Title: RMXP MapExtractor - BETA
Post by: ForeverZer0 on February 22, 2012, 12:40:45 am

MapExtractor
Authors: ForeverZer0
Version: 0.93
Type: Advanced Map Image Extractor

Introduction

This is small utility program I wrote in C# to easily extract maps from RPG Maker XP's .rxdata files and convert them to images to use for screenshots or whatever else you may need them for. It supports 7 different output formats and batch conversions. The program also is completely portable and does not write data anywhere to your registry, AppData folder, etc. There are numerous features (see below) that allow for altering the appearance of the map before saving, without actually having to change the map in the RMXP editor.

Features

Seven different output formats: PNG, JPEG, GIF, ICO, BMP, TIFF, WMF

Enable/Disable event display

Enable/Disable fog display

Enable/Disable panorama display

Change screen tone

Supports event hue, opacity, and blend type (Subtraction blend mode is not yet finished)

Tree structure for selecting maps just as it is RMXP

Different sizing methods for the map display, including center, zoom, stretch, and fill

Intuitive interface for easy use

Load projects simply by dropping them onto the form

Easily create full-sized screenshots of your maps without using scripts

More to come!

Screenshots

Main Form: Show

Batch Conversion: Show

Screen Tone: Show

Download

MapExtractor 0.90 (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20787370/MapExtractor/MapExtractor.exe) (1.88 MB)(Self-extracting archive)

Dependencies

Requires Microsoft's .NET Framework 4.0 (http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=17851)

Compatibility

The "Subtraction" blend mode for sprites is not yet finished. I implemented a "negative" of the images for now, which is not an accurate conversion.

Credits and Thanks

ForeverZer0

Blizzard and winkio, for some help with sprite blend type

Author's Notes

This is a BETA version, and is still incomplete. I do have a few more features I would like to include in addition to fixing the blending issue.

Resizing of map images and saving to those dimensions

Cropping

Importing individual Map###.rxdata files without loading a whole project (maybe)

Possible use of a rendering library to improve map speed instead of simply using the built-in GDI+

If you have a any ideas I would be happy to hear them. Keep in mind I have no intention of creating a whole new editor, so suggestions like adding new events, building maps, creating new layers, etc. will be ignored.

Please be sure to report any bugs. I tried a new method of combining many of the libraries into a single executable, which required a lot of trial and error to get a stable build. I did some debugging to try and ensure its stability, but it is possible a few bugs persist, so let me know about any you find.

I love you.

I;ve been using a 'game' map thing to export images, this looks MUCH better :P

Edit: I'm getting this error when I start it and open a project (any project, even new)

(http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/9038/regiond.png)
But it seems to work fine however just clicking continue.

It would be nice if it remembered the folder you went to instead of always defaulting to the same usser/doc folder.

Edit 2: Screen tone seems broke. It wont reset and it would be nice if it also remembered what it was set at rather then defaulting to 0000.
What I mean by reset is, you hit reset, all the bars go back to default, but the screen dosn't chang. whatever color you had before is the new 'default' and the files now effect that default.
Like... you make everything blue. close window, reopen, reset, siles are rset but your still blue, sliding the bars will just edit tha blue screen as if it was 'normal'.

I'll fix both of them very soon. Thanks for the report. :)

I'll see if I can get it fixed before the end of the night. They are both minor fixes, and I know exactly what needs to be fixed, so it shouldn't prove to difficult.

EDIT:
Alright, I updated to 0.9.3

Changelog:

Fixed screen tone issue.

Fixed the exception on loading a project (?)

Added a "Refresh" button to have the map redrawn. I don't think its needed, but there just in case

Added a memory for last opened directory

On another note, I forgot to mention that you can open projects simply by dragging and dropping the Game.rxproj anywhere onto the form. You don't need to use the load dialog. I should have added that to the pain post.

* Goes to updated main post *

OMFG! THIS IS EPIC! I wanted to make a Map item but I didnt want to make it look sci-fi (Like Blizz-ABS Map) but this will save my idea! Thx :D ++

EDIT1: There are some problems with layers, events ALWAYS show on top

EDIT2: I get errors the whole time saying "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, ... The path is not a legal form."

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Hmm. I haven't had any problems with priorities, but it may be a side effect of the loading error. I'll check into after work.

Hey Zer0, if you don't mind me asking, think you could PM me the source code?

Sure.

I'm on my work computer at the moment, but I'll send when I get home.

There are some bugs the have never fixed in this.
In all honesty, I would make this completely different if I were to do it again, I have learned a lot since I made this.

I may make some quick quick adjustments and see what I can do.

Le chemin d'accès n'as pas une forme conforme.

Spoiler: Show

:O.o: I've the same error with a map with a simple name
Le chemin d'accès n'as pas une forme conforme.
