Help with tileset import

[La_Stravaganza]

I've tried importing the tilesets provided along with the VX ace but for some reason they just wont appear right. And I don't know what to do

Check that you have put them on the correct tabs. Your screen shot shows that you have some errors with this.

Any tile sheet named A[plus name] must go on the A tab, and it needs to be in the correct slot there. So if, for example, you try to put an A3 tile sheet in the A2 slot, it won't work. That is because the A slots are for auto tiles which must be formatted in the correct way.

Tile sheets named B - E can go on any of the B - E tabs, as the way they work is identical. Please note, however, that the top left corner tile of the sheet on tab B must be left blank and be set to Star passability. If you don't, then you will mess up passability on all your tiles.

The tilesets provided with Ace should already be in Ace. Why are you trying to import them if they're already there?

The Sf tiles are not there

Can you please show us a screenshot of your Tileset tab, with that specific tileset selected?

@La_Stravaganza
You try to use MV tiles (48*48 pixel) in Ace (32*32 pixel).
That will never work, you need to rescale the pictures before they can be used in Ace.

MV has 150% of Ace size, which means you have to scale the tilesheets down by 2/3.

How to rescale it?

Use a photo editing program. Preferably Photoshop or GIMP.

I thought you said the tiles were provided with Ace? I assumed that meant they were the correct size for Ace.

It worked! My ghad I'm so glad all it needed was a simple rescaling! Thank you so much

I thought so too, but they aside from the initial tileset already provided the SF tileset that comes with it just wont work. Guess I just need to rescale it, thank you very much for your help

@La_Stravaganza You got that tileset with Ace when you purchased it? Where did you purchase Ace from?

You cannot use those tiles unless you also own MV, it is a part of the license agreement.

@mlogan : Those look like the SF tileset DLC to me actually. Maybe that is what they mean? I think Humble Bundle was selling those together at one point. And if that is the case, they should have both versions included (MV and ACE), and it should be a matter of finding the right now.

 

[mlogan]

@bgillisp No, those are from the Sci-Fi tiles that come with MV. That is why they didn't work - they were trying to put MV sized tiles into Ace.
