Img2CPC

2015-07-22T18:32:07Z

Ronaldo:

[[Category:Stub]]
[http://www.amstrad.es/forum/download/file.php?id=840 '''Img2CPC'''] is a command line tool, developed by AugustoRuiz using C#. You will need the .NET Framework 2.0 to run it properly.

<pre>
Usage:

Img2CPC [/w=width] [/h=height] [/g] [/bn=tileBaseName] [/m=mode]
[/t] [/f] [/o=output] [/c=80] [/cbb] files

* w: Tile Width. If not specified, it will process the whole image width.
* h: Tile Height. If not specified, it will process the whole image height.
* g: If specified, it will generate one bmp file per tile.
* bn: Base name to be used for asm labels.
* m: Pixel mode. Valid values are 0,1,2. If not specified defaults to mode 0.
* t: Transparency. Creates masks for transparent pixels.
* i: Interlace masks. Creates masks for transparent pixels, mixing them with sprite data.
* f: Flipped values LUT. Creates a look-up table with flipped bytes for the current mode.
* o: Output file name. Default value is gfx.h
* c: Create compiled sprites. Screen width in bytes can (should) be specified. (Default
width is 80). File name will be compiled.[outputFileName]
*cbb: Create backcuffer compiled sprites. File name will be bb.compiled.[outputFileName]
*files: List of files to process. Wildcards can be used (*.png)
</pre>

You can specify Img2CPC the palette you want to use. Depending on the mode specified, the program will reduce the number of colors of the original image to 16 colors (mode 0), 4 colors (mode 1) or 2 colors (mode 2). To change the palette that the program uses, you can modify the Img2CPC.exe.config file, which is a XML file.

There is a node in that file like this:

<pre>
<add key="PaletteColors"

<br>Please, do not change the key, just the value. The value of this node represents the palette colors in RGB, using commas to separate the color components, and a sharp to separate the colors.

There is another node like this:

<pre>
<add key="TransparentColor" value="0"/>
</pre>

Which specifies the color that will be assumed as transparent (in this case, it will be the first color in the palette). This is only taken into account if you want to create sprites (tiles with masks) or precompiled sprites.

The color reduction is performed using a nearest color algorithm, so the original image can have as many colors as you want (although you will get better results if the original image has the same palette you specify in the config file). The "g" switch can be useful to check the color reduction results without having to use a CPC emulator.

Latest versions of Img2CPC are included in the [[CPCtelera|'''CPCtelera game engine''']].

[[Category:Stub]]
[http://www.amstrad.es/forum/download/file.php?id=840 '''Img2CPC'''] is a command line tool, developed by AugustoRuiz using C#. You will need the .NET Framework 2.0 to run it properly.

<pre>
Usage:

Img2CPC [/w=width] [/h=height] [/g] [/bn=tileBaseName] [/m=mode]
[/t] [/f] [/o=output] [/c=80] [/cbb] files

* w: Tile Width. If not specified, it will process the whole image width.
* h: Tile Height. If not specified, it will process the whole image height.
* g: If specified, it will generate one bmp file per tile.
* bn: Base name to be used for asm labels.
* m: Pixel mode. Valid values are 0,1,2. If not specified defaults to mode 0.
* t: Transparency. Creates masks for transparent pixels.
* i: Interlace masks. Creates masks for transparent pixels, mixing them with sprite data.
* f: Flipped values LUT. Creates a look-up table with flipped bytes for the current mode.
* o: Output file name. Default value is gfx.h
* c: Create compiled sprites. Screen width in bytes can (should) be specified. (Default
width is 80). File name will be compiled.[outputFileName]
*cbb: Create backcuffer compiled sprites. File name will be bb.compiled.[outputFileName]
*files: List of files to process. Wildcards can be used (*.png)
</pre>

You can specify Img2CPC the palette you want to use. Depending on the mode specified, the program will reduce the number of colors of the original image to 16 colors (mode 0), 4 colors (mode 1) or 2 colors (mode 2). To change the palette that the program uses, you can modify the Img2CPC.exe.config file, which is a XML file.

There is a node in that file like this:

<pre>
<add key="PaletteColors"
value="244,0,244#0,0,132#0,132,132#0,244,132#132,0,0#132,132,0#132,244,0#

'''''CPCtelera''': Astonishing fast Amstrad CPC game engine''

[[File:cpctelera_logo.jpg|right|450px|CPCtelera Logo]]

'''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/ CPCtelera]''' is a multiplatform framework for '''''developing games''''' and multimedia software for Amstrad CPC. '''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/ CPCtelera]''' runs either on ''Linux, OSX and Windows (with cygwin)'' and makes it easier to start developing games in '''C''' or assembly languages for Amstrad CPC.

'''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/ CPCtelera]''' is also thoroughly documented, has a complete reference manual and the code is comented in depth.

