how about using the pilrc plugin ONLY for your bitmap? :) the official syntax:
BITMAP... {normal options here} BITMAPPALETTE "file.pal"
PALETTE ID {id} "file.pal"
I tried this approach yesterday and couldn't get it to work whatever I did.
On the way, I stumbled over a PilRC bug. The palette-parsing (ParsePaletteFile()) doesn't handle newlines directly after the blue value (case 2:). I checked the patches but couldn't find any correction.
This also makes me wonder if anybody really have gotten this to work. Even if I patch the code (or add spaces after each blue value) and get a nice palette resource, I still can't get it to work. The simulator complains about "shadow bitmaps" and other things I've never heard of.
