[ThrillexForLife]

I'm just curious how some members add skeletons to their presets and mask. How do they do it? Help.

There is a skeleton preset that comes with the game...if thats what your asking...

Where I don't see it?

Edit: Do you mean in the preset folders or inside the game when you custom your character?

[ShadowPhoenix515]

When you go into the game, after you log in and get to the character creator area, go into make a new character and look for skeleton preset of somthin like that. Ill go take some screenshots for you. Brb.

[ShadowPhoenix515]

Here are some screenshots of the preset. It is only available in the canine creating area.

Well its not a preset, its more like a 'body pattern', 'Head Pattern', and 'Tail Pattern'

[ThrillexForLife]

Oh, no, no. Not that I meant like a preset. For example, like this

[ShadowPhoenix515]

Oh, im not sure about that one... Ive never seen it honestly. That would be a preset that you make on your own, outside of the game. Most likely a download. Id check out DA and see if its on there, and if you find the download you can ask the creator about it, how it works and such.

1. You need a transparent code for your preset: http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=34786.0

2. You'll have to draw on the bones in Gimp or some other kind of art program. Gimp is a good program; it's free!
3. Save it how you would save any preset.
Note that you cannot use the original FH makings for a preset, as it states here: http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=7372.0
It can take a lot of practice to make a preset like that, if you're a beginner.

Also, if you have a skeleton laid out already, I'd use a tool similar to an eraser that erases one color completely. For example, I have white markings on a black background. I user the eraser on the black backround. The black completely becomes transparent. On PS, it's this tool: (I don't know if Gimp has it; I don't use Gimp anymore.)

This is the effect:

It makes it easier to make complex presets easier. But, I think you'd have to do what I linked before.

If someone knows an easier way, I'd appreciate it also. x_x It's hard making presets with bones.
