== Introduction ==
If you're writing a game for the CPC this cross-development GUI tool will allow you to generate ready-to-use sprites and loading screens for the CPC in assembly language.
This software is free and open source. It is very much work in progress, so if it breaks or is confusing, let me know!
== Features<br> ==
*Edit in Mode 0, 1, or 2. * View sprite animation preview at any frame rate*Edit hardware sprites for CPCPlus, with custom palette
*Export to MAXAM/WinApe ready assembler
*Select palette from authentic Amstrad set of 27
== Downloads ==
Download Windows XP/Vista /Win7 Installer here: [[Media:AMSprite_setup.rar|AMSprite_setup.rar]] 1.2 4 (Requires [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0856EACB-4362-4B0D-8EDD-AAB15C5E04F5&displaylang=en .Net Framework 2.0]) <br> Download Windows/Linux/Mac [http://mono-project.com/Main_Page MONO] Assemblies here : [[Media:AMSprite_mono.rar|AMSprite_mono.rar]] 1.2 3 (Requires MONO 2.4 runtime minimum). NOTE I have tested the program under MONO and most features seem to work OK but you may experience bugs... You should have libmono-microsoft-visualbasic8.0-cil installed too.<br />
The source code is stored in a Subversion repository [http://svn2.xp-dev.com/svn/lachlankeown-AMSprite here], and is publicly available (read only). I recommend [http://tortoisesvn.net/ TortoiseSVN] as a simple Windows based Subversion client. You will need VS2008 Pro or the free Express edition of [http://www.microsoft.com/Express/VB/ Visual Basic .Net 2008] to make changes. If you make any changes, send me a diff and I will integrate.<br>
