Ok........... Seems to be working now in all Valid cases. Takes about 2 minutes to do the file conversion
But....... Do your Image in any current Paint Program. Save as Windows/OS2 BMP, 8 bit (or 256 colors). RGB encoded.
Don't use RLE encoding. This program is not super robust and currently does no Error Checking.
RENAME Your file to IN.BMP. Put it in the Directory where you will be running this code.
It takes about 2 mins to complete, but when completed you will have a VPAL.BIN and IMG.BIN that can be BVLOADED with BASIC or just copied to VRAM with C or ASM
I'm inclined to make this a bit more ROBUST and Scale or Pad other Resolutions as Necessary. But right now it doesn't do that. I'm thinking this opens up a lot of design tools to make screens for X16 programs.
I'm using Paint Shop Pro 3.11 which is kind of an old program. But one I have some Nostalgia for. I'm running it under Win XP
The current code ASSUMES 320x240x8 BMP file RGB Encoded and does no error checking. The Output files should be BVLOADED under Screen 128 ($80)
EDIT: I was using Paint Shop Pro on my XP system to do the saves. Some of the more modern paint programs no longer give you the option to save 8 bit BMP's
.
When using Paint Shop Pro to resize aspect ration is not preserved. The Image is full screen always. When using ImageMagick the aspect ratio is preserved. The files work but you end up with a border at the bottom.......... Either way works. I'm putting some of both results into my Slideshow.
Discovered another caveat to ImageMagick preserving the aspect ratio. It will make the image narrower than 320...
These images DO NOT process properly with my Current code. I'm trying to figure out how to make ImageMagick ignore Aspect Ratio so this doesn't happen. I'm sure theres a command line switch somewhere. But ImageMagick is a very complicated program. It amazes me how thorough it actually is. If anyone has a tip for me here I would welcome it.
Dug a little deeper in the ImageMagick docs. Putting the ! after the resize forces the aspect ration to be ignored. -resize 320x240! will resize to 320x240 in all cases. This may or may not cause significant distortion depending on original aspect ratio.
( I could also actually pay attention to the DIB header in my code and make it more robust )
It should work on any Input file that ImageMagick supports. Of course don't expect miracles. If you bring
in a 3096 x 1560 jpg. The output will work but it will lose some quality
Enjoy.
