Palette 6 - ppml - 11-09-2011

There is some inconvenience in using the palette six??
I saw only used for fire in ff3usme
Do not change anything else apart from the fire?

The game can only handle palettes from 0 to 5 through normal means. Palettes starting at 6 need to be handled differently using the event command 60 XX YY.

I'm not s spriter, so others can give a better opinion on the question.

Palette 6 is reserved for objects like the flame NPC, the crane object like the one in zozo, the switch object, things like that. Using palette 6 on a character or NPC works fine, it's just that the playable character's (PC's) sprite color will get all messed up and look horrible in the character select and save menus, not to mention a bunch of maps that use an entrance event to change an objects palettes. So far to my knowledge, there is no way to avoid it from happening, although like anything else, I'm sure there's a way.

So for instance, if you bring a PC using palette 6 into Zozo, without editing or removing the entrance event for the map, the character's palette shares that of the crane, because the entrance event is telling the game to change all objects with palette 6 to another palette outside of 0-7. It's kind of used as a placeholder palette in a sense. That might not be 100% correct, but that's what I finally decided is going on.

Also you would of course need to recolor all objects using palette 6, ideally to another similar palette with a few reds and orange/yellow.

I mean to change the color for the replacement by NPC in the Palette FF6LE 6 and it works, but do not know if this affects other things ...

I actually worked it out in a way that everything works

I must warn you that it is very time consuming
