Icons, like ASCII but prettier.

Hand-drawn, like an old-timey sepia map.

Full graphics, like JRPGs with full-on sprites.

Same as the tileset ingame. Forests would use the tree sprite, mountains a rock sprite, etc.

Other. Please post your ideas/examples.

Hey Meph, if you have a second to help, maybe you can help me figure this out, why the corpses do not work when trying to use your tileset.

Here you can see that the creature uses the tile 1 without any caste tile or alttile assigned:


Here's the override for the corpse, copied from your #humanoid one:

Code: [Select]

[OVERRIDE:1:I:CORPSE:CORPSE::_MDF_overrides_13:R:8:152:153:154:155:156:157:158:159:16] #dwemer based on humanoid one

Here you can see that a corpse next to me looks like a tile 1 (dwarf) instead of the override:


Any ideas are highly appreciated.

[Meph]

Deon, I will always be happy to help you, without your Genesis mod I wouldn't have started modding.

Corpse overrides do not work on civ-members, because the corpses have a special tag (to be stored in corpse stockpiles and buried in coffins) instead of being treated like items (like animal corpses that are brought to the refuse stockpile and butchered). It's stupid, I don't like it, and it should be a thing of the past once the Steam version is out.

[Deon]

Ah, but that explains a lot. So I am limited to assigning civ corpses to tiles in the main tileset, gotcha. Thanks a lot!

[Meph]

Btw, have you seen the bronze/copper material sets? The steampunky design might be useful for the Dwemer mod.

[Garfunkel]

Should I wait for update to 47.04 version? I haven't switched yet from the 44.x version to the new stuff.

[ZayZe]

I'd wait, Meph said he was gonna work on it.

I heard 47.03 has some game breaking bugs in it.

so... I'm just waiting for 47.04

Hey Meph, I was about to add the more leather mod to your V5.5 for my own use and I see your [MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:SKIN_TEMPLATE] is already different than vanilla 47.XX. Before I screw things up, can you tell me if more leather mod will interfere and cause me problems?

******************** the instructions I have followed before, successfully with vanilla 47.XX *********************

hello i have made a mod that allows you to get more then 1 piece of leather from butchering animals.
to install it ad this to [MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:SKIN_TEMPLATE] in the  material_template_default file in your raws
Quote
   [STOCKPILE_GLOB]
        [DO_NOT_CLEAN_GLOB]
   [BUTCHER_SPECIAL:GLOB:NONE]
   [REACTION_CLASS:SKIN]

then replace your [REACTION:TAN_A_HIDE] in your reaction_other file with this
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
[REACTION:TAN_A_HIDE]
   [NAME:tan a hide]
   [BUILDING:TANNER:CUSTOM_T]
   [REAGENT:A:150:GLOB:NONE:NONE:NONE][REACTION_CLASS:SKIN][UNROTTEN]
      [HAS_MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:TAN_MAT]

   In the product, if you want to use the reagent's material itself, use NONE instead of a reaction product class (TAN_MAT in this example).

   [PRODUCT:100:1:SKIN_TANNED:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:TAN_MAT]
   [SKILL:TANNER]
   [AUTOMATIC]


this way like fat the amount of skin globs you get from an animal is equivalent to its  size so bigger animals = more leather

this mod is not well balanced yet and you may want to fidle with the number of required globs required for the reaction
ypur free to incorporate this into your own mods just dont forget to give me credit

Gday, love the work. Feel guilty for asking but is there any way to turn off boxed capitalization in the written text? Just strains
my eyes a touch. Cheers

Sure. Just open the launcher, there are about 2 dozen font to pick from.

Uthimienure, that should be no problem. 600 is a good number instead of 150. I use the same setup in Masterwork DF, it's quite useful.

[TerminallyBeard]

Fonts... ahem right, I knew that   
Thanks man

[Uthimienure]

Thanks for the info Meph, I've been a big fan of MWDF for years and greatly appreciate your work 
I'll try the 600.

Can anyone help me I assigned my war dogs to the military and sending them to raid a goblin fortress after that I noticed that my war dogs won't follow their owners in the fortress but will follow if I send them to raid is this a bug ?

[Deon]

Hi Micon, is it specific to a situation when you have this tileset installed only?

[micon89]

Hello Deon sorry I'm not really good at English but what I mean is that I assigned my war dogs to my dwarveswho is in the military
Then I send them to a raid the dogs will follow and then after the raid, they comeback to my fortress. And then a siege came when I station my military dwarves their pet war dogs won't follow to join or help them to fight they just sitting around in my meeting area. I currently using meph tileset v5.5 47.03

[Meph]

I don't think anything about the tileset could affect the AI behaviour of trained animals.
