How to make a color iridescent sprite in Half-Life

Rainbow Sprite

Rainbow Sprite is a simple console application that allows you to animate the Half-Life sprite, adding the effect of color transfusion.

How to use

Using the command line, launch the application with the following arguments: sprite_name.spr color_row_value "red green blue" "red green blue" ...

• color_row_value is the number of gray colors for one frame of animation. Simply put, this is picture quality. It is better to leave in the range from 5 to 10. Too much value is better not to set - it depends on the number of received frames.
• "red green blue" is the keyframe color. To loop the animation, repeating the first frame at the end is unnecessary.

Examples

• RainbowSprite my_sprite1.spr 8 "255 0 255" "128 0 0"
• RainbowSprite my_sprite2.spr 5 "255 0 0" "0 0 64" "0 255 0"
