My preset's colors aren't showing at all?
« on: December 16, 2011, 07:12:28 am »
Okay, so tonight I was making a preset, just to see how well I'd do. After I finished editing all the files to my liking (which were in the preset_3 folder.) and saved them, I opened FeralHeart to see what the finished product looked like... Bam! The finished product was completly white all over, looking nothing like my preset.



I tried re-saving the preset head, tail, body and eye files, renaming them and moving them to a different preset folder, and I even tried to edit the notepad file, but it still ended up pure white. Does anyone know how to fix this? x_x

Edit: I fixed this myself, actually ^_^;; I'd tell you how, but it's really confusing.

Make sure the Files are the right type, if it says png in teh notepad, it must be Png, I dont think transparency works without any special coding for the preset. Anyways, Say it says for the head file, Preset_3head.jpg, then the file must be JPG. Also, you CANNOT use paint, You must use GIMP.

Yeah, this tends to happen when you don't save teh files as the right type. you should open the thing up and see what the notepad says the filetype has to be and save the preset images as that.

Strange, I did that, but it still shows up as plain white... o_o I even double-checked.

Is the preset double-sided? Did you use GIMP?
EDIT: By double Sided i meant, is there two images for each side? or is it just one?
