Preset Issues

[Mischa]

Hi all,

I just started working on a preset. I worked a little bit on the body file and when I got on FH to test it, I couldn't see any of the presets in the box under the coloring panel. As far as I know, the file is named properly and is in the right place.

Below is a couple of screenshots for reference.

All help is appreciated!

Did you log on and go straight to your character creator?

Maybe the codes are a little off? If you were to post them, it would help us to see if that's the issue ^^'

At first yeah I did go to the character creator right away. Although I tried getting in game on one of my characters then back to the creator and it's still the same.

As for the code, I'm assuming you're referring to the preset_3.material file. Below is the code for it:

material preset_3_bodyMatL
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3body.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
material preset_3_bodyMatR
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3body.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
material preset_3_headMatL
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3head.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
material preset_3_headMatR
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3head.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
material preset_3_eyeMatL
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         cull_hardware none
         cull_software none
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_3eye.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}
material preset_3_eyeMatR
{
   technique
   {
      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
         }
      }
   }
}

Thanks btw!

Did you go to preset maker before logging in and export the preset?

[G4RG0YLE]

The reason why you can't see your preset seems to be because in the .mat file the images are .jpg's. Yet the actual images themselves in you file are .png files. Open up the .mat file in Notepad, and click Edit, then click Replace, and write 'jpg' in the 'Find' box, then below it put in 'png' and click 'Replace All.'

Oh geez, I figured it out. Turns out I was trying to test the preset from the character creator and not from the preset maker..

Thanks for all the help though guys!

Btw Shurtle, all of my files were jpgs. Although I didn't know you could actually use pngs and just change the .mat file to make it work.

Locking this since the issue was solved. Good luck with your preset! c:
