Taffer's tileset
／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
A sharp looking, vanilla styled tileset that strives to strike a good balance between nice, attractive graphics, while avoiding the odd graphical oddities that occur with many otherwise wonderful tilesets. Give one of my tilesets a good shot. This tileset originally diverged from Tocky's tileset, and I still use and recommend his colours, linked below. Featuring nicely rounded double lines for walls! Fortifications allow dwarves to peer through them! Cart tracks look like cart tracks! Or try the solid wall option for a cleaner look, and assume dwarves are using their x-ray vision on those solid looking fortifications. Everything will be 20% cooler!
I've positioned many tiles carefully, and put a lot of thought into each one, often obsessively so. I find the cumulative differences from the ASCII add quite a bit to the game. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and the update log attests to that, but the result is pleasing and well-polished. This will work fine with any mods, unless the mod relies on graphic sets.
A change of the colour scheme is highly recommended, and my favoured scheme is Tocky's colour scheme, featured above. More, decidedly less brown colour schemes can be found elsewhere on the wiki. An addition that I highly recommend is Soundsense, to provide your game with some more atmosphere. My recommended mod is the Modest Mod, which almost exclusively fixes bugs. Deon's Genesis mod now includes a version of my tileset, and is worth checking out, if vanilla DF just isn't enough.
Many good, stout dwarves died making these tilesets. Also a few elves, and possibly a spider monkey.
Alternate versions!

Just try the damn tileset and trust me. Tocky's colours are important too. You taffer.
