Unable to get multicolor chocobo with png mod

[satsuki]

Hello.
i'm on the way to update chocobo game texture.
but i cant get the chocobo colors works in game, they're all green (as the extracted png):

i've trie to remane other colors as bv_01.png or bv_02.png with no luck, is it some limitation or is theyre a specific mane for each chocobo color ?

How are you extracting them? What file are these in. I'd like to try my tool at it.

I use ulgp to extract files from lgp.
Then i convert the .tex files with tim.
The only file with chocobo heads in it is bv_00.png and as green colors.
Then i use inkscape to convert the heads in vectors, then upscale.

Ok, in fact the colors are bv_00.png, bv_01.png, bv_02.png.... but there seems to be lots of color so in my test the numbers i tested wasn't used ^^'.
Just need to spot with number is used for witch color...

I opened the file with my texture tool and looked at it.

Thanks for your soft (finaly get it, damn hotmail with .exe attached files ^^')
I've done a mod for chobobo from french version (used a chocobo art for head).
Feel free to mod it for english version (only a few file need to be done but most need to be renamed i think)

Here's some samples ("nouvelle version" is the mod and "base" the game without mod)
