Snapple's Tutorial Place: Making a preset
« on: August 02, 2014, 03:13:31 am »



                     Snapple's Tutorials


Hewwo, floofs! Snapple here's gonna teach you how to make a preset.
Let's start with the basics.


                             Alright, let's say this is your preset so far:
                            
                          Looks cool, huh? But it looks like it's missing something...
                                                 Oh right, Fur!

                 Alright, here's your texture, found in FeralHeart>> Media>> Textures (Located in Computer>> Windows (C:)
                        
                         It's the stuff that makes it look like an animal with fur. There is Canine and Feline. I'm using the Canine For the tutorial, so if you're making a feline, use the fBodyShade.
                               Now, you have this open right?
                                Now, I use GIMP.
                              Click File- Open- And open the fur texture. Got it? Now that you have this open, copy it with Edit- Copy. Now, open your preset file back up again. Go to Edit- Paste. On, no! Your preset disappeared! No worries, just go to the layers toolbox, click layer mode, and click multiply. It'll come out like this:

Now your preset is finished! Just do the same with the Head and Tail! (Except use the head and tail shade, not the body shade xD) Any questions? Feel free to ask me!



Your now (Almost) Finished preset! Isn't it lovely?

Beautiful tutorial! Very simple, straight forward, and to the point.
You made it come across very easily and the flow of it is very well done.
This is will surely help MANY floofies in need of preset assistance.

I'm sorry to break the peace but... .3. How do you save the preset file and how do you get to play with it in public? .3. Sorry I'm not good at asking simple questions.

owo Glad you asked! Just go in-game and go to tools>> preset maker. Click the preset file (Ex. Preset_1) And click "Export." :D If you need any more info feel free to ask me!

Really great tutorial! I would use it but I don't feel the need (nor do I want to) create a preset as the markings fit well with my current chara's xD but I MAY create one for one of my chara's that have a marking that the creator doesn't have so i'll remember to check back on this if I decide to do that :3
