I've started making a hand-drawn tileset for use with 40d13+, taking advantage ofthe zoom and alpha channel features.

everything is hand-drawn, and looks a lot like it was made with a pencil.

it's far from done, but I thought I'd post some screenies:

Urist McMiner, toiling away. he needs more work


A babbling brook. I'm quite happy with the look of the water.


More water, and soil. the transparency really helps here.


Tanners' shop.


OH MY GOD!! What does that butcher DO?!?!? I swear, that horrible intrument of death was entireley an accident. (but quite cool)

Excuse me while I pick my jaw up from the floor.

This is stupendous! Amazing! Wonderful!

Keep up the good work, this is great!

[Kiberkiller]

Looks pretty interesting, i'd rather see a HD pixel graphics but this tileset may look very interesting when it's done

[CoolMatthew]

Very nice!

I kinda suck at pixel graphics, hence this tileset.

ant thanks for the encouragement.

[CoolMatthew]

I really can't wait to use this!

[carebear]

Wow, I thought it wasn't possible to do this. Looks great!

[ArkDelgato]

So, who's investing on a fog machine and a HD projector?

[NKDietrich]

Amazing!

[ILikePie]

Wow, I thought it wasn't possible to do this.

Same here, the tiles are 10 kinds of awesome.

WAIT SO THERE IS A ZOOM FEATURE NOW


WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTT

I'm doing something wrong!
How to get tiles that big in the game? Mine are resized back to 16px (

[Neruz]

Yes Mayday there's a zoom feature now, it was introduced in D13 i think.

If i recall D14 automagically works out the tile size, so if you give it bigger tiles, it should automagically make the view more bigger in-game.

[Eidalac]

D14 auto figures the grid based on window size, but ATM it has issues zooming in (which they have a fix for, but that'll have to wait till D15).  With D13 you can zoom in on any tile set no problem (least that I'm aware of).

[Mike Mayday]

Ah, so that's why I wasn't able to zoom in properly. Thanks.

EDIT: Nope, playing d13 with a 32x32px tileset and still no zoom-in possible (beyond 16x16 tiles that is).

EDIT2: LORDY, I am getting insane! This is a function I've been waiting for for over a year and I can't get it to work!! D:

EDIT3: okay, I am able to zoom in but the horizontal amount of tiles stays 80 (so 16px horizontally, sometimes more vertically) which is NOT GOOD AT ALL

Honestly, trying to use any of the new 'enhanced' versions causes tremendous problems for me. I've never seen DF crash before I tried out the new versions, so I'm back to Toady's last release instead.
