BMP signature missing?
Created by: Kodden585
I've compiled the software on Linux and prepared an image I wanted to try displaying on my Gameboy Color. I scaled and cropped it to 160x144 and saved it as a 32 bit bitmap, but bmp2cgb keeps spitting out the following.
Error: BMP signature missing!
I tried looking through the code even though I'm not exactly a programmer, and I figured that the Microsoft Bitmap exported from GIMP is invalid somehow. I tried doing several things such as dithering it beforehand and saving it as a 256 color bitmap, and even resaving it in MS Paint on a virtual machine with Windows on it, but it keeps spitting out the same message.
Is there maybe something missing in the manual file?
