I need some help with preset making. :/ {FIXED}
« on: September 25, 2013, 08:28:11 am »
Okay, so, i was making a presets lately, and i was wandering....
What do i need to do for the preset number 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 to work?
Like in Preset making it would open, and i could see what i'm making.

Not so good at explaining things. :/

So I am not 100% sure but you ask how to work with presets nr: 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12
Let's take for example preset nr 3. You have to open the mateiral file with notepad.
The first code you see should look like this:
material preset_3_bodyMatL
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3body.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
You should name your image file as the text that I marked.
But you can always change the name. The texture infront of it just says to use the image you have entered with the exact same name.

Hopefully you understood I am not so good at explaining also too.
shhh noone knows me

   {
      pass
      {
         cull_hardware none
         cull_software none
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3eye.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
material preset_3_tailMat
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3tail.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
material preset_3_maneMat
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         lighting off
         cull_hardware none
         cull_software none
         scene_blend alpha_blend
         depth_write off
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3mane.png
         }
      }
   }

Do you know what you are naming the preset images you are using/made? Also do you know if they are in .jpg or .png format.

The part in red which WolfKate has mentioned is what you need to name the image for the preset body.

The current code in your .material file only works with .jpg, I would assume. Some codes work better with .jpg than .png, some work better the other way around. For your preset to work your image needs to be a .jpg it seems.

Does the image match the name in the .material file?

Have you made any changes to the .material file at all?

Try reinstalling FH in a different location, copy the original matierial files to your current FH and leave the backup FH you just made there or delete it. Then work with the JPGs. Unless you saved the images a songs. Then we will go from there.
