Cheepicus: add another screenshot to my 14x14 tileset

{{For/see|user-created graphic sets|[[Graphics set repository]]}}

{{Mod}}

A character set, or simply [[tilesets|tileset]], is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics. This page serves as a repository for custom tilesets made by users, including instructions on how to install them.

==Background==

The default tilesets (640×300 and 800×600) render 8×12 and 10×12 characters respectively, with majuscule latin letters occupying a 7×9 box, and appear broadly similar to the IBM MDA font based on the shape of the "0", "g", and "f" characters (but with slight differences including the "0", "W", and "y"). The exact origin of the DF font is unknown.

==Installation==

To use a specific tileset with Dwarf Fortress, you must perform the following steps:

# Download the tileset to your computer. Each tileset is just an image, so there is no separate download link. ('''Right-Click''' on the tileset image and '''Save-As'''.)
# If necessary, convert the tileset to the correct image format for the version of DF you are using:
## ''For [[40d:Release information/0.28.181.40d|DF 0.28.181.40d]] or older:'' open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''24-bit bitmap''' (BMP) if it isn't already in that format.
## ''For [[v0.31:Release information/0.31.01|DF 0.31.01]] or newer:'' open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''PNG''' with ''transparency'' if it isn't already in that format.
# Move/Copy the file to the DF art directory ({{tt|.../data/art}}).
# Edit the initialization configuration file ({{tt|.../data/init/init.txt}}) to specify the tileset file to use. There are four locations that can be changed:
## Specify the tileset for a windowed display by setting the filename in the '''[FONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Specify the tileset for a full-screen display by setting the filename in the '''[FULLFONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Specify the tileset for a windowed graphical display by setting the filename in the '''[GRAPHICS_FONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Specify the tileset for a full-screen graphical display by setting the filename in the '''[GRAPHICS_FULLFONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Once you have made the changes you need to remember to save the file.

If the selected tileset requires modifications to the Raws, you will have to make those edits. What those changes are will depend on the tileset itself.

Once the file is saved and the required changes are made, you are ready to play DF with your new tileset!

Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abeyverse succession game.

Updated 11/12/07 to de-fuzz uppercase letters, added serifs and clarified lowercase letters, made horizontal spacing consistent throughout character set, fixed one error in the double horizontal-left-right, single-vertical-up-down character, made exclamation points consistent, thinned out question mark and inverse question mark, sharpened sideways stemless arrows, clarified international characters, and clarified some greek letters. Since v2.0: fixed 'i' 'g', fixed Yen symbol, fixed smiley 0x01 to not have an extra line to its right, lowered the period and colon characters, fixed position of 'x'. Thanks to Markavian for ideas on how to improve the font, as well as an occasional character glyph.

|comments=I like packing as much on the screen as I can, but 8×8 is just too crowded for 1920×1080 fullscreen. I intended to make a 10×10 version of Pastiche, but I had to make countless little changes to maintain visual consistency between the two sizes. I finally gave up, called it a new font, and changed some more stuff just because! Like Pastiche, Potash is a pure ASCII/CP437 font, suitable for use outside of Dwarf Fortress should you happen to find yourself stuck in 1985.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

|comments=Similar to [[Tileset_repository#Alloy|Alloy's conversion]], this is based on the default curses_800x600 tileset, converted to 12x12. I wrote a GIMP python plugin to add padding to bring each tile up to the required size, and then I manually tidied up the places where the images no longer went all the way to the edge of the tile. This ensures that the positioning of each image within each tile stays exactly the same as in the original tileset, but with a single pixel column added on both sides of the tile to bring it up to size. For people who like the 800x600 original tileset's look and size but want a square version of it.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page].

So my first try was to apply a solid background to all tiles of Talryth square tileset ( except few ones ), but it came out looking like a bunch of vermins swimming in a goblin's vomit... anyway i tried further and began to experiment with different base tilesets and finally made my own, using elements from tilesets of other authors ( mainly Tocky's one, big thanks to him! ). Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

Because a lot of letters are used for graphics, I suggest that you [[User:Jackard|remove accented letters from names]] with this set. I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

This font is actually different from the 8x14 version in that 20 characters have been replaced with the original MDA wide versions. These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign.

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

Cheepicus:

Tileset repository

2018-11-28T22:39:08Z

Cheepicus: /* Square tilesets */ added my new 14x14 set

{{For/see|user-created graphic sets|[[Graphics set repository]]}}

{{Mod}}

A character set, or simply [[tilesets|tileset]], is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics. This page serves as a repository for custom tilesets made by users, including instructions on how to install them.

==Background==

The default tilesets (640×300 and 800×600) render 8×12 and 10×12 characters respectively, with majuscule latin letters occupying a 7×9 box, and appear broadly similar to the IBM MDA font based on the shape of the "0", "g", and "f" characters (but with slight differences including the "0", "W", and "y"). The exact origin of the DF font is unknown.

==Installation==

To use a specific tileset with Dwarf Fortress, you must perform the following steps:

# Download the tileset to your computer. Each tileset is just an image, so there is no separate download link. ('''Right-Click''' on the tileset image and '''Save-As'''.)
# If necessary, convert the tileset to the correct image format for the version of DF you are using:
## ''For [[40d:Release information/0.28.181.40d|DF 0.28.181.40d]] or older:'' open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''24-bit bitmap''' (BMP) if it isn't already in that format.
## ''For [[v0.31:Release information/0.31.01|DF 0.31.01]] or newer:'' open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''PNG''' with ''transparency'' if it isn't already in that format.
# Move/Copy the file to the DF art directory ({{tt|.../data/art}}).
# Edit the initialization configuration file ({{tt|.../data/init/init.txt}}) to specify the tileset file to use. There are four locations that can be changed:
## Specify the tileset for a windowed display by setting the filename in the '''[FONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Specify the tileset for a full-screen display by setting the filename in the '''[FULLFONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Specify the tileset for a windowed graphical display by setting the filename in the '''[GRAPHICS_FONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Specify the tileset for a full-screen graphical display by setting the filename in the '''[GRAPHICS_FULLFONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Once you have made the changes you need to remember to save the file.

If the selected tileset requires modifications to the Raws, you will have to make those edits. What those changes are will depend on the tileset itself.

Once the file is saved and the required changes are made, you are ready to play DF with your new tileset!

Monoscii Lite is superior in every way, the information is denser, crisper and cleaner. pUrists will finally be one step closer to the most pUrist DF possible.

|comments=A large 257x257 DFMA world gen map can be found [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-3278-5x5largeworldmap here.]Updated 08/06/08. Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abeyverse succession game.

|comments=Version 2.05. Updated 11/12/07 to de-fuzz uppercase letters, added serifs and clarified lowercase letters, made horizontal spacing consistent throughout character set, fixed one error in the double horizontal-left-right, single-vertical-up-down character, made exclamation points consistent, thinned out question mark and inverse question mark, sharpened sideways stemless arrows, clarified international characters, and clarified some greek letters. Since v2.0: fixed 'i' 'g', fixed Yen symbol, fixed smiley 0x01 to not have an extra line to its right, lowered the period and colon characters, fixed position of 'x'. Thanks to Markavian for ideas on how to improve the font, as well as an occasional character glyph.

There is no thin variant of this font. Best viewed at 8:5 aspect ratio.

|comments=I like packing as much on the screen as I can, but 8×8 is just too crowded for 1920×1080 fullscreen. I intended to make a 10×10 version of Pastiche, but I had to make countless little changes to maintain visual consistency between the two sizes. I finally gave up, called it a new font, and changed some more stuff just because! Like Pastiche, Potash is a pure ASCII/CP437 font, suitable for use outside of Dwarf Fortress should you happen to find yourself stuck in 1985.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

|comments=Similar to [[Tileset_repository#Alloy|Alloy's conversion]], this is based on the default curses_800x600 tileset, converted to 12x12. I wrote a GIMP python plugin to add padding to bring each tile up to the required size, and then I manually tidied up the places where the images no longer went all the way to the edge of the tile. This ensures that the positioning of each image within each tile stays exactly the same as in the original tileset, but with a single pixel column added on both sides of the tile to bring it up to size. For people who like the 800x600 original tileset's look and size but want a square version of it.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page]. This will greatly speed progress, since I won't be doing it just for myself. Note: The [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 DFFD version] is updated more frequently and has the changelist.

An attempt to fill the void of "graphic heavy" tilesets in the 18x18 tile-size. A special emphasis is placed on maximizing the text's readability, while still providing a "graphics enhanced" play area. Special thanks to Maus for the font, and Guybrush for the inspiration.

These tilesets require modified [[raws]] to work properly. Specifically, the tile numbers assigned to some objects (critters, stones, plants) need to be changed and accented characters usually need to be removed from all languages.

So my first try was to apply a solid background to all tiles of Talryth square tileset ( except few ones ), but it came out looking like a bunch of vermins swimming in a goblin's vomit... anyway i tried further and began to experiment with different base tilesets and finally made my own, using elements from tilesets of other authors ( mainly Tocky's one, big thanks to him! ). Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

|comments=Impressed with the genius of using sprites as tiles, I cobbled together this tileset of my own.

Because a lot of letters are used for graphics, I suggest that you [[User:Jackard|remove accented letters from names]] with this set. I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign.

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

Cheepicus: move 24x36 tileset to non-square tileset section

:''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[Graphics set repository]].''

A '''character set''', or simply '''tileset''', is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics.

=Installation=
To use a specific tileset with Dwarf Fortress you must perform the following steps:

# Download the tileset to your computer. Each tileset is just an image, so there is no separate download link. ('''Right-Click''' on the tileset image and '''Save-As'''.)
# If necessary, convert the tileset to the correct image format for the version of DF you are using:
## For ''DF 0.28.181.40d'' or older: Open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''24-bit bitmap''' (BMP) if it isn't already in that format.
## For ''DF 0.31'' or newer: Open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''PNG''' with ''transparency'' if it isn't already in that format.
# Move/Copy the file to the DF art directory (''<DF Dir>/data/art'').
# Edit the initialization configuration file (''<DF Dir>/data/init/init.txt'') to specify the tileset file to use. There are four locations that can be changed:
## Specify the tileset for a windowed display by setting the filename in the '''[FONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Specify the tileset for a full-screen display by setting the filename in the '''[FULLFONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Specify the tileset for a windowed graphical display by setting the filename in the '''[GRAPHICS_FONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Specify the tileset for a full-screen graphical display by setting the filename in the '''[GRAPHICS_FULLFONT:''<filename>'']''' tag.
## Once you have made the changes you need to remember to save the file.

If the selected tileset requires modifications to the Raws, you will have to make those edits. What those changes are will depend on the tileset itself.

Once the file is saved and the required changes are made, you are ready to play DF with your new tileset!

|comments=A large 257x257 DFMA world gen map can be found [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-3278-5x5largeworldmap here.]Updated 08/06/08. Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abeyverse succession game.

|comments=Version 2.05. Updated 11/12/07 to de-fuzz uppercase letters, added serifs and clarified lowercase letters, made horizontal spacing consistent throughout character set, fixed one error in the double horizontal-left-right, single-vertical-up-down character, made exclamation points consistent, thinned out question mark and inverse question mark, sharpened sideways stemless arrows, clarified international characters, and clarified some greek letters. Since v2.0: fixed 'i' 'g', fixed Yen symbol, fixed smiley 0x01 to not have an extra line to its right, lowered the period and colon characters, fixed position of 'x'. Thanks to Markavian for ideas on how to improve the font, as well as an occasional character glyph.

I intended to make a 10×10 version of Pastiche, but I had to make countless little changes to maintain visual consistency between the two sizes. I finally gave up, called it a new font, and changed some more stuff just because! Like Pastiche, Potash is a pure ASCII/CP437 font, suitable for use outside of Dwarf Fortress should you happen to find yourself stuck in 1985.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

This ensures that the positioning of each image within each tile stays exactly the same as in the original tileset, but with a single pixel column added on both sides of the tile to bring it up to size. For people who like the 800x600 original tileset's look and size but want a square version of it.

The odd tile size fills the above resolutions without artifacts and it gives an advantage in design, making for sharp features and equal spacing between characters.

I did not use much of the pretty but confusing art I see in many of the other sets.

The only ones that seem to work are the dwarves which I took from Flying Mage / Guybrush. The pretty 3Dish fonts as well just seem to look muddier and be less legible.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page].

Walls were changed to make smooth curves and circles, broken arrows were changed to look broken, periods and commas were raised to center more closely on the tile, the seed tile was changed to help distinguish the current level and the one below, and a leaf / root tile was added for the new trees. There may have been a couple other minor changes, but the feel of the tileset should still be the same.

:''If you cannot find the altered raws of a tileset for your version of Dwarf Fortress have a look at the [[Raw tile selector]] tool.''

These tilesets require modified [[raws]] to work properly. Specifically, the tile numbers assigned to some objects (critters, stones, plants) need to be changed and accented characters usually need to be removed from all languages.

|comments= I always liked the simplicity and feeling of ASCII tilesets but at the same time i really missed solid backgrounds and some interesting tiles from graphical tilesets. So my first try was to apply a solid background to all tiles of Talryth square tileset ( except few ones ), but it came out looking like a bunch of vermins swimming in a goblin's vomit... anyway i tried further and began to experiment with different base tilesets and finally made my own, using elements from tilesets of other authors ( mainly Tocky's one, big thanks to him! ). Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

|comments=Impressed with the genius of using sprites as tiles, I cobbled together this tileset of my own. It uses Super Foul Egg's superb font as a base, with several sprites also found in other users' sets. Because a lot of letters are used for graphics, I suggest that you [[User:Jackard|remove accented letters from names]] with this set. I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

This font is as would be displayed on an EGA/VGA with the 9-pixel-width mode disabled. Best for a 64:35 aspect ratio. The required resolution is strange, so run fullscreen with BLACK_SPACE:YES and resolution at 640x480. The MDA card did not actually support displaying the font in 8x14, but ONLY 9x14 mode, see below. Theoretically, you CAN upload this font into EGA video memory though and use it.

This font is different from the MDA version in that many characters are slightly narrower to avoid 'running into' each other, and many characters have been shifted slightly to the left.

Updated new glyphs to be more consistent with the Fixedsys style. - v2.1 - update a few more glyphs, namely the integral, the infinity symbol, and the spade, and a few others I'm forgetting. - v2.2 - update the club and spade, and the music notes - v2.3 - fix the fact that 0xF9 and 0xFA were inadvertently swapped.

This font is actually different from the 8x14 version in that 20 characters have been replaced with the original MDA wide versions. These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign. Other than these characters, all characters are the same, with rightmost-row duplicated on the C and D rows like the MDA (though I don't actually know if this is technically correct).

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

:''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[List of user graphics sets|Graphics set repository]].''

A '''character set''', or simply '''tileset''', is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics.

