Re: amplio2hexbig tileset

Post by cazfi »

1) There's some problems when there's unknown tile next to Hills/Mountains/Forest. Those terrains sometimes continue to the unknown tile, and darkness drawn on top of that only covers part of what's in the visible tile, leaving some parts visible behind those pixels of darkness. I don't know if you can do anything to that with existing freeciv tileset format (can you make darkness sprite so that it covers the actual unknown tile too?), but I leave it for you to check and test. Let me know if freeciv changes are needed.

2) Is it ok if this tileset is made available with freeciv-modpack -utility?

2) Certainly!

1) I've noticed the overlap too, but am uncertain about a fix. I'd have to doublecheck to make sure, but I don't think the unseen tiles actual value even matter though, it just 'assumes' there are more connecting terrain just out of sight. I'll check that out tonight.

Looked at it for a few minutes thinking 'but they all need to be the same to match up'...and then promptly forehead-palmed realizing that the overlap is all the same to match up. So after trying couple methods, cutting the huge excess off the bottom and pasting it into a layer behind the top worked best, with the top excess unchanged (it was't very large anyway, and it's isometric, so that's expected to a degree).
Then went and rebuilt the forest tiles, capping the excess to 10 pixels above(just enough to cover the trunks of a forest tile it's matched with), and it looks great. (in some places, it was as high as 30 before...).
Also threw in some misc tiles that I'd done before, but placed on the backburner as unimportant. The 'black' tile is just a pure black for a 'hard' out of bounds, the 'dirt' tile is a dark brown and can be used for a 'soft' out of bounds, the 'void' uses the starry void tiles from battle for wesnoth, and likewise the 'void2' tiles, but the void2 cause water to beachhead and stalactites hang off the bottom for a 'floating islands in the void' type scenario, if oceans just aren't enough of a barrier.(think Malas from Ultima Online)

Turned out that the problem I saw, was caused by another fix that has been committed since 2.4.1 release. See bug #21539

I made simple conversion of version 1.5 to current freeciv S2_5 format, for testing freeciv before the format gets frozen. That tileset is now available with modpack installer (S2_5 version, naturally).

It was routine conversion following http://freeciv.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_up ... 2.4_to_2.5 except that "unit.convert" activity needs gfx. I worker around that by just defining the tag to point to some other sprite.

Ported to current (or at least current yesterday) TRUNK.

In the other thread jtn said:
Well, I'd love to see a hex Amplio. Really, the thing that's put me off ever playing hex is the lack of tilesets, much as I'd like to.
I too consider now actually playing with hex topology a bit for the first time. Which brings the question if we should add (amplio2hexbig or some other) better tileset to freeciv project itself?

I'm about to combine Amplio2hexbig with Cimpletoon units (no artistic skills required, just editing the .tilespec) to see how such a tileset would work.

One thing you may want to improve is making it easier to distinguish between "Fogged Ocean" and "Seen Deep Ocean". Not that I just spent some time searching for a bug that caused those Ocean tiles to be fogged despite being in city vision range....

hmm, i can see where that might be a problem, with fog being 44.7% darker and deep ocean being 50% darker. Maybe a slight red shift toward blue-violet would work?

current progress on next version:
v1.6
Deep Oceans blended (except with Lakes, which should not occur; same 'sand' appearing as with Ocean-Lake blending)
Bug: When adjacent to the edge of the map, 'sand' from ocean-deep ocean blending appears and is not covered.
Irrigation redone with translucent 'mud' rather than opaque in terrain1.png
Farmland transparency increased from 0 to 20% in terrain1.png
Added Convert icon to unitextras.png
TODO: Differentiate deep ocean and fogged ocean better

Me too -- I've played a S2_4 test game with civ2civ3 and amplio2hexbig; enjoying it so far.

Indeed, this is the biggest problem I had with amplio2hexbig.
(Although I've heard others making the same comment about other tilesets.)

That was my best idea so far...
