AmiBlitz³: Update of Includes (version 3.1e)
There are updated Includes for the basic developing environment AmiBlitz³. It is an extension of the function libraries.
The remapping of 8-Bit-screens was reworked. Colormaps are now separate objects (cmap.include) and can be loaded and saved separately.
For games you can create hand optimated palettes and can save it as IFF-CMAP or as an example picture (GIF, ILBM, PNG). This was done at AsteroidsTR which now has 256 colours.
Additionally the dithering-algorithm and dbl.include were changed.
The next update will include the monkeyscript.include. Because of legal reasons the function library giga.include could still not be published.