=Installation=
To install any of these tilesets, follow these steps:

# Download the tileset via right-click-save-as on the the tileset. The tileset is just an image, so there's no separate download link. (The list is [[Main:List of user character sets|here]])
# Convert it into a 24-bit BMP file (40d or earlier) or PNG file (v0.31+). Do NOT just change the extension to .bmp; you must use a program like MS paint to save it as a .bmp.
# Put it in the data/art directory of your Dwarf Fortress installation.
# Open data/init/init.txt
# If you want to use the tileset in fullscreen mode, locate and modify the [FULLSCREENX:800], [FULLSCREENY:600], and [FULLFONT:curses_800x600.bmp] configuration lines to match the specifications from the tileset list. The FULLFONT directive should match the filename of the tileset you downloaded. If you want to use the tileset in windowed mode, search for the [WINDOWEDX:640], [WINDOWEDY:300], and [FONT:curses_640x300.bmp] lines instead, and change them to the correct values.
# It is also recommended you keep [BLACK_SPACE:YES] to prevent stretching of the graphics.
# Save the .txt file, then you're ready to play!

Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abeyverse succession game.

|comments=I like packing as much on the screen as I can, but 8×8 is just too crowded for 1920×1080 fullscreen. I intended to make a 10×10 version of Pastiche, but I had to make countless little changes to maintain visual consistency between the two sizes. I finally gave up, called it a new font, and changed some more stuff just because! Like Pastiche, Potash is a pure ASCII/CP437 font, suitable for use outside of Dwarf Fortress should you happen to find yourself stuck in 1985.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

This ensures that the positioning of each image within each tile stays exactly the same as in the original tileset, but with a single pixel column added on both sides of the tile to bring it up to size.

|comments=A 16×16 tileset based on the very nice Herrbdog's one, and for use with the superb [[40d:Graphics_set_repository#Dystopian_Rhetoric|Dystopian Rhetoric objects]]. A slightly modified version of Herrbdog's tileset is available below if you want to keep the original ASCII symbols for some objects (just do some cut & paste). It's just a little brighter and with some very slight changes. The tileset shown is a tileset with graphic objects added, for use with Fortress Mode.

I recommend to have a look at the [[color schemes|color schemes page]] to find your favorite color settings. The color scheme I used for the screenshots is [[Color_Schemes#.28Yet.29_Another_scheme|this one]].}}

I did not use much of the pretty but confusing art I see in many of the other sets. I tried for a while to incorporate many of these but found that with the multiple uses for most characters they were just wrong far too often to be useful. The only ones that seem to work are the dwarves which I took from Flying Mage / Guybrush. The pretty 3Dish fonts as well just seem to look muddier and be less legible. I love it and my husband has been happily playing it for months.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page]. This will greatly speed progress, since I won't be doing it just for myself. Note: The [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 DFFD version] is updated more frequently and has the changelist.

Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

This tileset contains the best graphic tiles (in my opinion) that were collected from many other tilesets and other games; I took [[User:Lemunde|Lemunde's]] tileset as a basis (thanx a lot, Lemunde). Some of tiles were drawn by me. Many tiles were reworked and improved with some additional colours. I hope you enjoy with this tiles. ;)

|comments=Impressed with the genius of using sprites as tiles, I cobbled together this tileset of my own. It uses Super Foul Egg's superb font as a base, with several sprites also found in other users' sets. Because a lot of letters are used for graphics, I suggest that you [[User:Jackard|remove accented letters from names]] with this set. I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)
V1 can still be found [[:Image:16x16_isenhertz_v1.png|here]].

|comments=This is a modified version of Mike Mayday's/Herrbdog's tileset. It has a more textured feel to the walls and makes heavy use of the new transparency features to make some of the tiles a little more dynamic. You can view a preview map [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-7000-dragonskull here]. I recommend changing the sky settings in the init.txt file to [SKY:249:1:0:0] for a more natural look.

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

Cheepicus: /* Headers and anchors */

==Tilesets requiring edited raws==

I'm noticing more and more tilesets on the list which require edited raws, in most cases they require the raws from DFG. Shouldn't those be separated to prevent confusion among newbies? They are likely to try these tilesets with an unmodded DF and get frustrated. --[[User:Mikemayday|Mikemayday]] 00:07, 21 September 2009 (GMT)
:I agree, those heavily edited tilesets should be seperated, preferably with a link to the matching raws. --[[User:Pugi|Pugi]] 10:09, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::Thanks Mike for doing this, this explains some of the confusion I had with others (I knew yours required RAW mining, but not the others.) My only problem is that many of the others don't seem to have any explanation of which RAWs to change. Anyone know of any links? [[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 14:15, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
I added a link to the [[Raw tile selector]] tool since a lot of these tilesets lack raws for newer versions of df. I hope this is okay. --[[User:Hermano|Hermano]] 16:23, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

== Mac user ==

Can these tilesets be used on a mac as well?

* Yes. I'm using them right now. --[[User:Bombcar|Bombcar]] 19:12, 17 October 2008 (EDT)

== Tiny tilesests ==

<blockquote>
''Sets smaller than 8x8. Used for playing in tiny windows, '''display of massive maps''' and perhaps videos.''
</blockquote>

I thought it wasnt possible to change the size of the map (number of tiles rendered on screen), am I wrong or does the author mean display of maps '''outside''' the game? --[[User:Mizipzor|Mizipzor]] 21:09, 4 November 2007 (EST)

:I imagine the only current use is in exporting bitmaps from the game. —[[User:0x517A5D|0x517A5D]] 15:30, 14 November 2007 (EST)
::I've used one of 'em to hide a DF window on my work computer, and they're fun to use at 4x size,too. But yeah, they make real nice maps. --[[User:Maus|Maus]] 09:10, 18 December 2007 (EST)
:::Note that it's now possible to change the 80x25 in the init file.--[[User:Bombcar|Bombcar]] 19:13, 17 October 2008 (EDT)

Can anyone say PocketPC Dwarf Fortress? I imagine with a low popcap and a 3x3 or less area, it wouldn't be too bad on most PDAs out there. Now, if only someone would port the code... --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 20:40, 8 January 2008 (EST)

== Page Split ==

There are too many character sets on this one page, I propose splitting the page into twopages:
* one for 'classic' code page 437 fonts/glyph sets/character sets with no graphical characters whatsoever
* one for 'semigraphical' character sets which have one or more of the normal glyphs replaced with a df-specific graphic (a barrel instead of the division sign, for instance) - [[User:Lord Nightmare|Lord Nightmare]] 19:18, 9 December 2007 (EST)

:I disagree; there's no reason to split content into two different areas when it's already easily comparable and all in one place. --[[User:Maus|Maus]] 09:12, 18 December 2007 (EST)

== Why png? ==

If they all have to be resaved as bmp, why the heck are they uploaded as png? These are small files, you're not saving significant disk or bandwidth by keeping them in png. This is particularly irritating since I can't seem to get any of these to work even after resaving/converting them -.- --[[User:Nunix|Nunix]] 14:14, 20 February 2008 (EST)

:If you're not just renaming the files, then your problem isn't with the files being .png format. Making an exception to [[Dwarf Fortress Wiki:Community_Portal|Rule I]] would only cause confusion as there are many images that are quite large indeed. --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 15:32, 20 February 2008 (EST)

::No, it's not just a rename, I'm going into GIMP and doing a Save as... The file size changes, so it's doing SOMETHING, but when I go to use the font the screen comes up blank (but if I hit down twice and enter, I still exit, so everything works, there's just no display.) I hadn't seen the style guide/list, however, so that's fair enough. I'll post on the message boards and see if I can troubleshoot there. --[[User:Nunix|Nunix]] 16:58, 20 February 2008 (EST)

:::Simple solution: Open the image in MSPaint and save as a 24-bit BMP. If you don't have Windows, then you should have enough computer savvy to do it in whatever program you choose.
:::Also, bmps cannot be uploaded to the wiki.
:::Furthermore, we do actually save significant page size. If those were all bitmaps, that would be a few megabytes, which is annoying to load. Converting to png makes it only a couple hundred kilobytes. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 22:59, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

== Length, and how we can decrease it ==

This page is the twelfth longest page in the wiki. Ten of the eleven pages longer than it are lists. It has forty tilesets, less than a third of which are at all good. This is obviously a problem – sludging through all forty of those is not at all fun and, for most of it, not at all useful. 
As a fix, I propose that we copy this page to "Full list of user character sets" and keep only the best fifteen (or maybe ten or maybe twenty) here. Of course, that brings up the difficult question "how do we determine which tilesets are best?" To determine that, we could try getting as many DF players as we can to tell us which tileset(s) they use. Of course, that would need some rules, a forum thread, etc. 
I'll write more about this later, assuming that some interest exists. The time is late and sleepiness impedes thought. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 00:53, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

:To solve [[User:Nunix|Nunix's]] '''Why png?''' problem and to determine the popularity, I suggest we upload all tilesets to [http://dffd.wimbli.com/index.php Dwarf Fortress File Depot] in .bmp format (so nobody have to convert images from .png anymore). Dwarf Fortress File Depot has download trackers for all its downloads. The end of the week, we can determine the 15 most popular based on the download count. Anybody interested can compare the download numbers and edit the 15 best list for the wiki anytime they feel like it to keep it updated often.
:The current tileset Template will need a '''download''' bit added to it as well. [[User:Plac1d|Plac1d]] 17:01, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

::That could work...
::*downloads his tileset fifty times*
::I don't think it would work at all. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 22:59, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

::What about making one sub page per tile set. Classify each with 'size', 'shape' and 'style'. Use categories to navigate. Have each character set include a 64x64 pixel chunk of the screen - of these, then use gallery tags to browse with links to the sub page. The why png and link and supporting information for downloads is not a bad idea, but given the small DF playing population, the downloads are likely to be very skewed and cutting off at 15 may remove some very good ones that people have already downloaded and don't see a need to download again. --[[User:Shagie|Shagie]] 17:52, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

:::I don't think that the tilesets & tileset descriptions are large enough to warrant that. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 22:59, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

Hmn. Perhaps, we could ask all the dwarves on this wiki to submit a list of their top 20 tilesets, roughly in order of preference. If we get consensus on the best ones, that could work. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 10:32, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

: What about splitting the tilesets into separate pages by size, e.g. a page for all 16x16s, another for 12x12s, etc? About favorite tilesets, I could barely name my favorite three, so I think picking a favorite 15 or 20 is a bit extreme, and I don't think we can rely on download counts or people just happening to vote, unless we specifically say that voting is going to determine something. '''So''', what do you think about this idea: First, ask forum-goers to nominate user character sets for archiving (removal to an archive page). Second, after the nomination period is over (say, a week), upload those to the file depot, link to the pages, and give forum-goers a month or so to vote down the character sets they want archived, and to vote up ones they don't want archived. At the end of that time we can check their ratings and archive the lowest-rated ones. --[[User:SL|SL]] 01:37, 21 July 2008 (EDT)

::I think that splitting the tilesets by size into subpages could be handy: Resolution is a key factor in determining usability of a tileset. For instance, I'd never need to use a 48x48 tileset by a user named "AAAAAAAAA", but in our current sorting system, that'd be the first one displayed on the page, for all to see. I must however raise a question about the direction this line of discussion has gone: Do we really want to prune content based on some standard of quality? If so, whose standard of quality? The problems with this page seem to arise from the fact that this page is unusual for a wiki: It's goal doesn't seem to be "disseminate information" as much as "Host tilesets for download". Which is a valuable service, granted, but an unusual shift for a wiki. This different focus in purpose should be considered before deciding to begin pruning. An excess of content and options is arguably a good thing.[[User:Teeto K|Teeto K]] 05:53, 24 October 2008 (EDT)

Now that we have many different subsections here perhaps it's time we took those subsections into separate pages with this page as the central navigation point to those other pages? Would that help? It might be useful so that way each subsection can have whatever explanations are required here, thus important distinctions such as with the tilesets that need different RAWs will be noticed before someone dives into the repository. [[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 14:18, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

== Page name ==

<code>List of user character sets</code> is long and unnecessarily wordy. I propose <code>List of tilesets</code>. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 10:32, 30 May 2008 (EDT)
:Sounds like a good idea. Seconded. [[User:Isenhertz|Isenhertz]] 07:41, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

== New grid sizes ==

Will someone please explain to me how I can make a 960x300 (Markavian's) tileset work with the new grid sizes larger than 80:25? 96:60 used to work until I tried to us .40c, now it doesn't. --[[User:DDouble|DDouble]] 18:38, 5 September 2008 (EDT)
:Oops I had forgotten to change the size in the init to
[WINDOWEDX:1152]

[WINDOWEDY:720]

[FONT:mkv_solidcurses_960x300.bmp]

and

[GRID:96:60]
--[[User:DDouble|DDouble]] 18:41, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

== Problem with Fullscreen ==
I changed the fullscreen settings in my init to 1280x400 like Aesomatica's 16x16 tileset says, but every time I start DF it gives me a 'Mode changed failed, switching to windowed' error, with or without blackspace. How do I get it to run full? --[[User:KittenyKat|KittenyKat]] 16:27, 2 March 2009 (EST)

:Edit: Checking several different tilesets, for some reason none of them want to work fullscreen other than curses.. I'm wondering if I screwed something up, or if I still just need different measurements.. D: --[[User:KittenyKat|KittenyKat]] 17:20, 2 March 2009 (EST)

::Edit 2: Nevermind, I figured out the problem and now I just feel like a doofus for not recognizing it sooner :p To those who also end up with this problem, here is the solution: you have to set the fullscreen resolution to one your monitor can actually support. Matching the listed res is nice if it works cause it makes everything big and easy to see without stretching it if you have black space off, but if your monitor can't go to 400 Y for example, then you should just go to your current desktop res (in my case 1280x1024) and turn black space on.. Tweak to taste. I'm certain others can clarify this better, though :) --[[User:KittenyKat|KittenyKat]] 17:47, 2 March 2009 (EST)

== Tileset Transparency ==
So, I learned that 0.28.181.40d11 (And possibly earlier versions) supports png format files natively. I know that pngs support an alpha layer (transparency). I tested how transparency works in 40d11 and was quite pleased with the results. Basically, when you add an alpha layer to the png, the magenta color is no longer considered the 'transparent' color, but this allows you to add shading to the transparent color, like for barrels (which has a black normal color and a brown background color). So, white to black shades the normal color, alpha to black shades the background color. Just wanted to share! [[User:Belathus|Belathus]] 07:23, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
:I tried dabbling with this recently ("dabbling tileset artist" ftw!) but I haven't been able to get pngs to work at all. The game simply doesn't load. Is there a link to any discussions on the Bay12 forums about this? I tried searching but didn't find anything there [[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 15:04, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::I see now what I was doing wrong. Belathus was referring to early release 11 which is part of an open-source project towards using OpenGL as the DF graphics engine, which should allow PNGs. They are now up to 16 now and the testing is being managed by [http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=40349.405 Baughn on the forums]. Depending on the success of the testing, Toady One might put it into the next version, but people need to help test it. So go there and help dammit!! [[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 01:48, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

