How to wear a preset?
« on: August 21, 2011, 02:20:26 pm »
Okay, i've never downloaded/ put on a preset, so if I could get help on where it needs to go and such from the step after downloading to the end, that would be great. Please help!

You carefully have to look at the name of your preset. If it says, for example, 'preset_4body/head/tail', you have to put it in C:FeralHeart > my_presets > preset_4. The folder you put your preset in depends on the number that is in its name.
After you put it in the right folder, open your game, and click Tools > Preset Maker. Then you should see a list of Presets. Just click on the right number (if your preset is in the 'preset_4' folder, click 'Preset 4') and you should see it on your character.
When you did that, click 'export'. Then simply log in, make a new character/edit a character and go to 'IV' (the step were you usually color your character). Then click 'Use preset' and select the preset your character should wear.

Hope that helps :)

Oh, okay, sounds easy. XD But theres a problem...

First, it's kinda ironic because I happened to put it in preset 4 earlier before I read your message XD

Second, the preset I downloaded dosen't have a number, just words D:

Hm, that's kinda weird D: But since I don't see any differences between, for example, the left body and the right body, I'd suggest deleting one of the body, eyes and head files, and naming the other one like this:
- for the body: preset_4body
- for the eyes: preset_4eyes
- for the hair: preset_4mane
- for the head: preset_4head
- for the tail: preset_4tail
I'm not quite sure if that'll fix the problem, so better make back-ups incase it won't work anyway.

Copy paste everything you see there into preset_4 folder, the material file will have the textures all set up for you.

Hmm.. that's weird. I don't know anything else that could help, sorry /:
Just one little thing: Check if the image is a .JPG, I think it has to be because it won't work if it isn't.
