Bioware's Tile Naming Convention

Post by Guest »

Ok, I got this off of a community website and I do not have the info to give credit. I pasted it into a txt file months ago... Sorry. [EDIT]Link provided -- MDA[/EDIT]

Tile Naming Conventions

First I'll start off with a run-down on Bioware's naming style.
ex. TTR01_A01_01
First Section TTR01

T -- Tileset
The first letter in all of Bioware's tile models is "T".
TR -- Terrain Rural
The second and third letters correspond to a particular tileset.
*See a listing at the end of Bioware's tilesets.
01 -- Version number
Have yet to see anything other than "01" in Bioware's tiles, so version number is more of guess than fact.

Second Section A01_01

A -- Tile type
A letter A thru Z. Each letter corresponds to a certain type of tile (eg. raise terrain, building, road, stream).
01 -- Tile number
A number 00 thru 99.
01 -- Tile variant number
A number 00 thru 99.
