Is there a program to set the color depth in a PCX to 256 colors?

You want Irfan, so you do

Other people swear by Bright.

I mean by Batch.

I've got 190 files to convert.

By the way the link to Bright is broken.

It does batch conversion and renames as well.

But it can't reduce color depth while converting.

Wait, nevermind, I found the control.  Sorry to waste everybody's time.

Oh by the way, I can't give any personal testimonial about either of these programs.  I've not used either of them before -- just passing on the info.

My apologies.  It won't happen again.

I use bright for large ani conversion, it takes forever but if you have your files in TGA format
make a bat file like this,

Code: [Select]


bright file*.tga -common -o
ac file0000.pcx

and have the bright exe and the AC exe in the same folder as the source files
you simply run the bat and go for a walk, depending on the size and number of files (assuming were talking a big ani here, weapon icons won't take long at all) it can take half an hour to two or three hours but you're not doing anything, and the animation will look perfict

I do the same for conversion as you Bobboau, and it works/looks great when converted. Allot better then Irfanview, i only use that program when i want to watch a whole bunch of files.
