GP32 Image Conversion

[Tsyayin]

Im kinda confused.

I cant find an image converter for gp32 that works...

The one by Edorul just makes a 1 dimension array for everything (.h, .c, etc.), but the only files that work are 2D arrays, and i dont know how to write a .gpg loader because im stupid.

I know how to use GpBitBlt() and everything, but i cant convert my OWN image files to use. I just get a bunch of wierd scribbles.

Any help? does anyone know where the official gp32 converter is?

1 dimensional arrays are just fine for images. An image which is 64 x 64 would be in an array like this:
unsigned char image[4096] = {data};
like that because 64 * 64 = 4096, atleast thats the case if its in 8-bit mode and therefore only uses 1 byte per pixel. On the other hand, if you're in 16 bit mode, each pixel would be 2 bytes long, so it would be
unsigned char image[8192] = {data}; instead, because there's twice as many bytes needed.

you can find the official utlity by gamepark here, but if ou just want to convert sounds and pictures use edoruls'one

thanks!
finally figured out what i was doing wrong.
But one more question:
How would you fix the pallete for the pix? When it displays them on gp32, it's kind of messed up. I am using 8 bit pix though.

or how can you set 16-bit graphics mode and use it?

oh, nevermind, i was doing 24 bit instead of 16, thanks a lot!
i needed to use photoshop and i was using paint (you cant save 16 bit in paint)

GP32Converter from edorul convert 24 bits bmp to 16 bits bmp
