User blog:PlasmoidThunder/Palette Galleries

I would've made a "MUGEN Database:Palette Galleries" page, but I wanted you lot to comment on it if you don't understand or whatever :)

I'm using FFU (Fighter Factory Ultimate) for this, so if you have anything other than FFU, let me know and I'll figure it out :P

You open FFU and open up your desired character; I'll be using Rotom.

Go to the "Sprites" tab and make sure that the character is on the 0, 0 sprite (first frame of idle animation). Then go to the "Palettes" tab so we can begin the extracting process!

Once on the Palettes tab, you should see something similar to this (as well as all of the buttons, etc. which are not used in this tutorial):



Take a Printscreen (PrtScr) and paste it into an image editing program like Photoshop (if you don't have that, use Gimp, because it's free). DON'T USE PAINT, AS IT DOESN'T HAVE TRANSPARENCY!!!

Use the Magic Wand tool (or whatever allows you to make the background transparent) and save it as a .png, but call it whatever you want (best to name it something related to the character, and not just Spanglyweff.png, unless the character is called Spanglyweff; I generally name the palettes "Nameofcharacterpalx", with "x" being the palette number).

Your result should be something like this:



Think you're done? Nope (unless the character only has one palette). You have to repeat the above process with all the palettes!

Once you've tired yourself out with all this work, you use Special:MultipleUpload to upload all of your wonderful palettes! Add your palettes into your desired character article under the Palette Gallery section in the order of 1-12.

Publish the article.

Done.

Any questions?
