The asset files are PNG images. They are grouped with configuration files for Wonderdraft. Thus once installed on Wonderdraft, the colors of the assets are customizable and/or paintable and/or pre-defined (see the description of each pack).
You can also use the assets with any image editing software such as Photoshop or Gimp if you create a map on one of these software programs.
For Wonderdraft:
For assets with no theme included, such as the seafaring megapack:
- Unzip the folder, for example with the seafaring pack, you will have a folder named “Seafaring megapack”.
- Open Wonderdraft, click on “menu” in the top left corner, and in the list choose “open user folder,” which will open a Windows folder for you.
- Double-click on the “assets” folder and then copy or cut and paste the unzipped folder (in this example, the folder: “Seafaring megapack”) into the assets folder.
- Then create a new project on Wonderdraft. You will find the new assets in the list of all assets.
If you were already doing all of this before and you don’t see the assets, go to the “assets” tab of Wonderdraft and check that the asset packs are checked.
For clarity, here is an image of the exact location where the folder should be:
And here is where the pack should be checked:
For packs with themes, such as the Conan complete pack, you have to copy-paste the two unzipped folders (assets and theme) directly into the user folder of Wonderdraft, and this will merge with the assets and themes folders already present.
For an image editing software:
You can use the transparent black and white images on a layer set in multiply mode. This way, the white color will be transparent, and you can colorize these assets with the colors of your choice on a layer below.
You can also use the PNG images with primary colors and select the colors of your choice by changing the hue of each of the three primary colors.
The full-color images (normal color) can be used as is.
