Thank you, there’ll be a 64-bit version too!

AMIGASYSTEM

When I finalize the source code for Targa Datatype in the next two weeks then there will be a 64bit version after that.

This binary is the one I'm using for testing. It's functional. I'm planning to make a few code changes that won't affect the performance of the datatype - just cosmetic changes.

In order to test the new Targa Datatype you will need the updated MultiView and some test pics. I'll upload them here later today.

Here is the updated version of
MultiView for testing Targa Datatype and some Targa test images.

Pay no attention to the MultiView version. It was just a quick update so I didn't change the version.

To test the datatype open any of the sample Targa images in MultiView. Then choose "Project->Save As" to save a "new copy" using the datatype save function. This process will test the load and save functions.

Although all the images will be rle compressed the original file size and new file size may not match. Mostly because my Datatype doesn't yet write the Targa 2.0 Footer at the end.

New & Updated Datatypes Status:

Edits & code cleanup for Targa Datatype is nearly completed. When completely finished I will post the new datatype & the source code.

PCX Datatype is not as bad as I remember it. I started collecting my current sources so I can start testing.

Also started three new Datatypes: JNG Datatype, MNG Datatype & MP3 Datatype. The last one uses Lib Mpega. We will see how it goes!
