Now I wonder how to explain the 5-bit XRGB system...

Let's start with that the RGB values are from 0-31, and can be packed into 5 bits per element:

xRRRRRGG GGGBBBBB

So even though "white" can be saved as 0xFFFF, it's true value is 0x7FFF due to the one wasted byte. Equally, black is 0x0000, fully blue is 0x001F, fully green is 0x03E0 and fully red is 0x7C00.

For comparison: 0xFFFFFF, 0x000000, 0x0000FF, 0x00FF00, 0xFF0000. Same colors, same order, different system.

As an added bonus, the SNES, SGB and GBC use the same format.

Even though I can still remember pulling a stunt right at the "putting the blame on VCR" line on the radio, which was VERY very cool, I'll have to agree with Ziff.

I don't understand much of it either, but here's what you should do.

In Visualboy Advance, there's a Palette Viewer. It shows two matrices of colors. The left one is for all the currently used background colors, which you intend to change. The right one is for the sprites and is irrelevant now. Clicking on a color gives you that color's 15-bit value like I explained earlier.

Note how specific colors are found all over this matrix. Say you want to edit a specific color, or strip of them, you'd prolly search for that specific green color. But it's used so often, you'll get multiple results!

So, get a note pad and write down all values for the color strip you want to edit. That's 16 colors, 2 bytes each.

Like Totakeke tried to explain, the values are byteswapped. What is shown as 0x7FFF is stored in the ROM file as 0xFF7F, not unlike pointers which are equally swapped around. So, on another line on the note pad, write a byteswapped version of the strip you just noted.

Say you have the values 0000, 003E, 4000, 430F etc noted, the second line would be 0000, 3E00, 0040, 0F43. See it now?

Now open up your hex editor and do a hex search for the values you just wrote down. The more precise your query, in other words the more subsequent color values you search for, the higher your chance of finding either NOTHING at all, which means you fucked up in an earlier step, or ONE HIT, maybe two or three depending on what colors you are actually looking for.

You'll need replacement colors now. You can either lift them from the Pallete Viewer if the color you want is seen elsewhere, or google for some old Super Nintendo color calculator thingy, knowing that the format hasn't changed one bit.

Remember: if the replacement color doesn't work out and you get what seems like garbage, swap the bytes around again.

Did that help?

Edit: removed layout for clarity

Because 90% of 'em don't bother searching for the answer to their question. Fifty bucks say the answer's in the big sticky thread.

The n00b forum's not that much of an issue, check ssjsaiyan just below for a good example. He did visit the n00b forum and still sucks monkey balls.

I keep forgetting that. It's mostly simple dividing and multiplying though. Just don't know by what factor.

Edit: quick calculations in Calc show that 31 * 8.2 = 254.2. If you Int() that, you're close.