==Standard preview==
I can't seem to find it anywhere, but where is the fort many of you have been using for a standard preview? I'm talking about the one pictured in Lord Nightmare, Markavian, Zaratustra, and Herrbdog's previews. I feel a bit out of place with my tilesets and no direct means of comparison. --[[User:Kein|Kein]] 15:40, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

==Adding a date field==
Some of these entries are quite old, dating back to the ol' Boatmurdered days. Many more are based on the old classics, and generally say so, but right now it's hard to find the difference between a new entry and an old one. Someone, (ok, me) should find the date stamps on the graphics and add it to the description. Barring any objections, I'll start adding them tomorrow... --[[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 01:42, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

== Request ==
I'm quite intrigued by the graphical 16x16 tilesets, such as Aesomatica's, but have one minor problem - my monitor only supports up to 1024x756, meaning that the 1280x400 resolution required is way too big for my monitor. Since I won't be able to get a larger monitor for a while yet, would it be possible to add in a section for 12x12 tilesets for the slightly smaller resolutions, or do you not think it's really worth it? --[[User:Libelnon|Libelnon]] 22:47, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

== d40 and DF2010 Split? ==

Should we just save what is here, and split off a new page for DF2010-compatible tilesets?--[[User:TarrVetus|TarrVetus]] 15:08, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Shouldn't all of them be compatible? if not, there should definitely be a split. I've been trying to get some of the 16x16 tilesets to work on my laptop, but I haven't been able to find one that works, i think I've changed my init.txt correctly but I just get blurry crap on the intro video. (UTC)

:This may be a bug. There seems to be problems with tilesets in the initial release. I'd wait for the release to get some bugfixes before making a decision. It would be truly bizarre if Toady One changed the necessary inputs for changed tilesets. --[[User:Squirrelloid|Squirrelloid]] 17:28, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
::All of the tilesets I've played with work correctly; I think only graphics sets need to be split due to the changes to the raws. It sounds to me like you might have the resolution set funny in init.txt. -- [[User:Dark T Zeratul|Dark T Zeratul]] 17:35, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
:::They're all compatible? Oh thank Armok! I was under the impression the tilesets were dead. I'm configuring my old one immediately! --[[User:TarrVetus|TarrVetus]] 21:48, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
:::Maybe tilesets with edited raws should be put in two categories, .40d and .31 versions? --[[User:Hermano|Hermano]] 12:08, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
:::You're welcome. [[User:Armok|Armok]] 06:01, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

== Pink? ==

I uploaded a new tileset(Guybrush_square_16x16), but it messed up the colors, turning most stuff pink, them some things other colors. Anyone know how to fix this?
 
Its odd, I tried to do the same thing with one of my new tilesets and had the same issue. I had problems with a 16x16 tileset in the .png format, but DF interpreted it correctly after converting it to .bmp and using that instead. [[User:Coaldiamond|-Coaldiamond]] 22:56, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

== Edited Raws ==

Only a few of the tilesets In the "16×16 tilesets for edited raws" section explain exactly how the raws should be edited. Is there a standard set of "edited raws" or does each tileset have different requirements? Shouldn't those requirements be spelt our somewhere? As it stands I have no idea how to install most of these tilesets.

:Several of the tilesets use the edited raws of the [http://mayday.w.staszic.waw.pl/df.php mayday tileset], others will need specific raws - sadly information about this is often lacking.
:The edited raws for most of these tilesets are missing (at least for recent versions of df). If you want to use one of those tilesets you can edit the raws yourself with the [[Raw tile selector]]. There is still some work involved but it shouldn't be too bad. -- [[User:Hermano|Hermano]] 17:30, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

== Adding a tileset ==

I'm a wiki-noob. How do I add a tileset? I'm baffled by the image uploading thing. How do I do that?

Nevermind, figured it out. [[User:AbuDhabi|AbuDhabi]] 10:05, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

== Any chance to add another tileset? ==

I see the file upload is disabled now, but I'd really like to add [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=101657 one] or [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=101440 two] ASCII tilesets, both much like the classic, but in 24×24.

--[[User:Nagidal|Nagidal]] 11:11, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Is the file upload still disabled? It says I don't have permission to upload a file. Would like to add a tileset.

[[User:Larwick|Larwick]] ([[User talk:Larwick|talk]]) 18:11, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

:It's enabled, but you need to make 3 edits before you have permission to upload files (since it involves creating new pages). Making 2 more edits should allow you to upload files (editing this page twice should do the trick, or you can find a few errors to fix). --[[User:Lethosor|Lethosor]] ([[User talk:Lethosor|talk]]) 18:40, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

==Headers and anchors==
Not sure yet how I feel about the edit by [[User:Buddy|Buddy]] to group tilesets by size instead of by creator. It makes sense, but a side effect is that it removes the ability to provide someone elsewhere on the web a link to your tileset. Perhaps the best way to fix this is to introduce anchors to the tileset template, which I am looking at doing now...[[User:Cheepicus|Cheepicus]] ([[User talk:Cheepicus|talk]]) 19:10, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
:Okay, I added an optional "title" field to the tileset template that creates a permalink. [[Tileset_repository#cheepicus_8x8|Example]]. I'm not going to add titles to everyone's tilesets, at least for now.[[User:Cheepicus|Cheepicus]] ([[User talk:Cheepicus|talk]]) 20:33, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Tileset repository

2014-07-23T20:21:35Z

Cheepicus:

:''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[List of user graphics sets|Graphics set repository]].''

A '''character set''', or simply '''tileset''', is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics.

=Installation=
To install any of these tilesets, follow these steps:

# Download the tileset via right-click-save-as on the the tileset. The tileset is just an image, so there's no separate download link. (The list is [[Main:List of user character sets|here]])
# Convert it into a 24-bit BMP file (40d or earlier) or PNG file (v0.31+). Do NOT just change the extension to .bmp; you must use a program like MS paint to save it as a .bmp.
# Put it in the data/art directory of your Dwarf Fortress installation.
# Open data/init/init.txt
# If you want to use the tileset in fullscreen mode, locate and modify the [FULLSCREENX:800], [FULLSCREENY:600], and [FULLFONT:curses_800x600.bmp] configuration lines to match the specifications from the tileset list. The FULLFONT directive should match the filename of the tileset you downloaded. If you want to use the tileset in windowed mode, search for the [WINDOWEDX:640], [WINDOWEDY:300], and [FONT:curses_640x300.bmp] lines instead, and change them to the correct values.
# It is also recommended you keep [BLACK_SPACE:YES] to prevent stretching of the graphics.
# Save the .txt file, then you're ready to play!

Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abeyverse succession game.

Updated 11/12/07 to de-fuzz uppercase letters, added serifs and clarified lowercase letters, made horizontal spacing consistent throughout character set, fixed one error in the double horizontal-left-right, single-vertical-up-down character, made exclamation points consistent, thinned out question mark and inverse question mark, sharpened sideways stemless arrows, clarified international characters, and clarified some greek letters. Since v2.0: fixed 'i' 'g', fixed Yen symbol, fixed smiley 0x01 to not have an extra line to its right, lowered the period and colon characters, fixed position of 'x'. Thanks to Markavian for ideas on how to improve the font, as well as an occasional character glyph.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

|comments=Built from scratch, this ASCII tileset is made with two common 16:10 resolutions in mind. The odd tile size fills the above resolutions without artifacts and it gives an advantage in design, making for sharp features and equal spacing between characters. The manual anti-aliasing gives the set a nice and clean look. Transparent PNG support is needed for this one.

|comments=I liked the great Talryth square 15x15 very much! However dwarves tiles were a litlle bit out of the style, so I changed them to default-like ones.

Some tiles are original, some are variants and most are copied from various sets the author found pleasing. Notable originals include the broken bolt/ashes tiles, the ballista heads/large hills, the small hills, the ore (gear animation is pleasing, though axle animation is unimproved), ground tiles, and vermin. Also, bins look decent and up/down stairs look okay. This set looks its best with Sphr's graphics.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page].

=Square Tilesets for Edited Raws=

:''If you cannot find the altered raws of a tileset for your version of Dwarf Fortress have a look at the [[Raw tile selector]] tool.''

These tilesets require modified [[raws]] to work properly. Specifically, the tile numbers assigned to some objects (critters, stones, plants) need to be changed and accented characters usually need to be removed from all languages.

|comments= I always liked the simplicity and feeling of ASCII tilesets but at the same time i really missed solid backgrounds and some interesting tiles from graphical tilesets. So my first try was to apply a solid background to all tiles of Talryth square tileset ( except few ones ), but it came out looking like a bunch of vermins swimming in a goblin's vomit... anyway i tried further and began to experiment with different base tilesets and finally made my own, using elements from tilesets of other authors ( mainly Tocky's one, big thanks to him! ). Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

|comments= Dwarf Fortress looks too serious and gritty, especially when it's filled with so much fun, ☼Fun☼ and comedy. There are four main handy-dandy aspects of this mod: Injecting some more personality and brightness into the visuals; Making important stuff easier to see, smoothing over unimportant things (9x12 or 12x12 ASCII!); Delicious icon :D

|comments=Impressed with the genius of using sprites as tiles, I cobbled together this tileset of my own. It uses Super Foul Egg's superb font as a base, with several sprites also found in other users' sets. Because a lot of letters are used for graphics, I suggest that you [[User:Jackard|remove accented letters from names]] with this set. I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)
V1 can still be found [[:Image:16x16_isenhertz_v1.png|here]].

|comments=This is a modified version of Mike Mayday's/Herrbdog's tileset. It has a more textured feel to the walls and makes heavy use of the new transparency features to make some of the tiles a little more dynamic. You can view a preview map [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-7000-dragonskull here]. I recommend changing the sky settings in the init.txt file to [SKY:249:1:0:0] for a more natural look.

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

The required resolution is strange, so run fullscreen with BLACK_SPACE:YES and resolution at 640x480. This font is actually different from the 8x14 version in that 20 characters have been replaced with the original MDA wide versions. These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign. Other than these characters, all characters are the same, with rightmost-row duplicated on the C and D rows like the MDA (though I don't actually know if this is technically correct).

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements. You can discuss the matter [http://www.bay12games.com/cgi-local/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=11&t=000645 here].

Cheepicus:

:''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[List of user graphics sets|Graphics set repository]].''

A '''character set''', or simply '''tileset''', is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics.

=Installation=
To install any of these tilesets, follow these steps:

# Download the tileset via right-click-save-as on the the tileset. The tileset is just an image, so there's no separate download link. (The list is [[Main:List of user character sets|here]])
# Convert it into a 24-bit BMP file (40d or earlier) or PNG file (v0.31+). Do NOT just change the extension to .bmp; you must use a program like MS paint to save it as a .bmp.
# Put it in the data/art directory of your Dwarf Fortress installation.
# Open data/init/init.txt
# If you want to use the tileset in fullscreen mode, locate and modify the [FULLSCREENX:800], [FULLSCREENY:600], and [FULLFONT:curses_800x600.bmp] configuration lines to match the specifications from the tileset list. The FULLFONT directive should match the filename of the tileset you downloaded. If you want to use the tileset in windowed mode, search for the [WINDOWEDX:640], [WINDOWEDY:300], and [FONT:curses_640x300.bmp] lines instead, and change them to the correct values.
# It is also recommended you keep [BLACK_SPACE:YES] to prevent stretching of the graphics.
# Save the .txt file, then you're ready to play!

Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abeyverse succession game.

Since v2.0: fixed 'i' 'g', fixed Yen symbol, fixed smiley 0x01 to not have an extra line to its right, lowered the period and colon characters, fixed position of 'x'. Thanks to Markavian for ideas on how to improve the font, as well as an occasional character glyph.

|comments=I wanted every character in this set to be the very best text symbol it could possibly be, while still looking good in-game.

A hidden feature of this tileset is that the border around the white tile only has its red color-component changed, which means that a nice clear grid shows up over (brown) designations, while (blue) ice walls still look perfectly smooth.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page]. This will greatly speed progress, since I won't be doing it just for myself. Note: The [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 DFFD version] is updated more frequently and has the changelist.

=Square Tilesets for Edited Raws=

:''If you cannot find the altered raws of a tileset for your version of Dwarf Fortress have a look at the [[Raw tile selector]] tool.''

These tilesets require modified [[raws]] to work properly. Specifically, the tile numbers assigned to some objects (critters, stones, plants) need to be changed and accented characters usually need to be removed from all languages.

So my first try was to apply a solid background to all tiles of Talryth square tileset ( except few ones ), but it came out looking like a bunch of vermins swimming in a goblin's vomit... anyway i tried further and began to experiment with different base tilesets and finally made my own, using elements from tilesets of other authors ( mainly Tocky's one, big thanks to him! ). Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)

Updated new glyphs to be more consistent with the Fixedsys style. - v2.1 - update a few more glyphs, namely the integral, the infinity symbol, and the spade, and a few others I'm forgetting. - v2.2 - update the club and spade, and the music notes - v2.3 - fix the fact that 0xF9 and 0xFA were inadvertently swapped.

The required resolution is strange, so run fullscreen with BLACK_SPACE:YES and resolution at 640x480. This font is actually different from the 8x14 version in that 20 characters have been replaced with the original MDA wide versions. These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign. Other than these characters, all characters are the same, with rightmost-row duplicated on the C and D rows like the MDA (though I don't actually know if this is technically correct).

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

==Headers and anchors==
Not sure yet how I feel about the edit by [[User:Buddy|Buddy]] to group tilesets by size instead of by creator. It makes sense, but a side effect is that it removes the ability to provide someone elsewhere on the web a link to your tileset. Perhaps the best way to fix this is to introduce anchors to the tileset template, which I am looking at doing now...[[User:Cheepicus|Cheepicus]] ([[User talk:Cheepicus|talk]]) 19:10, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

==Tilesets requiring edited raws==

I'm noticing more and more tilesets on the list which require edited raws, in most cases they require the raws from DFG. Shouldn't those be separated to prevent confusion among newbies? They are likely to try these tilesets with an unmodded DF and get frustrated. --[[User:Mikemayday|Mikemayday]] 00:07, 21 September 2009 (GMT)
:I agree, those heavily edited tilesets should be seperated, preferably with a link to the matching raws. --[[User:Pugi|Pugi]] 10:09, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::Thanks Mike for doing this, this explains some of the confusion I had with others (I knew yours required RAW mining, but not the others.) My only problem is that many of the others don't seem to have any explanation of which RAWs to change. Anyone know of any links? [[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 14:15, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
I added a link to the [[Raw tile selector]] tool since a lot of these tilesets lack raws for newer versions of df. I hope this is okay. --[[User:Hermano|Hermano]] 16:23, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

== Mac user ==

Can these tilesets be used on a mac as well?

