Hi everyone,
After discovering 3 of our Atari Lynx machines at my parents place recently, I decided to give Lynx programming a go, and I've been working through the excellent series at https://atarilynxdeveloper.wordpress.com/series/atarilynxprogrammingtutorial/
I've set up using Ubuntu instead of Windows (I was having all sorts of problems getting started under Windows) and so I've found the modified source for sprpck here http://atariage.com/forums/topic/166552-lynx-sprite-packing-tool/?p=2080209 and got that compiling under Ubuntu.
I've got my Makefile set up to try and compile the bmp file, but I'm getting a couple of issues.
First is complaining about RLE-bitmaps not being supported. I've tried saving out of several different programs, and I managed to save out of one (I can't even remember which one now), which led to the second problem.
When I use the BMP that doesn't complain about RLE, I get the error :
make: *** [robot.o] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
So after banging my head for several hours I'm caving in and asking for help.
1. What programs do you use to save out a bitmap files compatible with sprpck?
2. Any ideas why I would be getting this Segmentation fault?
Thanks for the help.
