Graphics font packs usually leave the letters a-zA-Z0-9 alone while modifying characters such as éáö&. Using the above settings with regular DF will get you a game that is somewhat readable, but has a few quirks: This allows for the override of your tileset font and instead the game will use data/art/font.ttf for all text outside the game area, reducing the text corruption issues somewhat. This sets the replacement images for the 256 characters when the game is in fullscreen. Be sure to set the TRUETYPE option to YES (see below). If you prefer the graphics for these tiles over somewhat less legible text, you can set this to your graphics file. This prevents your tileset graphics from overwriting characters such as 0 or. You can and should set this to a text font file (i.e. This sets the replacement images for the 256 font characters. Here's what each of the four font value options mean: 'Somewhat' fixing the issue: The reason it can somewhat separate things is because it tends to use the ASCII set for text and the Extended set for "graphics". It's written for the use of the standard windows-1252 encoding (also known as latin-1 or IBM CP 437.). However, DF is smart enough to be able to use a tile set for only its graphics, not its text, 'mostly'. That is because it reuses the same symbols for both text, displaying tiles, and data.
#DWARF FORTRESS TILESET BEST INSTALL#
How do I manually install a tileset in just vanilla, out-of-the-box Dwarf Fortress?ĭwarf fortress has four different values for font and tileset files. Or I could be totally wrong about all of that. But I can find no reference that documents what modifications need to be made, what the various modifications do (so that I can decide if I need to make that particular change), etc. And to add further complication, it seems like perhaps not all of them need to be modified, depending on various factors (like current resolution). The best I can tell, it seems like there are actually multiple (in fact, many) different files/settings that need to be modified to use a given tileset. And every other reference, tutorial, book, or video that I’ve found all points to using LNP which I’m not asking about. The DF documentation is pretty sparse and I haven’t been able to successfully install any tileset by following it. I cannot find a single reference anywhere that walks through the process of manually installing a new tileset. I’m gonna attempt to save us all some frustration and emphasize the fact that I’m not asking about LNP or ANY other similar pre-packaged tool.
