This package converts a 320x200 with 16 grays ILBM to a C64 koala picture.


The way you go about this is described below:

1- make sure the iff picture is 320x200 (if not, use DPAINT or ADPRO)
2- make sure the iff picture has 16 grays (if not, use ADPRO)
3- make sure the grays are in the following order : $000 $111 $222 $333
   $444 $555 $666 $777 $888 $999 $aaa $bbb $ccc $ddd $eee $fff (if not,
   use DPAINT)
4- use ilbmtoraw to convert the iff to a raw-format picture
   example : ilbmtoraw picture
   a file called 'picture.lo.320x200x4' should be created, this is the raw-
   format file.
5- use raw2koala to convert the raw-format picture into a C64 koala picture.

   There are 2 ways in which raw2koala can convert the raw-picture:

   The hyper conversion method uses a pattern-dithering method to construct
   the missing grays on the C64, this method is somewhat slower but leaves
   you with a large amount of grays.

   example hyper-mode : raw2koala picture.lo.320x200x4,koalapic,2


   The simple conversion method uses no dithering of any kind, this method
   is somewhat faster, but leaves you with a small amount of grays and less
   detail.

   example simple-mode : raw2koala picture.lo.320x200x4,koalapic,1




That's all folks...
