Shifting colors in unit palette...

I'd like to change the shirts in Kinboat's two Chinese units (Chin Spearman and Chin Swordsman) so that the shirts become the civ-specific colored item.

Anyone know how this might be done? Kal-El?

I see that the colors in the palette for the shirt are slightly different than the default blue. If there is a simple trick, such as shifting the positions of the colors on the palette, it's eluding me.

When I alter the shirt colors to match the default blue, the sash still remains the only civ-specific area.

It seems I do not understand the nature of palette position as it relates to the storyboard.

Nobody knows??

I'm sorry that nobody else has answered your question Redking.

Have a look at this thread.....

There you should find what you are looking for (or at least it will give you some idea of how the unit palette is organised).

This might help you aslo Unit Palette Problems and my solution, -Kinboat

The more exact question that I'm having trouble answering, it seems, is: how do you reassign a particular pixel's correspondence to a position on the palette/color table?

Does that make sense?

IOW, how to make a particular pixel correspond with one of the civ-specific positions in the palette?

I've downloaded Pedit and will see if that helps.

Thanks guys.

What program are you using?
If I understand your question, you just want to switch index assignments. In that case, I'm an idiot and can't help you
I have yet to understand how to manipulate the .pal files for flicster exports I could help if this was a .pcx though
but then, so could everyone else.

Agh, I've pulled out enough hair over this one. Unless someone has a pat answer I'll leave it.

Ok, I might can help you if you have Paint Shop, but it's hard to do. Well....not really hard, just tedious.

I have a downloaded copy of PSP.

Mind you, tedious was exactly what I was trying to avoid. Pixel selection and fill isn't gonna be worth the effort, I feel.

But please let me know what yer info is, Bhiita. Thanks.
