This repo is no longer active, instead I have moved to gitlab. Therefore I will no longer be updating this repository.
To get the latest changes, go to: https://gitlab.com/Protofall/VWing-LEV-Converter
This program will take a ".LEV" file made with the MS-DOS game VWing's level converter and converts it into a Png. The levels are actually 256-colour palette, 640 by 800 pcx files, except the 128-byte header has different content. Because pcx files aren't really supported by modern OSes anymore, I decided to convert them to PNGs instead. I've also included the original MS-DOS game in this repo since its a bit hard to find and it is shareware.
NOTE: This includes V-WING v1.95 Shareware edition. I won't include the paid version because, well, its paid and not free. I will say there are older paid versions out there if you look hard enough
This program won't see much use since almost no one is playing this game anymore, but I remember playing it as a kid and finding it fun and I wanted to see the whole level in their glory.
Dependencies:
- libpng
Run make to compile the program.
Run ./VWing-LEV-To-Png [LEV_filename] [Png_filename]
