Custom preset help! SOLVED
« on: December 04, 2012, 12:36:53 am »
Okay, so i was working super hard on this preset today. I followed a tutorial and stuff, but when i tried to export it in Preset maker, the folder wouldn't show up!  ??? So, i checked it a few times, made sure i did everything right, but i still couldn't see it! Is there something i missed?

BTW this is the tutorial i used: http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=11968.20

When you export your preset the .fhp file will appear in your presets folder. You can use it in-game by going to Create a Character. When you go to the last tab select the button Use Preset and your preset should show up there.

Will be inactive due to work and exams.

I can't export it, when i go to Preset Maker, it doesn't show up on the list. It shows Preset 1, 2 and 3, but it doesn't show 4 (The custom preset).

Then it's an error, possibly in the .material file. Could you open it up in Notepad and post it here? What did you save your preset files as? preset_4Body.jpg?

Darn it! I forgot, i mistakenly deleted the Preset_4 file. DX Maybe that's why it's not working?

Make sure that the codes you are using match up with the saved file named in the folder, otherwise they won't work. It's all about matching the correct file name with the write code name
