tommysticks Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I am so impressed. I can barely stand to look at the game without the Phoebus pack, mainly because the original ASCII hurts my eyes.I am so glad this exists. I thought I had the wrong game when I saw all the ASCII.

migulao Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I noticed in the site that the DF version is 0.40.19, but the only version of the phoebus graphic pack I can find is on 0.34.11v01.I don't know whether I should install the graphic pack or not.

Rathlord Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 ASCII and tilesets are completely down to personal preference; trying to make an objective claim that one is better than the other is somewhat backwards (and offensive to the people who worked on the tilesets/like playing with them). I personally like the tiles and have a really hard time with headaches if I look at ASCII for extended periods of time. Pick whichever one you like best. Regarding updated versions, there should be some updated sets out there. Old sets should work also, though there may be some oddities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
