|author=[[User:Anikki|Anikki]]

|dated=2008-7-27

|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).

|size=10×10

|resolution=800×250 native.

|comments=Based primarily on Tocky and Plac1d's sets (which are brilliant). The characters remain as descriptive as possible with some tweaks to the font for better readability and some changes to symbols for more consistency. This set is for those who like the basic ASCII look where every pixel has meaning or (multiple meanings). [http://www.anikki.com/share/df/Anikki_square_10x10.bmp Download the BMP]

|resolution=1600×500 native.

|comments=Based primarily on Tocky and Plac1d. This is a scaled up version of the 10x10 tileset for fullscreen use. [http://www.anikki.com/share/df/Anikki_square_20x20.bmp Download the BMP]

|size=20×20

|resolution=1600×500 (80x25 grid size); 1600×1000 (80x50 grid size)

|comments=This is the 20x20 version of my 24x24 tileset. A DF version supporting transparent PNGs must be used. In order to use unscaled tiles, horizontal resolution must be at least 1600.

|resolution=1600×500 (80x25 grid size); 1600×1000 (80x50 grid size)

|comments=This is the 20x20 version of my 24x24 tileset. Graphical tiles have been replaced by ASCII ones. A DF version supporting transparent PNGs must be used. In order to use unscaled tiles, horizontal resolution must be at least 1600.

|size=24×24

|resolution=1920×600 (80x25 grid size); 1920×1200 (80x50 grid size)

|comments=Inspired by the Terminus24 tileset, I created this square 24x24 tileset. Almost all symbols have been redrawn antialiased; so a DF version supporting transparent PNGs must be used. In order to use unscaled tiles, horizontal resolution must be at least 1920.

|author=[[User:Cheepicus|Cheepicus]]

|dated=2010-8-4

|size=12×12

|resolution=960×300

|comments=I wanted a 12x12 ASCII graphics set, sharp, with pleasant text, so I wound up making one myself from scratch. It's a little influenced by Guybrush, which I love, but after awhile the blurriness got to me.

 

(This tileset is not entirely ASCII; I changed the equals sign to a pattern, so that stockpiles would look the way I like.)

|size=9×9

|resolution=720×225

|comments=It's improved Savok's tileset, which is changed to make walls look smooth. Plus another little differences.

|comments=Mod of Dortens super sexy 9*9 tileset, this time to provide solid backgrounds to tiles, avoids designation problems by using PNG transparency.

|author=[[User:Gekz|Gekz]]

|dated=2010-1-08

|size=11×11

|resolution=880×275

|comments=This works great on my EeePCs shoddy resolution of 1024x600, and this is why I made it. This is basically the [http://www.is-vn.bg/hamster/ Terminus font] converted for use on DF. I chose this font due to its readability at a low resolutions, and soon I'll convert some of the non-letter characters into actually objects like beds and dwarves, so keep a look out for an updated version that I'll add below.

 

[http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=47570.0 This forum thread] has the slightly 'graphical' test version. Quite amusing. Check there for updates.

|author=[[User:Hanuman|Hanuman]]

|dated=2008-7-23

|size=12×12

|resolution=900×300

|comments=This is basically the curses_800x600.bmp file converted to 12x12. It may be slightly different but it is close enough for me. [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=318 Get the .BMP here.]

|author=Herrbdog

|dated=2007-10-30

|size=12×12

|resolution=960×300

|comments=A larger version of this tileset is available [[#Herrbdog 2|below]].

|image=[[Image:Jdpage_8x8.png]]

|comments=Modified version of the [[#Anikki|Anikki]] 8x8 tileset. Just prettifies it a bit; some characters are tweaked to make them work slightly better for one of their jobs without disturbing the rest. Others are redesigned entirely. Most importantly, dwarves were given beards.

