[Release] New Custom Ice Tileset For Dune 2000


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Yo! 

I originally started this project as a means to improve my pixel art skills. Starting with little to no experience I knew this would be a daunting task to replicate the iconic style of Dune 2000. 

After approximately 6 months of on and off work on it, I'm happy to say it's finally complete.

Download link is at the bottom of this post!

 

Here are some in-game screenshots showcasing the new tiles:

The preview mini map colours have been altered too:

I have also repurposed the original 32 rock crater sprites to match:

Here is the tileset as a whole:

And finally here is a quick playthrough of an earlier version of this tileset which displays the crater sprites:

How to install:

- WARNING: Make a backup of Dune 2000/ data to return to vanilla.

- Unzip "Dune 2000 Icy Tileset".

- Locate Dune 2000/ data and copy "BLOXICY.R16" and DATA.R16 into it.

- Locate Dune 2000/ data/ bin and copy "TILEICY.BIN into it.

 

Also a special thanks to the guys over at the Dune 2000 Singleplayer discord!

This is so cool. I really need to try it. I have in mind a Tleilaxu Sequel and I am sure that I wanted to use the ice one for (at least) the very first mission, but this is much better.

Seconded. I can't wait for the cave tileset to come out too, Kipp is doing some seriously beautiful work on that. :D

I only have the Open RA version dune 2000 and i can't seem to find a "data" nor "bin" folders :( how to i install this?

OpenRA is different! different engine and all that stuff. therefore, this process is not applicable to anything OpenRA

they probably have another way to get custom tilesets in, but I wouldn't know how that works :P so, good luck!