* Yes. I'm using them right now. --[[User:Bombcar|Bombcar]] 19:12, 17 October 2008 (EDT)

== Tiny tilesests ==

<blockquote>
''Sets smaller than 8x8. Used for playing in tiny windows, '''display of massive maps''' and perhaps videos.''
</blockquote>

I thought it wasnt possible to change the size of the map (number of tiles rendered on screen), am I wrong or does the author mean display of maps '''outside''' the game? --[[User:Mizipzor|Mizipzor]] 21:09, 4 November 2007 (EST)

:I imagine the only current use is in exporting bitmaps from the game. —[[User:0x517A5D|0x517A5D]] 15:30, 14 November 2007 (EST)
::I've used one of 'em to hide a DF window on my work computer, and they're fun to use at 4x size,too. But yeah, they make real nice maps. --[[User:Maus|Maus]] 09:10, 18 December 2007 (EST)
:::Note that it's now possible to change the 80x25 in the init file.--[[User:Bombcar|Bombcar]] 19:13, 17 October 2008 (EDT)

Can anyone say PocketPC Dwarf Fortress? I imagine with a low popcap and a 3x3 or less area, it wouldn't be too bad on most PDAs out there. Now, if only someone would port the code... --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 20:40, 8 January 2008 (EST)

== Page Split ==

There are too many character sets on this one page, I propose splitting the page into twopages:
* one for 'classic' code page 437 fonts/glyph sets/character sets with no graphical characters whatsoever
* one for 'semigraphical' character sets which have one or more of the normal glyphs replaced with a df-specific graphic (a barrel instead of the division sign, for instance) - [[User:Lord Nightmare|Lord Nightmare]] 19:18, 9 December 2007 (EST)

:I disagree; there's no reason to split content into two different areas when it's already easily comparable and all in one place. --[[User:Maus|Maus]] 09:12, 18 December 2007 (EST)

== Why png? ==

If they all have to be resaved as bmp, why the heck are they uploaded as png? These are small files, you're not saving significant disk or bandwidth by keeping them in png. This is particularly irritating since I can't seem to get any of these to work even after resaving/converting them -.- --[[User:Nunix|Nunix]] 14:14, 20 February 2008 (EST)

:If you're not just renaming the files, then your problem isn't with the files being .png format. Making an exception to [[Dwarf Fortress Wiki:Community_Portal|Rule I]] would only cause confusion as there are many images that are quite large indeed. --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 15:32, 20 February 2008 (EST)

::No, it's not just a rename, I'm going into GIMP and doing a Save as... The file size changes, so it's doing SOMETHING, but when I go to use the font the screen comes up blank (but if I hit down twice and enter, I still exit, so everything works, there's just no display.) I hadn't seen the style guide/list, however, so that's fair enough. I'll post on the message boards and see if I can troubleshoot there. --[[User:Nunix|Nunix]] 16:58, 20 February 2008 (EST)

:::Simple solution: Open the image in MSPaint and save as a 24-bit BMP. If you don't have Windows, then you should have enough computer savvy to do it in whatever program you choose.
:::Also, bmps cannot be uploaded to the wiki.
:::Furthermore, we do actually save significant page size. If those were all bitmaps, that would be a few megabytes, which is annoying to load. Converting to png makes it only a couple hundred kilobytes. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 22:59, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

== Length, and how we can decrease it ==

This page is the twelfth longest page in the wiki. Ten of the eleven pages longer than it are lists. It has forty tilesets, less than a third of which are at all good. This is obviously a problem – sludging through all forty of those is not at all fun and, for most of it, not at all useful. 
As a fix, I propose that we copy this page to "Full list of user character sets" and keep only the best fifteen (or maybe ten or maybe twenty) here. Of course, that brings up the difficult question "how do we determine which tilesets are best?" To determine that, we could try getting as many DF players as we can to tell us which tileset(s) they use. Of course, that would need some rules, a forum thread, etc. 
I'll write more about this later, assuming that some interest exists. The time is late and sleepiness impedes thought. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 00:53, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

:To solve [[User:Nunix|Nunix's]] '''Why png?''' problem and to determine the popularity, I suggest we upload all tilesets to [http://dffd.wimbli.com/index.php Dwarf Fortress File Depot] in .bmp format (so nobody have to convert images from .png anymore). Dwarf Fortress File Depot has download trackers for all its downloads. The end of the week, we can determine the 15 most popular based on the download count. Anybody interested can compare the download numbers and edit the 15 best list for the wiki anytime they feel like it to keep it updated often.
:The current tileset Template will need a '''download''' bit added to it as well. [[User:Plac1d|Plac1d]] 17:01, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

::That could work...
::*downloads his tileset fifty times*
::I don't think it would work at all. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 22:59, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

::What about making one sub page per tile set. Classify each with 'size', 'shape' and 'style'. Use categories to navigate. Have each character set include a 64x64 pixel chunk of the screen - of these, then use gallery tags to browse with links to the sub page. The why png and link and supporting information for downloads is not a bad idea, but given the small DF playing population, the downloads are likely to be very skewed and cutting off at 15 may remove some very good ones that people have already downloaded and don't see a need to download again. --[[User:Shagie|Shagie]] 17:52, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

:::I don't think that the tilesets & tileset descriptions are large enough to warrant that. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 22:59, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

Hmn. Perhaps, we could ask all the dwarves on this wiki to submit a list of their top 20 tilesets, roughly in order of preference. If we get consensus on the best ones, that could work. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 10:32, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

: What about splitting the tilesets into separate pages by size, e.g. a page for all 16x16s, another for 12x12s, etc? About favorite tilesets, I could barely name my favorite three, so I think picking a favorite 15 or 20 is a bit extreme, and I don't think we can rely on download counts or people just happening to vote, unless we specifically say that voting is going to determine something. '''So''', what do you think about this idea: First, ask forum-goers to nominate user character sets for archiving (removal to an archive page). Second, after the nomination period is over (say, a week), upload those to the file depot, link to the pages, and give forum-goers a month or so to vote down the character sets they want archived, and to vote up ones they don't want archived. At the end of that time we can check their ratings and archive the lowest-rated ones. --[[User:SL|SL]] 01:37, 21 July 2008 (EDT)

::I think that splitting the tilesets by size into subpages could be handy: Resolution is a key factor in determining usability of a tileset. For instance, I'd never need to use a 48x48 tileset by a user named "AAAAAAAAA", but in our current sorting system, that'd be the first one displayed on the page, for all to see. I must however raise a question about the direction this line of discussion has gone: Do we really want to prune content based on some standard of quality? If so, whose standard of quality? The problems with this page seem to arise from the fact that this page is unusual for a wiki: It's goal doesn't seem to be "disseminate information" as much as "Host tilesets for download". Which is a valuable service, granted, but an unusual shift for a wiki. This different focus in purpose should be considered before deciding to begin pruning. An excess of content and options is arguably a good thing.[[User:Teeto K|Teeto K]] 05:53, 24 October 2008 (EDT)

Now that we have many different subsections here perhaps it's time we took those subsections into separate pages with this page as the central navigation point to those other pages? Would that help? It might be useful so that way each subsection can have whatever explanations are required here, thus important distinctions such as with the tilesets that need different RAWs will be noticed before someone dives into the repository. [[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 14:18, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

== Page name ==

<code>List of user character sets</code> is long and unnecessarily wordy. I propose <code>List of tilesets</code>. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 10:32, 30 May 2008 (EDT)
:Sounds like a good idea. Seconded. [[User:Isenhertz|Isenhertz]] 07:41, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

== New grid sizes ==

Will someone please explain to me how I can make a 960x300 (Markavian's) tileset work with the new grid sizes larger than 80:25? 96:60 used to work until I tried to us .40c, now it doesn't. --[[User:DDouble|DDouble]] 18:38, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

== Problem with Fullscreen ==
I changed the fullscreen settings in my init to 1280x400 like Aesomatica's 16x16 tileset says, but every time I start DF it gives me a 'Mode changed failed, switching to windowed' error, with or without blackspace. How do I get it to run full? --[[User:KittenyKat|KittenyKat]] 16:27, 2 March 2009 (EST)

:Edit: Checking several different tilesets, for some reason none of them want to work fullscreen other than curses.. I'm wondering if I screwed something up, or if I still just need different measurements.. D: --[[User:KittenyKat|KittenyKat]] 17:20, 2 March 2009 (EST)

::Edit 2: Nevermind, I figured out the problem and now I just feel like a doofus for not recognizing it sooner :p To those who also end up with this problem, here is the solution: you have to set the fullscreen resolution to one your monitor can actually support. Matching the listed res is nice if it works cause it makes everything big and easy to see without stretching it if you have black space off, but if your monitor can't go to 400 Y for example, then you should just go to your current desktop res (in my case 1280x1024) and turn black space on.. Tweak to taste. I'm certain others can clarify this better, though :) --[[User:KittenyKat|KittenyKat]] 17:47, 2 March 2009 (EST)

== Tileset Transparency ==
So, I learned that 0.28.181.40d11 (And possibly earlier versions) supports png format files natively. I know that pngs support an alpha layer (transparency). I tested how transparency works in 40d11 and was quite pleased with the results. Basically, when you add an alpha layer to the png, the magenta color is no longer considered the 'transparent' color, but this allows you to add shading to the transparent color, like for barrels (which has a black normal color and a brown background color). So, white to black shades the normal color, alpha to black shades the background color. Just wanted to share! [[User:Belathus|Belathus]] 07:23, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
:I tried dabbling with this recently ("dabbling tileset artist" ftw!) but I haven't been able to get pngs to work at all. The game simply doesn't load. Is there a link to any discussions on the Bay12 forums about this? I tried searching but didn't find anything there [[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 15:04, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::I see now what I was doing wrong. Belathus was referring to early release 11 which is part of an open-source project towards using OpenGL as the DF graphics engine, which should allow PNGs. They are now up to 16 now and the testing is being managed by [http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=40349.405 Baughn on the forums]. Depending on the success of the testing, Toady One might put it into the next version, but people need to help test it. So go there and help dammit!! [[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 01:48, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

==Standard preview==
I can't seem to find it anywhere, but where is the fort many of you have been using for a standard preview? I'm talking about the one pictured in Lord Nightmare, Markavian, Zaratustra, and Herrbdog's previews. I feel a bit out of place with my tilesets and no direct means of comparison. --[[User:Kein|Kein]] 15:40, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

==Adding a date field==
Some of these entries are quite old, dating back to the ol' Boatmurdered days. Many more are based on the old classics, and generally say so, but right now it's hard to find the difference between a new entry and an old one. Someone, (ok, me) should find the date stamps on the graphics and add it to the description. Barring any objections, I'll start adding them tomorrow... --[[User:3lB33|3lB33]] 01:42, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

== Request ==
I'm quite intrigued by the graphical 16x16 tilesets, such as Aesomatica's, but have one minor problem - my monitor only supports up to 1024x756, meaning that the 1280x400 resolution required is way too big for my monitor. Since I won't be able to get a larger monitor for a while yet, would it be possible to add in a section for 12x12 tilesets for the slightly smaller resolutions, or do you not think it's really worth it? --[[User:Libelnon|Libelnon]] 22:47, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

== d40 and DF2010 Split? ==

Should we just save what is here, and split off a new page for DF2010-compatible tilesets?--[[User:TarrVetus|TarrVetus]] 15:08, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Shouldn't all of them be compatible? if not, there should definitely be a split. I've been trying to get some of the 16x16 tilesets to work on my laptop, but I haven't been able to find one that works, i think I've changed my init.txt correctly but I just get blurry crap on the intro video. (UTC)

:This may be a bug. There seems to be problems with tilesets in the initial release. I'd wait for the release to get some bugfixes before making a decision. It would be truly bizarre if Toady One changed the necessary inputs for changed tilesets. --[[User:Squirrelloid|Squirrelloid]] 17:28, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
::All of the tilesets I've played with work correctly; I think only graphics sets need to be split due to the changes to the raws. It sounds to me like you might have the resolution set funny in init.txt. -- [[User:Dark T Zeratul|Dark T Zeratul]] 17:35, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
:::They're all compatible? Oh thank Armok! I was under the impression the tilesets were dead. I'm configuring my old one immediately! --[[User:TarrVetus|TarrVetus]] 21:48, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

:::You're welcome. [[User:Armok|Armok]] 06:01, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

== Pink? ==

I uploaded a new tileset(Guybrush_square_16x16), but it messed up the colors, turning most stuff pink, them some things other colors. Anyone know how to fix this?
 
Its odd, I tried to do the same thing with one of my new tilesets and had the same issue. I had problems with a 16x16 tileset in the .png format, but DF interpreted it correctly after converting it to .bmp and using that instead. [[User:Coaldiamond|-Coaldiamond]] 22:56, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

== Edited Raws ==

Only a few of the tilesets In the "16×16 tilesets for edited raws" section explain exactly how the raws should be edited. Is there a standard set of "edited raws" or does each tileset have different requirements? Shouldn't those requirements be spelt our somewhere? As it stands I have no idea how to install most of these tilesets.

:Several of the tilesets use the edited raws of the [http://mayday.w.staszic.waw.pl/df.php mayday tileset], others will need specific raws - sadly information about this is often lacking.
:The edited raws for most of these tilesets are missing (at least for recent versions of df). If you want to use one of those tilesets you can edit the raws yourself with the [[Raw tile selector]]. There is still some work involved but it shouldn't be too bad. -- [[User:Hermano|Hermano]] 17:30, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

== Adding a tileset ==

I'm a wiki-noob. How do I add a tileset? I'm baffled by the image uploading thing. How do I do that?

Nevermind, figured it out. [[User:AbuDhabi|AbuDhabi]] 10:05, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

== Any chance to add another tileset? ==

I see the file upload is disabled now, but I'd really like to add [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=101657 one] or [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=101440 two] ASCII tilesets, both much like the classic, but in 24×24.

--[[User:Nagidal|Nagidal]] 11:11, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Is the file upload still disabled? It says I don't have permission to upload a file. Would like to add a tileset.

[[User:Larwick|Larwick]] ([[User talk:Larwick|talk]]) 18:11, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

:It's enabled, but you need to make 3 edits before you have permission to upload files (since it involves creating new pages).

Tileset repository

2014-07-23T18:56:54Z

Cheepicus: Group headers.

:''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[List of user graphics sets|Graphics set repository]].''

A '''character set''', or simply '''tileset''', is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics.

