QB64 _loadimage statement shows PCX16 color 1 bit plane image error, 4 bit plane image is correct

Welcome to the QB64-PE forum.

Thank you for reporting. Can you please share a sample PCX file that has the issue? Or maybe a link?

I've mostly tested 8bpp/1 plane indexed and 24bpp/3 & 4 plane PCX files.

I can't upload the file, pcx16 color 1 bit plane image is very common, you can use image software to convert it, after all, it's not 16 color 4 bit plane

I have uploaded the picture as an attachment, you can test it

I was beginning to wonder which software can create PCX files using these old formats. Irfan Viewer can open the files you shared maybe it can export these old formats too. But thanks for sharing.

The PCX loader that we use (dr_pcx) has this note.

So, I guess it needs some work with these old formats. I'll take a look at it over the weekend.
