I encountered a problem when modifying the PCX files using photoshop. They appear as the actual objects but with blue backgrounds. =x I saved them as PCX files after editing, but they still appear with a blue background. Anyone know why this happens? =/

I usually work with Paint, and counter this blue background by sampling the normal background color while in Paint and refill the area around my new object(s) with it.
I recommend putting your new graphs in a copy of an existing SMAC graph file and work from there.

In Paint Shop Pro, I saved a "palette.pal" file from palette.pcx.
Colors > Save Palette…
Whenever I edit a SMAC/X pcx, I apply that palette (nearest color) before saving the edited file.
Colors > Load Palette…
Each graphics program has its own way of saving palettes from an image, so look through the Photoshop menus to find how to save (and apply) a 256-color palette.I am on a mission to see how much coffee it takes to actually achieve time travel.
