00:48 *** Joins: Vulpor (Vulpor@Pony-nre7uj.64-138-247-net.sccoast.net)

00:50 * Ali flops over Vulpor

00:51 * Vulpor is flopped on

00:51 * Ali drops snow on Vulpor since they probably don't see it often with a sc hostmask

00:52 <Vulpor> lol Ali before living in SC I lived in upstate NY

00:53 <Vulpor> and before that Phileldelphia PA

00:53 <Vulpor> But thank you for the snow

00:53 * Ali has about 5" left on the ground

00:53 * Ali nibbles on the Vulpor ear

01:16 <WildSoft> Just saw Star Wars, who wants spoilers? :D

01:16 * Ali slaps spoilers onto WildSoft and vroom vrooms about on them.

01:17 <WildSoft> They be juicy ;) This time around I wanted to be in the know early on. The Internet is a minefield o0

01:17 * Ali doesn't want spoilers, even though she'll probably never see it

01:17 <Ali> Heck I haven't seen a Star Wars movie since Episode 3

01:20 <Ali> Those prequals just killed it for me

01:24 <ADragonDreaming> Spoiler: https://turn5.scene7.com/is/image/Turn5/391014?obj=car&wid=1200&hei=900&sharpen=1

01:25 * Ali flops onto ADragonDreaming

01:26 <ADragonDreaming> !flip

01:26 * DerpyBot flips a muffin

01:26 * DerpyBot catches the muffin with her hoof, upside down

01:26 <ADragonDreaming> hm. wanted the derpybot flip. must be random.

01:26 <ADragonDreaming> okh well.

01:30 <WildSoft> Ali: because they were awful :(

01:30 <WildSoft> Episode 7-9 are OK

01:30 <WildSoft> nothing major but a lot better than 1-3

01:30 <WildSoft> Best one is Rouge One and The Mandalorian

01:30 <Ali> 3 was the better one, but only at the very end of the prequals

01:31 <ADragonDreaming> *ahem*

01:31 <Ali> Two was too lovey dovey dark stuff

01:31 <ADragonDreaming> Rogue.

01:31 * Ali puts a bit of rouge on ADragonDreaming

01:31 <ADragonDreaming> put it on WildSoft.

01:31 * WildSoft is know a rouge

01:32 <Ali> Stay away from my master emerald

01:32 <ADragonDreaming> you do knot spell that word with a k.

01:32 * WildSoft goes invisible, sneaks up behind Ali and gently whisperer spoilers from Star Wars

01:32 * Ali doesn't listen

01:33 <Cepheid> .. Well, that's promising.

01:33 <ADragonDreaming> mowr?

01:33 <Cepheid> I implemented the LZ77 decompression as far as I understand it.  Tested it on a compressed file in the game, and... the results are... odd.  But promising.

01:33 <ADragonDreaming> aha

01:33 <Cepheid> It's a font file.  If I load the decompressed data into GIMP, set the image width to 16 pixels, using 1bpp, I can see the font.

01:34 <Cepheid> But it's shifted incorrectly.

01:34 <Cepheid> It's supposed to be a 12x12 font, but..

01:34 <Cepheid> ... Which means that the reason this is happening is because there's header data in the file.

01:35 *** Joins: cabbage (cabbage@Pony-8q0glj.dynamic.sonic.net)

01:35 <Cepheid> Unless..

01:36 <Cepheid> 12x12 is just how many pixels each character takes up.  But the actual "image" is say, 16x16.

01:38 <Cepheid> 16x16 would be 256 pixels.  Since it's 1pp, that means... 32 bytes per glyph.

01:38 <Cepheid> Is the size of the file evenly divisible by 32..?

01:38 <Cepheid> It is not.

01:42 * Cepheid writes his own code to output bit patterns to bytes.

01:47 <Cepheid> Heh.

01:47 <Cepheid> Looks like they kept all of the Japanese glyphs in the fonts.

01:53 <Cepheid> Definitely some data that shouldn't be there though.

01:58 <Cepheid> Or not.  The katakana and hiragana are still there, but the kanji appears to be missing.

02:01 <Cepheid> Ah, okay, that's the deal.

02:01 *** Quits: AppleDash (appled@Gladiolus.Rocks) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

02:02 <Cepheid> Each glyph is 16x12 bytes.  Each scanline of the glyph is extended up to the nearest multiple of 8.  Thus, by that logic...

02:04 <Cepheid> Yep, there we go.

02:11 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/LuminousOcean/status/1207845859498582017

02:17 <Cepheid> Seems the only files with .cmp are texture files.  Seems weird for those to be the only compressed files, though.

02:29 <Stormspark> hm I think I'm going to take my Gameboy Player controller to work tomorrow, take it apart, clean it out, and put a little lubricant on the internal parts.  The buttons and D-pad are a bit sticky

02:29 <Cepheid> Damn this chest infection.  Tastes like I'm coughing up blood at times.

02:36 <Cepheid> ... o.O

02:37 <Cepheid> There's texture tables, I haven't decoded them yet.  But the Font texture table references fonts as Font7x7, Font9x9, and Font11x11, not Font8x8, Font10x10, or Font12x12 as they're called in the files.

03:06 <Cepheid> Hum.  Break time for real.  Put my cat on my lap, turned TV on..

04:27 <Cepheid> Hum, I don't get this..

04:28 <Cepheid> And then, inexplicably, I solve the problem.

04:28 <Schism> My pirate friend put a nautical wheel in his kitchen. I asked what he was doing there, and he replied, "Yarrr, it's drivin' me to redecorate."

04:33 <Cepheid> Heh.

04:34 <Cepheid> Hum.. Let's see... X coordinate.  Y coordinate.  Width.  Height.  X offset.  Y offset.  That's what those values appear to be..

04:35 <Cepheid> And, given that these seem to be saved in 4 bits per pixel..  The related palette files each must have 16 colors.  And they're both 32 bytes in size, so... 2 bytes per color..

04:37 <Cepheid> However, GIMP does not support RGB565 palettes..

05:17 <Cepheid> ... Aaaaand gotcha.

05:21 <Cepheid> Right.  NDS treats palette entry #0 as "transparent."  Thus, the first entry, while having a defined color, is irrelevant.
