Could someone please write or link a step by step guide to installing this set of graphics into vanilla DF 43.05 for Windows?
You actually need to do 2 things:
- Update Phoebus to the new version (or wait for someone else to do it)
- Install Phoebus
To update phoebus, you need to know
a)
which raw files the phoebus tileset changes to look as intended (i.e. you compare 43.04 vanilla raws with 43.04 phoebus raws) and
b)
which files were changed by toady between 43.04 and 43.05 - if any (i.e. compare 43.04 files with 43.05 files).
Then you apply the relevant vanilla changes (from .04 to .05) to the phoebus raws. You also need to look out for changes in the data/init/init.txt, by the way. Best starting point is
file changes.txt in the vanilla DF directory - it's Toady's detailed changelog.
For example, comparing 43.04 to 43.05, you might notice a new crop could have been added to plants_standard.txt (or whatever it's called): You'd need to copy that entire entry from 43.05 to the phoebus raws.
Or, a tool had its properties changed. The Phoebus tileset might assign a different tile to that tool, so you'd need to copy the new item properties to the phoebus raws, without changing the modified tile back to default.
Installing after this is trivial: Just drop the copy of phoebus in your fresh vanilla DF installation and overwrite files when prompted. Then generate a new world and play.
