How to load custom palettes into the MCDedit?
« on: August 30, 2020, 02:54:14 pm »
I have custom palette. How to apply it in the MCDedit so that i can draw objects with colors stored in it? Or how to, at least, make MCDedit not to match loaded PNG files to original palette?

you can probably convert your palette into the original xcom format and replace the PALETTES.DAT file in MCDEdit's ufo/GEODATA folder

just guessing, I have not tested it

This is good idea. Do you know how to convert PAL to the original x-com format?
