www.mediafire.com/?wqmvtzn2mz1To us it replace the tplsplitter in your ash dir with it and rename ash_step2.pl to anything and rename ash_step2-old.pl to ash_step2.pl. Also for textures that have a color limit you need to pad the pallet to 256 colors form the front. I tested it with Ganon. And so I can properly credit him can someone tell me who made the original tplsplitter?

Great but...
what's been improved? Does it fix the random crashing issue in Vista? Can you fix the need for padding?

The need for padding is a problem with ash and I don't know perl.
I don't know how the old version worked because I don't have it's source code, but it would die even on tpls that were extracted from an unmodified pac, and the replacement code put in v2.2 of ash makes some rather bad assumptions that tend to corrupt the file.
Edit:I also included the source code so it the exe doesn't work on Vista some one with Vista can compile it. And on a note that is completely irrelevant some one with a Mac/Linux can also compile it.

Ah.
Well.. 2.3 of ASH includes CUPASH's pallet handling --- so the padding shouldn't be an issue.

I think the best solution would be to use a program that would index the tga (and not mess up the alpha channel ) for us in ash so we don't even have to worry about it being a +2. I'm looking for one right now. Edit: found one. sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=207306Haven't tested it yet but it looks good.

That would be a great solution --- but indexing can require a lot of tweaking to look decent... an automated process would probably turn out badly in a few cases.
Now a dream solution would be someone figuring out how to replace an indexed file with a normal one.

In That case they can just preindex it, the program should leave it alone if it has the right number of colors.
