Usage

img2cpc [OPTIONS] fileNames

Options

--help Help. Show usage.

-bn, --baseName ARG Tile base name. If not set, the filename will be used. The base name will be prepended to the filename, unless the absoluteBaseName switch is specified.

-abn, --absoluteBaseName Absolute tile base name. This switch should be used in conjuction with the baseName switch. If specified, the base name specified will be the identifier to use when generating data, and the file name will be ignored.

-f Create a flipped values look-up table for the current palette and mode.

-fwp, --firmwarePalette ARG1[,ARGn] Palette specified in firmware values.

-g, --generatePNG Generates PNG images, one per tile and one per mask (if transparency is set).

-h, --tileHeight ARG Tile height. If not set, the image height is used.

-hf, --halfflip HalfFlip. Generate data with odd lines preflipped.

-hwp, --hardwarePalette ARG1[,ARGn] Palette specified in hardware values.

-im, --interlacedMasks Interlaced masks. Mask values will be interlaced with pixel values.

-m, --mode ARG Specifies the CPC Mode to generate data for. Valid values are 0 (default), 1 or 2.

-map, --tilemap Generate tile map

-nt, --noTileset Don't create tileset. Use this if you are creating sprites and do not need a table with all the tile pointers.

-o, --outputFileName ARG Output file name. Default value is gfx. img2cpc will append the proper extension based on format.

-of, --outputFormat ARG Output format. If not set, data will be generated in assembly format.

--oneFile Generate one output file per processed file. Files will be named using the base name (if specified) and the source file name.

-opfw Output palette (firmware values)

-ophw Output palette (hardware values)

-os, --outputSize Output tile size as constants. #defines will be created in C, EQUs in assembler.

-p, --palette ARG Specifies input palette file.

-rgbp, --rgbPalette ARG1[,ARGn] Palette specified in RGB values. RGB values must be specified as 0xRRGGBB, where RR, GG and BB are hexadecimal, or as an int value.

Examples: 0x1122FF, 255

-s, --scanlineOrder ARG1[,ARGn] Scanline order. Default value is 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7

-t, --transparentColor ARG Specifies transparent color (as index in palette).

-ta, --transparentAlpha Uses transparent pixels from image (alpha value=0). This option should be used with mask always.

-w, --tileWidth ARG Tile width. If not set, the image width is used.

-z, --zigzag Zigzag. Generate data in zigzag order.

Examples

img2cpc -w 8 -h 8 --outputFormat asm -bn tile -m 0 tiles.png

Use palette in src/config_rgb.json, output C format, images in mode 0, output file name gfx.c, create PNGs, base name: tile, tile size 32x32. img2cpc -p src/config_rgb.json -of c -m 0 -o gfx.c -g -bn tile -h 32 -w 32 bee.png

Use palette in src/config_rgb.json, transparent color is 0, output C format, images in mode 0, output file name gfx.c, create PNGs, base name: tile, tile size 32x32. img2cpc -p src/config_rgb.json -t 0 -of c -m 0 -o gfx.c -g -bn tile -h 32 -w 32 bee.png

Use palette in src/config_rgb.json, transparent color is 12, output ASM format, images in mode 0, output file name gfx.s, one tile in image. img2cpc -p src/config_rgb.json -t 12 -of asm -m 0 -o gfx.s RYU_STAND_0.png

Use palette in src/config_rgb.json, transparent color is 12, output ASM format, images in mode 0, output file name gfx.s, one tile in image, data in zigzag. img2cpc -p src/config_rgb.json -t 12 -of asm -m 0 -o gfx.s -z RYU_STAND_0.png
