Now rename it to "Doom.gpl". Your Gimp Doom Palette is finished, and ready to be used and modified. Now open The Gimp. Dont start a new image. We dont need to do that now. No, from the menus, go to "Windows > Dialogs > Palettes". That will open the Palettes Dialog. Select the "Doom" item from the list, and double click over the small image. Now you can edit each color from the palette. Use double click to edit an item. When you finish the modifications, save the palette before close it. Now create a new image ("File > New"). Create any size image. Thats not important. Now draw a couple of lines on the blank canvas. Then, go to "Image > Mode > Indexed". On the new window you will have to choose the palette. Choose "Custom Palette" and select the Doom palette you have just modified. Now, uncheck the checkbox with the text "Delete unused colors from the final palette". This is important. If you dont do this, your palette will not work. Finaly, save and close that image as a BMP image. Next, we will create the palette for Doom itself, and we can preview it. Execute Inkworks program. Dont get scared for all those letters and MsDos like window. We are not going to use them all now. On the menu (you can use mouse), go to "File > Import Base Palette". You will get a dialog. On that dialog, find the BMP draw you created with The Gimp. The, press OK button. If all is ok, then your palette should be loaded onto Inkworks. You can preview it before importing to Doom. You can click on any "Preview" button. Press Scape to exit preview. If you like how your custom palette looks, then you can export it to a WAD. Before exporting, you have to create a PWAD, so you can save it. Dont export the palette to an IWAD, or you will overwrite the original Doom palette. To create a PWAD, you can use any Lump editor. You dont have to create a lump. A PWAD with a only Colormap and Palette, is valid. Now return to Inkworks, and go menu "File > Export to Wad". On the new dialog, select the recently created PWAD. Close Inkworks, and open the PWAD. You will see there two files: "Colormap" and "Playpal". To test the palette in-game, simply add the PWAD to the command line parameters. Here goes a sample on a modified palette. I made all palette colors to look brownish, the blue colors as red, and gave a bit more brightness to the original red colors, making blood and red eyes to look a bit more terrifying: [img:s90qavzk]http://xs435.xs.to/xs435/09036/playpal432.png.xs.jpg[/img:s90qavzk] [color=#40FFFF:s90qavzk][Next Day: Modifying the fading effects][/color:s90qavzk]
