For those wishing to do pseudo art design for the MD or SMS.
Posted: Thu Jan 09, 2014 12:54 am
The standard MD specs are (I believe) as so:
320*224 screen,
15 colours for background 1, 15(+BGColour) colours for background 0,
15 colours for Sprite palette 0 and 15 colours for sprite palette 1.
These come from a 9-bit (512 colour) palette. Each channel (R,G and B) has 3bits, or 8 levels including off. The equivalent values for these in a simple image editing program would be:
000, 036, 072, 108, 144, 180, 216 and 255 or (in hex):
00, 24, 48, 6C, 90, B4, D7 and FF
Standard SMS specs:
256*192
BG palette consists of 15(+BGColour) colours
Sprite palette consists of 15 colours
6-bit (64 colours) palette. Each channel (R,G and B) has 2 bits, or 4 levels including off:
000, 085, 170, and 255, or (in hex):
00, 55, AA and FF\
