Gridded Tileset

[rainbowlolipop]

I was playing earlier today and kept getting lost counting squares while trying to build, was puzzled there was no grid overlay option, so I just added one super quick.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1) Open the "main.dat" file in your PA folder with WinZip (or similar)
2) Make a copy of your "tileset.png" (simply drag it onto your desktop - this is your backup copy of the tileset)
3) Download the image below, and convert the ".jpg" image to ".png" (I didn't catch that imgur converted it in my hurry)
4) Drag the "tileset.png" you downloaded into the archive window
5) Save it
6) Enjoy building, just switch out copies of each as you need.

I'm sure someone else could do better, there is a bit of grid line madness at times...

oh, that's something that'll come in really handy for me

Thanks!

Nice work. I was going to suggest the addition of grid lines.

Thanks y'all.

It was also fun to look at the items that aren't in the game yet in the other texture files.

Looks like a lovely tileset, but when I update my main.dat I get an assertion error when it loads and none of my tiles show up... I think it's because the linked image is a .jpg when it wants a .png.

What am I missing here?

When you save the linked image change the .jpg to a .png

That's what I did.

not just the filename

Gotcha, didn't expect to have to convert it. I'll give it a shot!

[rainbowlolipop]

Whoops! Didn't see that imgur converted it to .jpg - yeah it must be .png formatted. Good catch.
