Anycubic-Mega-TFT-Resource-Converter

This tool converts BMPDATA.BIN and TABLE.BIN to BMP images and vise versa. It allows you to edit images on Anycubic i3 Mega / Mega-S TFT display:

• add translation
• modify backgorunds
• create "themes"

Limitations

• only working with 03 version of display
• the maximum size of embedded flash accessible through USB ia around 3.5MB. Although it might report 16MB, actual chip size is 4MB
• you can't resize images above the limit 480(W)x320(H)
• you can't remove or add new bitmaps
• if you want to rename a file, you must keep the first number and first underscore at the beggining of the file
• only BMP files are supported
• touch screen areas are hardcoded in MCU's APROM
• dynamic text properties, foreground and background colors, are hardcoded either

Usage

convert.exe "PathToDirectory" [-o -i]

• -o - optimize output file size by re-using bitmap data
• -i - ignore all restrictions, might be very unsafe
