TI Map Generator
by Artraze


Intro

This is a utility that can convert color bitmap files of any size to 2 layer (4 color) grayscale C code that can be used with TIGCC.  It is a semi-beta state as it was not built with releasing it in mind, but works well.

Usage

First load the bitmat by clicking File then Open then the desired bitmap.  It will immediatly start converting the picture to grayscale.  This may take a while depenting on the size of the picture, but you can tell when it is done when the textbox on the left is equal to the textbox on the right.  That image can then be saved by going to file, save picture.  The next step is to convert the picture to C code.  Click File, Convert to begin.  THIS WILL TAKE LONGER THAN THE PICTURE DID.  There are two parts to the conversion process: the analisis then the conversion.  The analisis is raqther quick and is over when the textbox on the left is equal to the textbox on the right.  Then the conversion process is over when you hear a beep.  The menu item "Save C Code" is now available. Use that to save the C code.  NOTE: some times NotePad cannot read the text file simply use WordPad if this happens.
