Is using a custom color palette in emulators allowed????
4 years ago

Hey Guys,I recently got back into speedrunning and idk why, but FCEUX lags a lot. So I decided to use Nestopia and it works fine.But the colors on FCEUX were a lot better so I tried using the FCEUX palette on Nestopia and it works fine. So the question is, is it fine to use a custom color palette????

I'm pretty sure it's fine since it doesn't affect the gameplay itself.

If it's typical color palettes you see on emulators, we likely wouldn't have a problem with it. If it's some wild and crazy stuff like a green sky, then we'd rather you not do that.

Thanks for the replies.... The color palette will make Nestopia feel like FCEUX...

FCEUX lagged a ton for me. I would recommend Nestopia. Hasn't lagged for me ever.
