[SOLVED] Compiling with tinygui lets hex tiles overlap

Hi!
I compiled wesnoth from svn with ./configure --enable-tinygui but when starting a game all the tiles overlap each other. It seems they do not get resized.
What am I doing wrong?

Wow that is really tiny. Tiny you want, tiny you get.

Images files in tiny-gui are automatically resized at install-time (using imagemagick tools)
This is not perfect system but allow to spare memory, disk space and cpu (if we used run-time scaling).
Note that you will maybe have some text or dialog a little too big in some places.
I suppose that we will clean that when the 1.3.x will be less evolving.

they are generated on install time?
so I have to do make install??
I only compiled it and ran wesnoth out of the source dir.
can I somehow resize them without installing?

Well, I suppose. It mostly halves image size, but with some exceptions on story images and xp/hp bars (plz, don't ask why for this one). If you are familiar with makefile, the script is into it, just search "convert"

Alternatively, if it's possible, install it to a temporary directory will give you the data (and so the images) at the proper size and then you can move it where you want.

thx! I just installed it and copied the images over - now it works!
