Okay, here it is. Fate's textures, brightened up once more. I seriously can't do this again without wrecking their quality, so if this is still too dark, sorry Torm.

Brightening them alone doesn't help as they lost lots of contrast now

It must be something with the palette then. I'll try to dump them again with SLADE later.

I should also redo Tekwar, because that's pretty dark as well.

Try using the console command "palconv" on the Fate palette. (Select it so it's being viewed, then open the SLADE console (Ctrl-2) and type "palconv". The effect should be obvious. If it looks like the palette before conversion, but brighter; then it was The Thing To Do(tm). If it looks like a mess of random colors, then the palette was already in 8-bit mode.)

Alternatively you could batch-increase the contrast of all the textures somehow, but then the textures wouldn't be 100% accurate to the originals.

I've done that twice. The effect has left them washed out messes.

@Gez: I originally used XWE to batch-dump the .ART files. I'll try SLADE next time. I'm not sure I feel up to it right now, because after doing that Star Trek pack and Blood 2, I'm kinda pooped as far as texture packs go.

Wow. I just did palconv on Tekwar's palette, and what a difference! I'm going to redo that pack then.

When I get the files off my old PC (where I happen to have Fate tucked away, heh) I'll redo that. So go ahead and just reject this for now, Torm.

Good news, rejected
