Png2nw

So I worked out how to take a png and turn it into a playable level. I figured I would share.

I took this level(I don't think Bartholomew will mind-- I doubt he even has this level anymore):
http://forums.graalonline.com/forums...ad.php?t=75934

And produce a level(attached)!

Notice how the npcs that were in the screenshot lay down the corner of a block, so this isn't really feasible with a level that has lighting effects or tons of npcs.

Not much else here-- just figured I'd share what I've been working on.


If you have a level that you want recovered from a screenshot throw it in here and ill have a run at it.

Think a little hard on the base concept of this and you may see something.

I already know what you were implying but that's not a problem.

I suppose not now, but I'll agree to the fact there's more pros than there are cons.

You used to be able to hit alt + 5 to save an online level. Level stealing wouldn't be a problem.

Probably impossible. Maps lose data from being shrunken down.

Yeah-- I can't think of any way to take a map image and turn it in to levels.

For example -- if two tiles shared the same pixels just arranged in a different fashion(a mirrored version of the same tile like roof corners) it'd be impossible to differentiate.

Like something that I don't have the tileset for... or like a photograph?
