usage -> splitsdl.exe <pngimage>
the software is supposed to handle PNG pictures of 384 pixels width and any height from 16 to 273 pixels
IF not, a crappy resize will be done (NOT recommended)
Keyboard in quantization mode:
+/- to change current hardware sprite selection
T to enable/disable squares around hardware sprites
G to generate scr and asm files
L -> lock the bitmap and go to pixel edition mode
ESC to quit
Keyboard in pixel edition mode:
U -> unlock the bitmap, all handdrawings are lost
cursor to move current pixelleft shift + cursor to speed up a little
space to apply current selected color
keypad . and 0 (OCP style) to change current selected color
and again G to generate scr and asm files
B to put a background pixel over a sprite hard (enable transparency and put background color when inside an HSP)
ESC to quit

Here is a capture of the tool and two CPC+ cartridges so you may test yourself the performance
outputed files with a <file>.png image:
- <file>.xml settings file
- <file>.sc1 & <file>.sc2 binaries for screen files
- <file>.spr file for HSP data (packed 4+4bits)
- <file>.asm file for raster code
- <file>cpr.asm in ordre to generate a ready to use cartridge (use RASM to compile it!)
Looks promising !!! :o
The results are stunning !
Great work roudoudou !
This looks astounding!
Hope it gets to be released to all CPC users one day. :)
I was there !
That was awesome :o The Plus palette really does the job with a the pastel / yellowish colours of the Assassin Creed overview 8)
I'm wondering if you can use it in its full strength to convert a picture particularly optimized for your algorithm, with a slow gradient in hue (I'm thinking about a sunset).
Also, have you tried it with some graphics tailored for "scientific" value (if not for aesthetics ^^), changing 4 colours every line to a total exceeding 1000 in full screen ? (which shall be only a quarter of the Plus capabilities !)
Great job !
HUGE Thanks to Thomas/Lone for windows compilation tips!
win64 exe in the first post and a small documentation
This is a perfectible version, i'm still on a better compensation for HSP ;)
Have fun and do not hesitate to post your own CPR in this topic! 8)
new v4 in the first post ;D
color compensation in HSP, debug, debug, debug...
thanks to early users
Had a memory overrun during the day, there is a new version fixing this random bug :picard:
As Beb said, do not make boring slideshows with this ;D
I hope for a slideshow with such gorgeous pics.
Seems great. have you planned a CPC old version ? Or the number of available colors is a limitation ?

I already have a huge algo for the regular CPC but the latest IMPdraw version discouraged me to finalize the code generator.
With only 27 différents colors it's more a graphist job
Is it magic ? :-*

It's science b1tch ! And maybe a little empiricism (for the color decision algo especially designed for 12 to 16 color reduction!)
For the record i did not use octree like all existing softwares
It's a mix of Voronoi with max distance and all maths are done in a "supercube" of 4K cells but every cells of this supercube contains one or more "superpixels" with 16M precision
Arf, you lost me on the way!
So if I properly understood, it's magic that's it?
;D

Very impressive job, Roud'.
new release in the first post
Less leaks, moar chic!

it is not incompatible ;) The graphist draw with these constraints and your tool make the transfer.I'm pretty sure that it is impossible to do an easy to use/ergonomic painting program that take into account rasters/split rasters.
As I am too stupid (And do not speak french) I cannot work out how this works... I mean I am unable to get it to save any ASM files for compilation. so I have to live with other peoples image conversions. and those are just WOW!

I will update the first post will ALL keys i forgot to mention >:(

working on levels (more agressive than contrast but sometime useful)
also new realtime histograms + outputed color map
new evolutions for download in rastamix.zip (first post)
Very great project @roudoudou (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1714) !!
OK, Not the greatest but I am having fun :)
OK Guess who this one was done for?
future version will handle screens up to 273 lines for full full full screen and also tiny screens low to 16 lines (for logos, title, ...)
I'm currently working on an editor. When all settings are done, the screen may be locked to run bitmap editor then...
each time the cursor is changing line, the screen palette (at the upper-right of the screen) is updated
the sprite palette is active when there is at least one HSP on the line
the green cursor outside HSP (represented by blue squares) has obviously mode 0 size
Roud: don't miss to used cursor keys to move pixel editor cursor ;)

Roud: don't miss to used cursor keys to move pixel editor cursor ;)
it's ONLY keyboard to move the current pixel because there is one palette per line. Using mouse is too confusing.
still a last bug to fix with backups before release
new version with pixel editor in the first post - thank you to READ again the first post for new keys
this is still beta and there is no palette edition (until the next version)
better ergonomics in the new executable 8)
you may use cursor key to move current sprite and space to toggle zoom sprite positionning view or sprite mask edition

The solution is the 1st line of this topic:
splitsdl.exe <pngimage>You may drag'n'drop a png image into it, if you are not familiar with command line
