I want to replace some colors in the wireframe palette.... but I can't even find any palettes in the MPQs. What are they called? What is the path? PyPAL (SC1 Modding Suite) lets me open .pal, .jasc, and .riff, but I found no files with these extensions in any of the MPQs.
Responsible for my own happiness? I can't even be responsible for my own breakfast
They are stored as *.pcx files. The wireframe palette specifically is game\twire.pcx.

Why does the .pcx only contain these few colors wheras the actual full palette used by icons is much bigger and allows creating WarCraft-styled icons: EXAMPLE IMAGE
I am trying to make WC2-styled icons out of SC1 wireframes: I thought I could fake lifebars by switching out some of the damage zone colors for green and red: IMAGE ILLUSTRATING MY IDEA FOR 'FAKED' ICON LIFEBARS
Hmmm, maybe there's a better way to make lifebars? Can I manipulate which colors are replaced by which through some plugin?
EDIT: I managed to replace the colors of the zerg damage zones in a way that lets me 'fake' a healthbar: explanatory image. I also attached the explanation to this post for future searchers. In combination with what I wrote here, it should allow even beginners to make wireframe icons with healthbars
