Trying it out, and for the most part, good stuff. the "Noise" around stuff is a little over the top, I like it, but a moderate reduction of it would make it much easier to look at.

Trees need thicker trunks though.

I like the style I may have to change from just basic DF to this I'm not sure

New version is up.  Added wall variants, a readme, tweaked the floors a bit, the Classic variant, and because you called now, a nifty soundtrack too.  Double thanks to Kevin Macleod.

I tweak trees in the next version.

Not sure why but the new version doesn't work at all.

Was there sufficient change to require a Re-gen?

I actually just tried to run the new version, and I'm getting an error stating, "One of the compressed files on disk has errors in it. Restore from backup if you are able."

I fiddled around and got the tiles working without the raw changes, but haven't done any more research yet. I've still got the old version that I'm gonna try now. [edit]Scratch that, apparently the one I had downloaded earlier was also the new one. Oops.[/edit]

Oh, and one possibly important bit of information: I'm running the Windows 7 RC, so it could have something to do with that....

Hmm, tried DLing it myself, the zip seems intact and good-to-go.  WinZip seems happy, but no time to do a dry run, got to sleep after a long game of 1k Blank White Cards.  Tomorrow, then.

Im getting the same error as Choco, it doesn't kick in until you try and start a game, so the tile set works for the most part. as the opening anims show up and the title screen has no errors. I usualy try to alter the init as little as possible because I'm pretty much clueless when it comes to how it works. so ya I have no further information, just a second instance of the same error.

I hope you don't mind that I stole your letters :). I like the "sand" around letters but it really distracts when you play for a long time. I use an altered Isenhertz tileset and now I use "clean" letters from yours. I just love there letters.

I will credit you in the description.

Okay...tried it and it seems to work fine on my end.  Hmmm...well, reorganized the files into proper folders and resubmitted the zip.

Try that?

@Deon: yeah, of course.  EDIT: Btw, the latest version does include the Lite variants, which have no gritty background.

Yeah, I see. I just want fish/vermin sprites I did and I prefer some of Isenhertz tiles more so I combined them. Your letters are awesome, the best I've ever seen. They look runic/dwarfish enough while staying easily readable.

P.S. The main problem for me in your tileset are trees, they are hard to distinguish from grass/bushes and I am not used to top-down trees in general, I prefer them to have an isometric view. Other than that, I highly approve and adore this tileset.

Looks wonderful except for all the inexplicable static behind letters.

The 'static' is intentional to allow the alphanumeric characters that are used in the map to blend with each other as well as the map.  I personally like it as it gives the lettering a sort of engraved look, which to me seems rather dwarfy  ;)

You can always use one of the 'Lite' variations of the tileset to get clear letters btw.
