That's right

That is right

All I have to say is that maybe in the higher grass densities, we could use a solid grass color background. That way it looks like a carpeted grass . Just a thought.

The higher grass densities might more require that they fill the square up more.
I've tweaked the grass since then and I think it fills up quite nicely. Do note I as a human am not very capeble of mimicking the paterns DF, and above that stonesense will make, so in the end it'll be a bit more random.(is using tiled to make these images)

In the end though, having grass-tiles underneath the denser grass wouldn't be too much of a problem with the current capabilities of stonesense.

yeah, my point was that you could just do whatever number of sprites you want, and they can be used appropriateley.

Oh, okay, alright then

That's looking pretty sweet wig

Thanks :3

I agree, that's some nice grass, especially done so dern quick.

[Rose]

oh, by the way, just remember that, should you want to, the grass can be animated.

[Rose]

alright, got grass to load in stonesense. now to get the tiles to show.

[Rose]

progress!

[Deon]

This is so awesome that I am afraid I could be sleeping after the night of modding and it's not real...

[Rose]

okay, on the SVN, there's a build with semi-working grass tile support.

things not working, that I know of:
Ramps.
Grass colors.

also, if anybody wants to make colors for the various grass types, feel free.

Addendium: I plan on supporting two distinct methods of specifying grass tiles.

Method 1 (currently implemented): as a separate tile, much like trees and bushes.
Method 2 (Not yet done): As an additional sprite layer on existing ground tiles.

method 1 allows for tall grass, like the ones already drawn.
method 2 allows for grass that forms to ramps, etc.

you will be able to use either, or both, but just remember that #2 has limits to how tall the grass can be.

I just had an eyegasm.

Fixed some bugs, now it's better.



funny thing about the grass in DF.

a single tile can have 5 types of grass on it, but DF will only show the first one, so I decided to mimic that.

[Deon]

Oh, I like the less saturated look much more!

[Footkerchief]

Holy FUCK that looks good.  Amazing work, therahedwig and Japa.

A little bit more contrast could help to seperate the grass leaves from each other.

[rephikul]

to be honest I like the old bright grass representation. This thing look more like some swampy pits.

I have not idea why, but here: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=43260.msg1990956#msg1990956 grass looked a bit better.
