I was going to make sections on a big tilset and make it all isometric, but have transition tiles so I could tile in the normal fashion and still have that angled feel.
Actually, for my server I am using an isometric tileset, graal does support it, it just has to be scripted for, just like everything that is not the default. The way we are scripting the server however would prevent any noticable lag, and there will be many elevations as well.

What you see in the screenshot above was me converting my isometric tiles into a graal compatible default, if you'd like to see some example of what I mean and how I did both ways, PM me. I'd like to keep the design at least semi-underwraps while it's still unique.
