Angband 64 x 64 pixel tileset

[Shockbolt]

As long as the game itself remains totally free to download and play/no micro-payments to gain special advantages etc, and proper credit is given, I see no problem with using my tiles with your game.

The game will be FREE with ads in it so i guess it's no problem for you...

i can help the community here with coding related stuff too if needed, i can code c,c++,c# (.net/xna),Java and made simple 2d/3d games in past.

bye!

Thanks, that's great!

So i'll stay tuned to see when the tileset will be made available for download (or is it already, part of it maybe?)!

I weren't able to send you an e-mail reply due to your settings, so I'll contact you here when the Angband tileset is near complete.

A handful of misc items painted this weekend:

I can't imagine what the internal organs are for, but looking good.

Without them, you wouldn't live Buzzkill
They're ritual components for ToME.

I just wanted to clear up some possible confusion around the tiles I'm painting:

The tiles seen in this thread you're in now, are tiles painted for both ToME and Angband, in a heavenly mix. But, myself and the creator of ToME have agreed that tiles created specifically for ToME (specific Creatures/NPC/Items painted for ToME purposes) will only be used within ToME. That means I can only allow Angband and Angband variants to use the final 64x64 Angband tileset I'll be posting here in the end when it's complete, the one not containing any specific ToME tiles.

Those of you who have already used my tiles that come with any of the beta versions of ToME, I kindly ask that you discontinue doing so and instead wait for my complete Angband Tileset.

I don't want to sound or be an ass when it comes to this matter, but I'm spending an insane number of hours creating these tiles for free, and I would therefor like to control how they're being used as long as they're being used for free. That said, anyone asking for permission to use the tiles will probably get to do so, as long as the proper credit is given and the game/project they're being used with is and remain totally free of charge and income to it's owner(s).

They're to represent the fearsome kidney druj.

No problem. Thanks again for your amazing work - I hope we'll have a version of angband that does it justice, in less than the twelve months takkaria promised!

Hey Shockbolt,

I totally respect your right to control how your graphics are used.

That said, since Angband is GPL'd, we'd like the Angband icons to be released to us under the GPL, which means that other authors could also use them under the GPL. Is this OK?

If you'd rather not do this then we'll need to distribute the tiles separately to avoid licensing problems with e.g. Debian. Not a huge deal, but worth knowing about. What do you think?

Thanks, and keep up the great work!