 

 

|comments=Adjusted by Exponent, and with new dwarf characters added. A version of the Unknown 12×12 tileset with smoothed walls. Example: [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-5243-wiltedblight Wiltedblight].

|dated=2007-10-30

|size=9×9

|resolution=720×225

|comments=Another square tileset that's usable on low resolutions, modeled after a common font used on the Nintendo Entertainment System. I also made a [[:Image:Nostalgia_1440x450_3e4a08.png|18x18 version]] to fit my 1440x900 screen, back when the aspect ratio of DF was locked. If you like your set a bit more graphical, check out [[:Image:Teeto_K_18x18.PNG|Teeto_K's version]].

|comments=This revision is designed to work with DF version 0.27.169.33a with special tiles for [[stair]]s and [[ramp]]s, as well as the changes present in the earlier version such as bones, walls, trees and swords.<br> Available in [http://mkv25.net/showcase/df/mkv_curses%2012x12%20and%206x6%20v2.zip mkv curses 12&times;12 and 6x6 v2.zip].

|comments=An older revision of my square tileset, featuring more detailed symbols, with alterations to certain text characters to look more like ingame items. The walls are infilled now.<br>

|image=[[Image:Paul_10x10.png]]

|author=[[User:Paul|Paul]]

|dated=2008-9-5

|size=10&times;10

|resolution=800&times;250 for 80&times;25 grid size, others just multiply grid by 10.

|comments=Custom tileset I made for my own use when the adjustable grid sizes were released for DF. Some accented letters cut slightly to allow for larger letter display. 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.

=== DDR ===

|author=DDR & Others

|dated=2010-9-3

|size=12&times;12

|resolution=960&times;300 native

|comments=A remix of the Unknown 12x12 curses with Markvii's diagonal walls. Works quite nicely together.

=== Savok ===

[[Image:Screenshot_41ea57.png|thumb|right|Savok's tiny, non-updated tileset]]

|image=[[Image:Curses_720x225_8d6752.png]]

|comments=There is no doubt that this tileset is old. This must be distinctly understood if anything wonderful is to come of your use of it. You may like [[List_of_user_character_sets#Dorten|Dorten's revision]] more. The following is the original description:<br>I dislike curses_640x300.bmp due to its lack of any kind of graphics for things like a bed or a barrel and the fact that it distorts my beautiful circles, so I made a similarish tileset to fix those.

=== Sir Henry ===

|image=[[:Image:Sir_Henry%27s_32x32.png|Not shown due to size]]

|dated=2009-8-19

|size=32&times;32

|resolution=2560&times;800

|comments=Recently I learned of a monitor displaying 2560 pixels horizontally, and I decided it needed a tileset to put to use. Taking the tileset I use (Kelora 16x16 diagonal) and doubling it, I was able to get a decent tileset. Smoothing the edges, and redoing some glyphs to get a better look (or just messing up some to bad to fix), I was able to achieve this.  

===Talryth===

|image=[[Image:Talryth_square_15x15.png]]

|author=[[User:Talryth|Talryth]]

|dated=2010-06-18

|size=15&times;15

|resolution=1440&times;900 (96&times;60 grid size)<br/>1680&times;1050 (112&times;70 grid size)

|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.

===Teeto_K===

|image=[[Image:Teeto_K_18x18.PNG]]

|author=[[User:Teeto_K|Teeto_K]]

|dated=2008-10-24

|size=18&times;18

|resolution=1440&times;450

|comments=A tileset based on [[:Image:Nostalgia_1440x450_3e4a08.png|Maus's 18x18 version of his "Nostalgia" tileset]], however, it has been heavily revised. The entire font has been "smoothed over", and many of the symbols changed to more "graphical" representations of the items they represent. 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.

=== Terbert ===

|image=[[Image:Terbert_10x10.png]]

|image=[[Image:Tocky_square_10x10.png]]

|comments=I tried to make all the pictographic symbols as descriptive as possible: the only ones I've spotted that show up in odd places are the staircase symbols, '<' and '>', which are used as tags on barrel descriptions, and don't match -- but I'm willing to live with that in order to be able to tell up-stairs from down- ones. 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.
