Title: How to get bi-coloured eyes on presets
Post by: saffie515 on February 22, 2013, 07:55:33 pm

Okay, so a lot of the people I know who make presets aren't aware of how to make their characters have two different coloured eyes. This tutorial will show you how I do it and I will also add screenshots to it to make it easier.

First you need to decide what colours you want your eyes to be, obviously. Mine is going to be a Blue Merle dog preset, so one eye is going to be brown, and the other blue to make it realistic.

After you've made you're eyes how you want them to be, (Colours etc.) you save them in the preset folder you wish. A notice will pop up if you have saved them as the same name. To prevent this, name one of them 'preset_(Number on Folder)Leye.jpg' instead of the regular 'preset_(Number on folder)eye.jpg' . Replace 'Number on Folder' with the number on the preset folder you are using. Also, make sure the one you include the 'L' in is the one you wish to be the left eye.

Now you've got that saved, you're going to need to mess with the coding. I know, not one's favourite job.
Open the material file in notepad and scroll down until you find this:

Make sure that it says 'L'and not 'R' in the parts circled in red.

Now, look here:

In between the '2' (Or whatever number preset you are using), and the 'eye.jpg', you must add an 'L'. So it looks like this:

Now, save and exit the notepad. Load up FH and go to Preset Maker, and get the preset you'd like to use.

Taa-Daa! Bi-coloured eyes!
