How to edit/add tiles to the Jyotyu tileset without breaking the colors.
Step 1: As an example we're going to add the NSMBWii Arrows. ![]() You should make the picture 256×48 pixels from the get-go. ![]() Step 2: We're going to replace one of the 4 jyotyu ncl. You should choose the ncl that has the least chance of giving an error because of repeated colors. This time we're going to use the jyotyu_B. ![]() Step 3: Extract the ncl, you'll need the backup because we're going to re-insert it later. Replace the ncl with this one: d_2d_A_J_jyotyu_B_ncl(1121).bin What is this ? Basically it gives the second palette 256 unique colors (we're going to name it the Super Palette ![]() Step 4: Extract the image colored with the Super Palette by clicking "Export this bitmap", again you're going to need it. ![]() Step 5: Now choose which palette to use with the NSMBWii Arrows, for this tutorial we're going to use the palette 0 (if you want to import on palette 1, Super Palette should be palette 0 then). Step 6: Switch to your Super Palette and click "Export this bitmap". ![]() Step 7: From there open both images you extracted with Photoshop, Gimp, etc. Step 8: Take care of the crossed parts and the flagpole base first and then copy the layer and save. ![]() Step 9: Import you fresh new image with the Super Palette by clicking "Import this bitmap with existing palette". ![]() Step 10: Click "Save All" and close the window. Step 11: Remember the ncl you extracted in Step 3 ? Now it is the time to reinsert it. Look at the results: ![]() ![]() If there is a mistake on the coloring, it will be only on the new tiles, in that case you can either: _fix the few faulty pixels _or try the same operation but with another jyotyu ncl instead. Now enjoy your "flawless" Jyotyu tileset ![]() Notes: Q: Now what if I want to use the Super Palette with other jyotyu ncl? A: I won't give the full answer, what I will tell is that LZ Decompress is going to come handy. Also, don't ever extend Jyotyu available space. While original tiles work fine, supernumerary tiles will look like a scrambled mess in-game. Sorry Thierry but your Extended Jyotyu, while well thought, ultimately fell short ![]() |

Just to be sure, does this tactic also work on other connected ncl files like the Kuribo and the Nokoko files? Besides this question just saying that you've made a very use full tutorial. Thanks a lot. ![]() New Super Holiday Bros - Mario Kart GTA San Andreas |

It should work the same, except that the I_enemy ncls have 4 palettes instead of 2, so you have to adapt the Super Palette accordingly, but yes it should work.
And no problem, my pleasure ![]() |
