Apple-II_MiSTer/Palettes

Color palettes for Apple II

Each file contains 16 colors in RGBA format.

Palettes have been split in two folders:

• Realistic

Palettes attempting to replicate either exact standard Apple II colors, or variations from other computers of the era (e.g. NTSC for C64 at different settings)

• Fantasy

These do not necessarly follow standard colors or any existing computer; they will give your display a different feel and can fit some games or specific esthetics very well.

Customizing palettes

An a2p file can be created or edited with a hex editor such as HxD.

Each color is defined as four bytes (R,G,B and 00 to separate), and they must be ordered as follows:

0. Black (Hi-Res color 0 and 3)
1. Magenta
2. Dark Blue
3. Purple (Hi-Res color 2)
4. Dark Green
5. Gray 1 (darker)
6. Medium Blue (Hi-Res color 6)
7. Light Blue
8. Brown
9. Orange (Hi-Res color 5)
10. Gray 2 (identical or lighter than Gray 1)
11. Pink
12. Green (Hi-Res color 1)
13. Yellow
14. Aquamarine
15. Black (Hi-Res color 4 and 7)

The palette can be loaded from the FPGA core at any time via OSD option.
