Great Tileset, thank you! I am also interested in using them with HexKit 😃✌🏻 also: If I publish a small ttrpg adventure is it ok to use a map made with the tiles when adding your name and link to your itchio page?
Your tiles and icons are so beautiful, so it's hard for me to just give up and leave an issue with these tiles.
These .png tiles behave as if they are self-expanding, so that if:
- I reduce the size, they fit horizontally, but they do not fit vertically:
- I leave the original size, the right side and bottom of the tiles are "cut off" because they are "overlapped" by the adjacent tiles:
The original size of the tiles is smaller in width and larger in height. Even though I resize these tiles so that the tiles have equal width and height, when I import them into Hex Kit, the tiles still strangely stretch in width.
How can I "reformat" these tiles to make them compatible with the Hex Kit app? I don't have enough knowledge to deal with this issue. Are you able to help me?
It's great news that you're working on the Hex Kit conversion, because your tiles and your art are very beautiful and atmospheric, and I'm sure they will make a great impression on my players when I show them the hexcrawl land map on the online Old-School Essentials session.
They're PNG for the transparency! If there's a more convenient format to include, let me know and I can sort that out. (gonna add file info now though).
Ah ok, yeah I don't think I will be able to vectorise these any time soon, that would take a while for me. I made sure they're quite high resolution though, so they should be nice and crisp.
I thought that might be the case, just for me having them as vectors would be handy as in affinity I can setup a hex grid and drop hex tiles right on to it, but I am sure I can work around that.

Hi Moccachino, if you don't mind popping me an e-mail at adventure@slowquest.com I can approve something like this. I'm sure it'll be fine.

Hi there Adrsza,
I've actually been chatting with someone else who wanted to use these in Hex Kit, and they have let me know a better way to export them for this.
It's on my to do list, and now that you're asking too, i'll bump it up a bit. I might even be able to sort this out today for you.
I'll do my best and get back to you with an update ASAP.
Thanks,
Bodie
Hi Bodie! :)
Thank you very much for your quick reply! :)
It's great news that you're working on the Hex Kit conversion, because your tiles and your art are very beautiful and atmospheric, and I'm sure they will make a great impression on my players when I show them the hexcrawl land map on the online Old-School Essentials session.
I will keep my fingers crossed for your work! :)
Best regards,

Hey Adrsza, this is now sorted. See the newly attached files which should work well with Hex Kit!
Hello Bodie! :)

Best regards,

awesome job
Just wondering what file types are these?
They're PNG for the transparency! If there's a more convenient format to include, let me know and I can sort that out. (gonna add file info now though).
Personally for me, SVG's would be great, but depending how you've made these I can understand that might not be a simple option.
Ah ok, yeah I don't think I will be able to vectorise these any time soon, that would take a while for me. I made sure they're quite high resolution though, so they should be nice and crisp.
