[OS SHP Builder 3.38] Red Colors Turn To Brown [SOLVED!]
Subject description: When Importing A PNG Image, If There Is Red, It Turns Into Brown
Hi! I'm new to this forum and technically modding Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge.
I had already worked on making voxels and voxel animation, ini edting
(Ares and a new one Phobos).
This one is me making an "Animation Damage" from Ares with
"Attached Effects"
Most of what I did is:
Click File > Import > Image->SHP
In the SHP Builder, it's actually alright the colors are correct and everything.
But in-game it turns into brown.
I also tried using a darker red, and again it's alright in SHP Builder, but not
in-game. Why is that?
I've mostly dabbled HEAVILY in voxels and ini editing
(most coming from Ares) and I wanted like to move on to animations, as this had been a barrier for me adding or even making new animations until I knew I'm not wasting time, like me trying to find out stuff for ini edits.
If this question was already answered or there is a related question that was already answered,
then it's pretty much fine for me if you just give a link as response Last edited by Ousagi on Thu Nov 03, 2022 12:27 pm; edited 1 time in total QUICK_EDIT
When you imported the file did you set the Game to RA2 and the Type to Animation? This sets the correct palette for the file, which can effect the colours. _________________
It imports just fine to my mouse.sha, so i'm guessing you're selecting either the wrong pallette (it needs mousepal.pal) or you're saving it with the wrong compression.
It'll still save as an SHP, so you'll need to rename it to .sha
EDIT:
oh, wait, sorry, I thought you were trying to make it a mouse cursor not an attach effect.
Imports fine for me, so you've either dicked with your anim.pal or are using a palette other than anim.pal in your art entry. _________________ MIdAS - Turning wages into beer since 2002 QUICK_EDIT
I hadn't touched any palletes. In fact, I don't even know how to use other palletes.
Speaking of palletes, I saw somewhere where you can use your own pallete and add it specifically to youe shp.
They didn't really talk about how they did it and I kinda what it was about, but I want to know how to do that.
Also, would reinstalling OS SHP Builder fix the issue?
You saw the picture, was there something wrong you noticed about it? QUICK_EDIT
can you post the resulting SHP? cos I'm getting what looks to be a perfectly fine SHP using those settings. _________________ MIdAS - Turning wages into beer since 2002 QUICK_EDIT
