Title: [XP] Bitmap2Code
Post by: Blizzard on January 10, 2008, 09:06:20 am
Bitmap2Code
Authors: Blizzard
Version: 1.2
Type: Script Development Tool
Key Term: Scripting Tool

Introduction

Ever made a script, but you need to include several little image files for it to work? This is not necessary anymore! With the Bitmap2Code converter you can simply convert bitmap images into RGSS code. Instead of loading the file into the memory from a file, the bitmap will be generated via code.
This little script allows you to quickly load bitmaps converted to code with the Bitmap2Code.exe converter.

Features


Screenshots

N/A for this type of script

Demo

N/A for this type of script. You can download the Bitmap2Code package and try it out, there are 3 example files within.

Script

Just make a new script above main and paste this code into it.
Script Download (https://downloads.chaos-project.com/scripts/Bitmap2Code.txt)

Download this package with the .exe and 3 example images to see how it works. Note that this here is ACTUALLY THE CONVERTER! You need this converter in order to create codes for images. There is also a file with the script code from the link above.
Bitmap2Code package (https://downloads.chaos-project.com/scripts/Bitmap2Code.zip)

Bitmap2Code script.txt
Bitmap2Code.exe
Bitmap2Code.ini
Bitmap2Code.rgssad
Bitmap2Code_PKE.exe
Bitmap2Code_PKE.ini
Bitmap2Code_PKE.rgssad

basically G_G, the bitmap2code.exe takes a picture and then creates a .txt file that has the needed code to generate the image through script.
you simply open the bitmap2code.ini file and use the tags in the readme to tell it which images to convert and how to do the conversion
then you would use RPG::Cache.load_code(file) to retrieve the bitmap that is the image you converted where 'file' is the name of the txt file.

No problem. One of the purposes of this threads is to get questions answered after all.
