What do you MEAN by that? It wont show when you seach for it? Or will it not let you open it? If the latter, what does it say? You make no sense, Im not there to see it you know >_>

When I browse the folder that the ROM is in, it won't show up, and when I tired searching for it by copying the name of the ROM, it says that it doesn't exists.

One time, 4 people called Everybody, Nobody, Anybody, & Somebody were faced with a problem.  It affected Everybody and Anybody could have solved it, but Nobody did anything about it.  Eventually, Somebody got upset and tried to convice Everybody that there was a serious problem.  But Nobody listened and after a while Everybody was affected. Soon after, Somebody asked if Anybody was going to do something about the issue, but again, Nobody cared and Everybody lost something dear to them.  The final time the the problem occured, Somebody got really mad and did the thing that Anybody could have done but Nobody actually did, even though it affected Everybody.

Open the .GBA file just like you do with VBA when you click 'Open' From the File Menu. Nothing should change graphcially, excluding what Serenade said about the name. Nothing will come up until you tell it to.
I run a Mass Effect 3 modding site named ME3Tweaks.com that details how to mod ME3 as well as showcasing mods for the multiplayer aspect of the game. I also developed a mod manager utility as well as an online mod creation tool named ModMaker.

That's just the way they are. Don't mess with them. Sometime's you will get a Message saying that it is not good to replace the Palette. Be carefull if you decied too! :LOL:

@ Blazedout: You do that! I can't wait to see some re-colored crap! :D

When im editing the panels, It isnt working properly. It never shows the result of the colors i want. Is there something I should be doing ? I got the sprite the color i wanted but the panel's colors remained the same (this is for mmbn5ToC).

Edit : Nevermind.. I found the cause of it. I had to encounter a new battle inorder for the stage edits to appear. Will post link on it later.

Edits again.. : Here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ov-dpGp2m8s

Thanks! Ah! That just happens sometimes. Either you ARE wrong, or it has something to do with the fact you loaded you VBA first, then the APE on the Rom.
Nice colors BTW! Black Megaman FTW! :LOL:

@ Megarock: What do you mean? A purplish fill of a color? Got a pic?

I am attempting to load the battlefield palette. I have already successfully found palettes (and bookmarked them). But jumping to offsets don't seem to work.

You can't seem to jump to ANY offsets? That's werid. Well, there in your pic, those ones that have a purplish fill-in, are wrong. Either those colors are wrong, or they just dont appear. Try swaping them, if that don't work, I don't know what to tell you. I don't really have many problems Palette Editing.

BTW, make sure you useing the correct offsets for the correct game.

Yeah for a while I wasn't but even that didn't work. So I am to swap all the incorrect colors for the right ones? Then what are the random colors that were brought up?

Dunno. But maybe try downloading APE agian? Jeez, sorry Im not that much help, but like I said, I dont have many problems ;)

And MAKE SURE, that you open the rom you want to edit with APE before opening it with VBA. Sometimes, werid things will happen. Like says there is no palette when you goto search for one even though you have all the Colors right..

Hm. What should I edit now... Maybe GBeast!? To like... Hm. DrkGBst? That'd be kinda cool. Modify his AI to Uber, if he has one... Nope. Hm. I wonder why Judgeman has a red set of robes?

That's his book. Different palettes from objects can be applied to any object.
