No you wouldn't. Just select 'All Files' from the filetype, open the .bin file, make the tile window really small (for small files like ExGFX), go to View -> Format and click whatever format you want. |

You would have to get the the hacked version TLP Fixed to look at Bins properly. You can get it at sonicology.fateback.com just look in the download index. |

It's view -> format -> SNES, just to be perfectly clear. If it gives you an error about the scrollbar, try shrinking the tile window (reduce its height as much as possible) and try again. |

Try learning the program by yourself before you start asking questions, it's not as hard as it seems. |

Also, it seems ROM Graphix can't open BIN fies. |

With Tile Layer Pro (look at the commmons) you can export parts of the .bin file into .bmps and/or import .bmps into your .bin... I suppose that, by the thread tile, that's waht you want to know |

GFX are already limited to 16 colors anyway, aren't they? I don't see how such a limit would be a problem. I'm only working with about 10 colors here, and I can easily switch those around.
Anyway, your help is appreciated. |

Try ROM Graphix. It converts between quite a few different formats.

Converting back would be quite a bit harder, unless you were willing to limit yourself to a 16 color bitmap. Converting from higher bits IS possible, but I'd rather spend my time actually hacking than writing algorithms for such a thing. Something to keep in mind is that Super Nintendo graphics (and indeed, most classic systems) and bitmaps are in wildly different formats, so it's a lot easier to want a converter than it is to make one.
Some tile editors already have built in converters for common formats. I know YY-CHR has a very basic system, and I think Tile Molester can do it quite well, but I've never bothered with these functions. |

I'm just a bit miffed because I just lost hours of work I did trying to make a level background using the bizarrely unintuitive GFX editor included in Lunar Magic, and I absolutely refuse to manually redraw each of the 128 8 by 8 tiles that have since been lost to the sands of time. I'm wondering if there's some kind of BIN editor, or preferably something that converts BIN files into a format where I can just copy and paste everything into place and then convert it back so I can redo this in maybe 20 minutes. Has this been done? Is something like this even possible? |
