  Sprites in Palette, Indexed, but legs are color-inverse.So I've been working on respriting Ivan's Space Marine mod to Black Legion Chaos Marines, and it seems to be going alright, but I've run into a problem. The legs gave me a lot of trouble when I was trying to put them in palette, but I finally got it by indexing them to the Cortex Command palette in GIMP. Now there aren't any more artifacts or invisibility, but the colors are inverted, as seen below.
 Did I not palette/index it properly? Is there something else wrong with it? Attachments:
File comment: One of the leg sprites, if you need a closer look at it.

Re: Sprites in Palette, Indexed, but legs are color-inverse. I suspect you forgot uncheck the "Removed unused colors from colormap" checkbox.

Re: Sprites in Palette, Indexed, but legs are color-inverse. You put the sprites in a palette, but a color-optimized palette that Cortex doesn't like. When I opened it in Gimp it had like 7 colors in the colormap, when it needs all of Cortex's defined 256. When you're converting a sprite into palette in Gimp, make sure the optimize palette checkbox is unchecked, as pictured here.
 EDIT: Yeah Abdul said it less verbosely |
