Ho do you make a graphics set anyway?
« on: July 28, 2010, 10:19:38 am »
Okay, I have a dilemma here. I play mixmod, but it has to be in ASCII. I can't stand the ASCII because its to dark. I can read it all well but I don't like the way it looks. And, mixmod is so great I can't really go back. I'm probably go to take either Ironhand's or Phobeus' and add things to because those are the best looking ones.I'll probably have to make a few myself though. So how do I assign tiles to creatures and things?

Download one of our sets and start changing stuff.
I honestly think that's the best way to learn it.

Also... the only thing you can apply graphics to is animals and dwarves and stuff.
Everything else just uses tiles from the extended ASCII tileset. Which you can change.

Good luck!
