hehehehehe, yeah, you're right bones.

bones, have you been working on replacing the bitmaps for RTC? we might be able to work together on this one. I've done some on puddles, doors, door frames, fixed all the flasks, weapons, food, characters and some wall items. i added transparency to a lot of it, so you don't see that neon look.

As for graphics, I have replaced a few wallitem and flooritem images (mostly just to fix 'errors') and no wallsets (I use DM2, it looks nice enough for me).
Mostly, I've done a whole crapload of mechanics (you know what I'm like :P ) and a fair few new icons (mostly weapons, the ones that I've done the 'cool' mechanics for).

By transparency, are you refering to having an alpha channel (so it's not just tranparent vs opaque)?

As for working on your project... that sounds pretty damn good to me. Unless you're meaning to start a brand new collaborative effort? I'm in on the too :P

I should show you my dungeon... I think you'd melt into a puddle on the floor. I can't even hint at most of what's contained (especially my new crown jewel, let's just say that I stayed up for 24 hours straight while doing it... because I couldn't lose it in my head). But, you can always PM me about it.
Saying too much would probably attract a large number of requests :twisted:

Not saying that others won't see it... and I plan on releasing the dungeon TXT file and resources afterwards, down the track Image

hohoho, melt on the floor. just over 1 meg this file is.
yes, the way say like the puddles show on the floor, to see through flasks, one addition i found nice was transparent smoke. it looks way better than the solid gray. and it's a simple one file replacement for the whole dungeon, maybe two if you use DM1 and DM2 monsters. try it out, takes a second to do.