=Installation=
To install any of these tilesets, follow these steps:

# Download the tileset via right-click-save-as on the the tileset. The tileset is just an image, so there's no separate download link. (The list is [[Main:List of user character sets|here]])
# Convert it into a 24-bit BMP file (40d or earlier) or PNG file (v0.31+). Do NOT just change the extension to .bmp; you must use a program like MS paint to save it as a .bmp.
# Put it in the data/art directory of your Dwarf Fortress installation.
# Open data/init/init.txt
# If you want to use the tileset in fullscreen mode, locate and modify the [FULLSCREENX:800], [FULLSCREENY:600], and [FULLFONT:curses_800x600.bmp] configuration lines to match the specifications from the tileset list. The FULLFONT directive should match the filename of the tileset you downloaded. If you want to use the tileset in windowed mode, search for the [WINDOWEDX:640], [WINDOWEDY:300], and [FONT:curses_640x300.bmp] lines instead, and change them to the correct values.
# It is also recommended you keep [BLACK_SPACE:YES] to prevent stretching of the graphics.
# Save the .txt file, then you're ready to play!

I intended to make a 10×10 version of Pastiche, but I had to make countless little changes to maintain visual consistency between the two sizes. I finally gave up, called it a new font, and changed some more stuff just because!

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

It's just a little brighter and with some very slight changes. The tileset shown is a tileset with graphic objects added, for use with Fortress Mode.

I recommend to have a look at the [[color schemes|color schemes page]] to find your favorite color settings. The color scheme I used for the screenshots is [[Color_Schemes#.28Yet.29_Another_scheme|this one]].}}

The only ones that seem to work are the dwarves which I took from Flying Mage / Guybrush. The pretty 3Dish fonts as well just seem to look muddier and be less legible.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page]. This will greatly speed progress, since I won't be doing it just for myself. Note: The [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 DFFD version] is updated more frequently and has the changelist.

Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

This tileset contains the best graphic tiles (in my opinion) that were collected from many other tilesets and other games; I took [[User:Lemunde|Lemunde's]] tileset as a basis (thanx a lot, Lemunde). Some of tiles were drawn by me. Many tiles were reworked and improved with some additional colours. I hope you enjoy with this tiles. ;)

|comments=Impressed with the genius of using sprites as tiles, I cobbled together this tileset of my own. It uses Super Foul Egg's superb font as a base, with several sprites also found in other users' sets. Because a lot of letters are used for graphics, I suggest that you [[User:Jackard|remove accented letters from names]] with this set. I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)
V1 can still be found [[:Image:16x16_isenhertz_v1.png|here]].

|comments=This is a modified version of Mike Mayday's/Herrbdog's tileset. It has a more textured feel to the walls and makes heavy use of the new transparency features to make some of the tiles a little more dynamic. You can view a preview map [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-7000-dragonskull here]. I recommend changing the sky settings in the init.txt file to [SKY:249:1:0:0] for a more natural look.

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

Cheepicus: /* Cheepicus */

:''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[List of user graphics sets|Graphics set repository]].''

A '''character set''', or simply '''tileset''', is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics.

==Installation==
To install any of these tilesets, follow these steps:

# Download the tileset via right-click-save-as on the the tileset. The tileset is just an image, so there's no separate download link. (The list is [[Main:List of user character sets|here]])
# Convert it into a 24-bit BMP file (40d or earlier) or PNG file (v0.31+). Do NOT just change the extension to .bmp; you must use a program like MS paint to save it as a .bmp.
# Put it in the data/art directory of your Dwarf Fortress installation.
# Open data/init/init.txt
# If you want to use the tileset in fullscreen mode, locate and modify the [FULLSCREENX:800], [FULLSCREENY:600], and [FULLFONT:curses_800x600.bmp] configuration lines to match the specifications from the tileset list. The FULLFONT directive should match the filename of the tileset you downloaded. If you want to use the tileset in windowed mode, search for the [WINDOWEDX:640], [WINDOWEDY:300], and [FONT:curses_640x300.bmp] lines instead, and change them to the correct values.
# It is also recommended you keep [BLACK_SPACE:YES] to prevent stretching of the graphics.
# Save the .txt file, then you're ready to play!

== Square tilesets ==

These are all the character sets with square tiles, except for the character sets with 16×16 tiles. Those are listed [[List_of_user_character_sets#16.C3.9716_tilesets|below]]. Text in square tilesets (as opposed to tilesets with shorter width) is usually more difficult to read, but the map is not distorted.

|author=[[User:Anikki|Anikki]]
|dated=2008-7-27
|size=8×8
|resolution=640×200 native.
|comments=Based on the original IBM CGA Character set with a lot of tweaks. The characters remain as descriptive yet universal as possible. I chose the CGA set because it is in my opinion the square set with the best readability. This set is for those who like the basic ASCII look where every pixel has meaning or (multiple meanings).

There is also an upscaled [[#Anikki_2|16x16 version]] of this set available for fullscreen use below.

|comments=Much like [[Tileset_repository#Hanuman|Hanuman's conversion]], this is based on the default curses_640x300 tileset, converted to 12x12. There are no significant modifications to the tiles, smoothing, etc - just some cosmetic changes mostly to take advantage of 4 extra horizontal pixels. For people who like the original tileset's look and size but want a square version of it.

Contains several of Tocky's tiles (barrels, some trees, dimple cups, coins, slightly modified armor stand). Others are either made by me or adjusted from curses_800x600 tiles.

|size=8×8
|resolution=640×200 @ 80×25.
|comments=I like packing as much on the screen as I can, but 8×8 is just too crowded for 1920×1080 fullscreen. I intended to make a 10×10 version of Pastiche, but I had to make countless little changes to maintain visual consistency between the two sizes. I finally gave up, called it a new font, and changed some more stuff just because! Like Pastiche, Potash is a pure ASCII/CP437 font, suitable for use outside of Dwarf Fortress should you happen to find yourself stuck in 1985.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

A special emphasis is placed on maximizing the text's readability, while still providing a "graphics enhanced" play area. Special thanks to Maus for the font, and Guybrush for the inspiration.

So my first try was to apply a solid background to all tiles of Talryth square tileset ( except few ones ), but it came out looking like a bunch of vermins swimming in a goblin's vomit... anyway i tried further and began to experiment with different base tilesets and finally made my own, using elements from tilesets of other authors ( mainly Tocky's one, big thanks to him! ). Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

== 16×16 tilesets ==

The 16×16 tilesets are a subset of square character sets. 16×16 is a frequently used size, as shown by the number of tilesets in this section. This is probably because all of the best creature graphics sets use 16×16 tiles. Those alternate sets for creatures can be found at [[graphics sets]]. '''If your screen is too small for these, turn on BLACK_SPACE!'''

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page]. This will greatly speed progress, since I won't be doing it just for myself. Note: The [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 DFFD version] is updated more frequently and has the changelist.

== 16×16 tilesets for edited raws==
:''If you cannot find the altered raws of a tileset for your version of Dwarf Fortress have a look at the [[Raw tile selector]] tool.''

These tilesets require modified [[raws]] to work properly. Specifically, the tile numbers assigned to some objects (critters, stones, plants) need to be changed and accented characters usually need to be removed from all languages.

I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

|size=9×14
|resolution=720×350
|comments=The IBM EGA character set, dumped from the 6277356 IBM EGA BIOS ROM. This font is as would be displayed on an EGA/VGA with the 9-pixel-width mode enabled. Best for a 72:35 aspect ratio. The required resolution is strange, so run fullscreen with BLACK_SPACE:YES and resolution at 640x480. This font is actually different from the 8x14 version in that 20 characters have been replaced with the original MDA wide versions. These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign. Other than these characters, all characters are the same, with rightmost-row duplicated on the C and D rows like the MDA (though I don't actually know if this is technically correct).

|comments=The original? IBM VGA 8x16 character set, (from http://madscientistroom.org/fpga/default-8x16-bram.html) as would be displayed on a VGA card with the 9-pixel-width disabled. Best for an 8:5 aspect ratio. The required resolution is strange, so run fullscreen with BLACK_SPACE:YES and resolution at 640x480. This rom has not yet been dumped from a real VGA card, and is coming from a secondary source, so it may be replaced later if I find the real font is different.

Updated new glyphs to be more consistent with the Fixedsys style. - v2.1 - update a few more glyphs, namely the integral, the infinity symbol, and the spade, and a few others I'm forgetting. - v2.2 - update the club and spade, and the music notes - v2.3 - fix the fact that 0xF9 and 0xFA were inadvertently swapped.

After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abeyverse succession game.

Cheepicus: Added cheepicus_8x8x2

:''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[List of user graphics sets|Graphics set repository]].''

A '''character set''', or simply '''tileset''', is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics.

==Installation==
To install any of these tilesets, follow these steps:

# Download the tileset via right-click-save-as on the the tileset. The tileset is just an image, so there's no separate download link. (The list is [[Main:List of user character sets|here]])
# Convert it into a 24-bit BMP file (40d or earlier) or PNG file (v0.31+). Do NOT just change the extension to .bmp; you must use a program like MS paint to save it as a .bmp.
# Put it in the data/art directory of your Dwarf Fortress installation.
# Open data/init/init.txt
# If you want to use the tileset in fullscreen mode, locate and modify the [FULLSCREENX:800], [FULLSCREENY:600], and [FULLFONT:curses_800x600.bmp] configuration lines to match the specifications from the tileset list. The FULLFONT directive should match the filename of the tileset you downloaded. If you want to use the tileset in windowed mode, search for the [WINDOWEDX:640], [WINDOWEDY:300], and [FONT:curses_640x300.bmp] lines instead, and change them to the correct values.
# It is also recommended you keep [BLACK_SPACE:YES] to prevent stretching of the graphics.
# Save the .txt file, then you're ready to play!

== Square tilesets ==

These are all the character sets with square tiles, except for the character sets with 16×16 tiles. Those are listed [[List_of_user_character_sets#16.C3.9716_tilesets|below]]. Text in square tilesets (as opposed to tilesets with shorter width) is usually more difficult to read, but the map is not distorted.

There are no significant modifications to the tiles, smoothing, etc - just some cosmetic changes mostly to take advantage of 4 extra horizontal pixels.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

|comments= I always liked the simplicity and feeling of ASCII tilesets but at the same time i really missed solid backgrounds and some interesting tiles from graphical tilesets. So my first try was to apply a solid background to all tiles of Talryth square tileset ( except few ones ), but it came out looking like a bunch of vermins swimming in a goblin's vomit... anyway i tried further and began to experiment with different base tilesets and finally made my own, using elements from tilesets of other authors ( mainly Tocky's one, big thanks to him! ). Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

== 16×16 tilesets ==

The 16×16 tilesets are a subset of square character sets. 16×16 is a frequently used size, as shown by the number of tilesets in this section. This is probably because all of the best creature graphics sets use 16×16 tiles. Those alternate sets for creatures can be found at [[graphics sets]]. '''If your screen is too small for these, turn on BLACK_SPACE!'''

|comments=Tileset intended to build upon [[User:Sphr|Sphr's]] and [[User:Jackard|Jackard's]] work, as well as others. Some tiles are original, some are variants and most are copied from various sets the author found pleasing. Notable originals include the broken bolt/ashes tiles, the ballista heads/large hills, the small hills, the ore (gear animation is pleasing, though axle animation is unimproved), ground tiles, and vermin. Also, bins look decent and up/down stairs look okay. This set looks its best with Sphr's graphics.

I chose the CGA set because it is in my opinion the square set with the best readability. This set is for those who like the basic ASCII look where every pixel has meaning or (multiple meanings). This is a scaled up version for fullscreen use. [http://www.anikki.com/share/df/Anikki_square_16x16.bmp Download the BMP]

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page].

You can view a preview map [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-7000-dragonskull here]. I recommend changing the sky settings in the init.txt file to [SKY:249:1:0:0] for a more natural look.

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

|comments=This is a 16x16 tileset based on Redjack and Flying Mage sets (and possible tiles taken from others that I've since lost track of - apologies). Some tiles are original or have been tweaked, mainly to provide a much more subtle background than most. A completely new character set is used to improve legibility, tweaked and anti-aliased for dark backgrounds.

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

This font is actually different from the 8x14 version in that 20 characters have been replaced with the original MDA wide versions. These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign. Other than these characters, all characters are the same, with rightmost-row duplicated on the C and D rows like the MDA (though I don't actually know if this is technically correct).

Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abeyverse succession game.

Updated 11/12/07 to de-fuzz uppercase letters, added serifs and clarified lowercase letters, made horizontal spacing consistent throughout character set, fixed one error in the double horizontal-left-right, single-vertical-up-down character, made exclamation points consistent, thinned out question mark and inverse question mark, sharpened sideways stemless arrows, clarified international characters, and clarified some greek letters. Since v2.0: fixed 'i' 'g', fixed Yen symbol, fixed smiley 0x01 to not have an extra line to its right, lowered the period and colon characters, fixed position of 'x'. Thanks to Markavian for ideas on how to improve the font, as well as an occasional character glyph.

:''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[List of user graphics sets|Graphics set repository]].''

A '''character set''', or simply '''tileset''', is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the main graphics.

==Installation==
To install any of these tilesets, follow these steps:

# Download the tileset via right-click-save-as on the the tileset. The tileset is just an image, so there's no separate download link. (The list is [[Main:List of user character sets|here]])
# Convert it into a 24-bit BMP file (40d or earlier) or PNG file (v0.31+). Do NOT just change the extension to .bmp; you must use a program like MS paint to save it as a .bmp.
# Put it in the data/art directory of your Dwarf Fortress installation.
# Open data/init/init.txt
# If you want to use the tileset in fullscreen mode, locate and modify the [FULLSCREENX:800], [FULLSCREENY:600], and [FULLFONT:curses_800x600.bmp] configuration lines to match the specifications from the tileset list. The FULLFONT directive should match the filename of the tileset you downloaded. If you want to use the tileset in windowed mode, search for the [WINDOWEDX:640], [WINDOWEDY:300], and [FONT:curses_640x300.bmp] lines instead, and change them to the correct values.
# It is also recommended you keep [BLACK_SPACE:YES] to prevent stretching of the graphics.
# Save the .txt file, then you're ready to play!

== Square tilesets ==

These are all the character sets with square tiles, except for the character sets with 16×16 tiles. Those are listed [[List_of_user_character_sets#16.C3.9716_tilesets|below]]. Text in square tilesets (as opposed to tilesets with shorter width) is usually more difficult to read, but the map is not distorted.

=== Anikki ===

|comments=Based on the original IBM CGA Character set with a lot of tweaks. The characters remain as descriptive yet universal as possible. I chose the CGA set because it is in my opinion the square set with the best readability. This set is for those who like the basic ASCII look where every pixel has meaning or (multiple meanings).

