Phew. Finally! ^_^

How do I properly extract the CLUT and figure out the hex address where it really begins, ends, etc.?

I tried selecting that stuff with TM, but TM keeps automatically selecting extra stuff (ex: that black stuff on the top, or some of the red and green lines on the bottom).

I thought that the color could be restored with some bit-shifting. Tongue

With manually I mean "making an in-game screenshot of the texture, opening it in PSP, selecting the color picker, writing down each pixel's color and building a new palette from that".
Did anybody read what I wrote a few messages above? Roll Eyes Those screenshots can't be used for locating actual cluts since colours are completely fucked up. Just create a vram dump (you can get it from an ePSXe savestate or using pSX for a direct dump), open it using this tool, then you can start looking for the actual values and use them for loading a texture with the correct colours.

How do I use that program to determine values? The readme was not in my native language (English). Sad Right now I am trying to figure out the exact hex addresses where the CLUT begins and ends in the savestate or WALL.PSX.

It's great that I finally found the palette, but I am having trouble trying to figure out the exact hex address where it begins and ends with Tile Molester.

Sorry to bump this up again, but I just ran into something strange.

I’m still trying to figure out the exact hex address where the CLUT begins in WALL.PSX. So I loaded WALL.PSX into TM, and when I scroll down enough, I start seeing the CLUT at around 178000:



However, when I use TM’s “Go To…” option to jump to the hex address 178001, the CLUT looks weird all of a sudden:



What does this mean? Does the CLUT really begin at 178000, 178001, or some other address? I also noticed that there are some pixels above the “178000” line.

Moreover, in my VRAM snap the CLUT has the dimensions of 64 x 286. Does this mean the CLUT is 18304 bytes (64*286=18304)?
