Short: Blitz Palette Re-map example Uploader: camge@ix.netcom.com Author: Curt Esser Type: dev/basic Requires: BDGFX library (Aminet/dev/basic) Distribution: FreeWare - use and distribute as you like What it is: An example showing how to remap the palette of an iff picture to your screen's palette. In the example, the picture is re-mapped and shown on your WorkBench screen but it should work with any screen. Also shows how to check for enough chip ram before attempting graphic operations, and how to read the picture's file header to tell if it is really a useable iff picture before loading. Notes: Turn Runtime Errors OFF or it will be very slow. Limitations: It may not work on a GFX card. Please let me know if it does or not. I think it will work on a non-AGA system. Again, please let me know if it does or not. It can't handle HAM pictures (but it does show how to check for HAM, and refuse them) It won't perform miracles. Re-mapping a 256 colour pic to a 4 colour screen will look AWFUL! This is a simple direct colour re-map. There is no dithering done, it simply picks the closest matching colour on the target screen. Your Bit: If you find any errors, or come up with any improvements please pass them along to me. Also, if you have any good examples on any Blitz related topics, please upload them here so others can use them! ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 4963 2094 57.8% 08-Feb-98 22:32:24 pal.remap.bb 1707 792 53.6% 08-Feb-98 23:41:52 PaletteRemap.readme -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 6670 2886 56.7% 10-Feb-98 06:01:46 2 files
