So, I can edit NES palettes pretty easily.
FCEUXDSP lets you see the palette and you can just copy that down and search for it.
But none of the SNES emulators have a feature like that.
I used vSNES and it let me edit the colors in a save state, but the colors only stayed for a few seconds.
How do I find the palette in the rom and change it?
I tried the Digisalt tool, but it didn't work for me.

You could try the Palette Finder, it's in the latest public version.

It might or might not work, depending on the game.

When I run that it says it can't find "rt1100.bpl"

Oh yeah, sorry about that - you need the Delphi 10 BPLs as well. Just put them somewhere where Windows can find them (vSNES directory, system directory, ...).

How do I use this tool to find and edit palettes in a rom?
This new version doesn't seem to even let me change the colors temporarily, in a save state.

Does it give some kind of runtime error or exception message?

The palette finder uses the palette viewer to get a list of colors (16 by default). Make sure that the "memory" selection is set to "ROM".

You can't change the ROM with vSNES; you need other tools for that. You could export the palette to a binary 512-byte file though and write the changed colors to the ROM with a hex editor.
