preview option not enabled

for some reason my preview button is not highlighted on my menu screen for the palmod program once i extract my data. And also once i click on blink (sel) the program shuts down and closes. This happens on my xp desktop and new vista laptop. Im using the data from the kalisto selfboot ver. Anybody else have this problem

Big3D was this the Palette Changes you were talking about?

…I did custom colors for storm on A1, A2, Storms color will change back to the original color during a light or heavy punch, my storm is black she will flash back to the original on A1 or A2 during the attack, This is crouched, standing, or in the air, but once she lands after a series of lp’s or hp’s the color glitches back to the original until the edited frames are used again. If it’s not, what exactly is causing this? and how do I fix this?

sorry I edited to make more sense than original post.

yeah thats what i was talking about

here this is what i found, i edited HK color
Storm
18 HK
Storm has flashing palettes, for when she does her attacks the (light, medium, dark) refer to what shade of the original color they should be
Medium 01 (01-09) Hair/Costume/Cape
01 (10-15) Face/Cape Lining
Light 02 (01-15) same as above just light tone
Dark 03 (01-15) same as above just dark tone

(22 light, 23 medium, 24 dark) (01-15) same as above - Flashes during moves

im still working on shadow lady… does ne1 have her alternate color, the pink one

[Big3D]

I figured out how to cut and paste between character palettes… that’s nice since I accidentally edited Cable across two files. Thanks for that feature. :tup:

Is there an existing character who has the pink you’re looking for? It’s easiest to see the ARGB for the pink desired and then go from there.

well the way i found best is find the color you are looking for… either on another palette or online… find the RGB for it and put that as the middle color, then copy it across the board for that selection… like dooms cape, then lighten it to the right and darken it to the left to make a smooth transistion

example

(darken and lighten using the luminance option… make it even though

Dooms cape colors

O = original

• = darken

• = lighten

[ + + ][ + ][ O ][ - ][ - - ]

i hope that helps some of ya

Those look really really good.

There’s a very small version of her here–

  and an in-action shot of her here–

  that I found. I don’t know if that’s helpful. How do you get the colors so perfect? Some color picking tool… ?

I need to add the Street Fighter Palette Database to my references. Doesn’t have Marvel characters, though. =\

ok i had this problem too… make sure your dummy file isnt too big… download NullDC it will save you alot of "Coasters"
also make sure you are changing the .iso to .bin when you use the bin2boot

[Mixah]

it’s not the dummy file, trust me. i’ve done several custom soundtracks, so im’ not a noobie at this shit. and i do have nulldc, and the game works fine.

so i manually change the .iso extension to .bin? it seems to be working though just fine as the iso. (bin2boot goes through it’s normal process)

i works best with gifs, because they keep the original colors, cause when they are JPG the tend to do that color blending and it messes up the true color
but i use Photoshop and use the eye drop tool to get the exact color RGb and then copy it onto the program… im using a laptop to make my edits and a regular comp to do research, i have PS loaded up on my comp and take the colors on the laptop

yeah i have completed storms… colossus’ cyclops… except for his HK

but i have not labeled them all yet… gonna release a document that has all the chars and there palettes and stuff… its a big project, bout 10-15 min per chars… on the easy ones

but dont worry i will get out the colossus thing out soon… already got Storms, just a little side tracked and all

[Big3D]

[Big3D]

[mastermind]

I want to get started working on this, but I’ve been busy finishing up projects at work and catching up on How I Met Your Mother season 2. hahah

Anyway, I haven’t seen this thread in a bit. Anyone make Red Venom and White Venom (like in MvC1) yet?

[KnyghtFall]

We’re all too busy editing shit. This is an amazing project. I’m already working on palette swaps for friends:

Pink Cable

Pink/Gold Sentinel

Pink Mags

Etc…

Being able to see what it looks like before wasting a disk is a huge plus. Thank you all for all your hard work, and for being willing to share what you’ve learned and created. Peace.
