So, have got replacing graphics/bitmaps working (thanks to you guys..), next question, is it possible to change the wall text graphics? Am experimenting with a dark wallset, which generally means I need to darken some of the standard graphics (skeletons look really bright on dark background, for exa...

will certainly share my dungeon if it's any good. But that's a big 'if'...

Is there a way to extract the standard bitmaps to use as a base for customised bitmaps? Whilst RTC displays them in the application window, I couldn't see where they are stored other than in the graphics.dat files

Have solved the issue, it was to do with left and side wall co-ords being incorrect and making it appear as if there is a flat wall in front. Not sure why the co-ords went off placement however, it was like they had been changed somehow automatically between saves and exports. But now have a handle ...

First of all, thanks to all for the responses to my questions (Gambit thx for taking time to look at my files, appreciate it). Am now getting somewhere. I have been tweaking the co-ords, to make the bitmaps sit in the right spot. Linflas thx for the tip on RTC create new wallset - I hadn't delved in...

Is there a "correct" list of what the co-ordinates should be for any given bitmap? It looks like RTCWM controls the co-ordinates from within the programme when 'generate RTC code' is used. Do you make your own bitmaps? If so, what method / programme do you use? Is there an archive of what ...

Gambit, many thanks! I haved added the missing alt bitmaps, and now have the dungeon opening correctly. However, some bitmaps seem to be out of position, making the walls look a bit odd. I have tried to amend a few of the position co-ordinates (ie POSITION=(326,18)) of the bitmaps in the dungeon .tx...

Hi there, thanks! Have emailed you the files.

I used RTCWM to create the .bmp files (using Save Bitmap command), having imported some test textures .jpgs into RTCWM. The wall set prefix was left as 'custom' in the wallset prefix box. The text in the dungeon txt file above was copy/pasted out of the Generate RTC code txt file, following the inst...

Hi Gambit, am having prob trying to find a place to post files to (and can't attach to this post). File locations and folder names are as above, the bitmaps are not corrupted (ie they all open correctly in an image editor). I did not make the alternate .bmp files, but assume this won't stop all the ...

Thanks for the welcome and thanks for the responses guys. I have my bitmaps folder in the root of RTC. Does it matter where RTC folder lives? Currently it's on my desktop, but that shouldn't make a difference I guess if RTC looks locally first? It's here: C:\Users\....\Desktop\RTC_V049\bitmaps\ RTC ...

Hi Linflas. Have tried RTCWM, but have some problems. I have exported the BMPs, have edited the TXT file that RTC creates for my dungeon by replacing the lines as per your instructions. The problem is, RTC won't load the dungeon correctly, and reports errors. It says some files cannot be found, and ...
