+Stephen Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 ivop - it looks like you did not use dithering on these images. Did you do any pre-processing? Can you please share the settings you used when converting these images? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivop Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) Very nice row of images. Showing the huge variations of available colours. Thanks! I did try to use different images with different palettes. Could have done all the grayish and greenish elves of Wesnoth, but that would have been boring Given the extremly good output, that's not a hard job for Google Image Search :-) http://www.deviantart.com/art/Preparing-to-Slay-Undead-Pathfinder-452979412 Good idea to use Image Search. That's indeed the original image Edited February 2, 2017 by ivop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivop Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) ivop - it looks like you did not use dithering on these images. Did you do any pre-processing? Can you please share the settings you used when converting these images? You are right, I did not use any dithering. With uniform backgrounds and dithering of the foreground you get blocks at the edges of your subject very quickly and they don't go away after a few billion iterations. Here's the original Delfador: I selected this one because our Atari is good at purples. I made a cut-out with a 4:3 aspect ratio and resized it to 320x240 and increased the colour saturation extensively: Command line: (I used a similar command line for all the other images) rastaconv /i=delf.png /pal=Palettes/laoo.act \ /dither=none /filter=box /o=output.png \ /s=10000 /threads=8 /init=smart \ /save=1000000 I tried using dithering with the following details image: The idea was that rastaconv would not extend blocks of colour and underlays beyond the silhouette, but that failed. edit: I ran these conversions on a 3.5GHz octa-core CPU overnight.

AtariNerd Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Tried the no-dither option, inspired by others results and having not tried to create an image for awhile. Rasta runs fine on my configuration of Windows (10), but when I try to use the generator, either through the GUI front-end or through the build file in the generator folder (pasting all needed files), all I get are exception errors or "output,xex" not found. Oh, well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariNerd Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 It's been a few years, so it wouldn't surprise me. I just basically copied everything labeled "output" and pasted it in there. Generator - Copy.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmenit Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 It's been a few years, so it wouldn't surprise me. I just basically copied everything labeled "output" and pasted it in there. The archive is missing screen data (output.png.mic) and MADS assembler. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariNerd Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Thanks Ilmenit, I was missing the MADS library entirely in the variant I had, that was posted recently in the thread and I had to import it from an earlier, official copy. It's working well, now. Atarinerd_Elf_Dragon.xex 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
