Palette/colors clarification
Posted: Tue Nov 17, 2015 6:54 pm
I'm reading through a document (http://nesdev.com/NESDoc.pdf) and it states (Under 3.4 Colour Palette):
"These palettes do not store the actual colour values but rather the index of the colour in the system palette."
So if I look at one of the background palettes at $3F01, am I correct in understanding that it contains an index to a color that is in the system palette? Where is this "system palette" located?.
I don't see a reference to information regarding the NES system palette anywhere else in the document or on the nesdev wiki.
