seems liek  that game could use a hi-rez display tile map? I mean there’s probably less than 256 tiles total due to use of ascii….unless the colors matter then you need like a bunch of tiles or models or somthin….

visual c# would work great for that either with xna and usin models and 2d code (very flat square shaped models with 1 texture, can also zoom) or with the 2d platofrm startker kit or something

For emphasis, it all is relevant, but the YOU WANT BETTER GRAPHICS? FUCK YOU is the most relevant.

[kaijyuu]

You can zoom out if you want a higher resolution.

[Max White]

If you squint then the ASCII characters sort of blur together and it looks more realistic. Try that.

Where did that visualize button go? I mean, I know it was fairly useless, but it was mildly interesting I suppose.

interesting choice of languages considering DF is currently written in C++/C

Toady went from very good 3d, to 2d ascii graphics for a reason man.

: P
He doesn't want to focus on top-tier graphics.
Nor mid-tier graphics.

Wat is dis doing in "General Discussion" section? No dorfs allowed in this board.

If only there were people making something called a "tileset" you'd be set!

Instead you're crying out "Mayday".

On the Ironhand maybe you have a point. Phoebus only knows.

I'm going to signs you because that's the best wordplay I have seen on the forums, that was genius

[freeformschooler]

If you want high-res tilesets, there's a well kept secret to getting them. You go down to the dollar store and buy yourself a magnifying glass. No, I kid you not, it works! Just hold it up to the computer screen and look really close.

OMG I CAN SEE ALL TEH PIXELS

[Burnt Pies]

Doesn't that just show that it's photoshopped? I heard pixels mean it's photoshopped.

[RedKing]

Plus, you've seen quite a few shops in your time.

[Burnt Pies]

I have indeed.
