Short: Turns a picture into a 3D grid look effect. Author: Kenneth C. Nilsen/Digital Surface Uploader: Kenneth C. Nilsen/Digital Surface Type: gfx/tools Grid Maker version 1.11 manual: =============================== Copyright © 1995, 1996 by InterMedia consulting. All rights reserved. Coded by Kenneth C. Nilsen in assembler. This program needs dfunc.library (by Kenneth C. Nilsen) and iff.library (by Chistian A. Weber). This program is freeware. V1.11 is a bugfix only! INTRODUCTION ============ This program will take an iff picture and transform it into a 3D grid looking picture. The methode used for this is based on the pen numbers in the picture. Color 0 is no delta pixel, color 1 is delta 1 pixel and so on. The program can take most resolution, including HAM (which though is not of very much use) thanks to Weber who made the iff.library. It will same the new 3D grid picture in the same resolution as the original, but with only one bitplane and the colors set by you (or default). USAGE ===== GridMaker [[inpicture] [outpicture] | [REQ]] [Options] InPicture - the name of the iff picture to be converted OutPicture - name of the finished iff picture Req - use requesters for filenames instead Options: -d = double curve heights -i = invert the way curves are drawn -NoX = don't draw the horizontal curves -NoY = don't draw the vertical curves -x[n] = grid size x, n=pixels (def.=7) -y[n] = grid size y, n=pixels (def.=7) -f[c] = foreground color by c=[$fff] (def=$00f) -b[c] = background color (see above) (def=$000) -p = preview process -h = halve the curve heights (useful with lores pics) -r = reverse pen methode. pen 0 = highest curve. -t = trigg exit, hold rendered picture stand by. -s = don't save to outfile. Arg name still required. -z[n] = zoom factor. Max 255. -o = draw points instead of lines. -NoB = don't draw 0 height curves. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 1558 1201 22.9% 05-Sep-95 02:09:18 +dfunc.library.info 3160 2261 28.4% 24-May-93 15:51:10 +iff.library 39980 11966 70.0% 05-Sep-95 01:21:44 +Grid1.iff 1586 1231 22.3% 08-Jun-96 03:58:56 +Grid1.iff.info 17878 13256 25.8% 05-Sep-95 01:35:24 +Grid2.iff 1586 1231 22.3% 08-Jun-96 03:59:02 +Grid2.iff.info 1188 543 54.2% 05-Sep-95 02:08:50 +Docs.info 6833 3037 55.5% 08-Jun-96 03:58:16 +GridMaker.doc 1567 887 43.3% 05-Sep-95 02:08:50 +GridMaker.doc.info 1188 544 54.2% 05-Sep-95 02:09:18 +Libs.info 14840 7842 47.1% 07-Jun-96 00:08:56 +dfunc.library 1558 1201 22.9% 05-Sep-95 02:09:18 +iff.library.info 1188 540 54.5% 05-Sep-95 02:08:14 +Pictures.info 1188 541 54.4% 05-Sep-95 01:22:32 GridMaker.info 1948 984 49.4% 08-Jun-96 04:00:12 GridMaker.readme 7928 3586 54.7% 08-Jun-96 01:01:42 +GridMaker 1558 1201 22.9% 05-Sep-95 02:07:46 +GridMaker.info 37460 11805 68.4% 04-Sep-95 23:57:58 +GridTest.iff 1586 908 42.7% 08-Jun-96 03:59:10 +GridTest.iff.info -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 145778 64765 55.5% 09-Jun-96 14:03:38 19 files
