Just download palette editor, and open the Chocobo in it, there will be option to make all kinda previews.

Maybe I'm a tard but I have never seen that in Palette Editor O.o 
I just checked and couldn't find an option to do so either, Kage, which version of Palette Editor do you have??

Yeah, its not there, I can't make previews. Maybe only Lijj and Mando know how to do it?

Update, lighter green chocobo with darker green legs, lighter blue with dark blue legs. I'm trying to stay as close to FF VII as possible! Hope you like it!  :mrgreen:

Open a sheet in Palette Editor, highlight the the option you want (example: Basic Monster Sheet) and click save once the image shows itself.

Thanks Kage and Elric, got it working now:

Green looks very nice, very very nice, blue too, but i think the contrast between the legs and the body is too much now, make those legs with a little lighter green and that should do it.

Ramza: Does your contract says: "When you find a former squire, that now is a Holy knight that has kidnapped a princess, in a bridge by a waterfall fighting a brigade you are supposed to kill everybody that helps him!"
Gaffgarion: ... Sure!
Ramza: ... Let me see your contract...
Gaffgarion: ... No...

Aw yeah, blue looks good.  Like a blue popsicle, just the way I like my battle chickens.

Don't even have the concept or something? I know there's an armored chocobo portrait on my HDD somewhere..


IIRC I was working off the artwork from one of the newer main FF games. X maybe or something.

Yellow, Black and Gold update, they also have colorful legs (not brown or anything). I honestly think Black and Gold chocobos must have the same color legs or they don't look right:

Black is awesome, i like it very much.

Lijj

Nice black, you were right about mine being too grey. Damn We need some in couerl colors.
  • Modding version: PSX

Jon

Thanks! Black is really easy to do, start with their darkest color being 1, 1, 1 and then the second darkest being 3, 3, 3 and continue upwards til the lightest color only by 1 each time, so 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, etc. :mrgreen:

Btw, that black is my favorite chocobo I ever made!

I don't even know what to say to this awesomeness.
So I won't.

Seriously though, darken the beaks a little...too ostentatious.

mav

There are some pretty nice ones here. Way before I realized hacking FFT existed, I had created some custom Chocobo palettes myself. I was always a fan of them looking natural in both FFT's setting as well as in the wild. Like, how would a black Chocobo be purple and survive in the wild? It's beyond me. I made a brownish/black palette, a jade green palette (much like Lijj's), and a less pink red one. It's been a decade, so those are long gone.

Back on topic though, I like these a lot. We should take the best 8 and submit em as one sheet. And be careful on the portraits, guys. Some of them look like they've lost depth, cause the shades are too close in color to one another.

Jon

I see what you mean about the portraits, didn't realize that! Yeah, compare the gold to the standard yellow and his head looks like one big orange color...gotta change that...

Should we kinda vote for which chocobos should be on this 8 palette sheet to submit? I vote only my black one please, I think the rest should be obviously the standard yellow and Lijj's/Mando's versions.

Anyone think the gold one I did is a tad too saturated? I seriously wonder how it would look in game...

Lijj

I would like your black included, Mando's denim blue and my red and white (the second one). Those are the one I really like. Denim makes a good palette one. But really everyone probably has their own taste so I'd suggest just grabbing the ones you want for your own personal sheet. But be aware of the ones, as mav said, with portraits having lack of depth on some.
The other's maybe the green idk.. flamingo pink maybe.

Mav, that's pretty funny that you did that so long ago.. pretty cool!
I had a dream soo long ago... maybe 2 yrs after the game came out that FFT was pvp and you could pick each unit's color.

Also, yeah the gold one super is bright.

Oh yeah, well the sprite sheet should probably be (not in this order except for yellow):

Yellow, White, Blue, Green, Black, Red, Gold, and maybe then Pink lol

Almost like the colors of the rainbow (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet)....
