The NeXTSTEP tiles is a recreation of a tileset used on a NeXTSTEP system. This tileset can be used with NetHack 3.4.3. The tiles are 10x10 pixels in size. The NeXTSTEP NetHack used one image per monster symbol, so eg. All ants get one image, all blobs get another, and so on. The images have parts which are colored on the fly to make the distinction between different tiles.

So about a year ago I was playing UnNethack on my kindle fire and using the built in Nevanda tileset, which I grew to love.

Now I'm trying to use the same tileset on a HP Probook 11 G2, and having a bit of trouble getting the Nevanda tiles to work. I followed the instructions exactly. I opened the defaults.nh file in notepad, added the 'OPTIONS=tilefile:nevanda3.6.0x32.bmp,tilewidth:32,tileheight:32' line,and made sure that it wasn't led by a '#'. I converted the tileset to a bitmap image, then made sure the filename was 'nevanda3.6.0x32.bmp' in order to match them so that it would find the right file. From my end it looks exactly as it should, but when I run nethack, it greets me with a message saying, 'Cannot load tiles from file.

Reverting back to default.' And then proceeds normally, starting a game, but using the default tiles, which I personally don't like. Help would be VERY much appreciated! Hmm, not sure. A couple of things occur to me to check, though.The list and order of tiles potentially changes from version to version, so e.g. A 3.4 tileset won't work with 3.6, or vice versa.

However, I glanced at the image you linked, and it appears to be intended for 3.6.Those instructions are specifically for getting a third-party modified version of the default tileset working with the Microsoft Windows GUI port, NetHackW.exe, where the third-party tileset in question was created by opening up the default one that ships with said Windows GUI port in a bitmap editor and making changes. (This is NOT the intended way to make a NetHack tileset, but a lot of Windows users don't know enough about computers to realize that there's such a thing as source code and that something like a tileset might have a source format that's rendered at build time into different formats for different ports for different platforms.) So following those specific instructions only makes sense if all of that applies. Are you using the Windows GUI build? The image you linked does look, at least approximately, like the sort of thing you get if you take the.bmp from the Windows GUI build and edit it. Note that the tiles need to be in exactly the same order for this to work. None can be added or left out.

The number of tiles per line has to be the same, everything. (The inflexibility here is because you're changing the tileset out from under the binary post-build, instead of building with a different tileset in the first place. The game binary expects to see things the way it was built.).Did you put the.bmp file where the game binary will find it, in the same directory (folder) where the default one is?.Is the.bmp in the same bitmap format (in terms of things like color depth, whether RLE is used, etc.) as the default one? It needs to be in the format that the game binary expects. I don't know the exact details (I've never used the Windows GUI port personally), but the format will need to be rather precisely the same. If the software you used to do the conversion doesn't have options for such things, you may need to use different image editing or converting software.

IrfanView can probably handle it, or Gimp. If you don't know what exact format the default tiles image for the Windows GUI port is in beyond just 'bitmap', either ask that as a separate question on here (likely someone who uses Windows will know or be able to find out), or if you have Cygwin or WSL (or if you have a.nix system handy) you can probably use the file command to find out.That's all I can think of off the top of my head. In response to:2) Yep! I'm using the GUI port.3) I thought I had put the.bmp in the right folder(the nethack folder that contains the.exe that I use) but after you responded, I thought I'd snoop around in the actual NethackW.exe. I looked at the archive and found the default tileset in NethackW/.rsrc/BITMAP. I think the problem might be solved if I could somehow put the nevanda3.6.0x32.bmp in the same folder as the default tileset, but I can't figure out how to do that by extracting NethackW.exe or some other method.4) I know that the file is a bitmap. I just checked the color depth in properties.

It turns out that the defaults are 8-bit color and the Nevanda tileset is in 32-bit color. I'm not sure how much that'll effect the game though.Thank you for helping!!. The color depth should be 24-bit, not 32. The original.png linked is 32-bit, and whatever image editor you used may have preserved the alpha channel, even though the.bmp format usually doesn't support transparency. How did you go about converting the file to.bmp?There's no reason to go poking around in the.exe headers. The default tileset is generated by the game's code; it doesn't have a file anywhere in the game folder. If the nevanda tileset is in the same directory as NethackW.exe, you should be able to load it.

When you download the image, make sure you are downloading the 'Original File'. The first time I tried to install the tileset I somehow ended up with a image that was not the right dimentions or resolution, so that was my main problem.

I opened MS Paint like GGGenom suggested, 'save as' 24-bit bmp, and saved it to the Nethack folder where NethackW resides. In defaults, I added the line, 'OPTIONS=tilefile:nevanda3.6.0x32.bmp,tilewidth:32,tileheight:32'. Of course, make sure that you don't just use the filename copied straight from here, make sure that you match the filename to the one you just created in MS paint. I think that's it. You can try running it and see what happens!

Hope I helped! Just let me know if you have any more specific questions. The office quest game review.
