I apologize for all the questions, I promise I try to look these answers up myself via google and/or YouTube, it just seems a lot of things get glossed right over with no real explanation.
I am trying to understand Sub 1, Sub 2, Sub 3, and Sub 4 pallets in the when it comes to coloring a sprite or background. When I make a change to Sub 2, 3 or 4 it changes all the Sub palette groups.... I just don't understand how to correctly use these. Can someone please explain the mechanics behind this and/or point me to a comprehensive article about them?
What I do understand, is that we can only use 3 colors (well 4, but black will always be the transparent color as I understand it). I also understand that we build the sprites in black, red, green, and blue, and then we map those colors to a different color. I am sure the answer to my question lies somewhere in between this and something else (I just haven't put that piece of the puzzle together).
Thanks in advance for your help.
