On a tricolor ...
Many have probably already seen the tricolor image. General
information about the technology of their creation was
described in ZX-Format'e # 6. It is true there has been given no
very precise information on the last stage
a unit suitable for use
in Xcolor'e. I was going to fix this nedostok (not all climb
into the bowels of the program to see how it works). Let's
start from the beginning. You are the proud owner of a heap of
cool pictures who do you think would be nice to
looked in the tricolor on SPECCY. What do you
need to do is to cut them. In the literature
(See the ZX-Format) is a method of using a heap of programs
(for PC). My method is somewhat shorter, since the cutting is
only one program on the PC and the means available to SPECCY.
So, take a Photoshop v 3.0 (I use
Russian version). Why is it, the reader will ask. Because of
all that has been described in Format'e, I have not had and had
to dispense materials at hand. Than I like the third version
(admittedly, I and other not seen), so it is that you can read
/ write image files of all the ubiquitous formats, as well as
Amizhnye IFF'y and HAM'y. So, take Photoshop and
ship the image is resized. After
This includes a tool "layer" if he
not included (right click / show
layer). Change the picture type to RGB (the menu
APPEARANCE / RGB). Turn on the bookmark channel
LAYER tool. You have a tool window
should be four small images (one general and three on the
channels). Shelkaem by triangles below the button to minimize
the tool and select SPLIT LAYERS. After that we have three
windows we need picture. But to use on SPECCY
they do not yet fit, they need to surpass single-bit format. We
climb back into the View menu, turn on the single-bit format
(top row). Attention! Format changes only the current image.
Choose options konvertsii and the result written to the disk
format. BMP or PCX (Despite what you will use to
SPECCY). We perform these operations for all
windows, which broke up our image.
As a result, you should have three files
in three colors (to determine where a color
may be the last letter of the filename).
After that, transfer the case on Spectrum.
After receiving the standard Spectrum screens
they should merge to form red-green-blue, but screens must be
no attributes, then the unit can compress, but you can not.
Xcolor understand it correctly (for compressed blocks
extension must be Y, and for neskompressirovanyh - C). If the
card NCA does not look exactly as you want (the dark Zamesto
bright colors), then invert block. Here like and all I wanted
to say about it. Who is not clear or who have their own way -
write.
