Problem with David Gervais Tiles

[JoyrexJ9]

Sorry for posting yet another problem so soon!

But I've got 3.1.0 working now. I like to use the 32x32 tiles 'David Gervais' I'm seeing this...


Basically a cloak tile is being used for all unseen areas of the dungeon!!
This only happens if I select the 'David Gervais' tileset. It happens on the latest nightly build as well as 3.1.0-beta

Whatever is out of sight is cloaked in mystery...



Sorry, I don't use tiles so I can't really help much but I expect it's something that can be fixed by changing a line in a .prf file somewhere. Maybe check out 'interact with visuals'.

Thanks for the tips! and quick replies!

I fiddled with the various "Use special colors for X" options. And fixed it - if I turn off "Use special colors for floor grids" (view_special_lite) the issue goes away. Odd.
I might have a quick scan through the 'graf-dvg.prf' file see if I can spot the problem.

I'm not 100% clear on what that option means, but problem solved anyhow.

EDIT:
Changing line 17 of 'graf-dvg.prf' to "F:0:0x79:0x79" also solves the issue.

EDIT 2:
Sorry I didn't spot there was an existing topic on this, my apologies.

I believe it mentioned elsewhere as well but turning off the special lighting for floor solves this issue as well

They are provided with Angband, just select them in Options --> Graphics.

@joyrex --
you really don't want to play without view_special_iite--it makes it impossible to know where you've been unless you don't use magic mapping or clairvoyance.

The bottom line is: you should follow the recipe for fixing the cloak problem, and hope it's fixed in the next release.

I'm not sure that they are included. If not, you can get them here.
Put the files in you angband/lib/xtra/graf directory. Then just select them in Options --> Graphics.

They are definitely included in the latest versions 3.0.9 & 3.1.0
But if you are running anything old you will need to download them
