Im just about finished with my Nebelwerfer and wanted to get a pallete added for ease of use later. But i came across some problems with getting the pallete right with the smoke. And as you can see its not working to well. I know that the shadow is going to look pink in game but i dont want to have to go back in a guess and check manner to find the correct colors. Does anyone have a solution to this?

Maybe you could make my pallete for me ;)

The top is after i apply my pallete and bottom is the render and the right is the pallete.

go through, edit your pallete, and just pull the saturation bar to zero on any of the pinkish colors in your main pallette. The top two rows you need not worry about, as they will appear grayscale and transparent.

To make a pallete, (this is for PSP, but I think the principle can apply to photoshop) render your model with a 128,128,128 gray background, and floor etc, instead of magenta, and then reduce it to "x" colors.

The value of x, when prompted should be 256 (total color pallette) - 64 (civ colors/ ie blues) - 32 (alpha blend colors) = 160

I like to also reserve 8 for any super-post processing effects, so I usually reduce it to 152 colors.

then, use the palette editor "pedit", and insert these 152 colors.

I have made a palette from the picture you have posted. The palette is in the GIF file. ;)

When I do smoke, I like to use only those two top rows, i.e. transparency colours. That way I get away from the "pink-smoke"-issue.
