I have tried deleting the current set but then it just doesnt play, I tried replacing the files in the folder with the other tilesets files, but neither work.

So how do you change the active set?

(Noob question, unrelated: Whats IIRC mean?)

Okay, in data/gfx.txt you’ll need to add # in the Deon’s tileset section at lines starting with “JSON: gfx/” and "TILESET: gfx/"  
After you do that, remove the # from the lines under Hoder’s tileset section that correspond to the lines you added # to in Deon’s. I’m working on making this easier, and will be much easier to switch once the Mod Manager is fully up and running. Sorry that it isn’t really explained anywhere \>.\<

I’ll make it even simpler for those who want to change tilesets easily but don’t know how to change the # themselves.

[NOTE: _Always_ make a backup file first!!]:

\*\*\*For Hoder’s tileset, delete everything in the data/gfx.txt file and cut & paste this instead:

#Until multiple tilesets are implemented, there should only ever be these two entries  
#in this file.

#Paths to Deon’s tileset: gfx/DeonTileset/tile\_config.json & /deontiles.png  
#Paths to Hoder’s tileset: gfx/HoderTileset/tile\_config.json & /hodertiles.png

#DEON’s TILESET  
#JSON Path - Default of gfx/tile\_config.json  
#JSON: gfx/DeonTileset/tile\_config.json  
#Tileset Path - Default of gfx/tinytile.png  
#TILESET: gfx/DeonTileset/deontiles.png

#HODER’S TILESET – Commented out  
#JSON Path - Default of gfx/tile\_config.json  
JSON: gfx/HoderTileset/tile\_config.json  
#Tileset Path - Default of gfx/tinytile.png  
TILESET: gfx/HoderTileset/hodertiles.png
