RECOLOR ASSETS

This very powerful feature will give you the ability to recolor any Object, Path, Walls, Portals, Terrains and Patterns.

In both the Objects Tool and the Path Tool you will see a new set of icons, as well as in the Selection Tool when you select either an Object or a Path.

In the Wall Tool, Portal Tool and Pattern Tool, you will only see a smaller version of it:

ICONS

Disclaimer: Screenshots were taken before the eye icon was removed (enabling/disabling color preview). You won't find it on your version of the mod as it was removed because it was judged too confusing. I'll take new screenshots when the mod will be officially released.

Brush Icon - Greyscale

Clicking this icon will turn your asset into a greyscale image. This is interesting when you don't want to keep the original colors of the asset.

Greyscale applied: the asset is now fully yellow

Half Moon Icon - Custom Greyscale Contrast

This icon works the same as the previous one, but it gives you the ability to modify the greyscale contrast, so the color can be more saturated. It works pretty well with assets that have a naturally low contrast and dark tones, like statues. You can auto-adjust the contrast per asset by clicking on the second half-moon icon, or you can adjust it manually with the slider below (dark values on the left, light values on the right).

Left: Regular greyscale Middle: Normalized Brightness Levels Right: Manual Brightness Levels

Sliders Icon - Color Gradient

This icon lets you create your own color gradients. This is definitely an advanced feature and I can't pretend to know exactly how it works, but with time and patience you can get your own color scheme on any asset.

Color Gradients are supported across Objects (including Colorable Objects), Paths, Walls, Portals and Patterns.

The Color Gradient is pretty useful when you need to make half transparent assets.

Key features

• Managing the lowest and highest values (see Custom Greyscale)

• Managing the gradient colors (adding, removing, changing their value)

• Displaying the individual colors

• Saving presets and groups & managing them (see Scatter Presets from Minor Utils for more details on the UI)

Full Moon Icon - Plain Color

This icon transforms the asset into a single color. It can be useful in some cases, like shadows.

Left: No color Right: Plain color

PRO TIPS

Better Light Control

If a Light is making an asset look too bright, you can use this mod to make it darker and look more natural.

Playing With Plain Colors

The plain color feature can be useful in a number of situations, from making glowing paths from shadow paths to making precise shadows to an object.

Half Transparent Assets

You can easily create half transparent assets with the Gradient Color tool by dropping the alpha value of the white color to 0. You can also add a tint to the transparency either by changing the white to another color, or by changing the tint color on top.

Multi-custom color assets

By combining this mod and Convert Object Into Pattern, you can manage to recolor only part of an asset. You can cut out pieces to recolor and assemble them to make a totally different color scheme.

Colorable assets will only see their colorable part being changed.
