Solstice Palette inconsistencies fix patch
Version 1.0
Made by JP32 08.02.2022
Requested by Junkman


This patch fixed the palette inconsistencies with
the player character, blue and purple potions.
This hack only works on the base game, USA version,
since item palettes are applied per-room basis, so
if hack changes item locations then this patch will
change wrong items palettes.


On the opening cut-scene and title-screen Shadax
is blue, but in-game hes purple for some reason,
this has been corrected, he now uses same palette
as he does on the opening cut-scene.


Blue potions now all use same palette, in original
game in some specif rooms it uses purple palette,
and in some areas proper blue one, now its the
proper blue in all rooms. The "big picture" screen
now also is properly blue instead of purple.


As for the purple potion, they have all been corrected
to the proper purple palette instead of the magneta palette
original game uses, this also applies for the "big picture"
palette too.
