`16.Nov.2023` Nelson Santos (Mail)	Game development: IFF/ILBM exporter for Aseprite Aseprite is an image editor that is primarily intended for drawing and animating pixel graphics for games. However, as already mentioned in our article about the dungeon crawler "The CTHUHLU Project", it is not possible to export graphics in IFF/ILBM format. To solve this problem, Prismatic Realms has now released a script to convert graphics into an IFF/ILBM file. This makes the use of additional programmes or online conversion tools unnecessary. The project is in development. Although it should work well in most cases, it currently has no options. If anyone encounters problems or has suggestions, please contact the author for feedback. Currently there are the following limitations: Images exported with this script do not currently support compression. If problems occur or the file size is too large, the author recommends loading the exported file into Deluxe Paint V and saving it again from there. To be able to export an image from Aseprite, the colour mode of the sprite must be set to "Indexed" and the colour palette must consist of exactly 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 or 256 colours. The script can be added via the menu File --> Scripts --> Open Scripts Folder. A registered version is required. (dr) [News message: 16. Nov. 2023, 09:40] [Comments: 1 - 18.
