I like the floor tiles, but we must be careful not to mix styles too much.
The bag under the bed, SW from the chest under the dogs (gah xD) is awesome!

Hey, i love the awesomeness of this graphics set, but i want to make a suggestion for the wolf. I think it would look much better with it's head held low like this or this.
A wolf isn't howling all the time...

Also all the characters are shifted too high and left in your clean set, most noticeable with the "l", whose top is inside the "\" tile. And the characters in the glowing tileset aren't arranged perfectly too, as already noted.

I recommend laying a 18x18 grid over your tileset when editing it, whch is an easy to enable function in gimp/photoshop and you can immediately see when a tile is clipping these gridlines.


Keep up the good work :)

I already mentioned that, the fonts are getting outsourced anyway in the next version, so there is no need to fix it. :)

Where are you guys getting this information about the fonts being seperated? I can't find the bug # on that. Is there a thread?

Still this is a really exciting development for anyone who likes custom graphics sets! The current system is very insufficient.

I should probably point out that, although the code is in there and you'll (hopefully) be able to test it, truetype rendering won't be on by default in the next release and it'll also only work in PRINT_MODE:2D.

I've still got a fair bit of work left to do, some of which can only be done once it's compiled with DF.

Why only in 2D though?

Thanks Baughn! Good luck with your progress.

Hmm. So Ironhand... in light of Baughn's comment above, maybe we can get a 0.47 to tide us over? :P

Yeah, I think we can make that happen.

I will work on it tomorrow. Or maybe even tonight. We'll see.
I need to fix wolves and mountain goats and I'll package it up.

Because it's easy. Rendering the same text via OpenGL has all kinds of possible performance/memory tradeoffs, and I can't decide which is best without seeing it in action.

I implemented truetype text display with freetype2 and ftgl lately, it's pretty performant with bitmapfonts, as long as it's not some UTF-16 glyph or something (they are not pre-generated and have to be loaded/generated at runtime).
