How To Have More Than 12 Presets
« on: July 04, 2016, 03:21:15 am »
i decided to make this cause i was like "yo i have like more than 12 characters that need presets *plus 7/9 of my main characters have presets so* so i'll make a thing so people know how i do the thing".

NOTE: this will only work if you have more than one account. trying this with only one account WILL NOT WORK. well, i mean it will, but who wants to constantly switch between files?

anyway, let's get started!




so first, let's get ourselves a full my_presets folder, shall we?


pretend it's full okay.

ah yes, nice and full. but, oh no! it's full, but you have more characters in need of presets!

fear not, human! for i, the great fire, have a solution! all you need to do is make sure you have all your preset folders assigned to a file in the 'presets' folder, then take out the files! like this:





good, good! now then, go ahead and make your new preset! yes, it's really that simple! make sure to save your old preset files, and put the preset on your other account! unless you want to constantly switch between each preset file for your two characters. but, you'll only have to do that if you use the same account.

this trick also works with three or more accounts! just remember to save those old files! you don't want to get rid of them and have to remake them, do you? and don't worry, the file for the preset on your first account will not be altered at all!



welp, hope you guys enjoyed that little tutorial thingymabobber!

Im pretty confused with the making of presets. So if I click on the file preset 3 it only shows a thing named material. So I don't know how Im going to make more than 2 presets.

You have to make the preset in GIMP or another program like that. Lmao.

I do have Gimp,  but like how do I do presets if they only show material? I only know how to do them with preset 1 and 2

  You don't make presets using 1 and 2, You create your preset in gimp and use 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11 and 12.

You have to create those files yourself! Each of the folders aside from Preset 1 and Preset 2 only come with the material file, you just have to create the corresponding .jpg/.png files. ^^

I'd suggest looking around here for some tutorials that explain how to do it:

On the topic of the thread though, this is actually very useful! I'll have to try this sometime if I ever run out of space. Thank you for typing this up! ^^
