Now this is just strange. The Statue of Liberty in RA2 seems to be in a YR palette - that is, the libxxx palettes only. Remaps do not work with these palettes (at least not the red colours I tried) so I decided to convert the SHP into a normal old palette - only to find that to my great amazement there was no colour loss. ALMOST. It seems that the only loss is the green hue on the statue itself... take a look at the Statue of Liberty, now with remaps, in all it's pre-eroded glory!
It has to be BMP BTW, because the colour difference is so subtle that it would not be obvious at all in JPEG.

And they wasted the single allowed extra palette for THAT?

Nice scrub, but that sounds like Westwood for you.

Well, great thing is, this actually ties in well with the mod. The Allies can build a Statue of Liberty as one of their best base defences, but how can it possibly be green-ish if they just built it, eh? Heck, I should have even changed it's name to the more accurate "Statue of Liberty Replica" but that just seems like a dumb idea.
