Tascar Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 Can someone tell me if there is a specific 256 colorset for tilesets? I thought that there was only one, and now I'm not so sure. The one I have been using has a defintely grey pattern bias, and then a yellow pattern bias. Reds and Blues are meh. I thought that this was the only possible colorset. However, I opened 17th's tileset today and noticed that they don't have the same amount of blue that I am using. Does this make sense what I'm asking? I would really like to know if there is a specific pattern, or if you can adapt a specific set of 256 colors, or if it is more open than that. Zig? Mr.Ekted? Akai? help me here fellas. Thanks! Quote
Bargeld Posted May 9, 2004 Report Posted May 9, 2004 Yes, tiles follow a specific color palette in 256 color. It's possible that the zone you saw used lvz's to create the effect you described. Quote
Tascar Posted May 9, 2004 Author Report Posted May 9, 2004 No, it wasn't lvz files. I'm probably not explaining this well. Maybe by trial this can be figured out. Ok, first, go to Omega Fire and open up the pub tileset. Copy all of it, then go to 17th and open up that tileset, paste in the OF tileset, then compare the two. There are differences in the pallette. What I can't figure out tho, is whether or not all of the colors are being accepted in both zones. It's quite confusing to me and difficult to nail. Maybe I need to compare some screenshots to the tileset and look for differences. Bargeld, if you have the a standard pallette, could you upload it here for me? thanks! Quote
Tascar Posted May 10, 2004 Author Report Posted May 10, 2004 Well, I looked more closely into this delimna. Bargeld, I hate to say it, but I think you're incorrect here. Here's why.... Open a new photoshop file 304x160 and set the act to your file. Then, paste in 17th's tileset. If I have this right, you will see a purplish tileset. Go and open their tileset in MSPaint....you will see it is blue. Go and take a screenshot of the main, and you will see that it also is blue. I don't think there is one single color table. Quote
Bargeld Posted May 10, 2004 Report Posted May 10, 2004 Sounds like support for a different palette was added when the 8/16/32 bit option was added. Thats good news! Quote
