- --------I-PIC-------------------------------
-
- PIC files contain images in an uncompressed format. Both the original
- Animator and Animator Pro from Autodesk produce PIC files. The file
- formats are different; Animator Pro produces a hierarchial block
- oriented file, while the original Animator file is a simpler fixed
- format. See PIC(Pro) for further information on the Animator Pro PIC
- format.
-
- The original Animator uses this format to store a single-frame picture
- image. This format description applies to both PIC and original Animator
- CEL files. The file begins with a 32 byte header, as follows:
-
- OFFSET Count TYPE Description
- 0000h 1 word ID=9119h
- 0002h 1 word Width of image; PIC files have always a width
- of 320, CEL images may have any value.
- 0004h 1 word Height of image, 200 for a PIC, any value for
- a CEL file.
- 0006h 1 word X offset of image, always 0 for a PIC image,
- may be nonzero in a CEL image.
- 0008h 1 word Y offset of image. Zero for a PIC file.
- 000Ah 1 byte Bits per pixel (8)
- 000Bh 1 byte Compresion flag, always zero
- 000Ch 1 dword Size of the image data in bytes
- 0010h 16 byte reserved(0)
-
- Immediately following the header is the color map. It contains all 256
- palette entries in rgb order. Each of the r, g, and b components is a
- single byte in the range of 0-63. Following the color palette is the
- image data, one byte per pixel, from left to right, top to bottom.
