Custom flag colors not working

(1/3) > >>

NEONDragon:
Hey folks,

I've been working on a flag of my own, but they just don't work. I have been following a couple of detailed tutorials, using GIMP and mtPaint, as well as worms info's personal tutorial about making the flags, but it just refuses to work.

The colors show up like a complete mess, or shows entirely different color. I really don't get it. Can you help me, please?
Here are the flags. The Omega symbol is supposed to be purple, but shows red in-game. And the Skynet flag is just a plain mess.

I made a guide for this on Steam

NEONDragon:
I followed that, as I mentioned above. It didn't work for me. I followed every step of it.

h3oCharles:
Skynet doesn't have enough colors
Omega seems fine for me

HHC:
Insofar as the pink one goes.. WA seems to recognize only a particular set of colours. Particularly on the purple and cyan-side of things there isn't much to go with.
If you want it to be more purple, make it a lighter shade of purple and see if that does the trick.

Skynet shows up as a mess in my game as well.
Not sure how to fix it as I don't have PSP installed, which I used to use to make worms flags.

Have you tried creating a new plain BMP-image and copying the skynet one into it?  :-[

Also, just a tip in general, it's sometimes good to pixel-edit the image. The supersmall size makes images hard to make out. Sometimes I emphasize aspects to make them stand out better (i.e. make blood drops bigger and brighter red), same could be helpful with the skynet one (less stripes / bigger ones, and make the red brighter)... who knows, this may even fix the visual bug.
