Presets

[Rainbowwhite]

Hi,I need help with making presets.I try to make a preset.As I am done I try it in the test ingame,but it was still white(I make it with the tutorial at the old forum).So I try a preset from a other preset(Akina)and it work.
Can anyone make me a video where I can see how to color the UVs?

[Myz]

Have you named everything correctly. White means missing texture or missing material

[Rainbowwhite]

Myz I do what stands in the tutorial at the old forum.And I only dont know how I must colour the UVs.I do everything what stands in the tutorial.And I think there wasnt anything missing.

[Dutchval]

You can jsut use any form of Image Editing software, such as Photoshop, Pixlr.com, Gimp, Saii, Etc. Just use the UVs as a guide on where's where, and make a texture for each body part

I'm sorry but
"such as Photoshop, Pixlr.com, Gimp, Saii, Etc."
you made me laugh
it's SAI not Saii AHAHA.
You've been hanging out with him too much

\\shush you

If its white then theres most likely a coding issue. Post your PS_Character.MATERIAL you've made and the Preset.CAMPAIGN file.

do you mean this Zaroque?

Ps:sorry for the late reply.

[Zaroque]

What did you save your .MAT file as? Make sure when you go to save it you do: Save As > Save as type: All files > PS_Night.MATERIAL (type the .MATERIAL at the end of PS_Night).

[Rainbowwhite]

I think I save my files as png.Or what dou you mean?sorry but I dont know so many names of the things

[Rainbowwhite]

I have find what you mean.Now it works.
How do I get the preset into the multiplayer mode?

[Dutchval]

Preset submissions aren't open right now, sorry :/

[Zaroque]

Woop! Okay, so for future reference:

PS_Character files must be saved as .MATERIAL
Keep your preset texture files as .PNG (if you want to make your preset texture files as a different file, open up your .MATERIAL file and change the following sections. For example, I want to make the eye texture - for whatever reason - a .JPG:

material PS_NightMat/EyeMat
{
   receive_shadows on
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         ambient 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000
         diffuse 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000
         specular 0.050000 0.050000 0.050000 1.000000
         emissive 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 1.000000
         cull_hardware none
         cull_software none
         texture_unit
         {
            texture presets\NightEyeTex.jpg
            tex_address_mode wrap
            filtering trilinear
         }
      }
   }
}

If you want to have moving markings or any special features (cut-out markings) you must save it as .PNG and save the background as transparent. If you don't know how to make a transparent background with your drawing program (e.g. Sai or Photoshop) look it up on google!

Adding onto what Dutchval said, if you want your preset in-game currently you can either give a donation or wait for free submissions, PM Myz for further details.
