I ripped palette file with a hex editor, see below.

There is some information about file formats and tools like texconv, but nothing helpful regarding paletted pvrs.

By the way, that photoshop plugin is also useless for paletted textures, so forget it.

So I have some good news. Looks like the game accepts arbitrary texture formats, so you don't have to make a paletted one. At least I managed to successfully replace one of the game's font texture (paletted) with VQ'd one:







Here is how it's done:

1) Find your pvr file inside AFS file with a hex editor. Then look for a palette file, It should be right before your pvr. In my case it looks like this:



If you don't need the original palette, skip this step.

2) Open pvr file with WinPVR and export it as any non-paletted format
3) Convert exported pvr to png with pvr2png
4) Edit png
5) Open png with WinPVR, generate VQ (I only tested 4444 format, but others should work as well) and export it
6) Replace original pvr with exported one


... and I think I'm done here. The rest is up to you. Good luck.
