nope you can use any color paletta for a tile group.

as long as all the tiles in that group use the same color paleta (same index).

the tiles are ordered in groups with start with the same name
Hcost75* for example are all 1 group.
the all have the same paletta
also the M and L tile have the same paletta

this is the only thing you have to worrie about.

though when using other standart textures too you have to take care that the boundaries from the old to the new look similar :)
256 colors are not much... :(

How can you explain this situation?:
I've replaced all 8 tiles for Osan airbase and they are out of paletta ,but one is looking right.

very easy not all Tiles in that group (airbaseOsan group this time) have the same paletta :)

open the tile you see correctly
save its paletta with PSP or photoshops or whatever.
open the other Tiles and load the paletta you just saved into the other tiles.
(use the nearest color matching routine if possible).

now creater new M and L tiles from the Htiles you just altered
