Simple C++ Library to swap colours of an input RPG Maker Bitmap.
Takes two input CSV-formatted color palettes to swap, one for the other.
This allows you to create simple greyscale or other images which can then be dynamically colorized, for example to create a character or item customisation option.
To use:
Download Release/PaletteSwap.dll from the GitHub repository. Place this in the root folder of your project.
Next, place this script above Main:
Code:
module PaletteSwap
VERSION = 1.0
DLL_NAME = 'PaletteSwap' # Optionally change this to store the DLL elsewhere
module Error
def self.raise_error(err, obj, msg)
klass = obj.class.to_s
stack = caller.slice(1..15)
stack.each do |i|
script = i.scan(/\d+/)[0]
i.sub!(/{\d+}/, $RGSS_SCRIPTS.at(script.to_i)[1]) if script
end
raise err, msg % klass << "\n\n#{stack.join("\n")}"
end
def self.raise_bitmap(bitmap)
raise_error(RGSSError, bitmap, "%s is a disposed or invalid bitmap!")
end
end
end
#==============================================================================
# ** Bitmap
#==============================================================================
class Bitmap
@@colorize = Win32API.new(PaletteSwap::DLL_NAME, 'Colorize', ['l', 'p', 'p'], 'l').freeze
# Colorize call
def colorize!(og_palette, new_palette)
PaletteSwap::Error::raise_bitmap(self) if self.disposed?
@@colorize.call(object_id, og_palette, new_palette)
end
endThen call like so (example from Essentials):
Code:
bmp = BitmapCache.load_bitmap("example.png")
bmp.colorize!("75,75,75\n105,105,105\n135,135,135", "50,65,98\n65,96,159\n57,119,198")The palette sizes should be the same length. Please ensure these strings are properly formatted with the RGB values separated by commas and each separate color separated by "\n".
This will swap each color in the first list, e.g.
rgb(105,105,105), with the corresponding item in the second list, i.e. rgb(65,96,159).I'm using this for a clothing generator, but I thought this could potentially have more uses to a wider audience.
