Hello,
I'm a beginner with all this stuff so I'm a bit confused about some things:
1. What for is defining a pallete (int my case I declared PALLETE pal) in
function load_bitmap(bmp, pal) needed? And after that calling the
set_pallete(pal) function? If I write those statements, the background color
will be magenta and all the indexes of colors are mixed (eg. before color
no. 1 was blue, no. 4 was red...) Anyone can explain these things to me? (I
haven't found such explanations in any tutorial...)
Thanks for help,
Matej
