[graphics] Tangar's tileset - 1 bit graphics font for TomeNET

[tangar]

"Tangar's tileset" - 1-bit graphics for TomeNET. Its raster font ("pseudographics font") with various sizes.

Why you should use this tileset? Cause it give you possibility to 'read' game situations faster and without mistakes! Example, different 'D's in TomeNET by default have differences only by color and flickering.. Try to understand who is who here:


In my tileset it became piece of cake!

I hope this tileset would safe you from a lot of YASD's in TomeNET

Past streams... I continue making TomeNET graphics:

TomeNET NEW GRAPHICS: terrain and objects

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBl2OJS5pIY

TomeNET GRAPHICS making: ice walls, snow and sand walls

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_GT1RhsjqM

TomeNET GRAPHICS: crystals, unbelivers and QUESTION...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuHXQeTQNrM

Also I've made 3 streams in russian, you are welcome to find it at my 'streamguild' youtube channel %)


Also some news:

1) alsmost finished all terrain objects (wanna redraw water and polish some other stuff).
2) would start monsters very soon %)
3) there are loads of .ttf files with 1 bit fantazy art in internet.. You could just open such file with Fony, resize and copy whatever you like to your .FON file Now I know how Lightman 'draw' his monsters I would make a guide about it in my today's stream! Time to reveal secret technology

TomeNET GRAPHICS: converting .ttf to .fon and making monsters ♣ MMO-roguelike game

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsxqYVbq8tU

Some notes:

- To convert .ttf to .fon you could just import any .ttf to Fony via: "file" -> "import" -> "installed truetype font".

- Just found out (already after stream!) that there is bitmap grabber at Fony which could take _any_ tile from tilesets To do so:
1) open .FON file
2) "file" -> "import" -> "from bitmap"
3) choose a number of symbols to import %) Voila!

So its possible to take anything from any tileset with 1 mouse click!

Found free to use 1 bit tilesets:

In my defense, I want to help you with your font project and you have already declined my help once. I will continue to mail you any help I can provide anyway (without skipping over any details next time).

ps. The videos are awesome

[tangar]

Ok Actually help are very appreciated

Right now we need to group all unique monsters by symbols (A-group, a-group, B-group, b-group) for font-custom file.

Structure of this file:
number (__without -12 for now!__) - name - monster lvl - comment (if there is something specific about monster

Example:
N:824:F'lar, rider of the Bronze Mnementh 79 NO IN THE GAME?

N:765:Azriel, Angel of Death 62

N:384:Meneldor the Swift 24
N:410:Gwaihir the Windlord 24
N:468:Thorondor, Lord of Eagles 30

If you could help with further monster list - it would be awesome.

Also its useful to use Mik's monster search cause you could search there with two parameters - Character: and flag: unique. EX:
http://muuttuja.org/tomenet/monsters/in ... mit=Search --- it would show all "D" uniqs

p.s.
No need to rush there, most important - avoid any mistakes and typos

[tokariew]

What about joke version of monsters? The pumpkin is there, all event monster too. I pretty sure that Zeus could spawn sometimes…
You can just modify the code from Mikaelh site, to write monster with ID and lvl, it shouldn't be so hard

[tangar]

Sure, lets add joke uniq monsters to the list; just add comment about it like "JOKE". It wouldn't do harm even if they wouldn't be available in-game. Who know what would be in future.. The more - the better

Also you are welcome to help with scripting
