This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

For user-created tilesets, see Tileset repository.

Graphics sets are used to change the appearance of creatures in the game. They usually come with certain tilesets and are designed to work together. They can significantly change the appearance of the game and make it easier for players to tell what is happening onscreen. This page serves as a repository for custom graphic sets made by users.

Last updated: Mar 11, 2020. The Meph tileset was the first graphical 32x32 tileset for Dwarf Fortress. ”It was born from my research about tilesets, finding old, abandoned 24x and 32x sprites by Dibujor and Obsidian Soul, both inactive since 2015. I thought that their sprites are too good to waste and started with them as a basis for a new tileset.”

The Meph tileset used Dfhack and TWBT.

The first complete 24×24 graphics set for Dwarf Fortress, GemSet provides the aesthetics of ASCII and convenience of graphics.

Drawn natively in a 24×24 resolution for 1080p and 4K displays, GemSet uses a bright 32-color palette with the intention of keeping everything crystal-clear on even the highest-resolution displays. All profession graphics are color-coded according to their ASCII counterparts and black has been kept as the dominant color of the graphics set.

All creature graphics are finished and TWBT support is currently in-development.

A graphics set that focuses on consistency and stylized realism to harmonize the different tiles and give a more "medieval" atmosphere to the game. Unlike other tilesets, this also specifically sets aside different tiles for grass with modifications to their graphics raws. This makes it easier to distinguish pasturable areas from bare rock and sand, tell apart different biomes, as well as letting you plan green (or blue, if you're going with cave moss) gardens along your entrance halls. Just make sure to forbid traffic on it to avoid trampling them to bare ground.

A tile and graphic set created with a simple, clean look as a goal. Inspired by Jolly Bastion and referenced from tile sets that have come before. This graphic and tileset is still very much a WIP. It should be completely playable as it is based off Phoebus' Tileset and comes with all of it's graphical assets.

This tileset was derived from Simple Mood by Rogue Yun. Also inspired by Taffer, Jolly Bastion, Quale's "scroll-o-sprites", and many others.

That's it. Engraved Dwarf Fortress. The idea of this set arose after a series of experiments including noise application to other tilesets, and, in other hand, after 4 year study of art history. Resulting tileset looks like hand drawn graphics and engravings made in XV-XVI century or maps of same epoch.

Installation: Unzip over DF install
Last updated: Apr 4, 2020

Sharp looking, vanilla styled tilesets that strive to strike a good balance between nice, attractive graphics, while avoiding odd graphical oddities. I have positioned many tiles carefully and put a lot of thought into each one, often obsessively so. I find the cumulative differences from the ASCII add quite a bit to the game. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and the update log attests to that, but the result is pleasing and well-polished. Alternate walls are included, as is the color set and racial graphics for dwarves, humans, elves, goblins, and kobolds.
