The haze's and teleporter are new, and I love the "wet paint" for the fake pit
Will chop those up later on. Currently the editor puts the base tile down and then puts masked images over the top of them, so I could use the backgrounds being made shocking pink (255,0,255) as I have fixed the masking problems now. Certainly for items this would be useful as there can be multiple items on each square. Same for monsters.
Any chance of this cows, the tiles are looking slick as usual chop them up and put them in the editor probably tomorrow.
Cheers mate, much obliged.

No need to chop them up.. I'll do that since I have them all saved as tiles already. The power pink stuff I can do easy enough but they should be done so it makes sense to do that.
I think in some cases you should just hold your mouse over and to the right in a window it should show all things on that tile since the GFX are too small to be able to show properly more than one thing per corner at a time.
The thing beside they keys is armour yes. The "step ladder" is a fake wall I was trying to show it not being solid.. perhaps something else would be better. I think on it more..

ok so what's the deal on the PNG's? I notice you have a whole whack of them in the zip but I can't open them.
I'm looking at alpha posibilties as you well know. That means TIFF and PNG. I know you say the power pink is your deal but it always looks soooo horrid. I'd sooner make alternate versions to cover all bases than do that for most things. Right now there is only one real instance where I can really see the need for it and that would be the shadow area I've made.. it helps sell the 3D aspect of things and it can be made a 32x32 image rather than th 64x64 that the tiles are so it would save memory. Surely one or two alphas couldn't hurt right?
or perhaps a greyscale image that the white can simply be made transparent and the greys translucent and the black opaque. essentially what an alpha does but it's just on it's small values as a indexed image or something? 16 colours greyscale.
