I need to get tilesets for my comeback. Since things are getting so tech here I dont want to fall behind.

So say I go to the tileshop. When I click on "download" the pic shows up as bitmap form, how do I convert this into a .til form?

Go to quest->graphics->tiles. Go to where you want to insert the new tiles. Click on "grab"--that brings up the tile grabber. Click on "file". Pick your bitmap. Grab away! If you want to take them all at once, click leech.

Well alrighty then!

I doubt anyone remembers, but a while back I was going to create a quest called "Axis of Fire" but never got around to it. Thats where im going now.

Thanks, ill keep updated.

EDIT:What about tilesets? How do I get those in? They are in .qst files?

first of all, you need to export them with file > export > tiles.

on the quest you want to bring them into, open it up, find out what tile page the last tiles are on in you quest, go to File > Import > Tiles, enter that next page number, and import. simple as that

Two possibilities you have to get tiles from a qst file.

#1 Save screenshots and import them that way.
#2 Ask the author nicely if they can export what you need from the quest.

If it were me, I'd try #2 first, cause the former is a lot of work.
