Preset help! (first Double-sided)
« on: January 31, 2018, 05:14:01 pm »
Ah.. It's my first double sided preset, I've been working on it for a bit. I copied the code from a different topic, so it might be wrong. Anyway, one side of the preset is fine and normal, however, the right side (where I wanted scars) is all blank, marshmallow. Except the head, which is just...the textures I used...? I'm not even sure. What should the files be named, first of all? I believe right now (as an example) the right side is called Preset_4headR

As you can see in the code that you have, there are two parts of the body.

One is called preset_4body2.jpg and the second one is called preset_4body.jpg

Just put preset_4body1.jpg instead of just body.jpg.


Then, when creating a preset in whatever program you're using, make sure to when you're working on ONE side of the character, to save it as ONE side.

For example, you're working on the Left side of the body, you wanna save the file as preset_4body2.jpg

And when you're working with Right side of the body, save it as preset_4body1.jpg


Same goes with head, make sure to have TWO separate photos of the preset.

Thank you very much! Most of the tutorials I found were confusing which I think is what threw me off.
