There has been a SVG tileset in the works for Freeciv for quite some time now, starting with Arturo Espinosa-Aldama's "Worms" tileset back in '03, which was subsequently put on hold and the picked up by Frederic Rodrigo who has been working on it for the last two years or so as "R-Hires!". http://www.msg.com.mx/~arturo/Projects/Freeciv-Worms/ http://f.rodrigo.free.fr/art/freeciv/freeciv2.php Rodrigo recently let me know that work on R-Hires! has been put on indefinite hold now, due to technical problems (his rendering scripts don't work with recent versions of Inkscape) and a general lack of time. He donated the latest version - as seen on his website - to the Freeciv project. I got rid of some questionable content from the tarball (e.g. Bursig's old "Deluxe" SDL theme) and put it here: ftp://ftp.freeciv.org/freeciv/contrib/development/graphics/tilesets/r-hires!.5-beta1.tar.bz2 This is an ambitious project indeed -- Rodrigo attempted to recreate all artwork in Freeciv as vector graphics! There is a notable lack of graphics for units and city improvements, and the wonder set is incomplete. Otherwise, it's pretty much complete. If someone could figure out how to get rendering working again, I'd like to generate three sizes (e.g. Isotrident, Amplio and Freeland) and then use existing unitsets as fallbacks. It's a very cool tileset! ~~Daniel _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
