barnsey123 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Hi Guys, is there a windows binary for RasterConverter anywhere or can someone offer me some tips on how to compile it on Win7? I've downloaded the source but is there a recommended compiler? Specifically, I'm looking to convert some PNG files and RC looks like the nuts. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrathchild Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Here's the folder with the binary I've been using, its quite old now but I'm not sure of further updates? Would love to get hold of them if so. RastaConverterBeta7.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfollett Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 There's also this if you want a friendlier front end. Although I've had some issues with it resolving hard drive paths, so I just put any pics I want to convert into the same folder as the program: http://www.nightfallcrew.com/15/07/2012/atari-8-bit-tools-rastaconverter-beta-4-gui-v0-0-1-3/ Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAM Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Is there anywhere on the internet that displays the pictures like the G2F website? It'd be nice to browse through them as a gallery instead of having to hunt through a forum to find them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a page with my conversions (LINK) but AFAIK you can find the best images only in that thread: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/200118-images-generated-by-rastaconverter/?hl=%20rastaconverter%20%20images Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be nice to browse through them as a gallery instead of having to hunt through a forum to find them! This is an SDX 16MB atr with some of the RasterView images about 285 files driven with batch files for viewing files. CD VIEW DIR *.BAT to run a batch file you need a minus sign in front of the filename PRESS ENTER KEY TO ADVANCE TO NEXT Rasterview picture. When batch file is complete do the next batch file (Total of 26 batch files for the alphabet A-Z) Also included is a folder of RMT files with RMTplayer. And also a folder of Pic files viewed with a modified basic file and COMPILED with ABC compiler. SDX driven file so type KOALA /AZ for the complete directory of pictures or KOALA /BD for just the file names from B through D (source file included).. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnieg Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Downloaded the posted binary to my laptop running Xubunu 14.04 and wine seems to handle it well, in fact older Windows programs that are self contained i.e have required dlls with them seem to work well in general - I run Virtual Aquarius under Wine and it works better than on Windows 7 wine RastaConverter.exe 1965009_10152018434224007_130670511_n.jpg raster.png is the command I ran from the bash shell to test Barnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have much experience with that stuff, but had no trouble with an initial test using your front end. Thanks for posting it!

I'd love to take credit for the front end, but it's not mine, I just remembered finding it in another thread and passed on the link. Too bad he didn't add the ability to build the xex.
