Author Topic: Colorset Help  (Read 1175 times)

I'm trying to make a colorset for a build of mine, but I just realized; How?
I read somewhere they can be made, at least in part of course, with PDN, and I just finished that, now what do I do? I noticed the Pain layout is different from the Torque one.


I'm sorry, I don't really understand your first post, probably because I'm a twelve year old that can't comprehend most words.

If your having problems packaging it, - make two text files, name them description and Colorset.

If you just can't understand it, then here is how to make a colorset:

Red Green Blue Alpha
255 255 255 255

As you can see, each column has a value, the first one is red, next is green, next is blue, last is aplha.
Alpha is your level of transparency.  With those numbers I have their, it makes a Solid color white. bring it down to 235 235 235 255, I have a solid gray.  By simply mixing colors, you can make many different colors.   E.X.
255 0 0 255
225 0 0 255
195 0 0 255
165 0 0 255
135 0 0 255
105 0 0 255
85 0 0 255
55 0 0 255
25 0 0 255
DIV:Red Scale


The DIV:NAMEHERE thing shows what the column name is. Without it, The column would never appear.

255 0 0 128 <-----Red transparent
235 0 0 128
215 0 0 128
185 0 0 128
0 0 255 128 <------Blue transparent
0 0 235 128
0 0 215 128
0 0 185 128
0 245 0 128 <-----Green transparent
DIV:Transparency

That makes transparents, as you can see. I used examples from all three colors. You can change the transparency level to whatever you want. And you don't have to make it named that, you could name it DIV:Taboo's Transpants.

Why don't you try looking at other Colorsets and Seeing what their Colors are and slowly add the Hex's into yours.

Because that would be funtastically pointless, and stealing.
Also, just saw that BL colorsets don't follow the Hex format. They use RGBA.

So essentially I copy paste the hexes RGBA code from the Paint.NET color set to that, with the name following? Alright then.

I never thought of it that way,  If it has the same RGBA format, it might work.  You just throw in colors to make, test it, redo it, test it untill you get the color you want.

Edit:  Yeah, you can use paint.net to get the color levels you need.
