Drawing Pictures for Axe
« on: July 13, 2011, 11:24:11 am »
Can anyone Help me?
I try to draw pictures in this funny code [0011001ABC1054332324...] But don't know how.
I always changed something in the code, and wondered about the chacture. but I have no idea how to draw correctly in this code.
For example, how to draw this x-Wing?
(I mean in a 12x8-picture, or something like this.

Easy to explain, hard to do ;D
The funny code is hexadecimal, and supports only black and white; 0 and 1.
First, put your image in binary. Every pixel is changed into a number (1 if black, 0 if white).
Then, translate Binary to Hexadecimal. When you have finished reading it, re-read the first sentence.

If you only make a 8x8 sprite, it is easier to use AxePaint.

Sorry if I answer with something that seems unrelated, English is not my primary language and I might not have understood well. Sorry if I make English mistakes too.

Well, with your numbers, make a multiple of eight lenght by adding zeros (I'm French, so even me doesn't understand what I just said). I mean, If you have 111, do 00000111. If you have 1010010001, do 0000001010010001.
Then, change every pack of four by its hexadecimal equivalent. 0001 becomes 1; 0010 becomes 2; 1000 becomes 8, 1010 becomes A, etc. So 0110010010001101 becomes 648D

EDIT: ???I never used the word "bit" or "byte" in my post :o
And the X-Wing would be too large for the TI I think

Hopefully I'm not repeating a lot.
So, first pad the sprite to a width that's a multiple of 8 if necessary.
Then convert the picture to binary; black is 1, white is 0.
Then, as Hayleia said, you need to put that in hexadecimal, four bits at a time.
If you want a chart, here it is. I do hope you figure out why it's like this, though :)
BinaryHexadecimal
00000
00011
00102
00113
01004
01015
01106
01117
10008
10019
1010A
1011B
1100C
1101D
1110E
1111F
(Maybe I should have done that table horizontally...)

Maybe you repeated what I said, but at least, I understand what you said, while I'm not sure that what I wrote makes any sense.

That works too. :) You forgot 0, though :P

Is there a "Image to Hex Converter" somewhere (for the TI-83+ family) ? To put an image in hex in an appvar for example (I'm talking about 96x64 images) (because I want to avoid the [Pic0]→GDB1 thing and make [thecode]→GDB1).

SourceCoder can convert image files (such as bmp) to hex.

I tried it, it doesn't seem to work :( it gives me only FFs.
I think I'll make it with [Pic0].
Thanks anyway.

Thank you for the help, but there is a problem with this one: it creates an hex code for any image so it first edits the image so it can fit in the calculator, but even if the image was perfect, it edits it, so there are some precisions of the image that are killed.
