− | + | *I've been sparse with the installation instructions, as I assume that the reader knows the basics of fiddling with custom gfx tiles. The basic instructions are shown on the wiki page on [[tilesets]] as well as in several forum posts by helpful individuals (which should be stickied, or at least have the content copied over to the wiki). {TODO: put links to forum posts here?} If you really don't feel like putting in the effort, I think there are several nice compilations that are easier to install, which packs the actual BMP and TXT files nicely in an archive which you can just replace the entire raw/graphics in DF directory. | |

*As many tiles as I've done, there are still so many more tiles to do to make certain tile pages complete. I'm still using Dystopian Rhetoric tiles myself (those included in DQ) for all those I've not done, as DR is still the most complete set ever (kinda like the MS Arial Unicode among fonts). Only when I started drawing gfx tiles can I truly appreciate just how big the task must have been for DR to put up a complete gfx set. Despite the fact that I'm sort of a "competitor" now in some people's perceptions, my aim is first and foremost trying to improve my own game experience (and hopefully others' too, along the way), and being a long time DR gfx tiles user myself, I have nothing less than utmost appreciation for what he'd done. *salutes* | *As many tiles as I've done, there are still so many more tiles to do to make certain tile pages complete.

*Veryinky well deserves a mention too, for organizing all those gfx tiles in a sensible and modular manner so that it becomes much easier for people (like me) to update/maintain them. The organization is based on the raw files organization of the original game itself, so correspondence for modders is easier (e.g. if people add new creature raw, they can add new creature gfx without disturbing the rest using the same pattern). If it isn't for his organization, I think I would never have gotten the motivation to produce more tiles and make them public (under the pressure that one has to make a whole complete set of tiles for all creatures to "publish" them). *salutes* | *Veryinky well deserves a mention too, for organizing all those gfx tiles in a sensible and modular manner so that it becomes much easier for people (like me) to update/maintain them.

+ | v0.9.* is probably as high as the version can be for some time (less minor tweaks) as I have no immediate plans to do the only thing that is left : zombie and skeleton versions of the dwarves, since they aren't really used in the dwarf mode atm. When I muster the motivation to complete it, that will be the complete version v1.0. | ||

*in the last column (column 11), Veryinky's Dystopian Qantas (v0.94) lists them from top down as COUNT, COUNT_CONSORT, BARON, BARON_CONSORT, DUKE, DUKE_CONSORT, KING, KING_CONSORT, which is strange because I thought it would be more natural if it followed an order of increasing rank (but Count is actually higher in rank to Baron). So in my work, I actually swapped position of BARON with COUNT and BARON_CONSORT with COUNT_CONSORT. The text data at the image's page differs from DQ's in this respect as well. But even without changes to text data, it should be fine as there is only one type of baron/count/duke at any point, if most people are like me who can't be bothered to distinguishing such nobles beyond that they are bags of troubles ;) | *in the last column (column 11), Veryinky's Dystopian Qantas (v0.94) lists them from top down as COUNT, COUNT_CONSORT, BARON, BARON_CONSORT, DUKE, DUKE_CONSORT, KING, KING_CONSORT, which is strange because I thought it would be more natural if it followed an order of increasing rank (but Count is actually higher in rank to Baron).

* I've finished the skeletons and elite skeletons, but I have not decided whether to put it up. The reason is that the original organization used by DQ only sets one row for skeletons. However, to cater for both normal and elite, I need two rows and have modified my local copy to reflect that. The row organization is the same as the other military (one row for normal weapons, one row for elite). Releasing this version will mean a break from the DQ compatibility goal which may make things difficult for current DQ users. I don't know what I'll do yet, prob wait and see. If anybody got good ideas, do tell me about them. | * I've finished the skeletons and elite skeletons, but I have not decided whether to put it up.
