One Side? (preset)
« on: October 02, 2011, 01:49:04 am »
Ok, so i made a preset, and I only want one side to have a marking. But, every time I try  to make one side have a big scar and the doesn't have one. Like if I wanted to make one side blue, and one side green, they would both be blue. I'm not sure if you understand me but. I used a picture of a preset from a another person the help:

They have made their preset have a scar on one side of the head, how do you do this? Picture by: http://frigidbloodalchemist.deviantart.com/

Well depending wat preset u used lets say 3 u would go onto the Preset_3 folder and then open the Preset_3 file using notepad.

material preset_3_bodyMatL
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3body.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
material preset_3_bodyMatR
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3body.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}

The left side of the preset is from Material preset_3_BodyMatL to the Material preset_3_BodyMatR. If u wanted the left side to be one where it says texture preset_3body.jpg u would change that to one of presets u made for example "preset_3bodtleft.jpg" u would put that in. Understand? I can make it more clear.
Will be inactive due to work and exams.

I'll clarify what Ingredient said xD .

You have to open up the .material file in the preset folder and edit it.  Depending on where you want your markings to be, you have to put that image file name. For example, if you wanted the left side of your character green, you have to make a separate file colored green or whatever you wanted to be on the left side. Then you take that file's name and enter it where it says material preset_3_bodyMatL. Same thing for the right side. ^^

material preset_3_bodyMatL
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3bodyleft.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
material preset_3_bodyMatR
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3body.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
