A few days ago a client asked me if I can convert ATF (Adobe Texture Format) to PNG images. Knowing that ATF files are used by some Starling developers when developing games and applications with Adobe Air, I knew that I could build a tool that will load the graphic, add it to the stage, then basically, take a screenshot of the entire stage and save it as a PNG image file. It took a a few hours to get the final application done. I’ve made it available for download in case anyone else needs to convert ATF to PNG (with transparency).

Hello Mr. vamapaull.com

Mr. Yinqiang Zhu from China has for me actually already be project for atf v0.6

then finished atf 0.6 images successfully converted to png.
Only for me His tool has never worked. Why I do not know.
Only v0.5 Pictures ok to convert to png from him.
I have tested on all Windows System with all Adobe AIR Installer.
Your Tool atf2png /PNG/testfile.png the same Error only 17 kbyte with empty contents.
Can You Help me ? Thank You for a Info or else
Greets from Germany Europe me
I speak a little English and ohter is Google Translator sorry.

Can you please send me a file that you can’t convert?

I’ve looked through Yinqiang Zhu code and he’s doing what I’m also doing. He adds the image to the stage and then make draws a BitmapData that he later saves as a PNG. His tool is not working for me either for V0.6 ATF files. I’m not sure if I can help you convert those images.
Also, the xenocracy picture viewer does not have the source code available on github. Those are just some empty files.
“Those are just some empty files”
I do not understand quite what they mean.
ATFViewer.exe can open atf Picture\v6\alliance0.atf
Yes only Adobe has the Sourcecode from ATFViewer.exe sorry
Your ATF2PNG.air can open and convert: atf-Picture1\atf Picture\v5\lena.atf
https://github.com/yinqiang/atf2png
But Yinqiang Zhu should be able to open v06
see it as something in the code that is helpful.
And that is exactly what allows the successful
convert v06 atf?. He told me yes my successful atf06
converted.
Have You tested Atf2png.air build v0.2 by him ?
https://github.com/yinqiang/atf2png/tree/master/build
have an idea?
Thank You for Help me 🙂
Maybe I wasn’t clear enough. I’ve tested Atf2png.air and it’s not converting the V0.6 file.
Do you have a possibility of your
Source atf2png for atf0.6 update?
Sorry, no.
and what exactly is crucial if the atf images in version 5 or 6 is stored correctly in the source code. I’m just not a programmer. Can you enlighten me then after area?
they have no possibility of your code to change so that you can convert atf 0.6?.
Thanks for a hint regards
this tool is so great! Many many thanks to you
Doesn’t work. Everything I try converting just becomes a 256 x 256 white square.
I was able to get atf2png to work on approximately 15% of the files I was using. Now I have been forced to upgrade to Windows 10 and I cannot seem to get the program to initialize. Is ATF2PNG compatible with Windows 10?
Thank you.
I’m not entirely sure, but it should be. It’s made with Adobe AIR.
Hi, This tool is very good, thank you.
But
It can’t convert big file for example 8 megabyte , or 4 mb and more.
when i choose the big file, the program will be white !!!
any help or idea?
Today I built a tool in AIR to convert ATF spritehseets to PNG components and I encountered the issue where a large amount of my PNG’s would be output as white images. To fix the issue, I made sure my stage size was at least as big as the largest asset: problem solved.
Not sure if this is related to the issues mentioned above, but worth a shot.
Hi there Mr.Paul
Your tool is definitely something that is amazing.
I would like to ask your assitance with an issue i am having. Whenever the files ar roughly around 1Mb or less, they get converted really easly and quickly, but if i try to convert ATF files that are about 2Mb or more.. they seems to never getting converted to PNG. The tool seems to be stuck into the work of converting them but never seems to end the conversion. I tried to wait even 10-20m for each image, as i was thinking that since the files are big, the tool would need more time to do that, but nothing.
How can i convert those files (they are all around 3MB each) to PNG?
Hi Bryan !
If you are using tool like PNG2ATF to convert back your images to .ATF i think that the images are or Protected from decomplation or a bit corrupted and that prohibit the Convertion back to PNG so if you still have your main image or texture thats probably the only way you can get trough this.
