Problems with XGSBMP and Spectrum TV driver [SOLVED!]

Spork Frog

Using XGSBMP, I converted the first BMP into a SPIN file. Using find and replace, I changed all the colors from bytes to 1 bit each (which is what the Spectrum driver needs) and changed lines to words. I thought that it would work okay. It did... sorta.

As you can see in the other picture, it's kinda distorted... groups of 8 or so pixels are shifted to the left or to the right. I'm trying to figure out wherein the problem lies, but I can't be sure.

I've attatched a copy of my code. Can anyone else see any obvious problems?

It looks like the entire image is there, it is just not ordered right. I haven't used the spectrum driver, but it looks like the image is not tiled correctly. I haven't look at the source because I am not at home, but it looks like you are *really* close to getting it.

I agree, the image is in there. I just am confused about the slgihtly messed up output.

I found my error. Apparently the DAT section for the bitmap must be BYTE-packed, not words. I didn't think it would make a difference since it's all the same in the end, but apparently it does. So converting each of my word lines into two-byte lines fixed the problem.
