Preset help

[TwistedSorrowzz]

Well, they do need a missing right leg which would be why they would differentiate between the two sides. What Twisted means is that if you want two different textures for your left and right sides, you need to indicate it in the material file.



To make one side different than the other would be to add some character to the "preset_2body.jpg" on the preset_2_bodyMatL or bodyMatR depending on which side is different.

It sounds like you've already been doing this as only one side of the preset is missing, correct?

Thank you for making my point more clear, Morgra. ^

I have that. It just transparency does not work on the right side of the body. I can make 2 sided presets its just it only for some reason does not work on the right side. I have Alpha channel on, i take the eraser and remove the leg. it has the checkered pattern when i use it. I save the preset, load up FH, go to preset maker, load up said preset that i just saved, and it acts like i didnt just add the transparency on it at all.

[Morgra]

Oh so what you're saying is that you are saving the missing leg side too and it's just not showing up on the preset? Both sides look the same and have no missing leg?

[Arandomperson]

Yes!

[Morgra]

Okay, that makes sense. I'm thinking it's a code issue. Mind posting your code for us to look at? It could also be that the right side file isn't in the folder. You've made sure both sides are in the preset's folder right? c:

This is what my code looks like.

Okay so one thing i'm noticing is this part under material preset_10_bodyMatL:

Code: [Select]

texture_unit

{

tex_address_mode wrap

filtering trilinear

}

}

}

}

texture_unit

{

texture preset_8body.png

}

}

}

}
There is a preset_8body.png texture in there that doesn't seem to fit as you've already included the "texture preset_10bodyL.png" as a texture unit. If you can explain if that preset_8body.png texture was in there for a reason, let me know ^^

I will be able to fix this up if that's part of the problem

[Arandomperson]

I dont know how that got in there, but i deleted it and still the same result. And yes I deleted all that you pointed out in the code above.

Oh okay. I don't know what all you deleted but since the same problem is happening I can try to write you a new code. I have a question for you though,

Was all of these details needed for the leg? There are a lot of passes and modifications that I wasn't sure what it was for, including the "tex_address_mode wrap" and the "filtering trilinear" at the bottom:

Code: [Select]

receive_shadows on

Edit: Realized you were talking about a metal leg now.

[Arandomperson]

*Deeply shrugs with stupid/clueless face* I really just copy and paste old code's ive been useing just to get the two-sided stuff. And about the metal leg i download the overwatch item pack just for that leg to use in a Warrior cat rp.
