I haven't seen any mention of Dithertron or even its parent project, 8bitworkshop online IDE. It supports the Amstrad CPC 6128.

Dithertron takes pictures and dithers them appropriately for loading on 8-bit computers. Here's a sample MODE 0 image I made earlier:



The IDE even makes a very simple viewer stub in Z80 assembly language, so you can load the image directly. Here's a sample disk image: morris_minor-cpc.zip

Note that the viewer code stops in an infinite loop by default, but you can change it in the online IDE.

Awesome!!! I wonder if they have an API to dynamically convert?

That's pretty amazing!

Does anyone know how I can use the generated image file from C code? CPCtelera - as the CPC6128 examples are all using this - I'm using this tool as an intro to coding in CPCtelera C framework.


It did a great job of a mode1 image of my custom car  :o
