I'm not getting crashes at 64x64, and it looks better than the 32x32 tiles with the game's lanczos scaling.

24x24 doesn't crash either.

Should note that the game's zoom levels seem to be hard coded so no matter your tile size, these are the resolutions you get:

zoom level -	zoom pct. -	tile size
#0	50%	16x16
#1	75%	24x24
#2	100%	32x32
#3	125%	40x40
#4	150%	48x48
#5	175%	56x56
#6	200%	64x64

So a 24x24 pack would still look good at 24x24 and 48x48. A 20x20 pack would only look good at 40x40. No room in this world for a 9x9 pack or 18x18 pack, unless they change the 56x56 to 54x54.

Bad news. Getting crashes with 64x64 tiles involving creature graphics. I don't know exactly what triggers it, but switching body, hair, wearables, wieldables, and saddles back to 32x32 fixes it.

Excluding UI and world map, it looks like everything else can mostly be upscaled fine, except for a display issue when clicking on items like rocks and figurines:



More details about world map and UI issues:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

• higher-resolution world map tiles (the ones before embark) work but they are still displayed at their original size, so not much advantage unless it gets displayed differently on a 4K or HiDPI display. Mountain and forest tiles have display issues at different resolutions, though, so they need to stay 32x32
• portraits shouldn't be resized unless you are also resizing the BASIC_FONT at the same percentage as them, or else they won't look right (see imgur link at bottom for demonstration).

User Interface upscaling:

• UI - even though the size of the UI is linked with the size of the BASIC_FONT, even if you use the default BASIC_FONT, you can still get benefit from a higher-resolution UI if you use the upscale interface feature in the video settings.
• Don't change announcement alert size (they will overlap each other if you increase the size)
• Don't change moon weather size (won't scale the same as the rest of the UI)
• (not an exhaustive list of UI issues. needs more research.)
