New PC paintprogram for c64
Some of you might already know this, but i've been working on a paintprogram of my own for some time now.
It's based on Paint.Net (http://www.eecs.wsu.edu/paint.net/ (check it out, it's great (and free!))), so it has layer functionality, effects, all default tools, antialiasing, unlimited history and more fancy stuff you'll only find in that program and photoshop but my adaptation also has filters to convert to c64 formats (FLI, koala and single color bitmap but also the option to convert to sprites and more).
On top of that you can paint and draw in single and multicolour mode with all 16 c64 colours and a transparent colour.
Here's a screenshot of what it currently looks like and shows some of the features:

It currently doesn't export anything, because i'm not quite sure how to implement that yet, so any suggestions are welcome :)
For the moment i'd like to get some feedback and in about a month (I have to put together a document first on how to use it) I'll be putting out a first alpha version which people can test (this requires windows 2000/server 2003/XP and the .Net framework 1.1)
Cheers,
Mirage/Focus |

Mirage,
first THANKS for this SUPERB program.
The only problem I found is the way to load the PRG into the C64 and show my image.
I followed the (great) tutorial to build an indexed image with c64 plaette limitations, I export it as a prg, but when I load it in any emulator I can't see it correctly.
Could you be so kind to post the right instructions to load and show the image on a 64?
Thanks again. |

When you output a .prg it will be stored like this:
koala/hires-multicolour:
------------------------
pic - $2000-$3f40
charmem - $3f40-$4328
colourmem - $4328-$4710
FLI:
----
'FLIgraph2.2/Black Mail' editor format
art-studio/hires-singlecolour:
------------------------------
pic - $2000-$3f40
charmem - $4000-43e8
AFLI every two lines (half working UFLI mode)
---------------------------------------------
pic - $6000-$7f40
charmems - $5000-$6000
I don't think anybody will be using any other mode, so i'll leave it with this
Hope this helps :) |
