Xbtool Question
« on: June 24, 2003, 06:54:00 PM »

Because some of the colors in the BIOS are triplets of floating point numbers which have to be converted to integers for the color picker when you load a BIOS When you save the BIOS those ints are converted back to floats. (The ints have a value of 0-255 while the floats are decimal values between 0 and 1, btw). So there are rounding errors which result in slight differences even when you made no changes.

Also, I just noticed you said unpack and pack and not load and save. In the case of packing and unpacking, there are more than one way to pack a BIOS. The way xbtool packs them is slightly different from the way it was originally packed.
