![]() If you prefer the graphics for these tiles over somewhat less legible text, you can set this to your graphics file. This prevents your tileset graphics from overwriting characters such as 0 or. You can and should set this to a text font file (i.e. This sets the replacement images for the 256 font characters. Here's what each of the four font value options mean: 'Somewhat' fixing the issue: The reason it can somewhat separate things is because it tends to use the ASCII set for text and the Extended set for "graphics". ![]() It's written for the use of the standard windows-1252 encoding (also known as latin-1 or IBM CP 437.). However, DF is smart enough to be able to use a tile set for only its graphics, not its text, 'mostly'. That is because it reuses the same symbols for both text, displaying tiles, and data. How do I manually install a tileset in just vanilla, out-of-the-box Dwarf Fortress?ĭwarf fortress has four different values for font and tileset files. Or I could be totally wrong about all of that. But I can find no reference that documents what modifications need to be made, what the various modifications do (so that I can decide if I need to make that particular change), etc. And to add further complication, it seems like perhaps not all of them need to be modified, depending on various factors (like current resolution). The best I can tell, it seems like there are actually multiple (in fact, many) different files/settings that need to be modified to use a given tileset. And every other reference, tutorial, book, or video that I've found all points to using LNP which I'm not asking about. The DF documentation is pretty sparse and I haven't been able to successfully install any tileset by following it. I cannot find a single reference anywhere that walks through the process of manually installing a new tileset. ![]() I'm assuming it's what someone called impossible in another "square tilesets" post here on steam.I'm gonna attempt to save us all some frustration and emphasize the fact that I'm not asking about LNP or ANY other similar pre-packaged tool. Regarding it being possible or not: I would like to switch back and forth from premium to a square custom tile in the middle of the game. I think it's the only difference from this alloy you guys are using. Yeah, those are the three things I changed and the problem I have is exactly the ones you show on your pics of the premium UI I'm very happy that more people are using alloy, nice! If you have any trouble I'll post my txt files here so you can see what I have written on there, maybe that'll help. that I don't really know what else to say on this topic. You have to be aware that I've had problems with the premium UI after changing the file names, I have lines that go through the UI as you can see here. Like you I tried to look for and and couldn't find it but replacing, , and seems to work fine for me. I've posted images proving it worked for me earlier in this thread.Ībout another thread saying it doesn't, I have no idea what thread you're talking about so I can't speak to it but it works for me so I would disagree with the idea that it's *impossible*. ![]() I can't speak for mapoot but I assume it worked for him and it definitely worked for me. Also I can not even find the last two parameters you changed GRAPHICS_FONT GRAPHICS_FULLFONT Originally posted by mapoot:if you're still struggling, have you tried changing all of the following e.g.Īt first I changed only the first two and had the same issue as you, it wasn't until I added basic and graphics font settings that it was resolvedĮDIT: btw, thanks for the recommendation on alloy in this thread, I'm using it now B)ĭid this make square tilesets work? Another similar thread says it is impossible right now. have no idea why it works for me if other people are having problems. Right after a tribe of cave fish attacked my food and clothing workshops/stockpiles. Here is some screenshots of my game so you can see what I mean. The one issue I have is that the premium UI is completely broken when I have every font in d_init set to alloy, it only works for the classic UI. Alloy is probably the best curse tileset in my opinion.Ībout the "O"s looking like "C"s. I appreciate your kind words, I tried so many tilesets after I couldn't get over the not square squares that the default curses offers. It seems to me that the init file assumes the tileset won't be square, which is such a crazy backwards leap from where we were before. So the O's used for castles in the world map look like C's for example. ![]() Originally posted by rory_rory_rory:It looks like the tiles are being truncated horizontally when using alloy curses 12x12 (my favourite tileset by the way, clearly you are also a person of refined taste). ![]()
