Used palette for unit shadows?

Hi,

could you help me which palette is used to convert the unit shadow images in starcraft1?

For most other graphics I found out which palettes to use. If I use tunit.pcx than I get a blue shadow. If I use tfontgam.pcx then I get a complete black shadow (which isn't bad at all). But from most screenshots it looks as shadows have a alpha based 2D palette. I tried dark.pcx with my implemented algorithm and it didn't work.

So could you give my any hints?

BTW: I documented here what I know about SC palettes. Just that you know I understood the basics: https://github.com/andreas-volz/stargus/wiki/Starcraft-Palettes

regards
Andreas

hah yeah in the past that might've been up my alley. haven't really been mapping lately, been too busy with everything else. and kinda lost interest too tbh. just not enough people left on SC to feel worth investing the time personally.
