Rybags Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 That soccer pic is interesting... looks to use 3 GTIA mode variants in the one line... normal, luma, then the paletted GR.15-like mode.

Indeed, especially looking at some details. We see that it always takes the creative view of an artist to do special things with the capabilities. Weird I didn't yet look at this picture good enough.

Rybags Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Nice how they've actually used the Gr. 15 type mode - in the one or two other demos they just had squiggly lines or something else. The PMGs are also used to effect - you can work out what's what by going into the Monitor, then just C D407 00 to make them (mostly) disappear.

matosimi Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 TEBE, pls. can you implement modification to function 'select pattern' where will be possible to move selection by pixels (not by chars) ???

Sometimes is need to move selection by 1 pixel. Yes, that would be a good addition during the selection, currently it is only the Y axis by pixel. For anyone who does not use G2F regularly and are interested, after the range is set, the function implemented in the Move XY option does then give you the ability to choose the x & y move by pixel and you can also select which ellements the move function affects: the pmgs, the bitmap, the colours.

Kaz atarionline.pl Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 For anyone who does not use G2F regularly and are interested, after the range is set, the function implemented in the Move XY option "MoveXY" doesn't exist, we've got "Move, Copy, Paste" option I would prefer Tebe to increase the main window size... running G2F on a 1280x1024 or higher monitor resolution is not fun... I found solution for myself. I'm using "SF Zoom" small application (freeware) to magnify part of G2F screen. Useful.

Tezz Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Colour use in hi-res is restricted in standard modes, it's possible with skill and effort to produce something impressive in hi-res however (look at the g2f archive for some examples) The C64 picture is very good. I should add. Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/34916-graph2fnt/page/27/#findComment-1629881 Share on other sites More sharing options...
emkay Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 (edited) My head is read , my feets are big and I cannot say that bad words I feel about this. Today I wanted to do another GTIA test picture. Since Tebe wanted to make it impossible to use Player Missile graphics when using "gr.9" , I thought, OK lets trick it out as with older versions. After x-times of converting up and down, i got G2F to load the gr.9 pic in hires and to switch the pic to gr. 9 resolution. Everything was fine until I started to save the stuff... Everytime it saved a BMP.... try to use XEX it saves a "pic.xex.bmp" same with "pic.g2f.bmp".... WHY....really...WHY not simply use the tool as it is? Why do changes that makes everything worse. Why not simply leaving PM on when using gr. 9? Why put this unuseful VBXE Enhancement in, but the simple GTIA features cut even more out? A simple picture like below takes ages in G2F and it is nothing like the standard GTIA features... Gr 10 is missing, Gr. 11 is missing correct PM overlay is missing ... and so on.... But this dumb and unusefull VBXE extension is build in. With the new version you couldn't even create this. I wonder whether this is some intentional threat of people who want to make something on the Atari.... Tebe, please finish the GTIA features in G2F.....

Tezz Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 (edited) MK: Yes there are some GTIA features and modes as yet unavailable in G2F. It's far better however to discuss and describe the things you'd like to see added and implemented into G2F here in this thread in detail rather than venting in frustration. Tebe has been open to suggestions and has implemented a lot of features requested in the past. Please remember that Tebe creates G2F in his own time for free for everyone to use. I don't think that previous post will be apreciated for it's manner. I would like to see further GTIA features for sure but I'm happpy to see the addition of VBXE too.

I don't think that previous post will be apreciated for it's manner. Please save me from statements like this. You should stick a needle into a full balloon instead.. I know about the big work around such tools. And I stated those missing features to tebe. Just look how old this thread already is. What makes me nervous is the fact that every tool seems to be intentional limited (also RMT). There is no sense about turning off the PMs when using GTIA modes, for example. Well, just leaving them on, would have even saved time for development on the tool. Everyone is talking about "how good the A8 is" but when it comes to prove it, everything turns. Well, we could have real 256 colour pictures since decades and with G2F it could have been proven 1000 times already. But what happens? Just have a look at the picture below. The upper one is what you get in G2F. The lower one is what you see on the real thing.. Tell me, what prevents G2F from leaving the PMs on when drawing in gr 9 , 10, 11 ? Simply NOT turning it off would have saved time (again) and much more was possible already. In fact real 256 colour pictures, without flicker and without interlace.... but the real necessary is turned off, just for not giving the possibility in the tool....

Tezz Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I don't know why this hasn't been implemented MK? There must be a reason why Tebe has not made the addition if you've been in touch about it in the past, or maybe it wasn't made clear enough? I don't think that the limitations that are present in the tools are intentional, they are just either incomplete at the stage they are at or the author is not too interested in making the additions at all I suppose.
