REG tileset to an iso tileset

Ok, im making a Final Fantasy Tactics game and id like to use isometric tilesets so id like to know how to change regular tilesets into iso format using paint. So, if any one can help id greatly appreciate it.


(NOTE: im using GubiD's TBS.)
 
Simple answer: You can't.

There is no option that allows you to turn a regular tileset into an isometric one, just like that. You'd have to sprite it from scratch.
If it was that easy a hell lot more people would use isometric tiles.

Besides you'd have to rescript the cursor, so it supports isometric view.
 
A normal TBS works fine...you don't need it Isometric at all...

And you can't. Maybe for floor or wall tiles that you just warp around (bad idea to begin with, it messes up the palette) but any tile that has any depth you're screwed (unless you want it to look like a flat thing). So you'd have to make most of the tiles yourself...
