I've included more explicit monster spoilers at the bottom of this page, for anyone who may be interested. For example, a Mumak is still a 'q' in GTS, but it is now a big gray
(The other 5%, I couldn't resist a little artistic license.) I've tried to be as consistent as I can with regards to the size and color changes whenever possible a monster's new hue(s) is somehow appropriate to its character or appearance, while the bigger a critter is 'in-game', usually the bigger is the letter depicting it. While the color and size of the dungeon's living (or at least animate) inhabitants have been changed in the GTS set, and in most cases extra distinguishing features have been added, roughly 95% of the critters are still depicted by the same basic letter or symbol as they are in ASCII. I've tried to keep the eyestrain down to a minimum as well. With the GTS copied into place, and the proper options added to your 'defaults.nh' file, a game of WinHack or Slash'EM should now display an entire level of the dungeon on your screen without any (serious) warping of the tiles, while still offering more information than ASCII about everything that you are seeing, stealing and slaughtering. It's been reported to me that that some NetHackers out have found the result to be a useful cross between the default WinHack tiles and the original ASCII version. Just the opposite I've pared everything down even more to a tile size of 20 pixels high by 10 pixels wide, while using as small a palette of colors as possible, and whenever possible, incorporating a version of the original ASCII character into each tile. This is not a more elaborate and detailed tile set, ala AllegroHack or Falcon's Eye. for my own amusement and convenience, for both versions I have created the Nevertheless, I always had a major problem with them: the default "all-ASCII" option just doesn't offer enough information for my taste, while the various existing tile options are either ugly, too big to fit nicely on the screen, or both. They are wonderful games with endless replay value, and the price can't be beat.
If you are using any thing that patches in new items, the set won't work. 'tiles' with the game is an evil perverted abomination, you may as well turn back now.Įverything on this page was created for Windows-based 'vanilla' versions of Nethack and Slash'EM. If you do know what NetHack is, but think that the use of any sort of graphical If you don't know what NetHack and Slash'EM are, go here and here posthaste for more information.
