You can type in the x/y coordinates for the logo, scroll text, etc, and you can load custom logos and fonts. [ code ........... zorke ] [ BMP2RAW ........ flyke ] *** IMPORTANT *** When you use a bitmap font, the order of the letters must be : + One line - if you have a multi-char lined font like " abcdefghij " " klmnopqrst ", you must convert the font so it is like this : " abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz ". + In ascending hex value order from 0x20 so : 0x20, 0x21, 0x22, 0x23..... or in ASCII : " !"#$%&'" this can go on as long as you like, even until 0xFFh. + should be 8x8 or 16x16. in theory, any size is ok, but it will look _HORRIBLE_ [ Instructions ] Step 1 : Create a 256-color BMP file. 24-bit or 16-color BMPs will not work Use a paint package (such as MS-Paint) to load your logo/font and just save as 256 color bitmap. Do this to all your fonts and your logos which you want to use in the cracktro. Step 2 : Drag and drop the bmp onto "256BMP2RAW.exe". You should see a console window pop up and convert the stuff into a .pallete and .picture file. In Windows Vista and 7, the files will be dropped into the directory containing the program. However, if you're running XP, you will need to go to C:\documents and settings\<username_here>\ and the files should be called <bmpname>.picture and <bmpname>.pallete. Step 3 : Load the main program "cngen.exe" and just select the options in the tick-boxes which you want in the cracktro. If you have selected "Logo", you will need to load the pallete and the picture file for it. Page Font is for the page text, and Scroll Font is for the scroller. Step 4 : Once you have loaded the right stuff into the program, Enter in the right X and Y positions for the related fields. Remember that the screen is 640x480 so if your logo is.. say 100 px high, entering the Y position as 600 will crash the cracktro (600+100)=700 = off the screen Step 5 : If you have selected the scroller/page text options, please enter the text in to the edit boxes. Step 6 : PRESS MAKE! don't exit because it may take some trying to get the coordinates just right. That's all now :) have fun with the program! /zke.nrv
