RgbQuant.js adapted for quantizing images for the Sega Master System hardware
npm install rgbquant-smsRgbQuant-SMS.js
-----------
This is a tool for converting an image to a palette+tileset+map compatible with the Sega Master System while keeping the number of tiles down to a predefined limit; it uses [RgbQuant.js] to reduce the number of colors, then it does the usual steps of dividing the image into tiles and removing the duplicates; finally, it uses [clusterfck]'s k-means implementation to group tiles by similarity, and uses that information for merging together tiles that are similar enough.
This is a work in progress
TODO:
- Adapt RgbQuant's quantization to work adequately with SMS's pallete: Done;
- Implement routine for dividing the quantized image into tiles: Done;
- Implement removal of duplicate tiles, including those that are flipped: Done;
- Implement removal of similar, but not necessarily identical, tiles, in order to reduce the amount of tiles to a limit specified by the user: Done;
- Allow the user to upload his/her own image for conversion: Done;
- Allow image resizing: Not started yet;
- Implement command line support: Done.
