Is it posible to convert Hexen sprites into Heretic pallete with that ease?
Yes. Any game to any other game. Data can come from IWADs or PWADs.
What you do is first select the project that is to be the final result. IOW, in this case select HERETIC.PRJ. That determines the destination palette.
Then open the file containing graphics that you want to convert. The tools asks you what game the original graphics came from. So in this case you say HEXEN.
This same Tool (F7 - DeePsea graphics editor) can also automatically export all the SPRITES into 1 file from any Game (or textures or flats).
In case there are other PWADs loaded, "Close All Files" before you Open the PWAD with the graphics to convert. This is to make sure you are picking up just the file you are interested in, otherwise it does all the PWADs loaded.
Some conversions may have a few "blue" issues - just depends on the combination selected, since any game converts to any other game and some game palettes have colors that do not exist in the other game. These can be solved with some adjustments in color options, but this gets to be a bit of an art. Probably easier to adjust the few that may be that way manually:)
You do this, by exporting the problem image as a BMP, use PSP, load the right palette and tinker away. Then just merge it back in (F7-Merge), by deleting the original image, click the image to insert after and then save in the Merge tool. Should make it so a deletion keeps the original location - working on some other stuff there anyway, so I hope I remember:)
