I've gotten used to using palette index 247 (the cyan color, #00FFFF in HTML terms) as transparent color and guess for the first time I imported an image that has color 251 (#FF00FF) and was surprised that it turned into transparent as well! Please don't tell me to use Slade as I haven't gotten it to run on my ancient computer and I'm (hopefully) nearing the end of building my resource wad and would just like to import a few images with color 251. Can this be done/fixed in XWE or some other program besides Slade? And I'd like to know WHY two transparent colors? Couldn't find anything in quick googling. I attached an image of the colors.
Hopefully I haven't got holes in my other images. Got over 30MB of vanilla compatible textures in my wad and only now noticed this.
edit: Also noticed that the color in question is missing in XWE's palette remap feature. Is this just XWE stupidity or is there something about the color? (I mean, would the color work in other softs and in vanilla Doom?)
