I've upgraded my Tile Joiner application to utilize the Vampyre Imaging Library. This has added the ability to import MANY different file types as well as export to many different file types. Also included is a new Lua exporter as another sample exporter (Ini, XML, and Lua).

The largest change is that now transparency is retained as long as the export format supports transparency.

Coolness. I'll start messing around with this and turning PNG tiles with transparency into DDS images with frame information through a custom script. Assuming that Asphyre doesn't want me to change things around, given that the current snapshot isn't entirely documented.

Any thought to adding functions to allow batch conversion of tiles into multiple files, then permitting an automatic packing into a zip archive? Abbrevia (http://tpabbrevia.sourceforge.net/) is cross platform and should work with FPC/Lazarus too, I think. (I'd suggest grabbing the 3.5 beta if I were you.) It's worth a look at the least.
