this tutorial might be a good place to start (shout-out to WYE).
Actually, they already seem to be able to insert ExGFX and associated files.
Originally posted by ProjectProtoconI was trying to add a background and a ForeGround ExGFX at the same time and one palette overwrote the other and I have zero clue how to fix this. And I don't know how to assign the map 16 data to a different thing or whatever it was you said
In that case, follow these steps:
1) Open the Palette Editor (
)
2) Ctrl+Alt+Left click the palette row used by one of the conflicting graphics (Foreground or Background). That will copy that palette row.
3) Click
to import the palette of the other conflicting graphics.
4) Ctrl+Alt+Right click the palette row you copied (in step 2) in a different palette row. That will paste the palette into that row.
5) Open the 16x16 Tile Map Editor, also known as the Map16 Editor (
)
6) Find the tiles of the graphics that use the palette you pasted into a different row. As in, if in step 2 you copied the Foreground's palette, then find the Foreground's tiles in the Map16 Editor.
7) Now select them.
8) Locate the field that says "Palette" at the left side of the Map16 Editor's window.
9) Now change the selected tiles' palette to match the palette row you chose in step 4.
10) Find the save button (
) in the Map16 Editor's window and press it.
Choose wisely where you're pasting the palette in step 4 to not overwrite important colors, such as the status bar's. For future reference, we have
