Hmmm, on a hunch I grabbed a shot of your 16x16 one and sized it up a bit, I think I was a little overzealous with the transparency mask when I was removing the artifacts from upscaling it, but it turned out WAY better than any other attempt I made at a direct upscaling, the art style works wonderfully for it as I suspected.

I tried to pull my overrides out but I think I missed some, still though, it didn't look bad at 24x24, though I'd switch from the colors I was using, and of course try to clean up some of the shading I think I killed inadvertently.

Love the aesthetic you have going on, sorry about mangling it a bit, but like I said, it'll upscale easily.

Here's a couple more screenshots for you. I think this should be enough to give you an idea of what the tileset is all about.

Considering your kindness in posting screen-shots and your enthusiasm for diagonal walls... I created a 15x15 tileset for you. (I have found odd sized tiles tend to work a little better with diagonals) I threw it together at light speed so there might be some inconsistencies. Let me know what you think!

*Edit*

I also updated the other tilesets:

@Lemunde what's the color set you're using?

I like the tileset, btw

[Lemunde]

I can't remember exactly. I think it's from one of Vherid's sets. Either the warm one or one of the newer ones.

[buzzy613]

Oh, thanks. Also, sorry for newb but how do I install this with LNP?  (or anything really)

[Max™]

Save the image into df_linux/data/art or what should be a similar path if you're not on linux for some reason.

[Rogue Yun]

I don't know how to install it into LNP but I would guess one way would be that you would first set the LNP to one of the basic tilesets (No graphics).

And follow these instructions...

Best of luck!

I don't know how to install it into LNP

The Starter Packs contain the graphic sets in LNP/graphics folder. Place any new sets here (with the proper structure) an the launcher will autodetect them, and you can install them with the GUI. In this case I'd duplicate the ASCII set and edit it according to the wiki instructions.

Got it working, thanks all!

I don't have a lot of time tonight. But I would like to post what I have done so far quickly and hopefully get some more constructive criticism! Bring it on!

And this silly animated gif I made while I was sick!


Thanks for the feedback and support!

[Kynsmer]

You've got something that looks pretty unique and slick! Nice work.

Edit: Also, I love that silly gif.

Oh good lord what is wrong with you man! Had me hoping I could launch nobles at goblins with ballistas for a second... now I'm sad, despite the upbeat looking dorfs.

[Rogue Yun]

Thanks for the positive feedback! I appreciate it! And I was thinking what wonderful weapons nobles would make at high speeds.

Sorry I take so long between posts. I don't have direct access to the Internet.

I've made some minor modifications to help improve the 16x16 tileset. I'm sticking with the beveled walls at the moment. It seems to work best with trees and such. But if you think the sharper corners look better or have ideas on anything else I would love to hear them! If you have a better design or want to make certain modifications of any tile I would love to hear and see what you would change.

Here is an updated version.



You don't have to make these, but I recommend the following changes in your your data/init/d_init.txt file:

PILLAR_TILE:10

and

TREE_TRUNK_PILLAR:255
TREE_TRUNK_PILLAR_DEAD:255
TREE_CAP_PILLAR:255
TREE_CAP_PILLAR_DEAD:255

Trees and pillars look something like this:

I don't have time to update the first post.. I'm sorry. But feedback is always appreciated.
