How to make a color Set
You know the default colors on Blockland? I do. Ive been working with the "Blockland Default" Color Set, and suddenly got tired. The way i like to make mods, is of course, look at a default one. I opened the Default colorset folder and took a quick glance at it. Ive worked a lot with Photoshop to know the RGB scales. Here is a exampe:

255 0 0 255
255 255 0 255
0 255 0 255
0 0 255 255

The first column is the Red Scale.
The second column is the Green Scale.
The third column is the Blue Scale.
The fourth column is the Trancperency Scale.

Every time you want to name your colorset group, underneath the group, write "DIV:<Name>", so when you start up blockland, it will say the name of your group. Write a description, and namecheck, so that the colorset will work (Not on the actual colorset text file).

Compress it into a .zip archive, move it into blockland add-on folder, start blockland, click "Start A Game", select "color manager" and lselect your colorset.

remember, the folder should have "colorset_" at the begining.

here is a full example of Stratofortress's Texture colorset:

Why is there an underscore in the title?
This isn't an add-on.

Where do you get the number codes for the transperant color?
