New Utility: AGI to SCI picture converter

[Zero]

Ok Chirs is right.

The latest release, version 1.1.0b, includes a standalone executable, and it's source code (QBasic), as requested. The download is about 40kb. Get it from here.

PS - In-house testing is continuing.
PPS - Expect a full release in about a month.

Cool thanks for porting it to QBasic now I can actually try it. I think I will try it with a pic from V.

[Chris Cromer]

Well it works somewhat. The V pic that I tried came out about halfway correct the other half was distorted and took SCI Studio a long time to load. Then I tried a simpler pic from V and all I got was a white screen and black at the bottom(resembled a AGI game running.) and nothing else.

The QB version isn't the main program, so I don't think I'll be debugging it. Did the V screens involve the PLOT commands? I'm still working on those. Once they're done to my satisfaction, I'll start testing on "wild" screens, rather than the "tame" test cases I've constructed.

PS - Are the pics you tested in the V demo?
PPS - If so, which numbers are they?

[Chris Cromer]

Only one of the screens I tried is in the released version of V it is picture number 2. The other one is a replacement picture for the intro.

I just found "py2exe", a neat little Python compiler, so I've released a new package here. The "Win32 binary distribution" includes this new executable, plus a .dll file required to run it.

PS - This will, hopefully, mean fewer bugs for me to sort through.
PPS - And faster releases for all of you.
