NAME
lgc-pg - Converter Tool for original Panzer General® Data Files
SYNOPSIS
lgc-pg [-s SOURCE] [-d DEST] [--defpal] [--custom] [-n NAME] [-i ID] [-t TACICONS]
DESCRIPTION
LGC-PG is a simple tool to convert the original Panzer General® Data into LGeneral Data Files. It requires a graphical desktop environment for the conversion.
OPTIONS
|
-s |
You always need to specify the source directory (which contains the original data or a custom scenario). | ||
|
-d |
This specifies the destination path that contains the LGeneral data struct. (usually /usr/share/games/lgeneral) |
--defpal
This one is optional and forces all PG graphics to use the default palette. Usually you won’t need this but if a custom scenario you converted offers some strange graphics it might be due to a corrupted palette and the default one may provide better results.
--custom
If you convert a custom scenario you should add this and the following options.
|
-n |
This is the scenario’s file name and default title. |
-i <ID>
This is the <ID> in the source file name (game<ID>.scn). If you do not specify an ID the default is O.
-t <TACICONS>
If custom tactical icons are involved (scenario offers a TACICONS.SHP)this is the name of the graphical file. If this option is not provided it defaults to <NAME>.bmp.
