ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

I'm not going to repost my handiwork from earlier but i wanted to upload some of my object tiles too. Keep in mind that white isnt the most forgiving background for some of these


If anyone wants the full set, send me a PM.

Probably going to try to finish off the equippables tomorrow some time.

(yes the dragonbone arrows have feathers... theyre white)

I'm just gonna say it. I love these.

Quick howto and rules on tiles:

1. No tilesheet support. Each tile needs its own png file.
2. No mask color. Alpha all the transparent bits.
3. Power of two texture. 32x32 is prefered, 64x64 is possible, but discouraged.

If you want to test them its easy too.
Copy your tiles to game/modules/tome/data/gfx/*/ (replace * with npcs, objects, etc)
Go into your tome install directory, /game/modules/tome/data/general/*/*.lua files. Either add a image= line or edit the existing one to refer to your image. Most objects should already have image= tags.
Run ToME. If it complains or crashes, something went wrong, log should help.
The hard part may be finding examples of all your objects ingame

If you know how to diff files and you have made these modifications, you can send the patch directly to DG. Otherwise you can send the tiles directly to him and he will make the modifications. You may have to wait till he releases a new version or compile it from source to actually see your tiles ingame however.

Hey quick post from my holydays!

I like those!
You're definitively welcome (and yes should contaact angloki to not work on the same things).
If you can do as antagonist said it'll be perfect, send them to me and I'll include them.

As to what to work on, as I see you did some of the old forest, you can continue with monsters from then and objects too, fine

Send'em send'em!

Theyre already in individual .pngs, I just lumped 'em into 1 big file so I could post it easier. Theyre all 32x32 on transparencies, basically the same format as my npc tiles which have already been tested.

Very very neat thanks, please continue

PS: if somebody wants to do the assigning into the data files and send mea dif I'd be happy otherwise I'll do it when I come back from holydays

I think I need to differentiate more between the first 2 leather caps and boots but other than that I'm pretty well satisfied with these new ones... Feedback is appreciated.

I like those a lot and yes about the leather caps

I have integrated the first batch you've sent! Keep them coming

This should be all the base items that can be equipped plus a few others. the mummy wrapping tile is a temp until i can think of a better representation.

Woh thanks!
They say I am a machine when it comes to coding, you are one when it comesto drawing

What's your next target ?; )

BTW next beta will have cloth hats too, wizard hats, with pointy heads, if you could design them it'd be great.
3 variants as usual for head gear: linen, cashmere, elven-silk
Of items missing I only see money and lower gems.

Oh and your naming of images is just great I could integrate them super easily

If you dont know what to do next, either more monsters or an icon for each talent would be great.
If you do talents name the image as the talent name, lower case, replace any non letters with an _, this way I can load them automatically

Oh and if you do a mix of all please put all talents in a folder, all monsters in an others and so on so I can sort them.

Thanks!

Next I'll finish up the objects and then probably start working on talents. I'll be gone for most of the weekend though so it might be a little while before I make any real progress.

Do you want the talents in the same format as objects or do you want them smaller and maybe have a background e.g. diablo 2 skills?

32x32 is good for talents yes, one per png, with a background sounds just good

Thanks

Heres the rest of the items other the gems. Also a few talents. Been distracted and haven't spent much time on 'em lately

Oh yeah moooarrr tiles !

I'll start adding what is needed to have talents use tiles, once we have enough we can switch the main display to a talent bar
