Graphics Gale is a free piece of software that lets you easily create 'indexed' images. So let's get a program called Graphics Gale and talk a bit more about indexed images: Many other converters require an indexed image as input. (More details about errors in the readme, but feel free to ask about anything you think should work, but doesn't.) It'll figure out your colors and give you a ROM/CHR in a folder next to the image, or report errors. Save your image as a PNG (or PNG sequence), and then just drag the first frame onto the program.

The same CHR file can be displayed using different four color palettes, which will change how it is displayed. It is (usually) divided into 8x8 pixel sections called 'tiles'.Įach of the four numbers corresponds to an entry in a palette. (One has white, the other has green for entry one.)Ī pixel in an NES CHR file can be one of four numbers. It is the same image, painted with a different palette. This is how the tops of the bushes in Super Mario Bros. And you can change the palette (which affects how the image is displayed or painted) without changing the image itself. But if we changed palette entry 1 to another color like yellow, all the 1 areas in the image would then need to be painted yellow.īecause the indexed image contains no color on its own, it needs a palette to display properly. In the example above, 1 is red in the palette. It's a bit like paint by numbers:Īll the 1s are meant to be the same color, all the 2s are meant to be the same color, etc. CHR is an 'indexed' format, meaning that rather than storing what color every pixel is, it just stores a number for every pixel.
