So after seeing the very familiar-looking Ultima Ratio Regum, the very first thing that struck me about it was its really nicely-done ASCII tileset (and colorations) and I thought "Hey, wouldn't it be cool if Dwarf Fortress looked like that, too?".
I wanted to make such a tileset myself, but I apparently lack any kind of skills necessary to pull it off successfully, despite having it basically served on a silver plate. And I had basically no idea how to figure out the colors to look like those used in URR.

So I stand here, asking you guys to "port" Ultima Ratio Regum's tileset to Dwarf Fortress (which is very much possible).
Optional change of colors is welcome, too.


I HAVE GOTTEN PERMISSION FROM URR'S DEVELOPER, AND ANYONE WILLING TO MAKE IT HAPPEN IS ALSO GRANTED SUCH RIGHT.

I think URR's colors are a lot more numerous than DF's; DF has only 16 while URR has... quite a few more.

If the colors cannot be reincorporated, then so be it...
I just want that sexy tileset to happen.

And I know you want it, too.

Hmm--looking at it, URR has a lot of tiles that DF doesn't--and vice-versa.
