In Dem2Terrain you can just skip the palette part. If I recall correctly the palette can be only made in paintshop pro as its the JASC whatever format, but I'm not sure.

For Norwegian theater you can just use default Korea palette file.

I think, you can use already created pal file from another theater. Then you can change your map file palette, using some of Monsters utils - MAPeditor or the one included in terrainEditor package.
But you should apply X1 values to your new terrain to make sense(or you can leave it - make all colours white).

What I meant was that you can create theater.map file with Dem2Terrain, but you can skip the .PAL file thing.
