[v1.0.1] Old RPG Tileset & Darkwood UI

[silverkaz]

I've been trying to grab this pack from bitupload.com but I'd rather kill kittens than deal with them. Plus, they are broken right now. Can this be uploaded to a better file share or posted to a Google Group or the add-on section on the te4.org site?

Thanks a bunch! Been using this on my other system and wanted to play with it on my laptop. Love the pixel-y goodness.

Could you post on another mirror? Bitupload appears to be down at the moment.

Ditto here... and bitupload is quite annoying.

New release just about ready!

Where should I upload it? The addon section is a no-go, this file is too big. Zippyshare or filehosting.org seem okay, but I honestly have no idea which sites are good/bad. I'd prefer something global, as in any country can download from it. I'm open for suggestions here!

New stuff for next release:

-300+ new talent icons. brings the count to 659/785
-5 or so new effect icons
-redid many armors, still wip. leathers improved, helmets tweaked, etc
-enhanced yeek player doll. centered the sprite in the tile. centered the available yeek armors, made them fit better

-a few new unique weapons
-tombstone UI for the grave stones, still wip
-finished darkwood UI. scrollbars, check boxes, etc
-shaded stat icons
-changed some object tiles. now based on the actual player doll equipment (leathers and robes for now)
-ghoul no longer wears a hood when wearing cloak of deception. also improved the fit of some ghoul armors/helmets
-added whips to the player dolls (still need an object icon)
-improved minstars somewhat, for some races. still wip. things will be unaligned, sorry
-added tutorial male/female player tiles
-new ice block tile

Most of the files I see (game mods, AGS games, etc.) are hosted on MediaFire these days. Their free option gives 50GB of space with a 200MB per file maximum. They're pretty fast, without constant pushes for downloaders to buy accounts.

Hi there! Been trying to get this pack since I laid my eyes on it (its absolutely stunning, great work ), but sadly, bitupload keeps giving me this message:

This server is in maintenance mode. Refresh this page in some minutes.

Hmm.. you might change "minutes" into "days"

[Vrashnahk]

Any update on an alternative download link? Been trying to get the pack for two days now, to no avail.

I also have been trying to download this addon but the Bitupload link just refuses to work. all other bitupload links i tried worked perfectly but this one file does not and gives the error "This server is in maintenance mode. Refresh this page in some minutes.". Can you please upload it elsewhere as i would like to download this addon and i found no solution as to how to get it.

[Karroc]

Any update on how to get this add-on? (the link is now not working at all)

[daftigod]

Sorry for the delay, been polishing up some (alot) of stuff in the pack.

Here's a new version:

* link removed, see OP

Feel free to post mirrors here if you want.

Just plop it in the addons folder like usual, and make sure it's enabled in the addon menu. Pick OldRPG for the tileset from the graphic options menu after you load a character.

New stuff:
-650+ talent icons, many old ones redone for a newer format
-Darkwood UI complete, some subtle changes
-Tons of new armors, helmets, gloves, etc. Many many things tweaked. Voratun stuff is almost finished.
-Some new npc's: Venom dragons, Horrors, etc.
-Terrain: Lots redone and improved. Some new stuff
-Objects: Started to redo alot of armor pickups based on the Player Doll equipment. More cohesive all around now

[Turunen45]

Sigh... Please. Could you upload it somewhere else other than bitupload?
It is again stuck on the "Server maintenance mode" and the file is undownloadable again.

[daftigod]

Okay the only conclusion I can come to is that someone who reads these boards is the person who keeps flagging my uploads. This is now the fourth time that the file was deleted in less than 24 hours.

This server is in maintenance mode means that the file was deleted. The only way that happens is when someone flags a file for inappropriate content. I will not say my feelings on this out of respect for the people on this board. I'm also not going to pretend that I created the monster sprites, and never have from day one. I realize that it is illegal to resell someone elses work as your own. Where do you see a price tag on oldrpg?

I will be uploading again later today on another site, and you will not be able to flag it there. This pack has over 5,000 individual png files, and there are only about 400 of those that come from commercial games. The rest is my work, and this white knight is really starting to get uder my skin because of that fact. Square doesn't care about a fan made addon for a free game and neither should you. I've never asked for a penny for my work here, and have put hundreds of hours into oldrpg development. So mind your own business please.

Okay there's some feelings in there, sorry board.

I finally got the file downloaded through a miracle of some sort. i have uploaded it just in case into three uploading sites
https://rapidshare.com/files/3522950774 ... g-b42.teaa
http://BillionUploads.com/u16flp3hn8m1/ ... .teaa.html
http://www.putlocker.com/file/30F1635CFD91BFF6
One of these should work.
And now that i was able to play the mod... Thank you Daftigod, your mod makes this game so much playable for me.

Love this tileset. Really feel it should just be included in the game.

[Prime]

I love the look of this tileset as well! But I have a small issue.

The Darkwood UI makes the health bar almost impossible to see, because it's so dark. I don't know if it's specific to me, but I had to disable it manually by removing the UI from the addon. I think it'd be nice to offer the package without the UI again, for people who have problems.

And if the look is intentional and not just a bug on my end, could you make them more visible in some way? The red of the healthbar is so dark that it's almost black.

[daftigod]

Do you have shaders disabled? The only time I've seen the dark bars is when shaders were disabled. They are supposed to be bright, there's a pic earlier in this thread that shows what the bars should look like. Glad you're enjoying the set, and thanks for the kind words guys!

Also, DG added some hooks for new UI's for the next beta and I will see if i can separate darkwood again.