== Starting with CPCtelera ==

* Download latest release from '''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/ CPCtelera main project page]'''.

* Follow '''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/files/readme-txt.html#Installing_CPCtelera install instructions]'''

* Start programming and consult the '''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/files/readme-txt.html Reference Manual]''' for API details.

If you want, you can also get latest under-development versions from [https://github.com/lronaldo/cpctelera its Github].

== Features ==

=== Low-level programming API functionalities ===
[[File:cpctelera_working_fade.png|right|450px|Coding an example with CPCtelera]]
* Draw normal and masked sprites
* Draw solid colour boxes and speed up sprite trail erasing!
* Reproduce audio and sound effects
* Create fade-in / fade-out effects with your sound FX and music!
* Mix-up sound effects with music, using the 3 audio channels for both at the same time!
* Draw strings and characters using ROM characters without using firmware.
* Change the complete hardware palette and individual palette colours
* Draw very fast tiles aligned with character lines in the screen.
* Change default screen video memory location (do hardware double buffering!)
* Synchronize with VSYNC
* Change Video Modes (0, 1, 2 and undocumented mode 3!)
* Measure performance of your game loop (and know how many free CPU cycles you still have for doing more things in your routines!)
* Scan the keyboard for pressed keys with the fastest keyboard scanning routine available!
* Disable and re-enable firmware operation at will
* Enable and disable lower and higher ROM access
* Optimize array storage using bitarrays (arrays of 1-bit, 2-bit and 4-bit elements available!)

=== Project creation, management and integrated build system ===
[[File:cpctelera_sprites_demo.gif|right|300px|CPCtelera sprite drawing demo]]
* Integrated set of compiling and generation tools ([[SDCC]] 3.4.3, iDSK 0.13, Hex2Bin 2.0, 2cdt)
* Easy and automated project creation and management
* Automatic generation of CDT and DSK files
* Program completely in C, completely in Assembler or mix both languages at will. You won’t even have to touch a line of the build system!
* Automatic generation of obj/ folder with all the intermediate object files (Never mess up your src/ directory!)
* Automatic generation of binaries, assembler output, symbol files and everything you need for debugging your program.
* Automatic identification of your project source files in C and ASM (.c and .s). Add new source files to your src/ directory and they will be automatically recognized an compiled!
* Automatic detection of src/ directory structure up to 1 level of subfolders without any modification!

=== Authoring tools and command line tools ===
* Create your musics with Arkos Tracker
* Create your sprites, tiles and maps with Retro Game Asset Studio 0.97! (And export them directly to CPCtelera C Array!)
* Convert any binary file to C Array and include it in your project with cpct_bin2c
* Convert a big sprite in a C Array into tiles of your desired size with cpct_sp2tiles!
* Convert old sprites in assembler CPCRSLib format into C Arrays with cpct_rgas2c!

Programming:Cross Development

2015-05-18T19:12:00Z

Ronaldo: Added CPCtelera as integrated build system (pretty similar to a toolchain)

= Introduction =

Cross development is a development method where you use another machine (the host) to develop programs for the CPC (target). This is interesting because you can make a big program which sourcecode does not even fit on the CPC ram.

The main drawback is that transferring the compiled code to the CPC can be quite difficult. But there are pretty good emulators which you can use for testing.

Once you have your binary file you have two choices depending on if the game will be for [[Datacorder|cassette]] or [[Disk drives|disc]].

*[[Atari|Atari ST]] was a common 16 bit computer actually used in cross development of games on CPC.

Of course nowadays cross development use far more powerful modern computers.

*[[ZX Spectrum]] was also a source of cross development...er... let's better say [[Speccy Port|Gross Development]] indeed.

= Tools needed for cross development =

== Integrated toolchains ==

An integrated cross-development toolchain is a time saver for development as it automates all necessary steps from a full set of source materials (source code, graphics, music, parameters in whatever format is practical for editing, etc) to one or several formats ready to run on the target machines. It also sometimes includes automatically launching or notifying an emulator or target device. See e.g. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Build_automation#Advantages Build Automation on wikipedia].

Such a design has several advantage:
* allows the usage of any text/graphic editor of modern platforms
* you can change anything in one or more source files and you get an updated build quickly without error-prone manual steps
* allows arbitrary transform or generation of intermediary files (code or data).
* makes easy to have specific builds (e.g. for automated tests like to check if a different compiler produces correct code, variant build for slightly different targets)
* since most material are text files or small independent files, it benefits hugely from modern tools for revision control like [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_%28software%29 Git] which makes sharing and merging code between developers much easier, increasing the time saved.

An ideal toolchain does not force its user into specific ways of doing things but is flexible enough to let the user adjust for whatever specific needs (use different languages, compilers, linkers, etc). Along with a properly designed and structured source tree, this makes projects less dependent on specific tools used to build them, and be more resilient to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_rot bit rot] due to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_rot#Environment_change software build environment change].

