CBM Viewer

During my work on a mission editor for Lucasarts X-Wing Alliance I fiddled a little bit with the images stored in the CBM file format. Thanks to the specs from Code Alliance I was able to read these files. I have written a small viewer which can display the images and animations and save them as Windows Bitmap files.

Current version is: 1.1

Changes since Version 1.0:

  • The viewer can now handle the 8 bit images natively. Converting to 24 bit is no longer needed. This results in a much faster loading of the CBM files and written BMP files are also 8 bit instead of 24 bit.
  • Added Pagescrollers to the menubar and toolbar.
  • Added image size informations to the status bar.
  • Fixed a positioning bug which occured if using the center function while the window size is very small.
