Preset Hue
« on: October 28, 2015, 09:53:18 pm »
Here's how to add a little bit of extra color to your character's preset on FeralHeart. It gives the preset a hue, and it can be any color you want.

I'll use the mane on my preset for this tutorial. Here, it looks all white and boring.


Let's add a cyan hue to it.

1. Open your preset's material file.

2. Scroll down until you find the part of your preset that you want to add a hue to (in this case, the mane at the bottom).

3. Add the following code right above texture_unit:

ambient 0.5 0.5 0.5 1.0

The first three numbers are for the RGB (red, green, blue) values that determine what color the hue will be. Think of it as similar to the way you color your character on the game, moving the bars in different directions to get the different color values. For example, if you wanted a deep blue hue, you'd change the first three numbers to:

0.0 0.0 255.0 1.0

(PLEASE NOTE: The numbers HAVE to be in decimal form, so that ".0" after the number (even if it's a whole number) needs to be there.)

4. After tweaking with the three numbers in the code and have decided what kind of hue your preset should have, save.

(I made the numbers on mine 0.8 255.0 255.0 1.0 for a light cyan tone.)

5. Open up FeralHeart and get to your preset.

Your preset should now have a value to it. Here's what mine looks like now:


I hope that you found this tutorial helpful.
