This is a short tutorial that shows you how to give XCC Mixer every palette from all C&C games, without the need for having them all installed.
This way has some slight advantages over the inbuild automatic palette location of XCC Mixer:
-no registry crap is needed to find all the palettes
-the palettes appear neatly arranged in the bottom infobox of XCC and show in much shorter text which palette is currently selected
-you can move the XCC Utilities on a portable medium and are still able to use all the palettes
-you can enhance it later easyly if you want to add modified palettes to create SHPs etc (in the cctdawn.mix inside the LKOccallpal.mix you can find already such 2 palettes redremap.pal and shadow.pal)
1. Download the attached zip LKOccallpal.zip and extract the mix inside.

Place the LKOccallpal.mix inside your XCC Utilities folder.
Start XCC Mixer and open the Tab View then open "Directories..."
2. Now enter in the TD Primary: textbox the path to your XCC Utilities. (Do the same for TD Secondary: and RA:)
Press OK.
Close XCC Mixer and restart it again.
3. Now the Mixer has loaded the LKOccallpal.mix file with all the palettes. You can see it in the bottom info box of the Mixer.
Change the palette as usual.
