My friend just made a map.
http://wmdb.org/18987
And he gets an error when typing in the map number in HostingBuddy. Just says "Invalid Map File - Map Is Not Palette Based". How do we fix this?

He did that already.
Once it didn't work.
Second time it didn't work either.
Now, the two robots on the map are just pasted pictures.
Does that make a difference?

The uploaded map is still rgba 32bit.
Choose 64 colors to be on the safe side.
I can load it this way without any errors: http://pacman.highfsb.net/test.png

Haha good one, we didn't notice that when we played. XD
He's gonna try putting the map to 16 bit with 64 colours... That should help... I hope.

16 bitPlease read the instructions carefully. The instructions clearly say that maps must use 8-bit color.
