In fighter factory 3, when you look at the sprites, and you move the sliding bar left and right, does the palette change or stay the same number?

It is changed to palette 195,0. Normally it is selected on palette 1,1 , right. So I have set the sprite palette to 1,1.
But the problem is when I select color other than color 1 on mugen, the animation sprite is still using color 1.

When viewing the sprite(s) that use palette 195,0, When you slide the palette bar over to palette 1,1, Do the colors look normal?

by the way, make sure to use the edit button on your posts instead of making a second post. Some spots it's ok, but that's kinda rare. Double and Triple posting arent usually allowed.

Make a back up of you character. Then

Hit this button while looking at the sprite with the palette on 1,1.
Then choose to apply to the group.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
If everything's good it should work normal in game.

Weird, after pressed that button on my fighter factory the dialog window is different. There isn't select by group. Only select sprites item. I have tried to select the sprites by blocking them but the result is still same as I mentioned on my first post.
When I select other color beside color 1 on mugen, the color is still on color 1 on that animation sprites.

I am using fighter factory version 3.5.4.

Now? The top says Studio. Im using 3.0.2000.2013

One way to test if the change took root is to slide the palette bar left and right again. If it switches to palette 1,1, it should work in game.

One thing about palettes in Fighter Factory is it... it doesnt like KNOW it's changed it. You need to save and reopen the character after making some palette changes. It's hard to explain, but I've ripped out my hair messing with palettes. I'm almost superstitious when it comes to working with palettes.

Another thing is, those blues all seem to be 43,86,172. Make sure your color separation isn't messing up. Switch from 1,1 to 1,2 and see if the changes are correct.

If I slide the palette to like 1,2 or 1,3 its color is still correct. The problem is when on mugen, its sprite animation color doesn't use selected color based on button I pressed. But the weird thing is standing animation sprite color is correct.
I have compared standing sprite palette with normal attack sprite palette but I can't find any differences on them. It is very weird. :(

Seems like it's not being saved properly. What you want to do is use Sprites > Save As, and name it something completely different. Make a new file of the sprites. Close FF3 and go into My Computer and go to the folder. Rename the original sff file and rename the new file to the name the def is looking for.
Reopen the char in FF3 and make sure the changes are still there.

I am having a similar issue. After I added pallete .acts to the character sucessfully, now my character switches to default palette color only during some animations.
