LBM conversion
 

I have try to add new pictures (.lbm format) but it doesn't work in the oob editor (invalid format) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

I use "Gimp 2" to made 160x80 jpg grey scale pictures and convert to deluxe paint lbm format with "36-image converter"

any ideas ?

That's what I tried too, and encountered the same problem. I think the part of the process that's missing is either conversion of all colors to the SPMBT palette (not sure how to do that using GIMP), or that the 36-image converter app doesn't properly convert the file.

Don's full explanation of how to do this using Paint Shop Pro can be found here:

I don't want to spoil your day, but are you sure that GIMP will save to .lbm format?
I just tried and couldn't find it in the format list.
Or maybe you have something separate for the conversion? That would be interesting.

There's a freeware app called the "36-Image Converter," which Urban has mentioned, and which I have also attempted to use. The GIMP will not save to lbm, but the 36IC says it will convert to that format.

I tried with GIMP but it didn't work - however Paint Shop Pro worked just fine.

Urban, if you're unable to get your hands on Paint Shop Pro send the pictures to me and I could edit/save the lbm's for you. I have some experince with that stuff.

PM me if you need my email.
