Original Post

While developing Snatcher I wrote a number of tools to get stuff done. The one that sparked the most interest in the community was a tool that can convert 2D images to 3D VirtualBoy images if a respective depth map is drawn. I decided to make this tool available for everyone awhile ago but got annoyed by someone who kept requesting features. So, I stopped programming some time ago. However, I decided to put this out in it’s current state. There are some features missing which I might add if this is actually put to use by someone.

There is some more info here:

Here is the lib I use:

Here is a video that shows how to draw depth maps:

Hey Thunder, are you interested in the converter being included in the next VBDE version?

Since everything in the “ThirdParty” folder is also included in VBDE, a config file to allow customizing paths would be super useful. 🙂
