I happen to maintain it, but I've never used it...
I know it has been used to generate tiles for several programs, but I don't remember which ones |

I'll just read every line of the readme this time, instead of skimming through it. Bad habit from reading exciting sword fights/battles in my favorite 'fantasy' books. Anyone ever read the "Lost Realms" series(starring Drizzt DoUrden) by R. A. Salvatore? Great series!

Tttiler is a very nice program I use it whenever I have to split a large image up into smaller tiles. You basically use it from the command line like this.
tttiler -[options: h (horizontal organization top down) v (vertical organization top down left right) ht (h option with test program) vt (v option with test program)] infile.bin width_of_image height_of_image width_of_tile height_of_tile entries outfile.bin or .txt Go to the command prompt, change your dir to the dir with tttiler in it and just type in tttiler and it'll show you the same thing in more detail. It'll split the data into it's respective blocks, with comments in front of the tiles to let you know which is which, and generates a test program to display the image. It would work really well for a tileset for a game, if the tiles are the same size each, because you can keep track of them very easily this way. I use it for full screen images as well, because it generates easy to use data. Hope this helps. |
