So, I edited the MyChar file to replace
Quote
with Catbug from Bravest Warriors, using only colours from the image.
diph.php

Now, when I load the game, it shows up as blue.
diph.php


Would anyone know why this is or how I could fix it?
Thanks!

It's painful to watch people try to explain things they don't actually know about.
CS+ can do any kind of bitmaps, the game itself even uses a few 24-bit ones but the majority are 8-bit. Try saving your image as a 24-bit bitmap and see if that works for you, otherwise make sure the palette isn't getting messed up by image editing software / ghosts

Thank you! I was accidentally saving it as a 256-color bmp.

I always run into this problem, also saving 24-bit saves can crash the game.

I would love to know how to make a 24-bit save.

Why try and save them as .pbm files? Just use Cave Editor to convert CS's images into the .bmp format.

How hard is it to replace the yellow skin with the normal Quote skin in Cavestory+?

Easy, you just have to open the MyChar.bmp and copy the rows where Quote is wearing red and paste them over the rows where he is wearing yellow.
