Nw2png2.0

[Cubical]

I created a patched version of this. The fixed Jar and source are in zip below. If anyone has problems with it I'll work on getting it fixed.

i don't see any source?

$ ls -alp
total 96
.classpath
.project
.settings/
NW2PNG2.1.jar
bin/
src/

also, could you explain what you did to "patch" the issue where FILENAMECACHE.txt no longer exists?

[Cubical]

Dusty already told me I just forgot to edit my post. I thought I had included. I've since reformatted my computer and lost the changes. I could easily redo it but I'm kinda lazy and don't really want to because it works as it currently is. If anyone wants to fix it all i did was make it generate a new FILENAMECACHE.txt in the ./Graal directory that would generate when it opened.

recreated your changes by using JDGUI and adapting your code to Oracle Java instead of openJDK, which might not work for most people (didn't work for me)

src is available at github, also created a pullrequest to dusty's repo to maintain a centralized place for the code.

Neither of your patches work for me. Cubical's opens, but the process halts at "Generating..." while Deas' java file refuses to open altogether.

Edit: This "Generating..." hang is now happening with Dusty's submissions too.

Deas version won't run for me either. I suspect it has something to do with the manifest because it throws this error message when I run it though the terminal:

no main manifest attribute, in NW2PNG2.1.jar

Edit: The problem was because the manifest doesn't indicate what the main class is and can be easily fixed by adding the text below to the manifest file:

Class-Path: .
Main-Class: src.org.graalcenter.nw2png.GraphicalNW2PNG

See, when I open the manifest file, those lines are already there.

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Class-Path: .
Main-Class: src.org.graalcenter.nw2png.GraphicalNW2PNG

This is what I get from my console.

Which is exactly the same, haha.

They aren't in Deas version or at least not for me.

That's odd. I'm defo using Deas' version too. I tried deleting the file and adding it to the jar again, but still no luck. It always returns that error.

[Deas_Voice]

ok, lets try that again, here's a new jarfile exported from the patch i made

A bit late on this thread, but this tool is very useful.

It is working well for me, with the exception of not being able to load custom images made as tiles (added by addtiledef2 in gs1). Says it "couldn't load the file <filename>" etc...

Using DEAS latest version attached ^

Is there a directory I need to store these images in within the graal folder? They are all currently located in my graal/levels/images/download folder...

//edit copied to the following directories: graal/levels/images

and now I only get the error for:

NPC Code:

---

[20:47:01]: Generating...

[20:47:01]: Creating new FILENAMECACHE.txt file in local directory CUsers\Bradley\Graal

[20:47:01]: Created new FILENAMECACHE.txt file in local directory

---

and no activity afterwards...

error log: Parsing level: toran_00-00.nw

As far as Deas' version goes his change was mostly to fix the fact that Graal no longer uses Filenamecache.

However if you want to try my version out, you can still force filenamecache via deleting filenamecache.txt from your Graal folder and then running GraalEditor.exe.

[Torankusu]

I was able to generate images (did not include added tiledefs for some reason..) earlier no problem, even for the entire gmap, but the only thing I have done differently is store the images in a different directory (graal/levels/images instead of graal/levels/images/downloads) and I get errors with both versions.

I removed the images from both of the previously listed directories, and it is now able to generate a .png of the level, but does not include tiledefs, and gives me an error that it cannot LOAD the images when it generates the .png from my level...

SO, Maybe I am overlooking something, but what directory in my graal folder do I need to ensure I have the images for the tiles I am using (that the nw2png cannot find...)

I am assuming this is the source of my problems ^ ^ ?

[scriptless]

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but is anyone by chance interested in a Graal to PNG program as well? If so I can probably make something for it. Tho I havent gotten to loading NPC's just tile data. Alternatively I could do Graal to nw. I dont have any zelda format to test tho.

[Draenin]

Really wish this worked for terrain too, but it will probably never happen. :[
