I'm sorry I can no longer support the pack.

wow, i am very sad to hear that and i wish you would give me a chance to help you with your anxiety. because i believe that your tileset is the best one and DF would lack greatly without it. when Doren started working on in, it does not have the same feeling anymore. there is no even assembler. different vibe and everything. your pixel art is very canon to the world of dwarfs.

Gotta luv the internet.

Still looking for someone who can spell out which  differnt gfx modes/fonts I should be using and what they mean.

You might have more luck if, instead of hijacking existing threads focused on barely-related topics, you created a help thread.

You also might have more luck if you didn't insult the people who are trying to help you.

Sadly, I will no be able to update the graphic pack myself. I suffer from anxiety/dread issues, and working on this pack is one of my triggers (download GIMP and study the graphic files to quickly understand why.) I'm sorry I can no longer support the pack. I will visit/lurk once in a while, like I did for the past year, to keep up with what's happening with DF.

I'm sorry to here that mate. I'm the same way.

I encourage you to at least keep up with how the graphics pack is doing if other people continue development - from personal experience, exposing yourself to the source of the anxiety in a limited, controlled way can really help you make progress.

Keep fighting the good fight!

I love your graphics pack and used it since I started playing. I appreciate all the work and time you have put into it.

I hear you on the anxiety. It's some horrible crap to deal with.

Thanks for a great contribution to the DF community and I hope you can get ahold of the beast that anxiety can be and overcome it.

Health and happiness to you in the coming year!

Thank you for creating this graphic set. I learned Dwarf Fortress with it and it's been my all time favorite since then.

On that subject, yes you are free to add things to the graphic pack, or make your own version of the graphic pack. Most of the art in the pack has been, borrowed, from the community, and I've created to pack for the benefit of the community. Feel free to use or improve it as you wish.

Thank you for your job on the tileset, take care!

Thank you for creating the tileset! It's been my favorite for a while now. Be well and take care of yourself. Some people that are close to me have had anxiety, and found that therapy helped them develop coping strategies. I wish you the best of health and wellness.

Thank you for your great work with the tileset, Phoebus. Take care.

[Sozzals]

I mostly just lurk around the forums, rarely post, but I wanted to offer my personal gratitude to you for creating this awesome tileset.  Stay safe bro x

[migshark]

Thanks, Phoebus, for all your hard work. You've helped a lot of people gain an appreciation of a great game - rather like censoring the gore in a horror movie with rainbows and puppies, so that people with queasy stomachs can appreciate its spectacular plot line.

[SinsOfTheBothers]

Hey Phoebus! This might be my first actual post here, I'm not 100% sure. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know, this has been my absolute favorite DF tileset since I first started using tilesets. I wish you all the best.

[USP45]

Thanks Phoebus! (And everyone else who works on these kinds of experience enhancers.)

[RadGH]

Thanks for maintaining the tileset for so long. I've been using it for as long as I can remember. Your health and happiness should be your top priority and I'm glad you are taking an action to improve it.

You did not have to give us a reason of why, but I thank you for letting us know. I've seen many projects just get abandoned and it makes it difficult/awkward for someone to pick up the project. Hopefully someone will pick up the project where you left off and keep your tileset alive.

But if not, you'll still be a legend in Dwarf Fortress history! Thanks again Phoebus, happy holidays!

[Mokkun]

Phoebus, Thanks for all your work on the best tileset for DF out there.

[ghostwoods]

In the spirit of the winter season, I wish you all some happy goblin slaying and elf forest lava flooding!

Thanks for all the very, very hard work, Phoebus. DF is a stronger, better thing because of you. Be gentle with yourself -- you deserve it.
