Title: How to make custom emotes c:

Sometimes you're looking for a certain face in Emotes but it isn't there. I can show you how to make one. :3

First, open up the FeralHeart folder and look for a CFG file called "emotes". Open that up.
When you open it, you'll see at the top some actions such as: #Smile,Sulk #FrownL,BrowRaiseL #FrownR,BrowRaiseR #SquintL #SquintR #ShowTongue,TongueUp #ShowTeeth,LipShrink #JawOpen #EarPerkL,EarDroopL #EarPerkR,EarDroopR #Eyelids,EyelidL,EyelidR
These are the things you can use to make the perfect emote. For example, for an angry smile, I'd use FrownL, FrownR, and Smile. But this is the easy part. The next thing you'll need to do is add numbers to them.
These numbers tell you how much a certain action will show. They range from 0.1 to 1.
0.1 Being the smallest:
(http://i41BannedImageSite/i4izux.png) Little mouth. c:
1 being the biggest.
(http://i40BannedImageSite/e8wug4.png) LOL BIG MOUTH.
The trick is to test the numbers to find the right emote.
Ok, now let's make an emote. First, at the bottom of the list, hit Enter to make a new line and put your emote name in-between these -> [ ]
Now on to the numbers. Make sure you put a = between the action and number with no spaces. Make sure the action is spelled
right and is in the right order. Spelling does count here.
For example: BrowRaiseR=0.5
When you finish, be sure to Save the file. When you start up FH, your emote should be at the bottom of the list in Emotes.
Here's one of mine, the code being:
[XD]
SquintL=1
SquintR=1
JawOpen=1
ShowTeeth=1
Smile=1
Eyelids=0
EarPerkL=0.5
EarPerkR=0.5
FrownL=1
FrownR=1

So... yea. That's pretty much it. xD

What did you put in the file as a custom emote? I might be able to help if you did something wrong.

Post by: Jaded on January 27, 2012, 10:59:22 pm: When I tried it out, the file said, Windows cannot open this file... In order to open it, Windows needs to know what program you want to use to open it... -.- But cool, never knew you could create your own face emote :D

Post by: whitefang12345 on January 27, 2012, 11:07:56 pm: XD It's alright, I understood just fine.

Well, for that, you would have to replace one of the emotes already set for the 1 - 9 buttons.
Like if I wanted to replace Sad (9 button) I would just get rid of the pre-set emote stuff and replace it with the custom emote stuff. c: Then if I hit 9 that emote would show up instead.
