In addition to the raw images and text data, a snapshot of the actual gfx/char tilesets that I am using is now available at '''[[User:Sphr/gfx_set#Director.27s_Cut|here for download]]'''. All the files are the actual files I'm using for the game at the time of taking the snapshot, so it should be ready for direct use. | In addition to the raw images and text data, a snapshot of the actual gfx/char tilesets that I am using is now available at '''[[User:Sphr/gfx_set#Director.27s_Cut|here for download]]'''.

*I've been sparse with the manual 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. | *I've been sparse with the manual installation instructions, as I assume that the reader knows the basics of fiddling with custom gfx tiles.

*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.

This is not a "release". It's a snapshot of the actual files (gfx and char tilesets) I'm using (unmodified), including all of my WIP stuff which may not be released otherwise yet. It consists of more than just my own work so credits goes to their original creators (mainly DR) as well. Content is not expected to be persistent as I do edit/tweak/swap tiles quite frequently. Use of this is up to individual and I will not bear responsibility for anything broken. I am currently still using 39f, but the files I use should be compatible (unless new professions/creature added in new versions, in which case those professions will use probably some default tiles). It should also be compatible with older versions (at least up to 33a) except that some newly added professions/creatures may not be recognized and gets added to error log, but the game should run without problems. | This is not a "release".
