Hey Meph,

Loving the new tileset. It's like playing a whole new game. Two minor complaints though:

1) Ores and gems are too hard to see. It's not clear at a glance what is rock and what are ores.
2) The walls and ground sometimes look too similar when digging out rooms.

Similar problem, generally sands sands seem to have 2 floor images, one makes itself visible against the wall, the other is the same as the wall.

Amostubal, Lithandrill: PLEASE make screenshots. I thought rocks/ores are very different, the ores have icons on them.

I noticed that priority numbers for designations don't show up and leave a black tile instead.
As a margin note i think the colors (e.g. for the grass) are too dark... i had to change color regulation on pc screen to see properly.

P.S.
in the dfhack laborsheet it is impossible to see if a work is assigned or not

The number is actually there but it's very dark. If you use a brighter color sheme they are more visible but still not very good.

What i miss are colored mincarts, tracks and trackstops (they are simply black) same for bins which are also simply black squares and maybe that pots seem to look more like a bed.
Also Cinnabar and Hematite ore look nearly identical and are really hard to differentiate.

Ah! Easy fix: I have no transparency on the numbers. Once I make them a bit transparent, you will see the designations. :)

This is perfect, Meph! Really detailed and characterful, but crisp, clear, not at all noisy, and all nicely differentiated and easy to tell apart. Everything I'm looking for in a graphics pack!

Is your screen resolution at least 2560p wide?

2560x1600

Plus a smaller second monitor

Any ideas on this?  Or other information I should provide?  I know you need detailed reports.  I just don't know what information you need.

Maybe people should love for the sake of loving, and not with all of these optimization conditions.

Do other tilesets work? Does TWBT usually work on your machine? Did you try another print-mode in the init?

Usually if its a crash caused by third-party utilities, there is not much that I can do. :/

@Meph
All screenshots posted in Shielgates thread use your tileset. I know resolution isn't the best, i'm still trying to figure out why (probably some problem with file hosting or the way i upload it). If you need any screen in particular i'm happy to oblige.

Few nitpicks.
I've created game on Windows, and then copied it to play using Linux version.
There were two problems with tilesets, as Windows has case-insensitive filenames:
1) graphics\wannabehero_DDD\DDD_Creatures_16px.png - should use lowercase 'c' in 'creatures'
2) graphics\phoebus\Skaven.png - should use lowercase 's' in 'skaven'

Also, different Thumbs.db files use ~7.5Mb of 19 in graphics directory - you probably want to remove them before packaging.

Sorry for posting the stuff in the wrong spot.  I didn't realize the tile-set in Masterwork was different from the one in vanilla.

My reports will be moved here:

So I took a look through a two year old fortress and these were the main things I noticed.
-Seeds (black tiles)
-Bookcases (black tiles)
-Bins (black tiles)
and a lot more, but I'll have to continue when I've got more time.

Performing or telling a story seems to use the bush tile, similar to the children playing one.  Might want to check on that, unless everyone is telling stories about the recent am-bush.

Note: This is all after generating a new world with the tileset.  I didn't just plop it into an existing save.

RE: Adventure Mode
The sneaking indicator indicates an enemies line of sight when the adventurer is sneaking.  Since the tileset doesn't include those line of sight tiles, it renders sneaking utterly worthless.  Alongside sneaking, I noticed that tracking was broken as well.  Things like speech bubbles, swords and armor pieces being used for the tracks.  It also turns out that building is broken.  The entire screen just appears black, with no indication of what you're building.

so here's my stock of images, from a new dwarf fort:

1. immediate first thing... Black is great but not when your designating things... I am confused as to what these are, some are designations for remove ramps and others are digs.  In addition similar issue when marking, they are just black when designating:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
of course as soon as you exit the designate menu you can see the blue marks if they are not on a revealed square.  Here's a zoomed out image of a planned digsite while in designate menu, no blue, no numbers (all 7 priorities were used to verify the effect):
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
and same zone when out of designate menu... be aware part of the right is a planned mark zoned that isn't blue because its revealed squares:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

2. Tetrahedrite and magnetite have same/similar image to the point that you can't distinguish them.  This image has a vein of tetrahedrite coming from the left entering an oval vein of magnetite on right.... It runs all the way through:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

3.  Ores that look like dots... generally I'm use to these images to be vermin running around eating my food, these are cobaltite and sphalerite. Mined gems are bigger images then the ores:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

4.  Cursor disappears behind up/down stairs.  When designating, a carved up/down stair will block the view of the cursor, as if the u/d stair is on a higher level of rendering then the cursor.  Can't cut this image... it would just be u/d stairs, lol.

5.  Sand walls are so similar to sand floors that unless your zoomed in you can't see the difference.  This image is TAN_SAND in prospect, i assume its the raw name too:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

6.  black squares for wood minecarts sitting on black square trackstops...  I've not taken a pic of this, I don't use moving minecarts very often but I do use them for quantum stockpiling...

I'll play through a little more then drop another set of images as I come across any more issues.
