Windows C64 Graphics Viewer needed
Dear All,
Apart from Congo, is there any other graphics viewer on the pc that will read plain old simple .prg files, and just display them in a 8x8, 8x16, 16x16, etc grids just to look at the display..
I'm sorting through all my old disks, I've converted a load of source into .txt files, sorted files that are executable, and music, etc.... but I'm stumped with the graphics...
Is there an app out there for the pc that will help me with my task..
Regards
Paul. |

Hi Trooper,
I'm not completely sure, but I guess you're searching for something like View64 V1.51 |

C64 Ripper by StudioX64

You'll need to use it with CCS64, but it does 8x8, 8x16, 16x16 and sprite viewing/saving.

{Jailbird} That application seems to only allow fixed file formats, I was looking for something that could just load up a .prg (using the first two bytes for the load address) and display it 8x8, 8x16, etc in a windows gui (I prefer gui's to dos)
StudioX64 is sort of what I'm looking for, but it rely's on having a snapshot of either CCS or Vice and it scans through it...
Regards

trooper, c64 gfx files doesnt have headers or extensions to decide what format they are in, that job is up to you. other than the file size there's no way to know. but I think there's no utility out there that does recognise gfx fileformat based on filesize. try to give a go to congo, google will find it for you. ("congo c64") |

I guess the best viewer is WinVICE and a handfull of POKEs. |

Cuneiform by Scrapdog may be useful for charsets. |

{Stryyker} that looks like the one for me, I'll only be using temprorarily whilst I sort out my graphics... I'll be eventually writing an app that does similar with a few other tools built in...
Thanks again.... |
