[GUNHED]

Great! And thank you for using English, so we all can read it. 

[Sid_]

New release.
You can find it here https://github.com/jeromelesaux/martine/releases/tag/v0.26
A lot of bugs fixed, oneline and onerow (allow you to display one line or one row each).


Stay tuned, ^^

Hi all,


a new prod shows Martine animation capabilities and can be downloaded on pouet here : [size=78%]https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=86955[/size]


All code and data files (images, script) can be found on GitHub : https://github.com/jeromelesaux/autobahn-showcase


Thanks @siko for all ^^

Hi,
i'm trying to convert CPC Plus Sprite Hardware with Martine and it doesn't work as i want it to.

[attach=1,msg195792]

Code Select Expand

martine.exe ship.png -spritehard -m 1 -tile -w 16 -h 16 -o output

What i'd like, generate sprites 16x16 with HardwareSprite format with 16 colors to a text file

What i got, only of sprite 16x16 in mode 1 with 4 colors

Thanks,
Arnaud

Well the documentation is not complet.
the sprite hard is an option dedicated to the cpc plus so you need to add -p (for plus).
martine.exe ship.png -spritehard -m 1 -tile -w 16 -h 16 -o output -p

[Arnaud]

Thanks but don't seems to work no more :

Code Select Expand

martine.exe ship.png -spritehard -m 1 -tile -w 16 -h 16 -o output -p

Here my output dir.

[Sid_]

missing the input option -I
I never use -tile with sprite hard option I must check the behavior.



martine.exe -i ship.png -spritehard -m 1 -tile -w 16 -h 16 -o output -p

@Sid_ Ok i can generate a sprite 16x16 (with source of the same size) but tile function is not working for now.

[Sid_]

@Arnaud you're right the tile function on sprite hard in not coded.
If such functionality interest you, tell me I will coded it.


Sid

[Sid_]

By using tile option what do you expected ?
Do you mean the same usage as zigzag or rra option ?
You want to compile your sprite ?
What kind of treatment you want ?
I 'm interested by your usages.

Hi @Sid_  ,


Is there a slideshow available for this yet?
If so I would like to record it for a YT video.


Cheers,


Peter

[Sid_]

well it's in wip, I just coded a little intro (with Siko) for now https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=86955.
It's a delta mode intro ^^.

By using tile option what do you expected ?

Hi @Sid_,
i need to convert an image (see my previous image as example) into HW Sprites arrays in C format (same behaviour as img2cpc) including the palette (in another file eventually).

An option to compress sprites or simply use 1-Byte for 2 pixels will be great.

Here an output example :

Code Select Expand

const unsigned char sprite_ship_0[] =
{
...
};
const unsigned char sprite_ship_1[] =
{
...
};
...
const unsigned char sprite_ship_7[] =
{
...
};

unsigned char* const tileset_ship[] =
{
   sprite_ship_0,
   sprite_ship_1,
..
   sprite_ship_7
};

// 0x0GRB
const unsigned word hw_sprite_palette[] =
{
0x0000,
0x02A0,
...
}

Martine already handle sprite and compression on sprite using -z option :

  -z int
       Compression algorithm :
          1: rle (default)
          2: rle 16bits
          3: Lz4 Classic
          4: Lz4 Raw
and pixel position in sprite like option -zigzag (same as imgcpc)


For the sprite hard (only for Amstrad CPC plus), nothing is already done. And if you wanted to apply those options on sprite hard tell me.

Yes it could be useful

[Sid_]

features accepted .
I'll added those features to sprite hard.

a new release is available https://github.com/jeromelesaux/martine/releases/tag/v0.27.
Now compression and zigzag feature can be applied to all sprites format (soft and hard).

new release is available with a lot of bugs fixed :
https://github.com/jeromelesaux/martine/releases/tag/v0.28


next step will be to add some crunchers and improve rasters option.

Any chance for a ARM 64Bit binary ? Tried to compile, but I get a lot of errors (maybe because I'm not a coder myself) ......

[Sid_]

Yep I can do it. I'll try tomorrow and if succeed, I'll provide it in the next release.

Ok not good architecture I'll try another. Sorry I don't have a 64 bits arm to test my self.
May you type uname -a ?

ok I tried to define the processor in the compilation command line (my bad).
This version may fix the problem : [size=78%]martine-0.28-arm-64bits.zip[/size]
