Changelog:
- Allows to load/save controller pak to file. Please use any .mpk file and c-down button. It works only if controller pak plugged into joy port1. /ED64/dummy.mpk file can be used for exchange.
- Ability to force default save type.

HermIRES e’ un hires bitmap (Art Studio 1 format) editor per il Commodore 64.
The format has some restrictions, here are the rules:
- The maximal resolution of the picture is 320×200
- Only 16 fix C64 colours can be used (no gradient either)
- In a 8×8 pixel-block only 2 colours can used to be displayable by C64 (this is detected in HermIRES, but .hbm files can be saved with clashes too.)
- On a real C64 the PAL will blur the screen-content a bit, should check on CRT, or at least VICE emulator’s CRT simulation.
Changelog:
Added:
- Color swapping fast-button – Tilde “`” button (BitBreaker’s idea)
- Show pen-diameter preview circle if diameter is bigger than the default
- *dense (pixel-scale) grid toggleable (in bigger magnifications too).
- *added ‘Deny painting’,'Reuse existing colour’ and ‘Set block colour’ mode to ClashTest – different settings on/off in case clash would happen…
- *showing zoomed area in the preview, allow going to area in zoomed mode when left-clicking on preview
- Showing ongoing progresses by text/graphics (loading/converting/drawing…)
- Selectable CRT emulation for Preview/Grid only… (for faster operation on slow machines)
- Undo step number displayed (should undo history also be saved?)
Fixed:
- Control/shift/alt stucked in Win7 with allegro devpak 4.2… -> using allegro devpak 4.4.2 version instead!
- Reduced overall CPU usage – refined timed and pixelling/detection events
- iI Windows it was slow (especially in CRT emulation) -> wrote optimized software CRT-emul.pixelling for GridDrawer, not relying on hw-acceleration
- *pressing F1..F4 fucked up (enlightens) toolbar sometimes – solution: timing stabilizer / thread safety check solved it
- Preview-zoom title-text was overwritten by Grid-Zoom-text in the smallest resolution mode with 2-digit magnifications
- *there was ‘allegro error #11′ and ‘segmentation fault’ at lower than required resolution – it was logical mistake in resolution-decider loop
- Made dithered and big-pendiameter filled rectangle/circle drawing faster (set the steps according to pen-diameter)
- *allegro filename-extension detection was wrong – if ‘.’ used in filename and no extension given, only the name before was saved to disk! -> used ustrcmp & strcat instead
- *C64-executable format name-tag (caption) now editable (deleting it disables it)
