When you use the function to create and save an image it asks you lots of things. Answering correct every time it's very important!

Yes, forum is also for help... but we are not mind-readers, so we can't know what steps you did if you don't tell us.

There is no need to entirely quote the previous post in a thread...

I showed and explained every mistake you did in order to give you full information and hints on what to do.

The fact that the image is missing its IMAGE HEADER, again, shouldn't happen, so, again, if this is a BUG in CH you should explan step by step what you are doing.

Please guys, where are gentlemen here, so maintain manners!
And try to quote only what's needed to understand an answer.

An Image is between 2 fields: "Image Header / Image Frame Start" and "Image Ending / Image Frame End".
Convers needs to know where is this first byte of this "Image Frame End" in order to be able to show that image. This byte is shown as Offset4Main in CH.

Hello, does anyone know how custom palettes work in covers?
I know that at address [image header] + 12 there is a pointer to space in memory where info about palette is.
There are 12 bytes where first 4 bytes are palette size (up to 0x000000FF i guess) then there is one byte zero (0x00000000) or one (0x01000000) but I don't know what it does and then the last 4 bytes are palette address.
Colors in palette are saved also as 4 bytes where first byte is zero and then is color in BGR format.
I have generated a palette from image to have image with better colors but it does not seem to work as either the image does not show up at all (there is just convers background) or the colors are off (not used from the palette I created) like on the picture.
Is it even possible to create an image with custom colors?

Does it work as expected in Convers Hacker?
Did you generated the image and its BGR data with CH or manually?
How did you extracted / generated / created the palette you want to use?
