Hey all.

I was wondering if anyone knew where or if there currently exists a 16x16 tileset that uses the standard 640x300 DF tileset.

I am a big fan of the original tileset but I do not like the rectangular nature of it.

As I'm not a great artist and I don't have the best skills in paint programs, I can't really make one myself =(

Again, I just want the standard DF tileset (circular smiley face dwarves) in a square font with a slightly higher resolution.

Anyone know of this exists to any extent?

Thanks guys.

Scroll down to "Sappho", or perhaps "Tyrving".

Kaishakus also looks like the original.

I believe there actually is a 16x16 tileset included with the game. just look it up in your folder and change the init.

He wants the circle-faced dwarves, guys (which IMHO, was a wierd request)

Well, you should be able to do it with Paint. Just zoom in to the included tileset and add like a gray shading to anything you want shaded. It doesn't require much skill and certainly less than an hour.

Or if you're lazy, you can look through the list and copy/paste/mix the ones you do like.

It doesn't require much skill and certainly less than an hour.

I spent about ten or so hours converting the default tileset to a well-rounded 16x16 and another several dozen hours touching it up.
Here's the tileset:

I'm still working on it.
I do use some special characters, but they look odd very rarely.
Note that the game doesn't use all 256 characters. I'd guess there are around a dozen unused.

Thanks Savok! That one is great!
