I'm unsure how to color index, and even if I do figure out I have 377 images to index! is there an easy way to do that?

It can easily be done in PS. Save your optimized palette as an act. Record an action where you apply the .act to a new sprite. Then play that action on all sprites in a particular folder
Always make sure you never copy over your original images.If you're doing it for a character, import the sprites using Fighter Factory 3 and force the palette. It wont do a super controlled process that photoshop will do. But unless you really KNOW how to do it in photoshop, you'll get the same results.What you'll want to do is open up FF3, and import a sprite into a new project. FF3 already has the new character active so just open the sprite. It wont have an index. So it's fine. Then open the other 376 sprites and force it to use the palette FF3 just made for your first image. Otherwise FF3 may make 377 different palettes.

I used to do it with irfanview back in the day Uhhh...where would I get that? the websites I find for it seem to be malicious to Chrome Posted: May 05, 2015, 03:07:08 amThanks to you guys I figured it out. Now Lopunny should be a lot easier to make and future creations should also be easier. thanks!
