well shit. trying to put it back together bent and broke the pins in the connector that goes to the springboard port.
i tried bridging the gaps since i don't have a replacement but it just turned into a horror show...
HA! contact cleaner to the rescue!
the corrosion was probably causing some conductivity around where there shouldn't be
there was nothing wrong with eyemodtool after all
inside the first gen eyemodule. i was not expecting the sensor to be on a removable header!
oh oof that corrosion
oh, yeah, jeez. didn't think to compare with the generated b/w copy (used for displaying in the visor), it has the same waffle effect. i think the sensor itself is damaged, then. bummer
for comparison, a picture i took with the first version of eyemodtool that supported the first eyemodule's color pictures (eyemodule2 just spits out straight jpeg)
it looks about right so something was being done right but i'm wondering if it's just off enough that more extreme colors would've always been broken with my converter
sadly i never actually used the eyemodule much to compare
the first shot was taken with a visor deluxe on the cartridge version of the eyemodule software, this one on a neo with the updated version of the software (the cartridge version does not support the neo), and it looks about the same, so it's not a version issue
either i'm doing something wrong on conversion or my eyemodule has gotten damaged somehow
starting to think eyemodule1 color pictures are not quite YUV (UYVY), and/or that the eyemodule1 color format is different depending on the version of the eyemodule software (since i only tried before on newer visors which needed a newer software than the one inside the eyemodule itself)
went outside with the #eyemodule today i think it's a little broken https://maple.pet/blog/extracting-eyemodule-pictures-in-2022
spent like 10 minutes on https://config.aresluna.org/ and cooked up a pixel font that would be absolute dogshit on an actual crt thanks @mwichary
mostly logic/behaviour changes that aren't really visible. new "directional" tile type allows for runners to warp back to their initial position
