Screen painting
« on: October 30, 2009, 10:00:22 am »

Is there any way of actually painting a DF scene outside of the program, tile by tile? I need this as I do not have the patience to simply wait for the right scene to occur in the game and save it, and this way I am allowed more freedom.

Could you explain what you mean?

I can't think of a better way other than doing it all by hand.

Ascii Draw nor DFPaint works for me. Is there possibly an alternative?

What I mewant was that I need a painting program that utilizes tiles instead of pixels, and lets me paint a DF-esque scene. I need trhis because some things I wish to convey just aren't feasible in DF.
