Title: Whispers Preset Encyclopedia! [Need help with presets? Look here!]
Post by: Whisperingwaves on September 05, 2014, 11:48:30 pm
Whispers Preset Encyclopedia!


I have decided to change this little tidbit into a tutorial grouping of all my preset tutorials. If you need help, or just have a question, please comment below.

The links below are for programs you can use for preset making, you don't have to download them, it's optional.

Download GIMP: >>Click Me<< (http://gimp.org)
Free Paint Tool SAI: >>Click Me<< (http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=49467.0)
Photoshop is also a useable program for Preset's!

Tutorial Part A: Friends Presets
1.) Download the .fhp file and unpack the files.

2.)
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets_zpse7142d1b.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets_zpse7142d1b.png.html)
Go to your Feral Heart folder, which should be in your C drive! (C:\\FeralHeart)

3.)
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets2_zps3f30b217.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets2_zps3f30b217.png.html)
Go to your 'presets' folder, not my_presets. (Also in your FH Folder!)

4.) Copy your .fhp file and paste it here, then re-run the game, and you should be able to see your friends preset!
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets3_zps158299fa.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets3_zps158299fa.png.html)

Tutorial Part B: Pre-Made/Your Own Presets
1.) Navigate to Feral Heart folder and find my_presets(not presets like we did before.)
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets1_zpsb3028c86.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets1_zpsb3028c86.png.html)

2.) Find your desired folder and open it.
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets2_zps0c39d8af.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets2_zps0c39d8af.png.html)

3.) Navigate inside, once your done making the textures, export them there/once you finished your download, past them here(overwrite if needed.)
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets3_zps7e62cbad.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets3_zps7e62cbad.png.html)

4.) Edit your material file if needed. Ex: preset_8.material

(it looks something like this!)
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets4_zps41db3419.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets4_zps41db3419.png.html)

5.) Open the game and navigate to tools, find preset maker among them.
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets5_zpsd1f70cac.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets5_zpsd1f70cac.png.html)

6.) Find your desired preset among the preset list, select it and export! Your finished!
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets6_zpsbc011122.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets6_zpsbc011122.png.html)

Have fun with your presets guys c: Hope you liked this mini tutorial. Any questions? Drop em' in the comments.

Tutorial Part C: Making A Preset + Default UV's
1.) Open gimp or photoshop(in this tutorial i'm using Ps, gimp is a free art program, downloadable from here. (http://www.gimp.org) and open your UV file. Canine or Feline UV's, depending on what model you wish to apply your preset to.
(http://i60BannedImageSite/r0e70l.png)
Default Canine UV's + Wing UV's: http://www.mediafire.com/download/ww0n29kuchlu7ww/Canine_UV&#38;#39;s_Wings.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download/ww0n29kuchlu7ww/Canine_UV&#38;#39;s_Wings.zip)
Default Feline UV's + Wing UV's: http://www.mediafire.com/download/lkh6uul7dz5g9zu/Feline_UV&#38;#39;s_Wings.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download/lkh6uul7dz5g9zu/Feline_UV&#38;#39;s_Wings.zip)
Single Canine UV Files: https://www.mediafire.com/#qlb7ft6ndtq5g (https://www.mediafire.com/#qlb7ft6ndtq5g)
Single Feline UV Files: https://www.mediafire.com/#c28na52nclkf0 (https://www.mediafire.com/#c28na52nclkf0)
Wings + Legends: https://www.mediafire.com/#yqt63wl9wdfo0 (https://www.mediafire.com/#yqt63wl9wdfo0)

2.) Make a new layer under your UV, and create your coloration or preset texture. (Do not steal this tutorial texture >.<)
(http://i57BannedImageSite/2rntshf.png)

3.) Remove or hide your UV layer(I keep it in case i'd like to edit in the future!) and open up a fur texture.
(http://i62BannedImageSite/1low5.png)
(This is the default FH fur texture, more can be found here. (http://deviantart.com)

4.) Go to your drop-down (should be above your layers!) and find multiply and click it.
(http://i61BannedImageSite/13yey0.png)

5.) Save your preset! (instead of the # add your preset number.)
(http://i57BannedImageSite/2ihrwcy.png)
It can be either a .png or .jpg extension, as long as you edit your material file, remember it looks like this;
(http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s444/Whisperingwaves/presets4_zps41db3419.png) (http://s1052.photobucket.com/user/Whisperingwaves/media/presets4_zps41db3419.png.html)

Tutorial Part D: Manes
1.) Open your fmaneMask.png in GIMP or Ps, either one is fine, but make sure it looks like this:
(http://i60BannedImageSite/xe03et.png)

2.) Open fmaneMask2.png and do the following; Select All, Copy, Paste. Make a new layer before doing so.
(http://i57BannedImageSite/ouuy5x.png)
(http://i59BannedImageSite/bge6wo.png)

3.) Lock the Alpha Channel and color both masks however you want. Make sure you deselected the pasted layer.
(http://i62BannedImageSite/28ivvyr.png)

4.) Open your fmaneShade.png and do the same select and copy. Create a new layer then paste it on and hit multiply.
(http://i61BannedImageSite/33u9abr.png)

5.) Export your mane to what ever my_presets folder you are working with and tadaa! You have a mane! Enjoy~

Tutorial Part E: Eyes
1.) Open your eyes UV depending on what kind of preset your making, canine/feline, you will want the UV dedicated to that model.
(http://i59BannedImageSite/mavszp.png)

2.) Open any presets eye texture for reference, or you can use a eye mask. I'm using the UV and a pre-made texture for reference. Drag and drop or for gimp users, select all, copy, paste after making a new layer. Make sure the UV layer is on top and make a layer in between them for coloring.
(http://i58BannedImageSite/orhwcj.png)

3.) Color the eye to your liking and the box beside it is the eye lid. Make that what ever color you want. I'm using a already made eye that I did for Halloween, do not steal it. Now, once your eye is made, hit File and Save As, or for GIMP Export To.
(http://i60BannedImageSite/6hi7wj.png)

4.) Save the file as preset_#eye.png or .jpg and your done! Take a look in-game to see how it looks. Have fun with your eyes!
