color sprites question

[vaizard84]

Well i managed to edit a lot of sprites in the game, but i noticed if i use a custom sprite on a job class that has different colors in battle and the custom sprite that i use, lets say for example cloud, only has one color, they appear as just black sprites. is there any fix to this?

Easily fixable. All you have to do is add new palettes (for sprite and portrait). The palette table consists of 256 colours (16 rows) the 1st to 8th rows are the sprites palettes, the 9th to 16th rows are for the portrait palettes. To fix the black sprite thing, just add palettes by either copying the 1st row of palettes and pasting them in 2nd, 3rd etc rows or making new palettes in the rows.

(it would be easier to explain if i knew what program you were using to edit sprites with)

Hope that helps.

oh i meant like paint, graphics gale, gimp or photoshop. a program like those will make it possible to edit palettes.

ok well then, go into the image tab -> mode -> colour table. then you will be able to see the palette. 1st row is sprite palette, 9th row is portrait.
