Prince of Persia

So I exported a pv.dat with PR, But I want to edit this in Adobe Photoshop, but I only have 17 or less colors... When I change the indexed color to RGB color and import it into POP1, I feel like EVERY unknown color i-turns WHITE! Why is this?

Thanks

The DOS port works with indexed palettes only; you can't use RGB.
You can, however, use SDLPoP instead, which will continue to work fine even with custom RGB images.

That's where the problem comes in... I am using SDLPop... So what to change, can I change the range of the indexed color?

You're using SDLPoP for playtesting, but you are not modding SDLPoP.

To mod SDLPoP instead of the DOS port, change the images in SDLPoP's data/ directory.

If you want changes to show up when using apoplexy, also delete the related DAT files from the prince/ directory.
For example, if you modify the pillows in the princess' room (data/PV/res981.png), also delete prince/PV.DAT.
(Hm... is there any way to prevent modders from having to do this?)

Yep, that worked! Thanks

Maybe an algoritm that uses PR to do this automaticly inside apoplexy, if that is what you mean...
