To modify displayed tiles, I needed both graphical and programming modifications.
Graphical modifications :
The David Gervais tiles I having been adding have already been used in some other games (please refer to the < links section > for a complete list). They are 32 x 32 bits big, instead of 16 x 16 for Adam Bolt ones, and 8 x 8 for old ones.
To display the new tiles correctly, I decided to use twice as much characters as previously. Here is a table giving the number of cars used, whenever “Bigtile mode” or “Double size mode” are off or on:
| # of cars used to display a tile | Double size mode off |
Double size mode on |
| Bigtile mode off | 1 car x 1 car |
2 cars x 2 cars |
| Bigtile mode on | 2 cars x 1 car |
4 cars x 2 cars |
Each D. Gervais tile is being included in the graphic file “32x32.bmp”, to take place of Adam Bolt tiles. You can have a look at all D. Gervais tiles I am using in the < Tiles Library >.
Coding modifications :
To get advice about compiling ToME, please refer to the < Compiling
section >.
You will find next all the files I modified to deal with
the new tiles; click on each one to get details about what have been changed
or added. Modifications deal
mainly with two categories: including new 32 x 32 tiles, and displaying them
with double size mode.
