Hey Darraketh, do you mind if I put your tileset on my page for download? There's a few people on UNsenet who seem interested. I'll be sure to attribute the credit properly.

Hong, by all means yes! Hee hee I was hoping someone would come along and offer to do so.:D

I also have a map contribution to the thread.

Alchemist, thanks for sharing your map, it looks beautiful. I love what you've done with the hills. Would you mind posting here the single hex bmp for the orange desert hills.

You have now joined the illustrious ranks of the hex makers!:D

Zoop. My incredible hill tile colour shifted to red should be found at the end of this post.

Glad you liked it. :)

Thanks! It's perfect for martian landscapes too.

Hey do you think you could color shift them to white as in snow covered? How about the grey mountain tile?

Alrighty, this is what an hour of dingling with colours got me. It dosen't match the ice tile perfectly, but I think all contrast would be lost if they did, making it a pointless exercise. Any insight?

The tiles themselves will be found in the next post.

Edit: Forgot to descibe the map!

This region of the north is mostly permanent iceshelf with a small hilly/mountainous region jutting up from the blowing wastes. The area is ruled by the White Dragon Kaltblutig who employs the local barbarian tribes as labour in his mining operations. The coastal villages eke out a meager existance on fishing, whaling and seal hunting, performing as middleman for Kaltblutig's diamond mining operations. Kaltblutig is surprisingly kind to his subjects, paying them a wage of coal from his mines to heat their family homes. The lack of outsiders travelling through and the small population demands a light touch if he is to continue amassing a horde.

I would recommend signing up for the Yahoo group started by Drowchik for posting tiles. It's a lot easier since you can upload a zip file of your new tiles.

Way ahead of you. Done and done. :)

I was mostly pointing it out to anybody that might be listening. Also, La Bete did an inverted coastline tileset that I haven't received yet...

panderse@telusplanet.net It would be appreciated. :)

;) Oh..., alright, already! :D I'll join. Better late than never I suppose.

Time to get with the times!

In other news... Here is my latest take on rivers. I increased the width of the river when two joined into one. A river starts out as one pixel wide then goes to two pixels when it joins another river. That river goes to three pixels when it subsequently is joined by another. I'm just trying to show, simply, how a river increases in size when it combines with another as it makes it's way to the sea.

BTW A one pixel river is actualy three pixels wide due to the effects of antialiasing.
