60 tiles to create a nice variety of medieval buildings. Isometric view, for a tile base of 64x32. The tiles are 64x192.
Created for OSARE and for the Old City friday challenge.
Roof texture is from the public domain Blender Texture CD. Stone texture is by Sindwiller: http://opengameart.org/content/old-brick-wall
If someone wanted to try them out (say in GIMP), set the tileset grid to 64x192 and make a new image with a grid 32x16. Turn on snap to grid on both. You should see the right pieces fit together. Note you have to work back to front or with layers if you forget to plan ahead.

Hi,
those look like if they have been made using a render of a 3D model (and then some postprocessing). If so, would you mind posting the 3D model aswell?
Oops yeah, thought I had attached that already. Now attached.
The Blender file is set up in a funny way. I have all the tiles parented to an empty object. I animate the empty object so it scoots left each frame. So basically I can just click the Anim button to render all the tiles out.
The only post-processing is that I use ImageMagick's montage to pull the renders into a single png file.
Cool stuff :) One small tip regarding Blender workflow: instead of using an empty mesh object as the "RenderPlatform", you could add the Empty object (Add->Empty). It doesn't get rendered and is suited for these things, since the axes make it easier to select it.
Lamoot, thanks for this tip! I'm definitely using empty objects more since you showed me this.
This site needs a button "Add all Clint Bellanger to Favorites" :)
vlab22: agreed! I can sometimes tell when someone is new to OpenGameArt because my inbox gets a wave of "Someone added your art to their Favorites!" notifications :)
Sorry for the silly question but is there a way to implement that art in a 32x32 map? :( tried though it leaves big gaps so I can't construct my house :( sorry for the noobish question, still learning game development :(
Anon, these tiles only work on 64x32 isometric tile bases. I don't know of a good way to render these for square base tiles, besides stretching the parts in a weird way.
My experience fo far with this tileset is that it takes some time to assemble a house, because it is quite difficult to see where tiles belong and which don't. Would it maybe not an idea to provide another tileset, based on this one, with some pre-made houses? People who want their own set of houses can then use this tileset, others can use the pre-made ones.
Is it OK if I take a screenshot of the whole house instead of the separated tiles and use that in a game?
Thanks a lot!
Thanks, I used this in my game
