I noticed you haven't made an Ubuntu binary since 1.0.

Thanks
What i like with this tool is that it's a complete graphic tool for the sega genesis and only for that ! Still i need to learn a bit how to use it efficiently, i guess it will arrive when i will really need to do some graphics

Oh yeah, that's because I don't have the ubuntu vm anymore. It's kinda a pain to set up

Yeah, I figured it was probably something like that. I'll just build it myself from the source.

Hi sigflup is there any chance PITS might get a windows version too?
Oh and could you maybe add support for paletted image files that already have a palette that is fully rgb333 conformant?
would rock
(and maaaaybe in the distant future support for 31 color images with 2 pallettes)

There's already a Windows binary on the download page... just click the Windows logo for the Windows version.

sigflup when you say pattern table optimized, do you mean it'll cull out duplicated tiles in an imported bmp?

Wow nice work.
I had a similar idea but I have been procrastinating too much and thus you beat me though I never did mention it here.My program is alot different the goal is to store truecolor tiles so if the palette needs changing there is no graphics rework to be done. I am glad to see a variety of utilities as one program will always do something better than another.

Interesting stuff, productivity tools like this are always helpful to get the graphics into the games which for me seems like half the challenge.

It should. If you draw on it afterwards it'll leave unused patterns in the pattern table to be consumed later.
