So, I got some preset textures from a friend in a group, and I'm using them to make myself a preset. I made the body, exported it out of gimp, and opened feral heart to view the preset. Body didn't show up. "Huh, that must be weird. Did I name it wrong or put it in the wrong slot?" Nope. Correct slot, correct name. Next, I remembered that the preset texture for the body was 1024x1024. So I scaled it down to regular size. No luck. What could be happening that is not allowing me to view the body?

You should maybe check out in the code and maybe renaming it could work.
properties:
512x512
png or jpg (need to be coded in the material file aswell)
this thread can also help ya

in case you maybe used any special code, make sure it is all right and take a peek at the tutorial for it.

It is 512x512, I used special code, not the culprit. All my preset images are PNGs. Always. Everything is coded correctly, as said in thread, file name, type, and size matches. I did have to scale down the image though, since it was 1024x1024, as stated.
-
Hmm, did you try renaming it? it could help.

No luck.
EDIT: I had used the gradient tool in gimp, thought that may have been the culprit, but nope. no luck.
EDIT 2: I also set the body image to a COMPLETELY RANDOM image. No luck. I'll try maybe getting rid of the code used, since anyways I don't think I'll use the code, it's just something I put in there for fun..
EDIT 3: Nope. Didn't work. Body is still showing as black & yellow.
-
Could you possibly paste the code for me?
Definitely sounds like a coding problem.

The code? Sure, let me grab that..

There it is. If there's anything wrong, please tell me or give me a fixed version. <3

So half of me thinks that this is connected to the name of the preset. Just to test, I'd recommend changing the code/image back to preset_4body.png and see if that fixes it.
If you don't mind my asking, you said that you have used special code ~ is that only to change the images to .png or do you have a glow added? I know with glow you have to make the glow image first to get the body image to show up. c:
-
Nah, it was just an inside texture code thingy. Don't use glow stuff. Also, no luck with changing the filename.
-
Ohhh texture inside of the preset? If so, the coding should look something like this:

The post that I got this from is right here: https://feral-heart.com/smf/index.php?topic=67295.0 (Hopefully that helps with it all)
-
That is the code I used. As said, I didn't really need it, it's just something I add if I wanna use it.
-
Oh I apologize. Have you tried "starting over" with the code? That may be able to get your issue down to something more specific.
-
What would that entail? I removed the special code, and turned it back into the original code. Is that what you mean?
-
Yes, completely copy and paste the code from a working preset and then change the names again ~ maybe it could be something small in the code like a space somewhere outta place.
-
I did that, actually, let me check a working preset's material file and the problem preset's file, maybe it is just a simple error. Thanks for suggesting that to me, I'll edit this if it works!
EDIT: No. Cigar. Gosh darnit..

If you'd like, you could send me a copy of the preset files and I could try to see if I can get it to work on my end?

Aight, let me grabbie them. Preset slot is 4. link is here (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/fdqbkl0bv07d18b/AACuXxyboJ-9oq3uFNHM0Cxha?dl=0) Tell me if you can't download it from that link.

They're showing up for me:

Download: Click me (https://drive.google.com/file/d/12G6qr40_ZG5uoKt9fclXGE1WaKNpDXXI/view?usp=sharing)
Just copy the whole preset_4 folder from the download and replace the other one with it. Let me know how you go with it!

Sadly, it didn't work. Exact same problem. Here's what it looks like on my end: (https://i.imgur.com/ZzOFNsK.png)
This is really weird, if it shows up for others, but not me, then what's going on? It's something MY end, but what? What do you guys think could be causing the issue? With other presets it's fine, I have no antivirus and why would it target a PNG anyway.. I am so confused.
-
Hmmm. Really don't know what should you do, but maybe copyright every .png file and reinstall game? Or, if you tried it already, try to use diffrent slot (first rename files and codes!)… Never met something like this, weird.
-
Well that usually means there's something wrong with the files and not the coding, it's weird that it's working for me and not you though. Perhaps try reinstalling your game and replacing the fresh preset_4 folder with the one I gave you. I know it's a pain, but I can't think of what's causing just the body to appear like that, especially when it's fine for me.

Oh, it just seems to be that slot! The body is showing up just fine now. I'll add a SOLVED to the title. Thanks for suggesting- I forgot to do this XD

That was a good idea, perhaps that slot broke lol. Hopefully it'll be fixed eventually. Glad you were able to find a solution for the issue!

Small thing can change big things ;D Glad you fixed!

Awesome! Thank you Sigyn for helping out! I'll be locking this now. c:
