[CPCTelera] IMG2SPRITES in build_config.mk

[Arnaud]

Hello,
i'm playing with the last version of Cpctelera 1.3.2 and i'm using the build (and very useful) command IMG2SPRITES as in the example blendedSprites.

But when my project is build, the .c and .h files are generated in the same directory of my pictures (ex <my_Project/pictures>, is there a way to IMG2SPRITES to specify the output directory (ex <my_Project/src>) ?
Thanks,
Arnaud.

Hi Arnaud,

At the moment, this function does not let you configure output folder. It was thought to work similar to bin2c.

I've added your suggestion to tasklist. However, it will take time, as I'm abroad and won't return 'till the end of this month.

Glad to know it is useful 😊

Have a nice trip !

How about this in the meantime ->

Edit build_cg.mk

delete or comment (#)

Code Select Expand

CFILES         := $(IMGCFILES) $(filter-out $(IMGCFILES), $(CFILES))

add here

Code Select Expand

# Convert images
PALETTE={0 1 3 6 9 12 13 14 23 25 26}
$(eval $(call IMG2SPRITES,src/img/scifi_bg.png,0,g,80,128,$(PALETTE)))
$(eval $(call IMG2SPRITES,src/img/items.png,0,g,8,8,$(PALETTE)))

$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.c src/))
$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.h src/))

Don't forget to change the include from

Code Select Expand

#include "img/items.h" to

Code Select Expand

#include "items.h" i.e.

Thanks,

i have included the following lines :

Code Select Expand

# Convert images
PALETTE={0 1 3 6 9 12 13 14 23 25 26}
$(eval $(call IMG2SPRITES,src/img/scifi_bg.png,0,g,80,128,$(PALETTE)))
$(eval $(call IMG2SPRITES,src/img/items.png,0,g,8,8,$(PALETTE)))
$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.c src/))
$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.h src/))

But it does nothing my files are always in /src/img

I don't understand how works this make files

$(eval $(call IMG2SPRITES,src/img/,0,g,8,8,$(PALETTE)))
$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.c src/))
$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.h src/))

Did you put a # in front of
CFILES         := $(IMGCFILES) $(filter-out $(IMGCFILES), $(CFILES)) ?
And what are your IMG Files ? Are they the same name then scifi_bg.png and items.png ?
Else you don't need to add those two lines

And before a new "make", you must use "make cleanall"


If you post or PM me  your build_cg.mk we can have a look at it

Here my build file.

[SRS]

please try to change

$(call mv src/sprites/*.c src/)
$(call mv src/sprites/*.h src/)

to

$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.c src/))
$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.h src/))

Question: do you really want to extract tiles with Width 0, Height 0 ? Or is this making the full *.png into one tile ?

Yes it's what i want.

please try to change
$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.c src/))
$(eval $(call mv src/img/*.h src/))

Same problem nothing move

And when i comment the line

Code Select Expand

CFILES         := $(IMGCFILES) $(filter-out $(IMGCFILES), $(CFILES)) ?
The project make compilation error.


Here my test project if you want to take a look.

I was sure this worked yesterday, but today I can't get it to work, either. 

BUT (hehe) - why not put the PNG into SRC directory and change

Code Select Expand

# Convert images
PALETTE={0 1 2 3 4 6 8 9 11 12 13 15 16 18 24 26}
$(eval $(call IMG2SPRITES,src/test.png,0,g,0,0,$(PALETTE)))

Not so elegant, but ...

[Arnaud]

Thanks for searching,
it's as you, said, just a question of elegancy for not mixing code and picture.

My project works in this way it's what matter
