When I take a screen in C&C:95 or RA, it comes out with a screwed up palette. How do I fix this?

I had this problem but got around it. It was so long ago, I can't remember.

I think is was something to do with the colour/res mode you used. I can't remeber it it was in WinME or XP.

I don't have time to write a detailed description right now, but you need XCC Mixer and Paint Shop Pro. Use XCC to extract the color palette from one of the RA1 .mix files (sorry I don't remember which), convert it to PAL (jasc), and paste the screenshot in PSP.

After the image is loaded in PSP, go to the Color menu, hit 'Load Palette', set the option to Error Diffusion dithering (not sure about this one; you an just try both to see which works), and load the palette that XCC converted for you.

It's been a while for me too, and I'm short on time now, so I can't be more detailed. :-\