Please note that an integrated toolchain has little to do with anything visible on-screen. A good toolchain can be triggered by most flexible enough graphical environments and generally produces a text log of the work done. Nevertheless, the concept of toolchains is more natural to Linux/Unix way of thinking/doing things, and those environments are already full of reusable and combinable tools that ease the creation and maintenance of a toolchain. Windows users can generally use tools developed for Unix through the cygwin software adaptation layer but running a Linux distribution in a virtual machine may be more practical.

There are some attempts at creating toolchains targeting the CPC:

* 2015-05-11 '''[[CPCtelera]]''' integrates an out-of-the-box preconfigured build system, along with a game development library and tools. It is also multiplatform, working on Linux, OSX and Windows.
* Not an integrated toolchain, but a collection of tools that can be strung together to make one. Currently active (as of end of 2012): on [http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/off-topic/cpc-sdk-for-linuxunix/ CPC SDK for Linux/Unix] PlukoMandy mentions http://code.google.com/p/cpcsdk
* 2012-11-12 [http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/programming/recommended-linux-cross-dev-tool-chain/ Recommended Linux cross-dev tool chain?] mentions a makefile-based toolchain targeting dsk images or tapes
* 2011-11-18 [https://github.com/cpcitor/cpc-dev-tool-chain cpc-dev-tool-chain] an embryo of an integrated C or ASM development toolchain for the Amstrad CPC platform (or emulator). Designed for quick start on Linux (or similar) systems : get a copy, run "make" and get a DSK ready to run into the emulator. It even downloads and compiles tools (the cross-compiler, iDSK) if needed.
* 2009-06-16 [http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/emulators/my-new-cross-development-kit/new/#new My new cross-development kit] explain what is basically a toolchain but link is broken as of 2013-01-08

* pluma
* gedit

=== Emulators ===
* [[Arnold (Emulator)|Arnold]]
* [[Caprice]] [http://sourceforge.net/projects/caprice32/]
* [[cpcemu]] [http://www.cpc-emu.org/]
* [[xcpc]] [http://xcpc.sourceforge.net/]

=== Tape management ===

* [[samp2]] [http://www.cepece.info/amstrad/download/samp2.zip]
* [[UberCassette]] [http://www.retroreview.com/iang/UberCassette/]

=== Toolkits ===
* [[CPCSDK]] toolkit which contains useful tools for cross-development under Linux - [http://code.google.com/p/cpcsdk/]

=== Useful scripts ===
==== Suppress header information of a file ====
<pre>
cat file_with_header | tail -c+129 > file_without_header
</pre>

=== Needed Tools ===
These tools have to not require a lot of requirement and most of them must work in command line without GUI. This will allow
to use them with Makefile scripts. They have to be fast too, it will be disappointing to wait more when doing CrossDev than when doing code on a real CPC.
A good thing (like most of CPCTools) is to have a portable code which compile on most platforms.

* a good emulator which can be integrated in other tools. (Ramlaid first try to change Caprice is a good start)
* an integration of Ramlaid's tools with Nautilus
* ameliorations of Caprice in order to have similar functionalities than WinApe (disasm, asm, ...)
* debug the libdsk which seems to work very bad on actual computers (writting fail a lot)
* a lot of macros, or libraries for SJASMPlus shared by people in order to share code
* share a generic Makefile able to be use for build CPC project
* a lot of little command line utilities (could be add to CPCTools ?) really well done :
** graphics tools :
*** convert images from PC to CPC, or CPC to PC (cf. tools based on ImageMagick or GD)
*** equivalent of Anoine's FontCatcher
** 2 tools which work with BASIC :
*** one for create BASIC AMSDOS files from ASCII or UTF-8 text files
*** one for create ASCII or UTF-8 text files from BASIC AMSDOS files
*** (this can already be done with manageDSK for files inside a DSK, maybe extract the code from there)
** data manipulation tools :
*** ability to arrange data files for example modify bytes order in a picture file by using Gray code capabilities for changing line with modifying 1 bit

== Windows ==

=== Cross Assemblers ===

*[[Tasm|tasm]]
*[[Pasmo|Pasmo]]
*[[ZMac|ZMac]]
*[http://little-bat.de/prog/ zasm]
*[[WinApe|WinApe]]'s built in assembler

=== Cross compilers (C) ===

For tutorial, see http://www.cpcmania.com/Docs/Programming/Programming.htm by Mochilote

* [[Z88DK]]
* [[SDCC]], notably [[SDCC and CPC]] had hints and practical examples about the principles of writing in C for CPC.
* [[PhrozenC]]

=== Graphics ===

*[[AMSprite|AMSprite]] - Sprite/Loading Screen Editor and graphics conversion tools

=== Sound ===

*[[WYZTracker|WYZTracker]] - Music tracker / Sound effects editor
*[[Vortex Tracker]]

== Testing on a real CPC ==

=== For cassette ===

* 2CDT to add the files to a Cassette Image File (CDT)
* Tape2WAV to convert the Cassette Image file (CDT) into a WAV file.
* Then you can run the program on the emulator the same way as you would run it on a real CPC, or
* Connect your CPC (CPC664 and CPC6128 have a cassette input) to the Line-Out output of your PC soundcard
* On the CPC type:

|TAPE:RUN"

* Start your WAV player
* Set the volume to maximum
* play the WAV file
* Wait for the program to load...

