View/15 v4.00
Features:
o Reads Targa 24-bit Uncompressed, Vivid/Alias 24-bit,
DBKTrace/PVRay 24-bit and NIF 15-bit files
o Reads NAF Animated Files
o Recognizes GIF87a, GIF89a, Windows Bitmaps and others
o Supports ET-4000 Hicolor, ET-4000 and boards with a VESA BIOS
o Allows 15-bit, 24-bit files to be displayed in 256 color modes*
o Writes NIF 15-bit RLE compressed files. When converting from a
24-bit to NIF, compression ratio can exceed 90%
o Accepts Wildcards as filenames
o Will write 4DOS Descriptions of each file read (file type,
resolution and number of colors)
o Will simply display information of each file in the specified
directory.
o Allows you to determine which video mode to use
If you enter "VIEW15 /?" you'll get a listing of all the
available video modes
o Automatic detection and use of second monochrome monitor to
display image/video board specific information
* The color mapping function of View/15 is seriously slow. I am currently
working on this. There are three different palettes to choose from:
Palette 0: Best all-around colors. Lotsa mixed colors
Palette 1: Contains the most "pure" colors of different intensities.
Excellent for ray-tracings.
Palette 2: Gray-Scale
Usage: VIEW15 <filename/wildcard> [options]
/HELP Provides a full listing of the options
/4DOS Writes 4DOS Description of each file. Example:
vivid1.img 788698 11-03-92 23:45 Vivid [800x600x 16.8M]
/INFO Provides information about each file specified. Example:
Filename Type Resolution Colors
------------ ---- ---------- ------
BALL .IMG Vivid 320x200 16.8M
NEAT1 .NIF Nick's 480x480 32768
MICHAEL .TGA Targa 400x400 16.8M
TORUS .DMP PVRay 200x200 16.8M
THREE .NIF Nick's 400x400 32768
/CONV Converts the specified files to .NIF format. This 15-bit format
saves a considerable amount of drive space.
