Please check back regularly for updates. There is usually about one update per month. Please do hit me up if you encounter issues/concerns/confusion. I recommend using the latest non-beta version, but the beta versions usually have new/improved stuff. The PalMod guides can be found here.

Current Version:
Version 1.81: Everything in 1.80 but now with more confidence! Support for 16 PS2 ports of SNK games. Better "Find in New ROM tool", improved previews for SSF2T/SSF2T:NL, support for loading RAW and indexed PNGs directly, other improvements.

The ZIP and the EXE version contain the exact same files. The EXE includes a normal Nullsoft installer if you like that and is smaller. I build the 64bit version irregularly for people stuck using 64bit Windows emulation: hit me up if you particularly need a newer build of it.

Since 1.22 way back in 2008: Added support for about 275 new games (plus their variants - we should now support all major sprite based classic fighting games); built-in mapping palettes for each color format; support for most common palette file types (GPL, PAL, TPL, IMPL, CFPL, PRPL, etc); support for most common replacement preview file types (RAW, PNG, GIF); drag and drop support for everything logical; indexed PNG export so that your PNGs contain the palette data and can be very usefully shared; "Unknown Game" mode for ROM exploration; global color picker (press CTRL+SHIFT+V to have PalMod paste whatever color your mouse cursor is over); Windows 10 Color Picker Power Toy paste support; thousands of new previews; many thousands of more known palettes; high DPI support, 24/32 bit color support; large palette support, support for more color formats, multisprite export, IPS patch output, Unicode, faster and uses less memory, secondary (connected) palette processing for more games (KOF02UM_S, MSH, MSHVSF, MVC, MvC2, SF3, and XMVSF), and important bug fixes especially for MvC2-Dreamcast. Please do not use 1.22: it is old and buggy. You want the latest non-beta version.
