Change palette for loaded bmp....
Post by James on Feb 3rd, 2012, 2:43pm

I think it would be interesting if you could:

Loadbmp "scenery", "256color.bmp"

#main.box, "drawbmp scenery 0 0"

Changepal "scenery", "palette.bmp"

#main.box, "drawbmp scenery 0 0"

It will then draw the same bitmap again, but with the new palette!

Interesting thought. I even tried to write some code to do it, but I can't make it work. I am wondering if LOADBMP (in LBB at least) is not preserving the palette, but converting it to a 'true color' bitmap. In that case there would be no palette left to modify, sadly.
