# VMU Tools

This python project is designed to be a fully loaded suite of VMU tools for the Dreamcast.

## Features
* Read and extract data from .VMS and  .VMI files
* Generate icons from ICONDATA and VMS files
* Generate VMI files from VMS 
* Read and manipulate VMU dumps files
* Extract and upload save games from VMU dump files
* update VMS icons from PNG and JPEG
> Checkout examples.py and example files for all features

## Install 
``` python
pip install vmu-tools --upgrade
```

## Examples
### As a python package
```python
import vmut

# Load .VMS file
VMS = vmut.vms.load_vms("example_files/SCALIBUR.VMS")

# Print info
print(VMS.info)

# Save icon
VMS.image_save("animaed.gif")

# Generate Checksum
print(VMS.generated_crc())

#Generate VMI
VMS.vmi_gen("test.vmi", "slurmking.com", "test VMI file")

#Fix crc
VMS.fix_crc()
```
### Convert image to VMU Icon
> For best results use a square image scaled to 32x32

```python
vmut.Icon(image="example_files/slurm.png", threshold=160, invert=True).save()
```

## Roadmap
* Change VMU color
* Convert VMU dumps to and from .DCI files
* Modify VMU ICONDATA from VMU dumps
* Possible GUI / Electron app
* Possibly implement a built-in webserver for file transfers from Dreamcast
