First off, we need to know what area to edit:

first we go to the Window_Base script and locate:

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Get Text Colors
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def normal_color;      text_color(0);   end;    # Normal
def system_color;      text_color(16);  end;    # System
def crisis_color;      text_color(17);  end;    # Crisis
def knockout_color;    text_color(18);  end;    # Knock out
def gauge_back_color;  text_color(19);  end;    # Gauge background
def hp_gauge_color1;   text_color(20);  end;    # HP gauge 1
def hp_gauge_color2;   text_color(21);  end;    # HP gauge 2
def mp_gauge_color1;   text_color(22);  end;    # MP gauge 1
def mp_gauge_color2;   text_color(23);  end;    # MP gauge 2
def mp_cost_color;     text_color(23);  end;    # TP cost
def power_up_color;    text_color(24);  end;    # Equipment power up
def power_down_color;  text_color(25);  end;    # Equipment power down
def tp_gauge_color1;   text_color(28);  end;    # TP gauge 1
def tp_gauge_color2;   text_color(29);  end;    # TP gauge 2
def tp_cost_color;     text_color(29);  end;    # TP cost

We notice that the colors are based on the 32/128 color palette, so we either pick from the list below or choose a different color:

note: use the palette that matches the kind in your skin.

Pal32

Default Palette (32 colors, not high color)

Pal128

Pal512

Pal2048

32 442

Now that we have updated the text formatting to work with your new skin, next we need to go to this topic to get the script. Remember to use the one that is designed for your skin or to download a template and use a graphics program to replace the palette section with the one that matches the script.

Note that the palette can be found in the lower right corner of the windowskin and is about 64 pixels across and 32 pixels tall.
