FE_MINIMAP_LUKUP_f1.bif

I've just finished changing this file. Extracted to .bmp, edited accordingly imported back in and working fine. The only problem is, as far as I can see, two provinces: Corsica and Milan. The palette index of Corsica is 178 and Wessex is 10, the problem is that Paint Shop Pro refuses to just force 178 for Corsica and keeps using 10 because it is the same RGB value and comes earlier in the palette. The same goes for Milan which is using 16 (unused as far as I can tell) instead of 184 because again 16 comes earlier in the palette. For example picking 184 with the eyedropper and then drawing with that colour still gives 16.

Any ideas? Does the gimp or Photoshop have this problem?

Re: FE_MINIMAP_LUKUP_f1.bif

Hmmm - there shouldn't be any repeated colours in the palette - I did have a similar problem with Milan and Corsica getting confused on one I did, but I put it down to going through a non-indexed colour mode en route to the final map (was making big border changes so had it in RGB a while so I could use layers to "trace" through from one to another).

I'd suggest opening a virgin file and recheck the colours in the palette, then manually edit the entries in the palette of your new BIF file using BIFReader.

Actually, no, I have the figures to hand ~D

And suddenly I'm confused :inquisitive: There shouldn't be any repeats - I notice though that 184 is the same as 15 (not 16, but did you start counting from 0?), and 10 and 178 are identical, just as you say.

But I expect a work-around would be re-edit the brushes in BIFReader, even if the colour is the same, this app maintains the index number, so it should work. Now I need to work out why my own BIF palette above has duped colours??? I wonder if you used my palette and this introduced the dupe??

And suddenly I'm confused :inquisitive: There shouldn't be any repeats - I notice though that 184 is the same as 15 (not 16, but did you start counting from 0?), and 10 and 178 are identical, just as you say.

But I expect a work-around would be re-edit the brushes in BIFReader, even if the colour is the same, this app maintains the index number, so it should work. Now I need to work out why my own BIF palette above has duped colours??? I wonder if you used my palette and this introduced the dupe??

Sorry I meant 15 and not 16 - my mistake.

I haven't used your palette in the file, only as a reference (and very useful it was too, thanks) the duplicate values exist in the palettes inside the actual BIFs themselves. 009 and 011 are also duplicated RGB values as 177 and 179 respectively. There may be more but I can't see any yet.

Manually colouring in with bif reader is the only option unless I can find another image editor that doesn't have this problem. Thanks for your assistance.

:bow:

-Edit: Manually colouring in from readbif, though tedious worked. First I had recolour as blank, so that I can see the difference, and then colour in again with the correct index.
