adding texture to a rpg game

[Antone333]

so i made a very simple console rpg game. it is the start of an rpg. and what i am wondering is how do i put tiles to the characters?

thanks for the help!

@ = character
W = water
M = mountain
T = tree
E = exit

this is what the map looks like.

    "###########################",
    "#                         #",
    "# @          WWW          #",
    "#            WWWW         #",
    "#           WWW           #",
    "#                     T   #",
    "#   T                     #",
    "#      MM                 #",
    "#     MMMM                #",
    "#                   T     #",
    "#     T                   #",
    "#               T         #",
    "#               W         #",
    "#             WWWW        #",
    "#      T     WWWW         #",
    "#             W      E    #",
    "###########################"

You are going to have to use a 2d/3d graphics library for textures. I would suggest checking out SFML/SDL/OpenGL.