There are no significant modifications to the tiles, smoothing, etc - just some cosmetic changes mostly to take advantage of 4 extra horizontal pixels. For people who like the original tileset's look and size but want a square version of it.

|comments=I like packing as much on the screen as I can, but 8×8 is just too crowded for 1920×1080 fullscreen. I intended to make a 10×10 version of Pastiche, but I had to make countless little changes to maintain visual consistency between the two sizes. I finally gave up, called it a new font, and changed some more stuff just because! Like Pastiche, Potash is a pure ASCII/CP437 font, suitable for use outside of Dwarf Fortress should you happen to find yourself stuck in 1985.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

Then i have spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then i applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and i think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

== 16×16 tilesets ==

The 16×16 tilesets are a subset of square character sets. 16×16 is a frequently used size, as shown by the number of tilesets in this section. This is probably because all of the best creature graphics sets use 16×16 tiles. Those alternate sets for creatures can be found at [[graphics sets]].

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page]. This will greatly speed progress, since I won't be doing it just for myself. Note: The [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 DFFD version] is updated more frequently and has the changelist.

== 16×16 tilesets for edited raws==
:''If you cannot find the altered raws of a tileset for your version of Dwarf Fortress have a look at the [[Raw tile selector]] tool.''

These tilesets require modified [[raws]] to work properly. Specifically, the tile numbers assigned to some objects (critters, stones, plants) need to be changed and accented characters usually need to be removed from all languages.

I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

This font is actually different from the 8x14 version in that 20 characters have been replaced with the original MDA wide versions. These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign. Other than these characters, all characters are the same, with rightmost-row duplicated on the C and D rows like the MDA (though I don't actually know if this is technically correct).

{{quality|Masterwork|02:44, 08 November 2010 (UTC)}}
:''The term '''flow''' can be used to refer to several completely different things in Dwarf Fortress: things like [[miasma]] and [[smoke]], and the mechanism by which [[water]] and [[magma]] move. This article describes the latter.''

'''Flow''' is a game mechanic used to simulate the motion of '''fluids'''. The two fluids that exist in dwarf fortress currently are '''[[water]]''' and '''[[magma]]'''. You can identify fluids that are flowing by looking for a tile that is blinking between {{Tile|≈|1:0:1}} and {{Tile|~|1:0:1}} tiles. If you have turned on [[Technical_tricks#Tiles|SHOW_FLOW_AMOUNTS]] you will see the fluid '''depth''' indicator of {{Tile|1|1:0:1}} through {{Tile|7|1:0:1}} instead and will not be able to easily tell if the game considers a tile to be flowing or not. Flow is typically present any time a fluid is in motion, but there are some exceptions which confuse things a bit.
*Note: In the current release flow does not seem to appear in magma. Magma follows the same rules of fluid motion and flow, it simply doesn't have flow in the sense that would allow it to power a water wheel.

==Basic Fluid Motion==
'''[[Water]]''' and '''[[magma]]''' both move in much the same way following a fairly simple set of rules. The only difference between the motion of [[magma]] and water is that magma behaves differently with regards to [[pressure]].

Fluids move mostly as one might expect: they will fall straight down if they can, or else they will spread out to the sides. Fluids can flow diagonally on the same z-level, but will never move sideways and down at the same time. Under basic fluid motion, fluid never moves back up, but it can appear to do so if pressure is involved.

Here is a quick example of how fluids can move to adjacent tiles. Also as water moves to an adjacent tile flow is generated in both tiles. This flow will remain for a short time before reverting back to being non-flowing water. In the first example of falling water all of the water is removed from the source tile, so flow only appears below where the water has moved to. In the other two examples flow will appear in both tiles.

'''Before (side view)'''
▒7▒ ▒7▒ ▒
▒ ▒ ▒2▒ ▒7
▒▒▒ ▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒

'''After (side view)'''
▒ ▒ ▒2▒ ▒
▒7▒ ▒7▒ ▒43
▒▒▒ ▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒

*1. Fluids move down
*2. Fluids spread out to the sides

These rules are incomplete, however, without consideration of [[pressure]].

==Fluids under pressure, aka Teleportation==

Magma, which has no natural pressure, flows according to the rules of basic fluid motion. Water, however, can move by pressure when it falls down on top of full 7/7 water. In addition, pumps create pressure in both water and magma, and water entering the map at from a stream or river follows pressure as well.

Fluids moving under '''[[pressure]]''' do not just move to adjacent tiles, they also trace a path through other full tiles of fluid trying to move to more distant tiles. Fluids moving under [[pressure]] can effectively teleport through other tiles that are already filled with fluid. When teleporting, fluids still only generate flow in their source and destination tiles, NOT in any tiles they skipped over to get to their destination. Also fluids that are teleporting will not push objects in tiles they skip over.

▒7▒ ▒ ▒~▒ ▒
'''Before''' ▒7▒ ▒ ▒~▒ ▒
▒777▒ ▒<nowiki>~~~</nowiki>▒
▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒

▒ ▒ ▒ ▒ ▒ ▒
'''After''' ▒7▒7▒ ▒~▒≈▒ ≈ flowing fluid
▒777▒ ▒<nowiki>~~~</nowiki>▒ ~ non-flowing fluid
▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒

This is a simple u-bend example of how water moves under pressure. However with regards to flow, it does something strange. Notice that flow only occurs in the destination tile here (since the source tile has been removed). The fluids in the bottom of the u-bend are unaffected, and furthermore any objects that happen to be here are not pushed either.

When a fluid tries to move by pressure, it tries to trace a path through full 7/7 fluids going down, and horizontally, but ''not'' diagonally. In this way it is like basic flow, except that pressure works faster; fluid from the source is teleported to the open space at the end, rather than having to wait for open space to open up at the source via normal flow. This is why, for example, diagonal squeezes in channels can make water flow slower, and why rivers and streams on the map are usually full of 7/7 water until close to the edge of the map where the rules of basic fluid motion are draining the water off the map while pressure teleports new water from the source all the way down to the end.

What's more, unlike basic flow, the path pressure traces can even go back up--but never higher than the z-level of the first 7/7 tile on the path it was tracing. So it may appear that pressure 'pushes fluids up', but in fact it's only teleporting fluid to a level even or lower.

Thus the result is that pressure movement of fluids (especially water) is common and doesn't create very much flow. However rivers and streams still seem to have some kind of flow that powers water wheels, called natural flow.

==Fluid Displacement by Cave-in, aka Pistons==
:''(see also '''[[magma piston]])'''''

There's one way to push a fluid higher than its starting level, but it might be considered a bug on the flow mechanics and probably will be changed in following versions since allows for what could be considered exploits.

A ''natural'' wall of any material{{verify}} '''[[cave-in|falling]]''' onto both water ''or'' '''[[magma]]''' will teleport each tile of displaced fluid to open space directly above it:

when done in an u-bend example the pushing above original fluid level can be easily appreciated, although it breaks the laws of regular fluid physics:

this is the basic principle that the '''[[magma piston]]''' exploit, if you want to prevent a future fix or simply want to simulate regular physics fluid behaviour, you can do something like this:

basically it involves dropping a giant ''(minimum size 3x3x1)'' donut/cylinder/tube of natural walls onto the fluid pool, given that it will teleport a donut/cylinder/tube of fluid in the same way ''(step 1)'' but after it spreads ''(step 2)'' it'll seem that the fluid actually went through the opening in the middle of the donut/cylinder/tube like a real fluid should behave, of course one exception it won't be pushed through the right tube like it should, you'll probably want to close the tile marked with a question mark "?" so it can give the impression of real fluid mechanics.

==Natural Flow==
Many water sources such as [[river]]s and [[brook]]s are constantly flowing with '''natural flow'''. This is different from other flow effects in that it is always considered to be flowing water. This remains true even when the water flows into a complete dead end channel or even when blocked off with a floodgate. Any channels that link up to a naturally flowing source will soon become naturally flowing water as long as they remain on the same z-level. Diagonal steps have no effect on natural flow although they can be used to change [[pressure]].

Trying to move natural flow up or down to a different z-level may have unpredictable results but in most cases this will break the natural flow effect resulting in still water that can only be made to flow by artificial means.

Naturally flowing water, depending on its environment, flows in a specific direction - when SHOW_FLOW_AMOUNTS is disabled, water which flows directly into a wall will flash white while other water remains blue. This flow direction is important to note, since it affects the operation of [[water wheel]]s: water which flows directly north or south will not power an east/west-aligned water wheel, and the opposite is also true. Diagonally flowing water, however, works for everything.

==Fluid Depth==
Fluids can have a depth anywhere from 1 to 7. To see the depth of a tile of fluid you can look at it with {{k|k}} which will reveal the depth in the text at the right. Alternatively you can enable SHOW_FLOW_AMOUNTS which will replace the {{Tile|≈|1:0:1}} and {{Tile|~|1:0:1}} tiles with a numerical representation of the depth at all times. Turning on SHOW_FLOW_AMOUNTS does come with the drawback that you will no longer be able to see if a tile is flowing or not.

==Obstructions==
Water can be stopped by most solid tiles. These include [[wall]]s and [[building]]s as well as closed [[floodgate]]s, [[door]]s, and [[hatch]]es. Exceptions are vertical [[grate]]s, vertical [[bars]], and [[fortification]]s, which will allow fluids to pass freely.

==Evaporation==
Fluids that remain at a depth of 1/7 for long enough will evaporate. Evaporated fluids are simply removed from the game. In '''hot''' or '''scorching''' environments, [[murky pool]]s can evaporate at greater depths.

==Bugs==
*Flows may cause items to disappear {{Bug|895}}
*Smears and blood will multiply when in the presence of flows {{Bug|296}}

Cheepicus: /* Cheepicus */ Add my 15x15 set why not.

''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[List of user graphics sets|Graphics set repository]].''

== Square tilesets ==

These are all the character sets with square tiles, except for the character sets with 16×16 tiles. Those are listed [[List_of_user_character_sets#16.C3.9716_tilesets|below]]. Text in square tilesets (as opposed to tilesets with shorter width) is usually more difficult to read, but the map is not distorted.

An attempt to fill the void of "graphic heavy" tilesets in the 18x18 tile-size. A special emphasis is placed on maximizing the text's readability, while still providing a "graphics enhanced" play area. Special thanks to Maus for the font, and Guybrush for the inspiration.

With everything else, I just tried to maximize clarity and readability and to keep them consistent. I'm really very pleased with how this set turned out.

== 16×16 tilesets ==

The 16×16 tilesets are a subset of square character sets. 16×16 is a frequently used size, as shown by the number of tilesets in this section. This is probably because all of the best creature graphics sets use 16×16 tiles. Those alternate sets for creatures can be found at [[graphics sets]].

Also, bins look decent and up/down stairs look okay. This set looks its best with Sphr's graphics.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page].

|comments=Impressed with the genius of using sprites as tiles, I cobbled together this tileset of my own. It uses Super Foul Egg's superb font as a base, with several sprites also found in other users' sets. Because a lot of letters are used for graphics, I suggest that you [[User:Jackard|remove accented letters from names]] with this set. I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)
V1 can still be found [[:Image:16x16_isenhertz_v1.png|here]].

|comments=This is a modified version of Mike Mayday's/Herrbdog's tileset. It has a more textured feel to the walls and makes heavy use of the new transparency features to make some of the tiles a little more dynamic. You can view a preview map [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-7000-dragonskull here]. I recommend changing the sky settings in the init.txt file to [SKY:249:1:0:0] for a more natural look.

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

This font is actually different from the 8x14 version in that 20 characters have been replaced with the original MDA wide versions. These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign. Other than these characters, all characters are the same, with rightmost-row duplicated on the C and D rows like the MDA (though I don't actually know if this is technically correct).

Cheepicus: /* Magma Flow */

=== Ocean Flow ===
Will an ocean power a water wheel?--[[User:Mana eater|Anachron]] 13:20, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

== Magma Flow ==

I'm considering modifying the note on flow in magma but I'm not sure how. Magma flows in the sense that it moves like a liquid, and has no pressure. It also doesn't blink between a wave and a double wave when flowing, and you can't test if it follows the flow mechanics because water wheels burn up in magma. What exactly requires verification in it is unclear, as well. Is it just the fact that magma doesn't blink when flowing, or the fact that it follows flow mechanics? --[[User:Eurytus|Eurytus]] 12:44, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
:Perhaps this could be tested by modding up magma-proof wood? [[User:Cheepicus|Cheepicus]] 23:27, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
::I did this, and the waterwheels doesn't budge. It still might be that pumped magma produces 'flow' in the target square -- if indeed it does that at all for water, which I'm not sure if I believe. [[User:Cheepicus|Cheepicus]] 09:36, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Cheepicus: Make info about pressure less misleading

{{av}}
{{Quality|Exceptional|19:06, 6 July 2010 (UTC)}}
Reading from the raw files you will find that all water and magma/lava in the game are called flows. This however adds a certain amount of confusion since when you trying to {{l|power}} a {{l|waterwheel}} you also need to know if your flow of water is flowing. For the purpose of clarity water and magma will instead be referred to as '''fluids''', and '''flow''' will be saved for a fluid that is in motion.

'''Flow''' is a game mechanic used to simulate the motion of '''fluids'''. The two fluids that exist in dwarf fortress currently are '''{{l|water}}''' and '''{{l|magma}}'''. You can identify fluids that are flowing by looking for a tile that is blinking between {{Tile|≈|1:0:1}} and {{Tile|~|1:0:1}} tiles. If you have turned on SHOW_FLOW_AMOUNTS you will see the fluid '''depth''' instead and will not be able to easily tell if the game considers a tile to be flowing or not. Flow is typically present any time a fluid is in motion, but there are some exceptions which confuse things a bit.
*Note: In the current release flow does not seem to appear in magma. Magma does still follow the usual rules of fluid motion, it simply doesn't blink. {{verify}}

==Basic Fluid Motion==
'''{{l|Water}}''' and '''{{l|magma}}''' both move in much the same way following a fairly simple set of rules. The only difference between the motion of {{l|magma}} and water is that magma behaves differently with regards to {{l|pressure}}.

Fluids move mostly as one might expect: they will fall straight down if they can, or else they will spread out to the sides. Fluids can flow diagonally on the same z-level, but will never move sideways and down at the same time. Under basic fluid motion, fluid never moves back up, but it can appear to do so if pressure is involved.

Here is a quick example of how fluids can move to adjacent tiles. Also as water moves to an adjacent tile flow is generated in both tiles. This flow will remain for a short time before reverting back to being non-flowing water. In the first example of falling water all of the water is removed from the source tile, so flow only appears below where the water has moved to. In the other two examples flow will appear in both tiles.

▒7▒ ▒7▒ ▒
'''Before''' ▒ ▒ ▒2▒ ▒7
▒▒▒ ▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒

▒ ▒ ▒2▒ ▒
'''After''' ▒7▒ ▒7▒ ▒43
▒▒▒ ▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒

*1. Fluids move down
*2. Fluids spread out to the sides

These rules are incomplete, however, without consideration of {{l|pressure}}.

==Fluids under pressure aka. Teleportation==

Magma, which has no natural pressure, flows according to the rules of basic fluid motion. Water, however, can move by pressure when it falls down on top of full 7/7 water. In addition, pumps create pressure in both water and magma, and water entering the map at from a stream or river follows pressure as well.

