There is a very nice tool to convert .TGA graphics into binary files
that can be included (by INCBIN) to your programs. It's name is
UGPConv. I programmed it to convert .TGA files to a special format
(that I named UGP), that can easyly be displayed by the UGP library:
INCLUDE "uglib.h"
XDEF _main
XDEF _comment
_main: lea UGP_Picture(PC),a0
jsr ugplib::AutoDisp ; display this picture centered
; and wait for keypress afterwards
rts
_comment: dc.b "...",0
UGP_Picture: INCBIN "MyPict.UGP"
END
The conversion and display routines support 1, 2 and 3 plane
graphics, compression, animations... All these information are
stored within a short header in the picture, that's why the
display is so easy.
If you're interested in UGPConv, I will send it to you. I wasn't
able to release UGPConv 2 yet.
