hi there

looks really cool, but i always get the error "one of the compressed files has errors in it" when i try to use it. other tilesets work just fine. am i missing something?

thanks

hi

I have never seen this error.  When do you see it?

as soon as df tries to display some tiles (simple text works)... like loading a save or genning a new world or embarking...
it must be this set cause without it everything works fine. im using 40d7

The solution: get someone whose using the tileset to upload their entire copy of DF for download, and take theirs.

Cut me down like a tree like the lumber or weeds, well discard who you please like the leaves off a tree. Drag me out of the sea and then teach me to breath. Give me forced health till I wish death on myself. Ah! Ha! Ha!

Did you try to use the images I've posted in this thread, or the version on DFFD?

I'm done working on this for today, so here's my current progress on the elves.  I've taken Sphr's WIP military elves and spruced them up, and done a large percentage of the jobs as well.

I'll look into releasing a pre-packaged install on DFFD when I make my next update (probably tomorrow morning or Tuesday at the latest)

"whatever, robo-jesus" is my favourite quip of the year.

I like your king and queen much better than mine, do you mind if I use them?  There are a couple of others that I like better as well (my Dungeon Master still needs work), but the nordic style means they don't quite match the rest of the set.

I've included the Hammerer for use by any Human Fortress mods.   I've never tried it, but I would  assume that there's something equivalent to the Hammerer.

With these sets I am also trying to keep  in mind the possibility of encountering the descendents of prisoners in roles that their species normally cannot fill.
Sure.

I revamped the military elves significantly.  Please let me know what you think.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I've decided that I will be designing the elves to reflect a society where hair is tied directly to social status.  All elves are naturally blonde, and hair dyes are fairly rare, so unnatural hair colours will reflect higher status.  Longer and fuller hair will also reflect higher status.

I'm thinking the elf King will have flowing red hair filling most of his tile.

Toady typically doesn't do things by half measures.  As evidenced by turning "make hauling work better" into "implement mine carts with physics".
There are many issues with this statement.

I will immediately admit that I am a complete newbie with respect to DF..

Having said that, I'm having a bit of trouble getting this pack to work fully.  I've changed a couple settings in the init file (mainly turning on graphics)...copied all the files in the download into the appropriate folders...but I still see all the 'accent' characters instead of most of the graphics.

Any help for a neophyte?  Failing that, I'll just play the barebones game until the pre-packaged install comes along.

RantingRodent:  I love your work.  That may not seem like impressive praise given my relative newness - but I've quite a bit of history playing the whole 'rogue' series of games with and without graphics packs, so at least in that arena I have a bit of experience ;)
