Palettes

Spore uses palettes to display parts, paints and city/tribe planners.

Palettes are made up four different types of files:

• Categories: Each one of the separate buttons you see in the palette: mouths, feet, etc. They go in the creature_editor_palette_categories~ folder.
• Pages: Each one of the pages inside a category. They go in the creature_editor_palette_pages~ folder.
• Items: This type of file specifies which items are shown (and where) in each page. They go in the creature_editor_palette_items~ folder.
• Palette lists: A file that specifies which pages are used. They go in the creature_editor_palette~ folder.

That list specifies the folder where each file must go, but that's just for creature parts; depending on the editor, and whether it's parts or paints, the folder changes. Below there's a complete list.
