Client Art Patcher

[dxrom]

As gimlet said, start slow... I remember doing these sort of mods and what I hated most was changing a bunch of things at once, just to have to redo it all again, although I never made a patcher, I always did it by hand and redid it like so.
Here are some ideas to help you out though, some things that I used to do.

Wall of Stone (the spell) - Make it a tile, or knock it in half.
Fields - Tiles
Roofs (for older houses) - Get rid of them
Crates/Bagballs/Candelabras/Barrels/Soulstones/Chests/Secure Chests(gold) - Make passable (I dunno if this is possible anymore, I have been attempting to convert these items to their previous tiledatas)
Bolas - Convert to older style (cannon ball stack), change hue (I did neon green)
Rings - enlarge (For tele rings and such)
Trees - convert to stumps (or something similar)
Clutter (grass/flowers/etc) - remove (same as roofs)
Living tree leaves - Remove (trees in fel are dead thus they have no leaves, however trees in tram based places of life have leaves, converting trees to stumps will leave floating leaves in Tram/malas/etc.)

Nice list. Wall of Stone is something I have seen before. Tree leaves are good atm, except in the jungle areas I haven't messed enough with getting the multi tile trees down to one, so it's not misleading whether it's actually blocking or not.

Grass/flowers will think about. Had thought about enlarging a few things, but want to make sure it doesn't mess anything up. Bolas I could change to cannon ball, but they're pretty easy atm too. Roofs as said, still debating.. Got to make sure people would want it.

Ah, yes. Multi tile trees are pretty easy, the ones in Yew are 4 tiles, so you will need to make each one a knock down and it'll just look like a 4 tile diagonal line.

[Kalaka]

Right but not all 4 tiles block. So Ill need to put some extra ones around the actual tile that blocks.. Grass I guess? Idk.

[dxrom]

Well, for some reason I cannot find Yew trees atm. I thought I had the address written down but alas, my notebook thwarts me again!
If I remember correctly though, Yew trees are six tiles altogethor, or eight... On of the two, however there are 4 tiles that block, just stumpy those 4, and hide the excess ^^

Tiles and a picture that Calculus at Askchopper used to replace the yew tree.

Great find gimlet. Exactly what I was looking for.. and you saved everyone from my
leet paint skills.

[dxrom]

Oooh! Excellent!
I never could get access to askchopper, despite the numerous bugs reported (and some published)

I finally got this working and have no idea why it wouldn't patch....

Anyways... Go to despise and put poison fields under the drop in. There's ONE graphic of the old animated poison fields there... for some reason it's just in despise.

could you possibly share the # for the bola please?

[Kalaka]

Will fix the poison field later today. Just missed one. I redid the entire thing the night I released.. Must've left bolas out by accident that time. Oops. Will fix that as well in the update tonight.

Still also looking to add more changes, but haven't had as much time the past few days, when I've been on I've wanted to play, so will try to get some more stuff thrown in throughout this week

If you can find that gold border that surrounds the play screen, and replace it with a clear one... or if not that then a 1 pixel green one - that'd be really cool for those expanded playsize folks
