[SMBX Tool] UnMasker

[aero]

This tool allows you to convert SMBX graphics from its masked form to new PNG images with transparency. This can make sprite creation simpler, SMBX graphics compatible with Wohlstand's editor/The VSMBX editor, and whatever else you can come up with a use for. Just enter the directory your SMBX graphics are stored in with the "Graphics Settings" box, make sure your settings are correct, and hit start to convert!

looks useful alright but I can't really test it because I don't need to use it... but don't worry it will be the converter I will use if I ever need it!

Holy jesus. Probably another one of the best tools ever made. How long do you made this tool?

[Wohlstand]

He-he, you was made GIFs2PNG.NET
http://engine.wohlnet.ru/wiki/index.php ... _Converter

But here I write my comparison:
GIFs2PNG

• Console tool (There is able to use the special GUI shell which in the PGE Editor [Menu Tools -> External tools -> Convert masked GIFs into PNG])
  +Able to drag&drop source picture(s) into application (drag&drop "open by" model) to convert them into unmasked PNG
  +Able to drag&drop source directory to convert any contained GIFs in them (without looking of subdirectories)
  +Possible convert all images of whole episode (tool can walk in subdirectories)
  +Don't need for any frameworks like .NET and can be runned on almost any PC's
  +Don't need for administrator rights
  +Included with PGE Editor installation
  -To enable subdirectory looking you need execute tool by command line with special parameter, it is not user-friendly for someone
  (GIFs2PNG -W C:\SMBX\worlds\EpisodePath)
  -Size of static build of executable file is 10 MB (dynamic build will have size ~300 Kb, but you should have Qt5 runtime libraries (~40 MB of DLL's) )
  -Lazily made graphics should be fixed before starts of conversion

UnMasker

• GUI based tool
  +User friendly
  +Tiny size of application file (30 KB)
  +Lazily made graphics converting correctly with low risk of buggy result
  -Need for .NET framework (~40-120 MB size)
  -You can't drag&drop images into application file to convert them. You should to define a path to the folder
  -Strict naming of source images (you can't convert any images like "piano.gif"+"pianom.gif" without renaming, for example, into "block-x.gif"+"block-xm.gif")
  -Can't look in subdirectories.
