Could you attach a patch so that we can try this out? Or push it to github?

I only have access to the net through a public terminal...

Changes to main-sdl.c:
Line 378 : change GfxModes from 5 to 6

Add line to the GfxDesc struct just below:
{"64x64", "64x64.png", 64, 64, "pref file name", 0, 0, TRUE},

"pref file name" maybe "shockbolt" which will use pref file shockbolt.prf

The two zeros point to a co-ordinate on the .png file which denotes the transparent colour.

Hope it helps...

Thanks! I'll try and add this myself, with a pinch of luck I might just make it.

Edit: There's no such file in any of the Angband file folders. I'm using Angband 3.2.0.

Did you download a binary package? You'll need to downlaod the source code, make that change, and compile it...

*headslap* The thought was in my mind late last night....will have a shot at it later today after work. Thanks for the tip!

Edit: I made the changes to the file mentioned above, saved and then tried to compile the src folder, but the attempt got me a list of errors before quitting. I'm giving up on adding the codes myself and instead focus on painting the tiles.

More mixed tiles, general items, food and a mix of weaponry this time:

We devs are trying to get a windows version with 64x64 tiles built... sorry it's taking awhile and keep up the amazing work!!!

I've got two jobs currently, as it's close to impossible to live in norway and make a living off of the artwork alone.
So in periods I'm a freelance digital artist both during the day and evenings(and long into the night), working mainly for the games industry but I've also had a few concept art jobs for the movie industry as well. In addition to this, I'm working on several personal projects including a fantasy graphic novel and a series of iphone games based on the same characters/universe. Hopefully a few of the iphone games will be launched sometime in 2011, the codes for them are being put together these days.

These really are amazingly good. If you complete the set of tiles, you will surely become a hero within the Angband world.
