  1.  How will we know if a tile set for sale (The Time Fantasy one) will work with MV or if tt is just for older versions.

     I don't want to buy a Tile set and then have to spend a day trying to make it work in MV.

     thanks
  2. All existing resources were made for 32x32 or 16x16.  No store packs are yet made for 48x48.

    You can use Shaz's plug in to reseize tiles in MV, but as you say, you cannot simply drop the tiles in without doing at least some work.
  3.  I sure hope they start identifying those what are for MV when they come out later.

     Thanks

  4. There are no tilesets or other resources from the store that are for MV yet.  When they are created and released, they will definitely state that they are for MV.
  5. In the case of 16x16 resource packs - eg. Time Fantasy, Old School Modern 1 & 2, POP! Horror City and Retro Halloween - the resources at least don't require any filtering to work with MV.

    It's simply a case of resizing the individual files, increasing by 150% (150 because the files you'd have upon purchase are actually resized already to 32x32) without any filtering or interpolation. While I can't speak for other content creators, I will be trying to update my pack with MV formatted/resized versions as soon as I can, but it's really not a complicated job at least for 16x16 resources, just a little time consuming. The results will look pretty chunky, but if you like the crisp pixel style, it works.
