They are 32. Under [IdxConversion] you specify for every index what terrain type will be.

IDX 1 is color index in TerrainTypes.raw, thinks for it like:
R=1
G=1
B=1
IDX 26 is color index or R=26, G=26, B=26

IDX 1=0
IDX 2=0
IDX 8=0
IDX 13=2
Means, that all first three indexes for the game they will be TerrainType=0, index 13 will be TerrainType=2.

So I first need to convert it. For conversion I use ImageMagick.

You can use any text editor (such as Notepad or WordPad) to create your batch files. As long as the file extension ends with .bat it will be a batch file.
To run the batch file, double-click it like any other program. Once the batch file has completed running it closes automatically.
