NAME
       cdpth2tga — CDPTH depth image to TGA converter


SYNOPSIS
       cdpth2tga [options] cdpth 2da tga


DESCRIPTION
       cdpth2tga  converts  CDPTH  depth information files into common TGA images.  CDPTH, Compressed DePTH, are
       used as depth information for area background images in BioWare's Nintendo DS game Sonic Chronicles:  The
       Dark Brotherhood.

       Layout-wise,  a  CDPTH is stored similar to CBGT: cells of 64×64 pixels, compressed using Nintendo's 0x10
       LZSS algorithm.  Unlike CBGT, though, the cells themselves are not swizzled into 8×8 tiles, and the pixel
       value in CDPTH is a 16bit integer specifying a depth.

       The width and height of the final image is not stored within the CDPTH file, and has to be provided  from
       the  outside,  like  from  the  dimensions of the CBGT image, the dimensions of the 2DA file for the CBGT
       image.

       The depth information is stored as 16-bit values, but only the lower 15 bits are  used.   For  conversion
       into a grayscale image, those 15 bits of grayscale information are further compressed to 8-bit.


OPTIONS
       -h
       --help
             Show a help text and exit.
       --version
             Show version information and exit.
       cdpth
           The name of the CDPTH file to read.  The CDPTH contains the depth information part of the image.
       2da
           The name of the 2DA file to use.  The 2DA is necessary to know how many cells are in the CDPTH file.
       tga
           The resulting TGA file will be written there.


EXAMPLE
       Convert a CDPTH+2DA into a TGA:

             $ cdpth2tga a.cdpth a.2da result.tga
