This is really outstanding!

[Cymsdale]

This is very nice work. In the ASCII vs graphics debates I've tended to fall on the ASCII side, but this convinced me to make a change.

I guess my problems with most graphics is they always try to look too "busy". I prefer a the simple color+symbol representation of ASCII, and your tileset maintains that feel while also looking nicer.

My only criticism is the skull tile, it kinda clashes with the rest of the set.

Bump, this awesomeness needs more love.

[Nabobalis]

Can't wait for this to work in the new DF but now need a 24*24 graphical set to go with it.

[Deon]

There's 16x16 version too.

Possible the nicest tileset I've seen, might have to switch from guybrush to this when .31 supports transparency. My only concern is what some of the names look like as you have graphics for lots of the tiles.

Thanks The graphical tiles should not interfere with text at all, as I retained the characters with accents instead of replacing them by graphical tiles as other tilesets do

Bis, would you mind if I remade this for a 20x20 tileset? Here's what I have so far:


Do you per chance have non-graphical versions of the symbols you remade into graphics?

Why not use the 24x24 tileset instead?

[Mike Mayday]

because my monitor only displays 1680px vertically.

1680px vertically? that's huge!

[Mike Mayday]

UGH! Serves me right for writing at 1:30 AM... I meant horizontally of course.

I think that downscaling the antialiased symbols makes them look very blurry...
I should probably create a 20x20 version myself, because I created most symbols using Photoshop paths (My monitor's resolution is 1920x1200, thus a 20x20 tileset would result in a 96x60 grid, could be fun... 16x16 is too tiny for me)
However, I don't have non-graphical symbols of the graphical tiles

[Mike Mayday]

If you could upload the paths that would be sweet

I made a mod of your 16x16 tileset for my tileset, this is the v2.1 of those changes:
Changes:
Uppercase letters: height +2px.
Lowercase letters: height +2px & width -2px.


You can clearly see the lowercase changes between the normal lowercases and the accented lowercases (v2):
