Setting 0-255 RGB Intensity in a 256 Color Palette
Hello,
I am an amateur C/C++ programmer currently programming for Dos in MSVC 1.52 without MFC support.
I would like to know of a way to remap a 256-color screen palette, so that each color is composed of a RGB triplet.
However, the way that I found to do this only allows to set a 0-63 value for each RGB component.
What procedure do I need to use in order to be able to set each RGB component in a range of 0-255?
Thanks in advance to anyone who helps me out,
Sincerely,
EnigMasterMind.

The reason you can't find a way to have an RGB value of 0-255 in 256 color mode is because there isn't one. RGB values of 0-63 define 256 colors. RGB values of 0-255 define Truecolor 16.7 million colors. Of course this is going to be SVGA.
