Go to www.purezc.com and download a new tileset to start in.
If you want to rip in new graphics, Quest->Graphics->Tiles, then press the grab button.
I could spend half an hour explaining how best and how best not to use the grab tool, but seeing as I'm lazy I don't really want to.
Have a go working it out yourself and if you get stuck I'm sure me or someone else'll give you a hand.
I did that, but the file wasn't showing up, as if it's the wrong type of file...Originally Posted by CaRmAgE
I downloaded the tileset called, "PureTileset.qb1", and the other is a qst.
Hmm, I opened up a PureTileset file, and tried to rip out some tiles and place them in my current one, but after selecting what I wanted, the tile still remained as a blank red square... Don't know why it's doing that...
And another thing I'm really having a problem with, is items... When I add an item to my screen, it doesn't let me put it where I want to put it... Instead it puts it in the top-left corner, and I can't move it. :\
Ah, that helps. That's a quest backup file. If you want to get the tiles from the file, open it as you would with other quest files, and go to File -> Export -> Tiles Save it as "PureTileset.til" (or whatever name you want), then open your quest and import the tiles. There's probably other ways of doing it too, but I haven't used Zquest in a long time, so this is probably as much as I can help with this question. Sorry if this doesn't solve your problem.
On the main screen, press Page Up or Page Down until you see this toolbar at the bottom:

Click on the image with the rupee (first on the left), then click on the screen where you want to place the item.
Again, thanks for all the help. I just get lost when reading tutorials, and this is really the only way sometimes I can do these sort of things. :\
I got the color to work, the items, the moving from maps, etc. And figured out how to do the shop, too. I think I can take it from here, at least for awhile. I assume that it will get tough when I want to try and make the game look more modern? Or do most of the same rules apply? :\
Just start again in the PureTileset.qst file.
Trying to rip pure graphics into Z1 is a very bad idea.
Yeah, but the graphics given in PureTileset.qst is quite limited. I'de like to add as much tilesets to one panel of graphics, so that I have many options to choose from.

I have another question if anyone wants to answer it, then I'de appreciate it.
It's about bombable walls...
Tools > Combo Flags > 6 Bomb Trigger (Any) > Choose tile to bomb? > Then what?
What I want to do is bomb the wall, and have a Heart Piece underneath. I'm not sure how to do that, and also, if I bomb the wall, will the Heart Piece keep coming back every time I bomb that wall? Because I don't want that.
Thanks in advance!
Hmm, right on top of the bombable wall put some more wall combos on Layer1 with the "Bomb" Flag on them, and place your screen item underneath. I'm pretty sure Layer 1 is drawn over items.
I went to layer screen, but I don't know what to do with it. :\
I also can't figure out to have a staircase after bombing the wall, so that the staircase takes me to another room...
Screen -> Secret Combos -> Bomb tab -> Bomb
Click the black box next to Bomb, and select the combo for your staircase. Make sure the combo you select is of type "Stairs" or any other warp type you want.
Ohh, duh... Thanks again. :)
It worked, but it didn't make the stair walk down animation with the sound effects. :\
