Title: More skilled Preset maker, help?
Post by: Ichamo on April 06, 2015, 06:49:21 am

I tried making a preset using a free texture but I failed horribly- can anyone who actually knows how to make one help me? (aka anyone who isn't me XD )

I was using this texture-

Here is a zip file of my attempt for a reference- https://www.mediafire.com/?d6dbquht0ul7fd8 (https://www.mediafire.com/?d6dbquht0ul7fd8)

Well, first, you don't need to have a copy of the original textures plus the colors in your folder.
You just need to have the colored body, tail, head, wings, eyes etc.
But once you have the textures, you just need to open the .MATERIAL file with your note pad, and replace a few things.
Since your textures are .PNGs, here's the what you need to write in the preset coding.

Code: [Select]

material preset_12_bodyMatL
{
technique
{
pass
{
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12body.PNG
}
}
}
}
material preset_12_bodyMatR
{
technique
{
pass
{
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12body.PNG
}
}
}
}
material preset_12_headMatL
{
technique
{
pass
{
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12head.PNG
}
}
}
}
material preset_12_headMatR
{
technique
{
pass
{
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12head.PNG
}
}
}
}
material preset_12_eyeMatL
{
technique
{
pass
{
cull_hardware none
cull_software none
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12eye.PNG
}
}
}
}
material preset_12_eyeMatR
{
technique
{
pass
{
cull_hardware none
cull_software none
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12eye.PNG
}
}
}
}
material preset_12_tailMat
{
technique
{
pass
{
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12tail.PNG
}
}
}
}
material preset_12_maneMat
{
technique
{
pass
{
lighting off
cull_hardware none
cull_software none
scene_blend alpha_blend
depth_write off
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12mane.PNG
}
}
}
}
material preset_12_equipMatL
{
technique
{
pass
{
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12equip.PNG
}
}
}
}
material preset_12_equipMatR
{
technique
{
pass
{
texture_unit
{
texture preset_12equip.PNG
}
}
}
}


Then, get on FH and preset maker. Choose preset 12, get the mane and equipement on,
And you should now see your preset!
Once you're done finishing details, you can export the preset.
Hope it helped!
