[The Fifth Horseman]

This is an old project I've decided to complete recently(mostly out of sheer boredom) - a program to extract sprites from Space Hulk and convert them to PCX format.

The program is workin (just compile the version labelled as "working", drop it into the game's CHP_DIR subdirectory and run it), but I'm running into some trouble when I'm trying to modify it to reduce the size of the palette declaration.

Instead of initializing the entire set of palettes on start, I'm trying to assemble five of the palettes from two parts each (because almost half of the palette length from the beginning is common for all five), and then add three entire palettes from another table.

The problem is that while the former part works flawlessly, the latter doesn't. The files using those last three palettes instead have the relevant section filled either with zeroes or garbage.

Frankly, at this point I'm just curious why the test version of the program fails in this fashion - it's just something to tinker around with, since the functional version of the program already performs fine in its' task.

I've attached the source code along with the includes.
