==What am I up to now?== | ==What am I up to now?== | ||
− | * | + | *Currently, I'm seeing more of the DF world through an adventurer's eyes. I find that this is the fastest way for me to meet new creatures (usually, I only make creature tiles as I meet them, so that I can tweak them based on in-game view). Since I've been crawling through a lot of cave missions, I'm meeting lots of cave creatures. So much so that I am almost in a position to finish off the tilepage for subterranium creatures. Once I nail down a couple more, I'll finish of the rest of the yet-to-meet creatures in the tilepage and upload the first creature tilepage (for subterranium creatures). |
+ | *I've been rethinking over the decision to try to make things DQ v0.94 compatible. I think I will still try to keep things DQC(Dystopian Qantas compatible), but I will also incorporate some changes that I feel are needed. Probably, for most tilepages, I will put up a DQC version which DQ users can directly use by replacing the corresponding image file, and my own variant, which will carry the updated organization and text data. | ||
+ | *After I did the skeletons for some animals and proceeded to work with zombies... I found that I'm bad with zombies. So in the thought of functionality, so that the zombie is not too unrecognizable from the non-zombie variant, I've decided to borrow DR's ideas, of overlaying a "skin" of the original creature over the skeleton of the creature (which is assumed to be aligned), "tear off" some skin and add some blood and goo. I think I did not do a good job, but it'll have to do for now, given the amount of work yet to be done. One good side effect of doing this tiles is that I get to see lots of pictures of real animal skeletons. I only retain the knowledge long enough to do the tiles, but still, it's quite interesting. | ||
==Acknowledgements== | ==Acknowledgements== | ||
*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'm assuming that tile at 9:4 which was previously unreferenced refers to the CAPTAIN_OF_THE_GUARD. This is also recorded in the text data section, which is another area the text data differs from DQ's original. | *I'm assuming that tile at 9:4 which was previously unreferenced refers to the CAPTAIN_OF_THE_GUARD.

* 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.
