Easy image v1 converter suports loading and saving: bmp tga png jpg pcx

Hello I have made your days of soned 2 easier.If your image editor does not support pcx then you can use this program to convert to any supported formats and back again.


All you have to do is make a bat file in it must have:


easy_image.exe "file location in double quotes" "save path including .file type"


Then you have got it a converted image.


Note:


To exit press any key.

download!


screenshot not much to see just displaces the image if bigger than 640 x 480 the image goes off the screen but all of it still saves.

 

This will definitely be useful for me. May I ask why you didn't just put in a toolbar or a Menu with an Open, Save, Save As and Exit option? If you want, I could code up a quick Java wrapper to call the shell with the right args if you wanted.

 

That's awesome!!


To edit my levels, I edit pixel by pixel xD

 

This is written in c++ using the allegro game program library and jpgalleg and loadpng not java.There are gui stuff but I do not know how to use the load file button.

 

What I meant was that I could code up a wrapper program that gives the user the option to pick a file to open and save, and then launch your Application by invoking it from the command line. Sorry if I was unclear.

 

Yes, GIMP is a nice app, and it does the job, but Sonic master's app is intended to simplify the task even more. Starting up Gimp takes a few seconds, whereas with his app, you launch it, press a button and be done with it. That can be done in a second or so. That would make things a few seconds faster, but those seconds will add up and let users have more time making layouts or editing ASM. Just a little more time, but some.

 

That would be great if you could make a gui for it! argv[1] is the file that it opens argv[2] is the saving file name.

 

IRfanView --> Reduce Image to 256 colors --> Save as PCX. Yup, Ordos... I agree on you. Also, this is my way. ;D

 

Slightly off-topic: Does anyone know why SonED2 actually only supports this shitty and pretty much unused graphic format and not PNGs or at least BMPs?

 

I believe it's due to the palette system, being able to change a single colour in the palette allows changes of ALL graphics (Including the object's graphics) without having to modify them, had they have been in PNG, changing their colour would probably take a lot of time.

 

Basically, PCX was only chosen because Stealth was too lazy to program PNG or BMP support? GIF would work since you can save it with a pallet.

 

I think the reason why no other formats are supported is because soned2 does not use a library with the other formats support.
