Heya ! I've been trying to play with the color palettes, after having accidentally learned they could be edited (I'm new). So I refered to a topic in the forums related to this. I did not understand anything. My current goal is to copy a palette from a workshop blueprint, and have it usable for the ship I am currently building, so that it matches of course. I was wondering how it looked so good... custom palette helps of course (not to mention it is Jeff Randall @jrandall MCRN). I tried to follow the directions given by Hummel-O-War in the forum tutorial but this all looks like a plain mess. Nothing in the interface is intuitive. You have several options with buttons and things that *look* like normal but actually they are not. I feel like I've met something like "soviet way of making business" or "penitential user friendly". I only achieved reverting the good palette from the vessel I want to copy from, to several awful others. Any help welcome. The best would be a good video explaining which palette does what, how to transfer things from one to the others, and also how to import/export a palette. I searched for it but only found things running around the palette thing without addressing the very topic. Cheers.
I feel you, i managed to use it two or three times but it is to stressfull to do it reguarly which is really sad.
Copy-Paste When you select from top left to bottom right, while holding shift, to copy , you have to do the very same before pasting the colors. I recomend to add new colors to a new palette. Color Palette / - Swap Upon creating a new palette you start with a default set of colors. You may then change them individualy or use the copy-paste function. When selecting a different palette (1..) there is a dropdown menu at the bottom of the dialog window to apply to current. This will actualy 'apply' the selected palette to be used by the color tool. (if you are in close proximity to the structure you want to change the colors) Hope this helps
I wish I could help, it makes little sense to me. And while I am at it WHY is there no eye dropper to pick up a color and patterns
This doesn't work for me. When selecting top-left to bottom-right it instantly modifies the whole palette to... But it works one by one ! So many many thanks for pointing me in the right direction anyway
Ideally, someone who is a master with this tool would do one or two or maybe even half dozen videos and post them on YT, Bitchute, etc. Doesn't even really need voice narration if the creator has the patience to pause and add popup texts to the video.
That would be great. I spent tens of hours getting this color thing under control to some extent. But some colors that I would like to have are somehow not feasible. The sliders do not always react logically.
I wish I had time to do a video. I use custom colors all the time. One big thing to know: stand very very very close to the structures otherwise it won't work.
