How to use square tiles
« on: May 25, 2011, 10:48:40 am »

I'm tired of designating perfectly square rooms and having them look like rectangles!

I found the square tileset in the graphics folder, how can I activate it?

Thanks

Go into init.txt in data/init. Find this:
Quote
[FONT:curses_640x300.png]

and replace it with

Please check the wiki and the forum search before you ask.
Also be sure to ask these questions in the right subforum, which would be DF Gameplay questions. Thank you

Go to init.txt (data\init\init.txt). Below
[WINDOWEDX:80]
[WINDOWEDY:25]
you should find [FONT: curses_800x600.png] or something like that. Replace "curses_800x600.png" with "curses_square_16x16.png"

The wiki wasn't very helpful, and there's no actual gameplay involved in my question so I didn't feel I could ask it there.

Still, thanks to both of you.

Actually, the modding forum might've actually been the better place to ask, but whatev'
