R.o.Arkania / DSA: wrong colours

R.o.A. / DSA displays wrong colours (shades of green) in the Amiga version:


Examples:

Amiga version


PC version:



Green or neon green simply don´t fit.







PC version:

Do you WHDload coders think it is possible to fix this gfx issue?

This would be absolutely brilliant!
Thanks in advance.

And also check out this pic:

Comparison DOS: https://www.mobygames.com/images/sho...t-you-shop.png




Would help if we could edit the pics manually.
This won´t help with sprites (e.g. dwarf), though.


So, as far as I know, these pics are having wrong colours (mainly misplaced shades of green):

Maybe we can extract all pics and double-check them!

Problem is PC version have VGA palette (256 colors), which is reduced in Amiga version to 32. It's probably same color as used e.g. for HP so changing it change all other instances of using this color.

It looks more like a wrong palette.
All graphics are converted with lots of accuracy and screen 15 proves that there is something wrong palette-wise imo.

And take the character generation screen for example:
Even though the original VGA sky and cloths colour isn´t particular great, the Amiga choice doesn´t make sense at all.

I´m just wondering why attic didn´t fix it...

Plus: everytime a colour seems out of place it´s a shade of green.

Maybe you can help me extracting the the .data files?

Each disk contains a .data file that includes pics, sounds, music and code.

Is it possible to decompile these files and get access to gfx files and so on?
