Thanks, AD. If I were using OGL directly, I'd probably use the method you describe.
Basically, what I want to do is inform the user that if they are running a 256 color desktop (unlikely, I know), they will have to switch to HiColor or TrueColor...and have this work on all platforms.
FlameDuck's method works fine on Win32, but doesn't help me if/when I try to compile this on other platforms.
Hopefully, BRL will offer a simple solution in a near-future update? :)
