I'll get a consensus strong enough. I'll patiently collect feedback for a while. I like things as they are already, anyways. Thanks for your thoughts!

I just wanted to drop in and say this tileset is amazing!
I use this or CLA. After getting past it being ASCII I've never been able to go back to the image / icon tilesets.
Add to that the aweome colors, and this easily makes for my favorite pick.

I've played for a couple years, I've used many tilesets, congratulations on making the one I consider my favorite.
Thanks.

I'm happy that you like it. You're one of the first to compliment the colour schemes. I appreciate it; I worked hard on the Dawnbringer and the Taffer colours. I generally leave colour schemes to Vherid, but I wanted some nice defaults of my own included. I still love Tocky's colours.

I wasn't planning on uploading any more attempts at the soldier tile; I feel I have enough noise on the subject here already. That being said, this one turned out better than I had expected. I'm still uncertain if I'll be using it, however. I'll cease further uploads unless this one proves popular and people have suggestions. Its intended to be a dwarf wearing a skull instead of a helmet; it's even similar to its civilian counterpart.



In an unrelated note: I cleaned up the description and the previews. More work will be done towards getting some nice cover screenshots up after I've had time to play with the upcoming version. (I've been hoping for automated job selection for years now!)

Thanks for the laugh, and the criticism. Better?


I'm not saying it's a bad thing, just the first thing that comes to mind. That one is a bit weird. It looks both cool, and funny at the same time depending on how you see the eyes. I can see the little white dot eyes and it looks kinda cool, but I can also see the black dots as the eyes and then it looks silly.

Blatantly spamming my own thread with more soldier tiles. I think I'm on to a tile I like, however.
