How does one go about making a clut resources? So far I have already a pict file ready to be put in a plug-in.

Thanks for anyone who can help me out

Hmm maybe I'm too vague on my question. Already I know how to make that part, but the real question is how to take the colors of the pict file you have and put it in a clut resource. That's what I'm really looking for.

I believe there's a way that you can do it in Photoshop, but I don't remember what it is.

If you happen accross the link to Pontus' website, he had a tutorial on how to use the clut resource. The link I have is outdated, so I'm afraid I can't help you out other than that. Perhaps someone else has it, though.

Pontus' EV site - and his two clut tutorial pages - can be accessed here: (url="http://"http://members.chello.se/warlordpontus/ev/")http://members.chell...rlordpontus/ev/(/url)

Ok, so far I just learned that, now what about for splash titles and stuff, and does the clut resource apply to other graphic elements of the game as well?

Oh wait, sorry, nevermind what I just said.

Apparently Im still f***ing stuck with the stupid splash screen. I have a pict resource file, and I have a clut file that I exported from Photoshop. Now what? How do I get the stupid exported clut file thingy to interact with ResEdit? I already know how to import the picture itself into the plug-in but the god darn friggin clut is the problem, if I open it directly via ResEdit, it reads it empty. And please don't refer me to any other post topic or Ponta's whatchamacallit, I've been there and still I haven't got the anwswer. And to make it easier to get the answer, please don't reply by saying "Oh I haven't figure that out yet" that doesn't help me find the answer I need.

I know UE Patriot has managed to get the clut working for the ROTUE plug-in. So How do I stick the exported Photoshop clut into the plug-in itself?
