Hey guys. Thought I'd throw this out there... know there are a few techy/smart people here, so I was hoping for some input. This isn't necessarily a programming or image processing problem but kind of a puzzle.
I've been writing a program to render an image from a proprietary format (something that isn't jpg, png, bmp or any other normal format) into a png file. After quite a bit of work, I've finally managed to output something that looks close to what the actual image is. The problem I've encountered is that the image (the data for which is written in 32x32 pixel blocks) is still a little garbled.
Each 32x32 block is written pixel-by-pixel, left-to-right, row-to-row. While this looks close, it is not correct. You can see line artifacts that indicate the data may be written in 4 pixel increments. I'm curious if anyone can figure out what the pixel order should be for these 32x32 block areas? I'm not much a visual problem solver but maybe someone will have an idea:
