Author Topic: How to Make Colorsets  (Read 6647 times)

To make a color set, you need to use notepad. Maybe you're asking "Hey, do we type in color names, like red, yellow, or green? Is that all?"
If you say that, my answer is... no. Not at all. Yes you do need to use Red - Green - Blue - Alpha (RGBA). And btw, alpha is trancparency. 255 is normal, and 155 is transparent. The lower, the more transparent. If you have no clue about RGB, here is a place you can test them.
This also generates them in hex (color code) for more blocklandy goodness. That part sounded gay... whatever. For example,
Code: [Select]
255 0 0 255
235 0 0 255
215 0 0 255
195 0 0 255
175 0 0 255
155 0 0 255
135 0 0 255
115 0 0 255
95 0 0 255
DIV:Reds
That would be reds. Now, that's kinda all the help I can give. So have fun making a colorset.

As far as I know, they don't need to be RGBA right of the scheme. If you look in the default colorset, it uses 0.000-1.000 integers.

255 255 255 0 >>> 1.000 1.000 1.000 0.000
Divide number by 255 to get correct number.

I'm not completely sure, but this is how I remember it.


Why is it 255 0 0 255 there are only 3 units: Red Green Blue?

4th row of numbers is Alpha (transparency) 255 is a solid colour, 127 is 50% invisible and 0 is no visibility.

this should be in the help section

No it shouldn't, get out.

This reminded me that I still have to finish colorset editor.

It's good, but not too perfect.

Layout is bad, and a few other things, but other than that it's okay.
