@Gregor how about this? Hopefully @NihalRahman123 doesn't mind me doing this, I'll take it down on request. I don't need any credit for it myself if someone is to use it in a wad of their own.

Pain reduces contrast, pickups increase brightness, radsuit increases contrast (and should probably be brighter but I was having a hard time coming up with something visually distinct).

I dont mind. :D

Next up: Luminous

 

Is there a download link for this one? I have a closed CP that might be able to make use of this.

Doomcity looks great with the CGA Pallete, especially the blue sky:

Love love love the new palettes! CGA M4P0 reminds me of DBP01/DBP46, which is themed after a way-old Apogee game that actually ran in M4P0 CGA. So, I decided to put the two together...

Not finished, Luminous is surprisingly difficult to do without reindexing sprites, which i dont plan to do. Altho it is mostly done. Unless you want the W.I.P one intitially, in that case DM

[NihalRahman123]

Gonna be making a Augur Zenith style japanese cyberpunk themed palette

Augur zeniths palette works normally quite well with base doom anyways, but i will do it like my own.

[NihalRahman123]

The first wad specific palette i am making, the Augur Zenith 90's anime palette

This palette is inspired by the look of 90s anime. oldschool anime was actually captured in film back in those days, so the end product contained film colors. in this palette i am doing some film emulation and color choices from anime references. This is about as close as i can get to achieve that look using palettes.



As a refresher, this is how Augur zenith looks like with its own palette

Oh that's absolutely gorgeous! I'm super excited to see it released.

It'd be interesting to see people make more pallets to accompany specific wads that don't already have one. Like Final Doomer but for palletes, I guess.

I like this idea, any wads come in mind? most of my fav ones already have their own palettes.

[DreadWanderer]

Really nice work. Some of them are a bit heavy on the eyes but I can probably get used to them. I've become interested in pallette work recently and this encourages me to do some experiments of my own!

[NihalRahman123]

My PC has been crashing on me, i think its giving up. All of this will have to be held up for now :(

 

Ill be back as soon as my PC is healthy

[indigotyrian]

That really sucks to hear. :c Hoping for a speedy fix on your machine, and that the issue isn't too severe.

Most likely an SSD issue, unfortunately, while I was working on my palette master file it crashed and corrupted the file, while I did have every palette exported and saved seperately, all the source files are gone, meaning i cant update them anymore, I have to make them from scratch *again*.

Not the biggest issue in the world but sucks. Ill try to upload the Augur Zenith thing atleast

[Mr Masker]

Sounds like quite the headache. Hope the fixing process goes smoothly for you.

[NihalRahman123]

Getting it fixed soon, just a corrupted ram stick. Will be back in action shorty in the coming weeks

[indigotyrian]

I feel a bit like a jerk to put in a request/make a suggestion while you're waiting on parts to repair your machine, but I'd really like to see a Synthwave/"Bisexual Lighting"-esque palette. Big focus on saturated neon pinks and cyans, with sharp greens and dusky purples for contrast. On your own time, of course! I'm patient.

Gotta thank you for these great palettes. I've been working up a project recently and might use one of these for a little extra visual flair (you'll of course be credited if I do finish and release it).

[JXC]

Can you do a palette where all of the shades of red become shades of pink so enemies bleed pink Danganronpa blood?

I've taken the liberty of doing this, see attached archive. Not sure if it's what you're looking for, but it does have quite a lot of shades of pink.

Not as pink as I hoped, but thanks. Maybe I'll make my own palette in Slade.

Sounds easy enough, tho maybe not sophisticated enough for me to upload, we will see

i need approx 1 more week to fix my stuff, then ill be back at it :D

You know how red (for example blood floor or the guts/tentacles or stretched skin) fades to brown in dark areas? I may be the only one but i love that effect. Would it be possible to have all colours fade to brown like that? 

[Karnasis]

It would be really cool to have a jungle palette for Plutonia or Urania, I really wish there was a visual representation to show how warm the place would be, especially with the hellspawn going around.

This looks so good that i want to request, if possible, a sequel to this. This is again a very specific look, but early CGI.

 

You remember those boxarts from Super Mario 64, right? If not, see here: https://www.reddit.com/r/vintagecgi/

 

Those colors are very bright, but also very specific. I wonder if that can be meshed well with Doom.

 

In addition, Technicolor. Its full color, but with a subtle filter to make it look oldskool. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technicolor

I swear to god I did, the screenshot was maybe using the old version without it

my bad in that case :p

Fam, I love the palettes but the yellow skull does still show as magenta. Also the locked door marker. The key card is fine, though. It's worth either changing or mentioning it in the short description, mappers beware.

edit: this is regarding M4P1

vintage CGI is interesting, because its is just a full color palette with no restrictions, but like i get what you mean, this is a *iffy* one

you are referring to technicolor process 4 which I can 100% do. technicolor process 2/3 is the one that is just teal and orange, which i have done before!


im also busy with a few IRL obligations, but i will 100% return to making palettes very soon. i am keeping note of all these requests

[Ulukai]

Good job. Nice palettes for playing Doom with alternative styles.

What do you think about a neon color style palette?

 

 

It may look a bit like the proposal that indigotyrian made, with blue, pink and purple neon colors, but I would like to see an alternative with this electrical tone but including some yellow/orange colors.