Fluids moving under '''{{l|pressure}}''' do not just move to adjacent tiles, they also trace a path through other full tiles of fluid trying to move to more distant tiles. Fluids moving under {{l|pressure}} can effectively teleport through other tiles that are already filled with fluid. When teleporting, fluids still only generate flow in their source and destination tiles, NOT in any tiles they skipped over to get to their destination. Also fluids that are teleporting will not push objects in tiles they skip over.

▒7▒ ▒ ▒~▒ ▒
'''Before''' ▒7▒ ▒ ▒~▒ ▒
▒777▒ ▒<nowiki>~~~</nowiki>▒
▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒

▒ ▒ ▒ ▒ ▒ ▒
'''After''' ▒7▒7▒ ▒~▒≈▒ ≈ flowing fluid
▒777▒ ▒<nowiki>~~~</nowiki>▒ ~ non-flowing fluid
▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒

This is a simple u-bend example of how water moves under pressure. However with regards to flow, it does something strange. Notice that flow only occurs in the destination tile here (since the source tile has been removed). The fluids in the bottom of the u-bend are unaffected, and furthermore any objects that happen to be here are not pushed either.

When a fluid tries to move by pressure, it tries to trace a path through full 7/7 fluids going down, and horizontally, but ''not'' diagonally. In this way it is like basic flow, except that pressure works faster; fluid from the source is teleported to the open space at the end, rather than having to wait for open space to open up at the source via normal flow. This is why, for example, diagonal squeezes in channels can make water flow slower, and why rivers and streams on the map are usually full of 7/7 water until close to the edge of the map where the rules of basic fluid motion are draining the water off the map while pressure teleports new water from the source all the way down to the end.

What's more, unlike basic flow, the path pressure traces can even go back up--but never higher than the z-level of the first 7/7 tile on the path it was tracing. So it may appear that pressure 'pushes fluids up', but in fact it's only teleporting fluid to a level even or lower.

Thus the result is that pressure movement of fluids (especially water) is common and doesn't create very much flow. However rivers and streams still seem to have some kind of flow that powers waterwheels, called natural flow.

==Natural Flow==
Many water sources such as {{l|river}}s and {{l|brook}}s are constantly flowing with '''natural flow'''. This is different from other flow effects in that it is always considered to be flowing water. This remains true even when the water flows into a complete dead end channel or even when blocked off with a floodgate. Any channels that link up to a naturally flowing source will soon become naturally flowing water as long as they remain on the same z-level. Diagonal steps have no effect on natural flow although they can be used to change {{l|pressure}}.

Trying to move natural flow up or down to a different z-level may have unpredictable results but in most cases this will break the natural flow effect resulting in still water that can only be made to flow by artificial means.

==Fluid Depth==
Fluids can have a depth anywhere from 1 to 7. To see the depth of a tile of fluid you can look at it with {{k|k}} which will reveal the depth in the text at the right. Alternatively you can enable {{l|Technical_tricks#The_look_of_the_game|SHOW_FLOW_AMOUNTS}} which will replace the {{Tile|≈|1:0:1}} and {{Tile|~|1:0:1}} tiles with a numerical representation of the depth at all times. Turning on {{l|Technical_tricks#The_look_of_the_game|SHOW_FLOW_AMOUNTS}} does come with the drawback that you will no longer be able to see if a tile is flowing or not.

==Obstructions==
Water can be stopped by most solid tiles. These include {{l|wall}}s and {{l|building}}s as well as closed {{l|floodgate}}s, {{l|door}}s, and {{l|hatch}}es. Exceptions are vertical {{l|grate}}s, vertical {{l|bars}}, and {{l|fortification}}s, which will allow fluids to pass freely.

==Evaporation==
Fluids that remain at a depth of 1/7 for long enough will evaporate. Evaporated fluids are simply removed from the game. In '''hot''' or '''scorching''' environments, {{L|murky pool}}s can evaporate at greater depths.

Fluids (water and magma) in Dwarf Fortress normally flow in a predictable way, "spilling" and spreading out, and flowing down. However, there is another way these fluids can move--pressure--which can be mystifying, unexpected, and Fun.

It is tempting to think of pressure in terms of bodies of fluid being 'pressurized' or 'pushed around' by pressure, but it is more useful to think of pressure as something that happens to a single individual "block" of fluid, moving it to a possibly distant location, like teleportation.

== Creating Pressure ==

A single "block" of fluid will try to move by pressure when it is created or moved one of the following ways, *and the target space is already full (7/7) of the fluid*:

1) Water falling down a level.
2) A pump pumping water OR magma up to a level.
3) Water being created, moving onto the map, as in the source of a river or stream on the map's edge.

== Moving via Pressure ==

When, as above, the moving block of fluid wants to move or be created by the target space is full, pressure kicks in and attempts to teleport the fluid somewhere else connected to the body of fluid.

So the game looks for a path to move the block. This path:
1) Will only travel through spaces full (7/7) of the fluid,
2) Can span Z-levels, but
3) Only travels orthogonally (north, south, east, west, favoring those before going down, and possible going up), and
4) Will *not* go up above the Z-level of the space *into which it was originally trying to move*.

The search for this path can fail, in which case the movement doesn't happen; the water does not fall, the pump does not pump, and new water is not created.

== Behavior ==

Given the above, some strange behaviors emerge:

=== Water will flow around a U-bend, but magma will not ===
This is because falling magma does not create pressure.

=== Pumps can make magma move via pressure ===
This is just the way it is.

=== Diagonal motions of water "remove pressure" ===
This is because the path to find a place to move fluid by pressure will not go diagonally.

=== Water falling from level Z can move via pressure only up to level Z+1 ===
That's because it's trying to move into the space on level Z+1, so that is the starting level of the pressure move.

=== A pump on level Z will fill up to level Z ===
That's because the fluid is trying to move to the output of the pump, which is on level Z.

=== Water flowing through a U-bend equalizes with the far side lower, or exactly even ===
That's because the last bit of water is trying to fall down to level Z, and pressure cannot move it back up to the level it's falling from.

=== A river tapped for water will fill a reservoir up to one Z-level lower than the river source... ===
This is because when a river is flowing normally, water that is created on the edge will move via pressure far downstream to fill some of the open space where the water is draining. Pressure will find these spots before it paths down through any U-bends.

=== ... but if the river is dammed, it will fill the reservoir up to the Z-level of the river ===
When the river is dammed, the usual open space downstream is gone, so pressure will now start to look downwards for paths that can possibly lead to your reservoir system, and back up to the Z-level of the river. Any pressure you see in your reservoir system *before* that is due to falling water pressure, not pressure from the source of the river.

----

'''Tilesets''' are images the game uses to display its graphics; each tile is used to show text and represent things. Users create custom tilesets for a number of reasons, including increased visibility, aesthetics, or small size. Tilesets come in two flavors: "'''character sets'''" (or simply "tilesets") and "'''graphics sets'''".

== Overview and installation ==

=== Character sets ===

A character set is an image in BMP format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII), which are used to display the main graphics. [[List of user character sets|Here is the list]] of user-made standard tilesets. To install any of these tilesets, follow these steps:

# Download the tileset via right-click-save-as on the the tileset. The tileset is just an image, so there's no separate download link. (The list is [[List of user character sets|here]])
# Convert it into a 24-bit BMP fileV0.28.181.40d file or PNG filev0.31.06. Do NOT just change the extension to .bmp; you must use a program like MS paint to save it as a .bmp.
# Put it in the data/art directory of your Dwarf Fortress installation.
# Open data/init/init.txt
# If you want to use the tileset in fullscreen mode, locate and modify the [FULLSCREENX:800], [FULLSCREENY:600], and [FULLFONT:curses_800x600.bmp] configuration lines to match the specifications from the tileset list. The FULLFONT directive should match the filename of the tileset you downloaded. If you want to use the tileset in windowed mode, search for the [WINDOWEDX:640], [WINDOWEDY:300], and [FONT:curses_640x300.bmp] lines instead, and change them to the correct values.
# It is also recommended you keep [BLACK_SPACE:YES] to prevent stretching of the graphics.
# Save the .txt file, then you're ready to play!

=== Graphics sets ===

Character sets only change certain graphics, while others are left out. The confusingly-named [[graphics sets]] are used to change the appearance of [[creatures]] in the game, such as dwarves and unicorns. These are usually designed to work together with certain character sets. While Tilesets work the same as previous versions, Graphics Sets will have to be redone as the raws have changed.



== Custom tileset design ==

The default (and minimum) gameplay viewport is 80 characters wide, and 25 characters tall. Therefore, a tileset's target resolution will be TILE_X_LENGTH * 80 by TILE_Y_LENGTH * 25. Since the tileset is arranged into a 16x16 grid of tiles (256 tiles total), the tileset image size will be TILE_X_LENGTH * 16 by TILE_Y_LENGTH * 16. Here are some common tile sizes:

* A tileset with 10x12 tiles will be 160x192 pixels large, and the target resolution will be 800x300.
* A tileset with 16x16 tiles will be 256x256 pixels large, and the target resolution will be 1280x400.

When creating a custom tileset, it's often easiest to start with an existing one, and edit it to your liking. Tilesets generally fall into three categories: rectangular tilesets, square tilesets, and 16x16 square tilesets. Rectangular tilesets have tiles that are taller than they are wide. The text in these tilesets is generally easier to read, but the map appears squished horizontally. Square tilesets usually provide more attractive graphics, but are slightly less readable. The 16x16 square tilesets are just a sub-set, which are grouped together because most [[Object Tilesets]] use 16x16 tiles. The graphics in Dwarf Fortress can be somewhat diversified and enhanced through the use of graphics sets.

Many tiles are used by the game in multiple ways, and this makes customizing the graphics difficult. The same icon is used for chairs and the north end of one-tile-wide vertical bridges. Ashes and broken arrows look the same, and many game entities (such as levers, floodgates, bags, and bins) share characters that are also used in Dwarven names or other bits of text in the interface.



== What tiles are used for what ==

* Items marked with * can have their tile changed in the [[modding|raw data]] files.
* Items marked with # can have their tile replaced by a [[graphics set]] image, in addition to having their tile changed in the raw data.
* Items marked with $ can be changed in the [[init.txt]] file.

For a graphical table, go to the [[Character Table]].

Cheepicus: /* Identifying ramp direction */

Looks like someone just copied over the 40d stuff. Most of it is OK, but the section on Channeling vs ramps is not right.--[[User:Kwieland|Kwieland]] 13:42, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

When channeling over empty space miners may stand in the tile being channeled, falling to their doom. Perhaps a (bug) caution is warranted? Details: http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=826 I lost 6 miners to this before I figured out why...

Channeling issues fixed. But does anyone know if Downward Ramps can still disappear like they could have in 40d? --[[User:Aescula|Aescula]] 03:58, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

== Identifying ramp direction ==

Ramps have direction, as discussed in the article. However, looking around with K doesn't tell me which way the ramp is pointing. Is there an easy way to tell which way a ramp is pointed?--[[Special:Contributions/208.81.12.34|208.81.12.34]] 18:42, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

:Ramps don't really have direction as some kind of intrinsic thing; it depends on the surrounding squares. I tried to make the article more clear wrt this. [[User:Cheepicus|Cheepicus]] 10:20, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Cheepicus: Try to increase clarity

{{av}}
{{Quality|Exceptional}}

A '''ramp''' is a map feature that allows dwarves, {{l|wagon}}s, and other {{L|creatures}} to move between levels. When viewed with {{k|k}} they are called '''slopes''', and they occur naturally on most maps, acting as hillsides. Dwarves may make them by digging with {{k|d}} + {{k|r}} from below or with {{k|d}} + {{k|h}} from above, or construction with {{k|b}} + {{k|C}} + {{k|r}}.

Ramps were the only way that {{L|wagon}}s could move between levels in order to access a {{L|trade depot}} in previous versions. Caravans with wagons don't show up in the current version, but when this is fixed it is very likely that this behavior hasn't changed. So unless you build your depot above ground or set into a cliff, you will probably have to create ramps to allow access to it.

Ramps are shown with the ▲ symbol (pointing "up"). The space above a ramp is shown as a ▼ and called a "downward slope". A downward slope is not an independent feature (as opposed to a downward stair), but rather a counterpoint to the upward slope below it; it functions otherwise as open space -- the ▼ symbol is more of a display nicety than a type of terrain. When the rest of this article refers to ramps, the upward (▲) space is meant.

Note that ramps function similarly to {{L|floor}}s in that units can walk on them without any problems, even if they are over open space. They will also support adjacent buildings.

== Movement Using Ramps ==

[[File:invalidramp.png|200px|thumb|right|'''Example A:''' An unusable ramp]]

For the purposes of unit movement, a ramp connects the ramp bottom to the '''tops of walls adjacent to the ramp bottom'''. So unlike stairs, where a dwarf moves directly up or down, a dwarf moving via a ramp will change both horizontal and vertical location in a single move. This can make it seem like a ramp has "direction" or "flow" by itself, but in fact this depends entirely on the spaces adjacent to the ramp.

More formally, for a creature to use a ramp, all of the following are necessary:

# The space directly above the ramp must be open.
# The ramp must have a wall next to it.
# The space above one of the adjacent walls must be open.

If these conditions are met, creatures will be able to move back and forth between the ramp space and the walkable space above the adjacent wall.

'''Example A''' shows a situation where a ramp might be created that is actually unusable. Dwarfs cannot ascend or descend (or cross) the ramp as shown because the walkable spaces above the ramp are not walled underneath, therefore dwarves cannot move between the ramp bottom and the spaces by the top of the ramp. If walls were added under the upper floor spaces, the ramp would become usable.

{{Template:-}}

== Creating Ramps ==

Dwarves may {{L|construction|construct}} ramps out of building materials such as {{L|stone}}, {{L|wood}}, {{L|block}}s, and {{L|bar}}s, but it is more common to dig them from natural walls (see {{L|mining}}).

Digging ramps can be accomplished in two ways. Dwarves can carve ramps from adjacent spaces on the same z-level, and dwarves can {{L|channel}} from above, which will carve a ramp out of the natural wall below (if any). In both cases the space and floor above the ramp will be carved out as well to make an open space.

Note that dwarves will happily dig out or construct ramps that are not immediately usable. Check the criteria above if dwarves do not seem to be using the ramps they have made.

== Collapse ==

Natural or carved ramps that are adjacent to {{L|wall}}s will collapse (disappear) if those walls are mined out. This can strand dwarfs, so be careful when removing walls near those ramps. In addition, trying to carve a ramp under something that cannot be dug out (such as a {{L|construction}}, {{L|building}}, or {{L|tree}}) will result a slope, but leave the upper floor intact. This may create a {{L|cave-in}} situation dangerous to your miners.

