I have been searhcing deep for the game tint art and final found them so now I am trying to make a custom made dye for armor this is what I did on my frist try...not to bad I say looks like blighted blue armor not waht I had in mind but hey I did get a face on the hand warps[:P], or what ever you call them

cool!
you changed the textures on your client?

[Fridlekh]

Not textures, tints.
Check out the act files in: \resources\textures\tints
esp dye_*.act

Each one of these is a 16x16 raw RGB image that represents a color map for a grayscale gradient. Most of the tints are sinple color gradients, but you'll notice that some have different colors that come out under different lighting situations, or vary greatly from one level of grey to another, this is useful for things you want to sparkle or shine.

(256x1, 128x2, 64x4, 32x8. 16x16, 8x32, 4x64, 2x128, or 1x256 can be used for dimensions, choose the one easiest to work with. Save as RAW RGB with no header when you're done, should result in a 768 byte file.)

Fridlekh i did not understand a word you said [:P]

and ya it is client side only

[LaughingOtter]

Cooolll...

Now, if the Resources Override folder worked, we could have some real fun with that..

I'm thinking tie dye!

[Blue Hasia]

Tie dye is one the swatches I want to make.

ANy one else got mabye a color pattern they would like to see in game post them here and I will give it a shot

[Blue Hasia]

Moring sun Is what i call this





I got two versions of this color scheme I call them Westorn Inforno

version 2

Well, the only other way you could have done it is to edit the "OLD TINTS" section of: \resources\tints.def

Instead of a binary representation, it uses a text based representation with a format like:


{
string name = "color name"
bool tintBlack = [true/false]
floatbrightnessMultiplier = 1.0
TTintColor list colors =
{
{
float value = greyindex //start index, usualy 0 (why is this a float?)
vector color = r, g, b
}
{
float value = greyindex //mid index(s) if you don't want a smooth gradient
vector color = r, g, b
}
{
float value = greyindex //end index, usually 255
vector color = r, g, b
}
}
}


A good example that shows msot of this off is "fiery", though it has conflicting tintBlack definitions, wtf?



//------ fiery

{
string name = "fiery"
float brightnessMultiplier = 1.0
bool tintBlack = false
TTintColor list colors =
{
{
float value = 0
vector color = 50, 0, 0
}
{
float value = 128
vector color = 140, 6, 6
}
{
float value = 255
vector color = 254, 120, 40
}
}
bool tintBlack = TRUE
}

what i did fridlek was make my own color table (act. files) in photo shop CS.it took me many tries to learn the pattern of the color table of what section of the color table efects what part armor then when i get my color table made I over ride a dye tint file (act file) already in game, the one i use is blood dye (have 3 full sets of it already.

[Astroth]

A few comments on your dye:

1) Great Work!!!

2) Make some dragon scales like this man!! ((If only our scales showed... :'(

3) Installing was very fast.

4) They look great,since I am dragon and couldn't wear 'em,butthe icons alone look so good!

Download 'em and check out the colors. :) Good job Blue!

[Blue Hasia]

Thanks astroth I have been playing around with the dragon scale color swatches, But from what i learned they are not compossed of one swatch like the dyes are but of many in a combinations of them...and changing the scales I have dropped I am not really a fan of changing my colors for the colors make up who I am and im sure it can go with every dragon armor dye is different than are actual scale color armor dye goes on the clothes not the skin.

and another thing on the dyes in my next installer I got 2 new colors based on dragons scale patterns in game if that counts in your books :)
