Exported Preset Problems

[Bears]

((I hope I put this in the right place ^^;))
After doing my research, I found I cannot export the preset I want on my main account because of the  '*' in my other username. I was able to get it to export fine on this one. The thing is, I do not want to have to switch in between accounts to use the preset. Is there anyway I can get the file exported under this account to work on the main one (as is sharing it or something)? Or would I just have to use it on this one?

Hmm, I don't ever r'member any issues with people exporting presets with "*" in their username.

Sadly, there is no way to transfer an exported preset to a different account. Y'mind telling me the issues with trying to export with the first username?

[Bears]

 Really? Huh.

Well, I followed the instruction on how to export a preset, so the files are where they need to be. When I type in the main accounts username and try to export the files it tells me that the export has failed. I assumed it must have been the asterisks because this one exported with no problem

Try transferring the files (don't forget to change the coding) to another folder and see if it works then

[Bears]

Mhm, how do I change the coding again?

[Kerriki]

Simply go into your material file and change everything to the new preset number. For example, if your preset is currently in folder one, and you wish to move it over to four, simply change all the 1's to 4's. However, to do this quicker, change only the 1's if it's something like "material preset_1bodyMatL" (or, really just the pieces of text found all the way on the left of the coding). If this is confusing, I can always whip up a code for you if you want ^^ (Just say the original preset folder name as well as the folder you wish to move it to)

[Bears]

Oh, please do! The original preset folder is preset_11 and I want to move it preset_6

[Kerriki]

Okie! Here you go ^^

Code: [Select]

}
}
}
}
This is the most basic you can get with coding, and I even included a fixed mane code for you (however I'm not sure if you use .png for your files or if you have double sides or other advanced coding, so if you do then you'll have to add in that yourself). I made it so you can simply transfer the preset files right over, without having to rename them (unless of course if the files are in .png format, then you can simply change the coding over to .png)

Womp, I'm still kind of confused cx

Where do you put this code?

[Likuu]

You go into your My_Presets folder then look for "Preset 6" and click the MAT file [material file] delete everything there and copy and paste the code Kiki gave ya.
