tga2lmp

Command line utility that converts TGA files to Quake LMP format in a folder.

Source + .exe: http://quake-1.com/docs/utils/tga2lmp.zip

Probably no one is interested in this I'm not either. Heheh. 2nd mini utility completed in a few hours, the utility I want is 3 or 4 utilities out.

The one that will let me sporadically make textures without converting anything to anything all the overhead happens automatically.

/ Note: It is a moderate pain in the arse to change C99 code so that Visual Studio likes it. C99 lets you do some funny things like make fixed arrays in functions with a variable size and other little things that make coding less of a hassle.

Nice! But were that the palette not hard-coded.

Just use my CB pack for C99 the minimal version aint that big anyway hehe.
Saves porting it to

Or use C++ - you can restrict yourself to the C-like subset of it.

can probably also use stlport for msvc missing subsets weirdly enough microsoft states that they wont expand a lot on c99 instead they focus on the upcomming c++11.

I dealt with the differences prior to starting the thread. Had to malloc/free a few times, rewrite some stuff here and there.

C99 even Clang/LLVM vs. GCC with the C99 flag aren't even quite the same.

Clangs c++ subset is lacking a few things though improving.
Gcc has had C99 since the initial 4 release 4.1 i think. Msvc from v 6 could use it with stlport, i think they implemented some of it natively with msvc2003.
Its mildly annoying to port indeed but things will be much worse when c++11 makes it in since it will be abi incompatible with all prior releases (shudder).

Again, no one in their right mind should be interested in this, but this utility library has support for exporting tga, mip, lmp and for writing WAD2, WAD3, PAK:

http://quake-1.com/docs/utils/writetga.zip

This is the source for a command line utility. As strange as it sounds, I'm not interested in command line utilities, but I can test stuff without worrying about overhead and write clean and user-friendly code.

But the underlying code can generate a pak or wad file in ridiculously easy way. The code goes like this: PakFile_Build_Start (blah) ... PakFile_Build_Add_File (blah) ... PakFile_Build_Finish (blah).
