Color ID Graphics

[Ben]

I am wondering if it is possible to use a graphics editor or something like that to change a colors ID. For example, in KaM, Blacks color ID is 3. Is it at all possible for me to change ID 3 from black to blue? Any help here would be greatly appreaciated.

I don't think its possible with the graphics editor, you'd need to hack the palette. However, it would cause color corruption in other graphics so it isn't really feasible.

Well I was actually thinking to change the really high ID numbers (the ones around 230). These colors "Pulse" and I never see them (at least I don't think I do) in the game. If I could change these so the didn't pulse that would be great. Are there any non-pulseing colors in the game?

EDIT:

I was going to delfete this post (It was submitted twice) but someone posted before I could, and you can only delete the last post in the thred it seems . Well I just wanted to change it so it looks better

I really don't know anything about the color pusing thing. I have no knowlege about the KaM code thing so I wouldn't know...

I never understood that pulsating colour problem, if you have more information on it, please share

I think the pulsating colours are used in the game. (otherwise why would they make them?) For example, the blue outline used for building/road placement. It seems to pulse between white and blue. Check it out.
Possibly this has something to do with the water/swamp animation by colour changing?

Thanks Lewin, I think you are right. I had a feeling that I was seeing the pulsating colors but I couldn't think where.
