I see I'm slowly but surely turning into a beggar, but I can't help it. This is my last help request, so it's okay.

Anyway, I came across a tileset with a nice background, which looks ugly when textured both on 8bit and 16 bit. I tried looking at a textured background article on j2o and tinkered some time with it, but it just looked even uglier.

So, the reason I'm here is to politely ask one community member with enough free time to fix this tileset's background for me, because as it is the textured background looks like this:

So yeah. I would be grateful if someone could get rid of the ugly green clouds.

The tileset can be downloaded from here:

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hmm, maybe colors of the background aren't on right place in palette's ID? :P I had once the same problem, and swapped some color's IDs and fixed it.

I tried doing that but all it did when I compiled the tileset is change the green to brown which looks even uglier.

What program(s) are you using to implement the palette?

Edit: Oh well, actually that's not really important. I found out that your background uses colors 103, 104 and 105 of the palette. Just change it somehow.

Are you sure they are 103, 104 and 105? They appear to look normal, unlike the green and brown colours next to them. Look: (it is the same on Paint Shop Pro)

But the background shouldn't use them. It should use two concrete rows of the palette.

Sir a-kind-of-cheese also known as Ementaler's advice helped me a lot, and I managed to create an identical looking tileset by simply swapping those three palette entries with the three gray palette entries further down.

Thanks a lot for the advice, all of you! It was much appreciated. Also, thanks anyway to Dodges, who was late to the party but still had some advice.
