For People Using PSP
For everyone using Paint Shop Pro:
The 'invisible' colours in the colour palette arent the first 2 as with Photoshop, they are instead the last two entries. So, if you are following Sn00py's tutorial, just use the last 2 entries instead of the first. Here's an example. The green and purple wont be seen in the game:Attached FilesI'm building a wagon!

transparency...
Unfortunately I can´t load the tuorial (is the link still valid?)
I can´t get the transparency colors to work
I tried to change parts of the roman palace, changed the pcx to 24bit, then reconverted it to 8bit. Then I had to change the first color (blue rgb 0 0 255), and the last two (green 0 255 0) and magenta (255 0 255), but everytime I test this, the background shows up in magenta, instead of being invisible
I also tried to move magenta to the first place in the palette, but this doesn´t help...has someone an idea how to solve it?
I use Corel´s PhotoPaint, btw...BlahComment

Frustrating isnt it. Unfortunately i dont have that program, but i can tell you how to find out what its transparency numbers are.
Load up an UNMODIFIED .pcx file in PhotoPaint, and before doing ANYTHING at all, open up the colour. Just see where the green and magenta colours are, and use those exact spots in the file you are editing. Hope that helps.
Good luck.

transparencies again...
Well, after several days of agony, I finally managed to solve my problem. I used PhotoShop 6 that I just got rather than Photo Suite, and I opened the original art file for the natural resources. Then I just cut and pasted the changes in. Since it was the original file, the palette was already set on the right colors. With Photo Suite, when I opened the original, it always loaded its own color table, and then it just wouldn't work. So I figured it out, I hope it helps somebody out.Dom Pedro II - 2nd and last Emperor of the Empire of Brazil (1831 - 1889).

Can I change the colors in palette? Or is it fixed, like in Civ II? I noticed that a lot of the files have different palettes.Visit First Cultural Industries

about animations...
I saw someone earlier had questions about .flc files (used for the animations). I was similarly unfamiliar with them so I did a bit of research and found that .flc is the autodesk animation format. It apparently has some advantages over mpeg upder certain conditions, but I really don't know that much about it.
Anyway, you could use autodesk or another specialty program to create the files, but in case you don't have that handy (I know I don't), I'd suggest just creating it as an animated gif (since there are a lot of programs that create in gif format) and then converting to .flc. Just do a search on download.com or somewhere - there are a number of freeware programs that convert .gif to .flc.
Good Luck. I haven't created .flc animations yet (I'm working on Velociryx's mod and focusing first on adding new icons) but as I get around to them I'll post here if I find anything unusual in the process.Comment

Okay, nothing happened in this thread for almost a month now and I don't want to wait forever, so I want to ask snOOpy if there is any chance your site will come back on line? Maybe some place else? I browsed thru your site and put it in my favorite-list but when I tried to go back when I needed it it was gone... Please?...Within weeks they'll be re-opening the shipyards

Thanks!Originally posted by Heed
For those using PSP just increase colour depth to 16 million (instead of the photoshop conversion to RGB) and then reduce back down to 256 when you're done editing. In PSP, the green and purple are the _last_ two colours in the colour palette (colours--> edit palette)-- index value 254 for the green and index value 255 for the purple.

This thread doesn't deserve to be at the top, if it deserves to be kept at all. I've never been able to see the site that is linked and the info posted in the responses in this thread are of dubious usefulness.
