MaskConverter
« on: August 17, 2010, 02:09:39 pm »
Here is a tool to use for creating 3 lvl grayscale 16 x 16 tiles: 2 x 2 Pt-Mask sprites.
It generates hex data in ASCII format, which can be pasted into cemetech, and then exported and sent to your calc.
it reads every non-black or -white pixel as grey, and every pixel with an alpha of no 100% as transparent.
ask your questions in this thread about it when you need any help or support, or ask for new features when you have some suggestions!
It is written in c#.NET, so the .NET framework is needed, and I think it only runs on Windows machines.

when you used this for a program, I wouldn't feel uncomfortable at all when I would be added to the credit list   ;)

UPDATES:
1. fixed a bug
2. drag image files to the form to load them or open them with an openFileDialog
3. open images with this program, changed the layout a little
4. immediate hex conversion on tileselection, help button added

well, yes I know, and Wine should also work. There is a bug right now, so I'll update it, and after that you should try it, so not right now. It doesn't crash your calc or whatever, it just makes a tile from the upper left 8x8 pixels...

Seems quite nice.  It should probably be an useful tool. However I think it would be nice if we could select an image of the name we want instead of just one file name.

Darn, pretty nice :)

You should upload your stuff in the new upload section when it arrives. It would make it easier to find and this will be a great tool.
