I think you don't know about "show-twbt-override", which is a dfhack command that gives you the exact TWBT code for the tile you are looking at. Adamatine is indeed neither mineral nor stone wall. It might help.

Mac and Win TWBT shouldn't have any differences between overrides/materials.

Only FUNGIWOOD, etc should work, no need to tell it it has to be a plant_mat. I only used ::::PEAR for my test as well. No need for the empty : at the end either.

Does everything work now?

Btw, in future the walls will be directional, even the natural rock walls, so the layout for sprites might be more like this: https://i.imgur.com/VGYeaSr.png

show-twbt-override, does not seem to work in my DFhack. it says its not a valid command. Help!

Trunks, thick branches, Walls, Items, leaves and others work as I want it to with TWBT, its only Natural walls and twigs that seems to not recognize my material tokens. I have no idea why it doesn't work for me while it works for you, divine intervention i guess?

Custom script, you can copy it over from my set.

Once you update your pack and I can have a look at the files, I can probably figure out your natural walls.

I finally got it to work.

This seems to be the correct syntax:

[TILESET:Geology.png:Geology.png:_10]

[OVERRIDE:170:T:MineralWall:_10:0::::HEMATITE::]
[OVERRIDE:170:T:MineralWall:_10:1::::MAGNETITE::]
[OVERRIDE:170:T:MineralWall:_10:2::::LIMONITE::]
[OVERRIDE:157:T:MineralWall:_10:16::::MALACHITE::]
[OVERRIDE:157:T:MineralWall:_10:17::::TETRAHEDRITE::]
[OVERRIDE:157:T:MineralWall:_10:18::::NATIVE_COPPER::]

Two : at the end made all the difference

[vettlingr]

Okay. I finally finally figured it out!

For Real this time.

These are valid lines
[OVERRIDE:170:T:MineralWall:_10:0::::INORGANIC:HEMATITE:]
[OVERRIDE:170:T:MineralWall:_10:1::::INORGANIC:MAGNETITE:]
[OVERRIDE:170:T:MineralWall:_10:2:::::INORGANIC:LIMONITE:]
[OVERRIDE:157:T:MineralWall:_10:16::::INORGANIC:MALACHITE:]
[OVERRIDE:157:T:MineralWall:_10:17::::INORGANIC:TETRAHEDRITE:]
[OVERRIDE:157:T:MineralWall:_10:18::::INORGANIC:NATIVE_COPPER:]

But they won't show up on their own, probably due to a bug in twbt.

Hence I apply the following:
[OVERRIDE:169:T:MineralWall:0:169]
[OVERRIDE:157:T:MineralWall:0:157]
[OVERRIDE:170:T:MineralWall:0:170]
[OVERRIDE:136:T:MineralWall:0:136]
[OVERRIDE:137:T:MineralWall:0:137]
[OVERRIDE:137:T:StoneWall:0:137]
[OVERRIDE:138:T:MineralWall:0:138]
[OVERRIDE:171:T:FeatureWall:0:171]

The extra : at the end do nothing.

A typo in your native copper line, you got :: after the INORGANIC.

As long as you do less than 256 unique materials (there are about that many, if you want a sprite for each inorganic, 113 of which are gems), you can use tile numbers instead of material type.

I considered doing that, but the geology would turn out very weird in adventure mode. I think its better to use

[OVERRIDE:156:T:MineralWall:_10:0::::INORGANIC:ONYX] // specifies tile for onyx only
[OVERRIDE:156:T:MineralWall:_10:0::::INORGANIC:MORION] // specifies tile for morion only
[OVERRIDE:156:T:MineralWall:_10:0::::INORGANIC:SCHORL] // specifies tile for schorl only
[OVERRIDE:156:T:MineralWall:0:156] // null value override to make the above work.

Why would it change in adv-mode?

Why would it change in adv-mode?

TWBT is wonky in adv-mode, sometimes it refuses to redraw tiles, and anything shown in the z-level window up right is never redrawn.

common problem in twbt and one of the reasons why i don't play adv mode (at least not that often).
also it doesn't seem like it will be fixed anytime soon (if at all).

Now if I used tiles 0-255 for all geology overrides, this would appear as a mismash of random tiles from the basic tileset. Better to always stay clear of that abomination if it can be avoided.

so you'd have to use their "vanilla" numbers but inside a new .png and that'd at least have them not appear as random items, but as vanilla rock/wall, floor, stairs etc?
that'd be awesome!

I think he'll leave a base "inorganic" Sprite in the regular tileset (that adv-mode uses), while making fancier, unique sprites for fort made.

It's a good solution.

Seems like it works for farmable plants as well.

Next I'd try vermin. are they simply ":CREATURE:WORM:"? for material tokens?

[Meph]

I don't think overrides work on vermin, except for remains. But please try and let me know.

yay >_SCIENCE>_
