40d:Graphics set repository

You may be looking for general information on tilesets or the List of user character sets.

Graphics sets are a type of tileset for use with Graphics Mode, which allows the game to display different tiles for creatures. Only creature tiles are supported so far. The tilesets page has detailed instructions on how to use these.

Dystopian Rhetoric

Download: DIY version EZ Download Pack- No Installation! (5.43MB download) Updated graphics_example.txt file. Author: DR Tile Size: 16×16 Resolution: 1280×400 Current Version: DF Compatibility: Unspecified Installation: 10/12/07: Okay, so I've definitely been slacking off here. But I'm vaguely annoyed at myself for constantly failing to update this so, what the hell, here's what I've done so far. It is by no means comprehensive. Most of the new dwarf jobs are in, with a few exceptions (blacksmith [uses metalsmith], clothier [uses weaver] several farmer, mechanic and mason jobs [use the base tile for that "class"], and the architect [the trade minister or something, I think]). The military also got an overhaul. Still a lot of work to do, and I'm not happy with a bunch of the stuff did make it in. Also, I'm not updating the easy pack until I get a proper handle on this and get most of it done.

Mike Mayday (Tocky, DR, Herrbdog etc)

Download: [1] Author: Mikemayday Tile Size: 16×16 Resolution: 1280×400 Current Version: DF Compatibility: Unspecified Installation: This is a pre-packed version, currently employing 38c. This is a little more than a graphics set because it is combined with a customized main tileset (with symbols edited for some objects for easier disambiguation), also employing a blend patch to allow the use of PNGs. Just follow the link, download and enjoy, no need to mess around with files. Credits go to DR, Tocky, Herrbdog, Dragon Warrior games and me (although I did much more organizing and editing than actually creating).

PTTG

Download: PTTG16x16graph.png Author: PTTG Tile Size: 16×16 Resolution: 1280×400 Current Version: DF Compatibility: Unspecified Installation: Make sure to back up your Graphics folder, then convert PTTG16x16graph.png to .bmp. Then move the file into the 'example' file. Copy the txt file included on the image page and save it as graphics_example.txt. I hope everybody gets how to install this. Anyway, a nice, clear image set for full-color heroes and all the civ-ing races, complete with kids and kings! Thanks to Zaratustra, I based my txt file on the one for that GS.

Sphr

Sphr's Dwarves (v0.9.1)

Download: Sphr_dwarves.png Author: Sphr Tile Size: 16×16 Resolution: 1280×400 Current Version: DF Compatibility: Unspecified Installation: Based off VeryInky's Dystopian Qantas organization. First, download Sphr_dwarves.png and convert to bitmap and rename it dwarves.bmp. If you have installed Dystopian Qantas, just replace dwarves.bmp in raw/graphics/main/ (back up original first!). If not, copy dwarves.bmp in raw/graphics/main/. The the text data (adapted from Dystopina Qantas) is recorded in the image's page itself. Either create a new text file in raw/graphics with the text content, or add it to an existing text file in raw/graphics. Some of the non-military dwarves are inspired by both Dystopian Rhetoric as well as Deep Qantas, but given a complete makeover. The undead/zombie tiles currently use the ones found in Dystopian Qantas (v0.94) and kept so for compatibility. Latest version specializes champions so that when guards/royal guards reach champion status, they are still distinguishable from the controllable ones. Details and screen shots at my gfx set page.

Unzip in /graphics. Each biome and primary race is in it's own .bmp. This is a combination of the Dystopian Rhetoric and the Deep Quantas sets. The sprites are 16×16, using DQ for dwarves and elves, while DR for the rest. The dwarves hold a different tool for each job skill. It also includes nearly every new creature for version 0.32/0.33 except some fish and sharks.