=== For disc ===

* Use CPCFS or CPCXFS to put the binary files into a Disk Image file (DSK)
* Then you can run the program on the emulator the same way as you would run it on a real CPC

If your CPC has a 3.5" disc drive then the easiest method is to transfer the DSK to a 3.5" disc using the PC.

- Then use CPCDiskXP to write the DSK to a 3.5" disc drive - Put the disc into your CPC's 3.5" disc drive and type - |B: RUN "<gamename>

== Snapshots ==

The fastest way of testing your code on an emulator is by creating a snapshot. Use [[CPCSnapshot]] to insert your assembled code into a snapshot file. Then just load the snapshot file into the emulator. Windows users may also try WinAPE's integrated assembler which assembles the code directly into the emulated CPC's memory.

'''''CPCtelera''': Astonishing fast Amstrad CPC game engine''

[[File:cpctelera_logo.jpg|right|450px|CPCtelera Logo]]

'''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/ CPCtelera]''' is a multiplatform framework for '''''developing games''''' and multimedia software for Amstrad CPC. '''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/ CPCtelera]''' runs either on ''Linux, OSX and Windows (with cygwin)'' and makes it easier to start developing games in '''C''' or assembly languages for Amstrad CPC.

'''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/ CPCtelera]''' is also thoroughly documented, has a complete reference manual and the code is comented in depth.

== Starting with CPCtelera ==

* Download latest release from '''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/ CPCtelera main project page]'''.

* Follow '''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/files/readme-txt.html#Installing_CPCtelera install instructions]'''

* Start programming and consult the '''[http://lronaldo.github.io/cpctelera/files/readme-txt.html Reference Manual]''' for API details.

If you wanted, you can also get latest under-development versions from [https://github.com/lronaldo/cpctelera its Github].

== Features ==

=== Low-level programming API functionalities ===
[[File:cpctelera_working_fade.png|right|450px|Coding an example with CPCtelera]]
* Draw normal and masked sprites
* Draw solid colour boxes and speed up sprite trail erasing!
* Reproduce audio and sound effects
* Create fade-in / fade-out effects with your sound FX and music!
* Mix-up sound effects with music, using the 3 audio channels for both at the same time!
* Draw strings and characters using ROM characters without using firmware.
* Change the complete hardware palette and individual palette colours
* Draw very fast tiles aligned with character lines in the screen.
* Change default screen video memory location (do hardware double buffering!)
* Synchronize with VSYNC
* Change Video Modes (0, 1, 2 and undocumented mode 3!)
* Measure performance of your game loop (and know how many free CPU cycles you still have for doing more things in your routines!)
* Scan the keyboard for pressed keys with the fastest keyboard scanning routine available!
* Disable and re-enable firmware operation at will
* Enable and disable lower and higher ROM access
* Optimize array storage using bitarrays (arrays of 1-bit, 2-bit and 4-bit elements available!)

=== Project creation, management and integrated build system ===

* Integrated set of compiling and generation tools (SDCC 3.4.3, iDSK 0.13, Hex2Bin 2.0, 2cdt)
* Easy and automated project creation and management
* Automatic generation of CDT and DSK files
* Program completely in C, completely in Assembler or mix both languages at will. You won’t even have to touch a line of the build system!
* Automatic generation of obj/ folder with all the intermediate object files (Never mess up your src/ directory!)
* Automatic generation of binaries, assembler output, symbol files and everything you need for debugging your program.
* Automatic identification of your project source files in C and ASM (.c and .s). Add new source files to your src/ directory and they will be automatically recognized an compiled!
* Automatic detection of src/ directory structure up to 1 level of subfolders without any modification!

=== Authoring tools and command line tools ===
* Create your musics with Arkos Tracker
* Create your sprites, tiles and maps with Retro Game Asset Studio 0.97! (And export them directly to CPCtelera C Array!)
* Convert any binary file to C Array and include it in your project with cpct_bin2c
* Convert a big sprite in a C Array into tiles of your desired size with cpct_sp2tiles!
* Convert old sprites in assembler CPCRSLib format into C Arrays with cpct_rgas2c!