Constructed ramps will not collapse, and it is possible to create carved free-standing ramps as well, but the ramps will still not be usable without adjacent walls.

== Removing Ramps ==

Natural and carved ramps can be destroyed via the designation menu using the Remove Up Stairs/Ramps selection ({{k|d}} -> {{k|z}}, using the ingame interface). Like the selection says, only upwards slopes (and carved stairs) can be removed in such a manner, and only from the same level as the (upward) ramp. Selecting a downwards ramp in such a manner has no effect, and removing the upward ramp will automatically remove the downward ramp designation from the level above, replacing it with "open space". Ramps at the edge of the map cannot be removed this way.

Constructed ramps can be removed like any other construction via the designation menu with the Remove Construction selection ({{k|d}} -> {{k|n}}, using the ingame interface).

== Ramps Versus Stairways ==

As explained above, ramps have important limitations, but if constructed correctly they can allow slightly faster movement than stairways. For example, if a dwarf wants to go down and to the north using a stairway, it will have to take two steps: one step down a stairway and one step to the north. Going to the same place using a ramp only requires 1 step.

== Ramps and Channeling ==

In previous versions, ramps were considered preferable to a large amount of channeling, since they would remove the floor above. However, in 2010, most situations with channeling will create a ramp instead of just open space.

However, channeling a single pillar of stone, or a floor without stone or dirt wall beneath, will still cause open space, and this can cause injuries to your {{L|miner}}s.

Cheepicus: Added tileset

''You may be looking for general information on [[tilesets]] or the [[List of user graphics sets|Graphics set repository]].''

== Square tilesets ==

These are all the character sets with square tiles, except for the character sets with 16×16 tiles. Those are listed [[List_of_user_character_sets#16.C3.9716_tilesets|below]]. Text in square tilesets (as opposed to tilesets with shorter width) is usually more difficult to read, but the map is not distorted.

== 16×16 tilesets ==

The 16×16 tilesets are a subset of square character sets. 16×16 is a frequently used size, as shown by the number of tilesets in this section. This is probably because all of the best creature graphics sets use 16×16 tiles. Those alternate sets for creatures can be found at [[graphics sets]]. '''If your screen is too small for these, turn on BLACK_SPACE!'''

Some tiles are original, some are variants and most are copied from various sets the author found pleasing. Notable originals include the broken bolt/ashes tiles, the ballista heads/large hills, the small hills, the ore (gear animation is pleasing, though axle animation is unimproved), ground tiles, and vermin. Also, bins look decent and up/down stairs look okay. This set looks its best with Sphr's graphics.

I did not use much of the pretty but confusing art I see in many of the other sets. I tried for a while to incorporate many of these but found that with the multiple uses for most characters they were just wrong far too often to be useful. The only ones that seem to work are the dwarves which I took from Flying Mage / Guybrush. The pretty 3Dish fonts as well just seem to look muddier and be less legible. I love it and my husband has been happily playing it for months.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page].

These tilesets are not square. Text in non-square tilesets often looks much better and is often much easier to read than in square tilesets, but square buildings do not appear square on the map.

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign. Other than these characters, all characters are the same, with rightmost-row duplicated on the C and D rows like the MDA (though I don't actually know if this is technically correct).

Cheepicus: /* Gem Setting */

{{quality|Tattered|08:00, 22 May 2010 (UTC)}}{{av}}

The '''gem industry''' deals with the processing of {{L|gem}}s. Like other {{L|Industry|industries}}, creates raw materials, {{L|finished goods}}, and can be used to enhance finished goods with {{L|decoration}}s. Because of the skills and materials involved, the gem industry is very closely tied to the {{L|glass industry}}.

==Jeweler's Workshop==
The {{L|jeweler's workshop}} is the heart of the gem industry. '''Rough gems''' are taken to the the jeweler's workshop, where dwarves with the {{L|Gem cutter}} skill turn the rough gems into '''cut gems''' or '''large gems.''' At the same workshop, a dwarf with the {{L|Gem setter}} skill can take the cut gems and use them to {{L|decoration|encrust}} a wide variety of items.

==Obtaining Gems==
The easiest way to obtain rough gems is through {{L|mining}}. Highly skilled {{L|miner}}s are more likely to leave a rough gem behind when they mine through a tile, and it may be advisable to designate certain gem {{L|cluster}}s as {{L|burrows}} restricted to your most skilled miners in hopes of maximizing your yield.

The {{L|glass industry}} is also a ready source of {{L|glass|raw glass}}, which is treated in all ways as a rough gem. While glass has a relatively low value compared to other gems, with a {{L|magma glass furnace}} and {{L|sand}} it is possible to produce raw glass in bulk, instead of mining for it. Raw glass is also a valuable way to give dwarfs {{L|experience}} in Gem Cutting and Gem Setting, or at least preventing those skills from becoming [[Rusty]].

Finally, all manner of gems are generally available through trade with dwarf and human {{L|caravan}}s, including rough gems, cut gems, large gems, gem crafts, and various glass products.

==Gem Cutting==
{{L|Gem cutting}} is a {{L|job}} at the jeweler's workshop; you can choose which type of gem to cut based on what ''rough gems'' you have available. Cutting consumes a rough gem and may produce a ''cut gem'', ''large gem'', or ''gem craft''. By far the most common result is a cut gem, which may be encrusted (see '''Gem Setting''', below). Large gems and gem crafts are {{L|finished goods}} and occur much more seldom; gem crafts are rarer than large gems. The gem cutter's skill level does not appear to affect the chances of producing a large gem or gem crafts, since gems have no quality levels, but it is possible that levels past {{L|Legendary}} might affect the process{{verify}}. Experimental results suggest that the odds of getting a large gem are 1 in 7, and the odds of gem crafts are 1 in 15{{verify}}.

Cut gems have a base value of 5, which is multiplied by the value of the gem (2-60). A cut gem is thus worth 10-300☼.

===Large Gems===
'''Large gems''' are considered {{L|finished goods}} and cannot be used for any other purpose besides trading. Large gems have a base value of 10, which is multiplied by the value of the gem (2-60). A large gem is thus worth 20-600☼.

===Gem Crafts===
'''Gem crafts''' are {{L|crafts}} made out of a type of gem, and include figurines, rings, earrings, amulets, bracelets, scepters, and crowns. Like other crafts, but unlike all other gem items, gem crafts have {{L|item value|quality levels}}, dependent on the skill level in Gem Cutting{{verify}}. {{L|Glass}} cannot be made directly into crafts at a {{L|glass furnace}}, only through a jeweler's workshop. Crafts have a base value of 10, which is multiplied by the value of the gem (2-60) and the quality level (1-12). A gem craft is thus worth 20-7,200☼.

==Gem Setting==
{{L|Gem setting}} is a {{L|job}} at the jeweler's workshop, and takes a ''cut gem'' to {{L|decoration|encrust}} {{L|furniture}}, {{L|ammo}}, and {{L|finished goods}}. You can specify the type of object the dwarf will encrust, but not the specific object. To encrust a specific piece of equipment with a specific gem requires careful use of {{L|stockpiles}}, and probably locking the {{L|jeweler}} in a {{L|burrow}} to avoid them going to different stockpiles.

Gem decorations have quality levels determined by the Gem Setter's skill level. Decorations have a base value of 10, which is multiplied by the value of the gem (2-60) and the quality level (1-12). A gem decoration is thus worth 20-7,200☼. A given item may possess multiple decorations, and encrusting items with gems can increase the wealth of a fortress substantially.

==Glass==
The {{L|glass industry}} produces ''raw glass'', which is treated as a rough gem for all purposes.

==Gem Windows==
{{L|Window}}s can be made out of any sort of glass at a {{L|glass furnace}} (in which case they are a type of {{L|furniture}}), or may be crafted out of any three ''cut gems'' (including cut glass gems), popularly known as a "gem window." If constructed of gems of a different color, a gem window will flash between the colors of the individual gems that make it up. Disassembling a "gem window" yields the gems that made it up.

Gem windows have no quality levels, so the value of a gem window is equal to the sum of the gems that made it up (2-60 per gem), for a total value of 6-180☼. By comparison, a glass window has a value modifer of 25 and a material multiplier (2-10), for a total value of 50-250☼. In general, glass windows are a better value.

==Industry Management==
The trick to making the most of your gems is care and attention to detail. Keep an eye out for stone types that contains valuable gems (like {{L|kimberlite}}, the source of all diamonds). Designate rare or valuable clusters of gems as {{L|burrows}} for your high-skill miners to maximize your yield.

Create separate custom stockpiles for your high-value and low-value gems adjacent to one or two jeweler's workshops. Designate the jeweler's workshop/high-value stockpile as a burrow specific your highest-level jeweler(s), and the jeweler's workshop/low-value stockpile as a burrow specific to your jewelers-in-training. For extra safety, use ({{key|q}}-{{key|P}}) to set the high-value jeweler's workshop profile so only your highest-skilled jewelers can use it.

Raw glass and low-value ornamental gems are ideal for training Gem Cutting and Encrusting skills, particularly if your {{L|glass industry}} is in full swing.

When encrusting items, dwarfs will generally go for the nearest piece of furniture/ammo/finished good that is not nailed down. To ensure that the gem setter encrusts the right item with the right gem(s), designate a small stockpile for that item as close to the jeweler's workshop as possible, as part of the burrow. And, if necessary, lock the doors until the jeweler encrusts the item.

Cheepicus: very rough draft

Fluids (water and magma) in Dwarf Fortress normally flow in a predictable way, "spilling" and spreading out, and flowing down. However, there is another way these fluids can move--pressure--which can be mystifying, unexpected, and Fun.

It is tempting to think of pressure in terms of bodies of fluid being 'pressurized' or 'pushed around' by pressure, but it is more useful to think of pressure as something that happens to a single individual "block" of fluid, moving it to a possibly distant location, like teleportation.

== Creating Pressure ==

A single "block" of fluid will try to move by pressure when it is created or moved one of the following ways, *and the target space is already full (7/7) of the fluid*:

1) Water falling down a level.
2) A pump pumping water OR magma up to a level.
3) Water being created, moving onto the map, as in the source of a river or stream on the map's edge.

== Moving via Pressure ==

When, as above, the moving block of fluid wants to move or be created by the target space is full, pressure kicks in and attempts to teleport the fluid somewhere else connected to the body of fluid.

So the game looks for a path to move the block. This path:
1) Will only travel through spaces full (7/7) of the fluid,
2) Can span Z-levels, but
3) Only travels orthogonally (north, south, east, west, favoring those before going down, and possible going up), and
4) Will *not* go up above the Z-level of the space *into which it was originally trying to move*.

The search for this path can fail, in which case the movement doesn't happen; the water does not fall, the pump does not pump, and new water is not created.

== Behavior ==

Given the above, some strange behaviors emerge:

=== Water will flow around a U-bend, but magma will not ===
This is because falling magma does not create pressure.

=== Pumps can make magma move via pressure ===
This is just the way it is.

=== Diagonal motions of water "remove pressure" ===
This is because the path to find a place to move fluid by pressure will not go diagonally.

=== Water falling from level Z can move via pressure only up to level Z+1 ===
That's because it's trying to move into the space on level Z+1, so that is the starting level of the pressure move.

=== A pump on level Z will fill up to level Z ===
That's because the fluid is trying to move to the output of the pump, which is on level Z.

=== Water flowing through a U-bend equalizes with the far side lower, or exactly even ===
That's because the last bit of water is trying to fall down to level Z, and pressure cannot move it back up to the level it's falling from.

=== A river tapped for water will fill a reservoir up to one Z-level lower than the river source... ===
This is because when a river is flowing normally, water that is created on the edge will move via pressure far downstream to fill some of the open space where the water is draining. Pressure will find these spots before it paths down through any U-bends.

=== ... but if the river is dammed, it will fill the reservoir up to the Z-level of the river ===
When the river is dammed, the usual open space downstream is gone, so pressure will now start to look downwards for paths that can possibly lead to your reservoir system, and back up to the Z-level of the river. Any pressure you see in your reservoir system *before* that is due to falling water pressure, not pressure from the source of the river.

One of the problems is that DF uses its own font. It's difficult to mimic the DF interface exactly with other fonts. I'm getting frustrated enough that I've actually considered cutting up curses_800x600.png into 256 different little images with transparent backgrounds and using them to build these diagrams. Won't work, of course, but short of making a custom font directly from the default DF font image, and somehow making the browser download it automatically, I don't see what I can do. [[User:Hussell|Hussell]] 02:45, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

:I think the image strategy would work, except we wouldn't have control over the foreground color (resp. background color if we did it backwards). It would be strange if it were impossible to get another font to line up end to end. After all, it happens naturally when putting text into the edit box here. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 03:00, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

The difficulty isn't end-to-end. That works fine. The problem is getting the bottom of one line to touch the top of the next. Several of the monospace fonts seem to have different heights for different characters (e.g., ┼ vs █▓▒░), which leads to problems either with overlapping or gaps, depending on how the line-height is set. [[User:Hussell|Hussell]] 03:06, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

:The difficulty is top end to bottom end :). It would be nice if there was a well behaved font that most people have. I'm going to see if I can find a mediawiki extension for generating images. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 03:25, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Well, with the 16 DF colors, at most 256 * 16 = 4096 images would be needed, with fixed foreground colors and transparent backgrounds or vice versa. Assuming they'd be 16x16, each would be ~32 bytes, for a total of ~131 kilobytes, which is less than some individual screenshots on this wiki. In practice, many of those would never be used in any diagram, and the vast majority wouldn't be used in any particular diagram. The only difficulty would be in generating those 4096 images in the first place, and giving them a simple system of names so that a template can convert characters into images. There's also the issue of which tile set to use. 16x16 with minimal alterations to the default characters would be good, but the default set used by the game is hard on the eyes, IMO. Maybe the [[Tileset_repository#Cooz|Cooz]] set, unshaded version? [[User:Hussell|Hussell]] 17:13, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

:Oh, that's different from what I was thinking (finding an extension that creates images on the fly.. I did find an inline SVG extension), but your idea probably has more merit since generating and uploading the images is easier than making the SVG versions.
:For naming we could use the DF color (eg: 7:1) paired with the actual character being displayed. If we do generate the ~4k images, are you able to upload them to the wiki? [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 20:57, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

:Another option. If we can find out what the necessary parts are for writing a mediawiki extension, perhaps we can convince Breiss to install the result. The PHP involved in taking a tile from a tileset map, recoloring it, and putting it into the page may turn out surprisingly accessible. Or better yet, we could try to find someone who knows PHP and has experience with writing wiki extensions. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 21:03, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

::An HTML trick is to have a single image for a bunch of tiles, then in the display code set a background origin to pick the tile you want to display out of the image. Not sure if something like that is possible with what tools we've got here. [[User:Cheepicus|Cheepicus]] 23:57, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
