SNES graphics extraction and editing

Post by David »

I've started adding a level graphics editor to the level editor, but the edited graphics can't be saved yet. When it will be finished, I'll upload it somewhere.

Can you tell us a bit more on what the graphics editor will be like?
You're embedding an already existing open source/free software graphics editor?

As that page is no longer on-line, can you please attach that package to a post in this thread?
If the package is too large, please PM me and I'll add it to popot.org.

When you release the SNES Total Pack, will you also provide us with (the source code of) the command-line utility? ;)

I also attached a screenshot of the level graphics editor, as it currently looks like. (The other tab is currently empty.)

It works, but I haven't implemented graphics compression yet (only decompression), so edited graphics can't be saved.

Currently not. Do you know any existing graphics editor that can edit tiled graphics?

Thanks.

Looks promising.

Well, http://freecode.com mentions a few (search for tile and go through the results), but I don't know if these have usable features/licenses, and maybe it'll be easier to continue with your own code that you know well.

David, is there any way you could split this thread in two, where one is about a) PC->SNES level conversion, and the other about b) SNES graphics extraction. Afterwards, the latter (b) could probably be moved away from this Total Pack board, into either the board about Pr1SnesLevEd or the general board about PoP1 for SNES.

(I think you're currently the only moderator, therefore I'm asking you.)

Done.
Some posts that are partly about graphics remained in the old topic, like viewtopic.php?p=10799#p10799 and viewtopic.php?p=10806#p10806 , though.
But those are more about the conversion, and mention graphics only in relation to that, I think?
