So, about that last post...

Sometime fairly shortly after making that last post, my largest hard drive took a dive. That drive contained my OS X install, among many other things. The good news is, that I managed to salvage most of my important data. The bad, was my Mac partition wasn't among said data. Unfortunately, that was only the tip of the iceberg when it came to bad news.

Anyway - I'm not posting this to start a pity party, just wanted to explain why the mac related section of both of my BLP projects here - are getting pretty embarrassing by now.

So. Back to WoW, both BLP related projects have been recently updated, and I immediately followed that up with getting Mountain Lion re-installed. The latter part took a good 4 days - mostly because I forgot how the hell I did it the first time. But. Everything's working right now except for the sound, and I don't need sound to code.

The Mac version of BLPNG Converter is coming along nicely - UI itself is done, and the code behind it is getting pretty close as well. Most of what's left on that end, boils down to stuff like saving settings, handling writing permissions, and preparing the images for conversion to BLP. Once that's complete, the final major step is hooking it up to the code that actually does the converting.

So, enough blabbing for now - how about some screenshots?


Basic initial view - same drop zone layout as the Windows one - sans menu bar of course.


Conversion progress modeled off the standard copy progress dialogue


(Successful) Conversion complete view, with a disabled "Log" button. Different message and icon will show if there are errors, and the log button will display a similar error log to the Windows version.
