Colors for Strings & Guy Sprite Madness

[uforik]

Hello,

Trying to figure something out, and it's driving me nuts. Can anyone help me with this?

The screens are on:
http://uforik.servepics.com/ex1.htm

#1) Using Orion's tileset, I walk into the room, and the text is black... I've tried going into pallettes > misc colors, but it doesn't do anything when I change it, so I am assuming I am in the wrong place.

#2) How does ZC match up a 'guy' character, with a tile. In this example, how do I get it to look decent?

Thanks in advance for any help! :)

1) edit the color in CSet 0, color 1 (not 0, which is the transparent color)

2) in tile page 0, there should be some 'guys' in the third or fourth row (might be fifth, too). those are the 'guy' sprites. edit those to change what the guys look like I believe the order is Abei > Amma(sp?) > Merchant. the other guy isn't used, as far as I can tell

The guy sprites are on row 5, 5th-8th tiles I believe. That's on page 0.
