The title may sound confusing, but bear with me here. I want to make it so a vehicle has a 3-tone colour design using the 3 different colour selectors to set those colours I can't figure out how to do this using only materials which is what I need, as the model I want to use this for is too complex for UV mapping and I don't know anything about stuff like that. I've created 3 copies of the main body material from the bolide and put it on a test vehicle, but the colours of them all seem to be linked to the first one and I can't figure out what part of the materials decides this. I've tried changing various values inside the materials file but nothing changes I've left the materials in question and the est vehicle attached so anyone can take a look at it and attempt to help or something (you can ignore the carbon part, that's just left over from something else. The vehicle itself is just the idealcar with the blender cube as the body) Code: singleton Material(body) { mapTo = "body"; diffuseMap[2] = "vehicles/amtest/body_c.dds"; specularMap[2] = "vehicles/amtest/body_s.dds"; normalMap[2] = "vehicles/amtest/body_n.dds"; diffuseMap[1] = "vehicles/amtest/body_d.dds"; specularMap[1] = "vehicles/amtest/body_s.dds"; normalMap[1] = "vehicles/amtest/body_n.dds"; diffuseMap[0] = "vehicles/common/null.dds"; specularMap[0] = "vehicles/common/null.dds"; normalMap[0] = "vehicles/amtest/body_n.dds"; specularPower[0] = "128"; pixelSpecular[0] = "1"; specularPower[1] = "32"; pixelSpecular[1] = "1"; specularPower[2] = "128"; pixelSpecular[2] = "1"; diffuseColor[0] = "1 1 1 1"; diffuseColor[1] = "1 1 1 1"; diffuseColor[2] = "1 1 1 1"; useAnisotropic[0] = "1"; useAnisotropic[1] = "1"; useAnisotropic[2] = "1"; castShadows = "1"; translucent = "1"; translucentBlendOp = "None"; alphaTest = "0"; alphaRef = "0"; dynamicCubemap = true; instanceDiffuse[2] = true; materialTag0 = "beamng"; materialTag1 = "vehicle"; }; singleton Material(body2) { mapTo = "body2"; diffuseMap[2] = "vehicles/amtest/body_c.dds"; specularMap[2] = "vehicles/amtest/body_s.dds"; normalMap[2] = "vehicles/amtest/body_n.dds"; diffuseMap[1] = "vehicles/amtest/body_d.dds"; specularMap[1] = "vehicles/amtest/body_s.dds"; normalMap[1] = "vehicles/amtest/body_n.dds"; diffuseMap[0] = "vehicles/common/null.dds"; specularMap[0] = "vehicles/common/null.dds"; normalMap[0] = "vehicles/amtest/body_n.dds"; specularPower[0] = "128"; pixelSpecular[0] = "1"; specularPower[1] = "32"; pixelSpecular[1] = "1"; specularPower[2] = "128"; pixelSpecular[2] = "1"; diffuseColor[0] = "1 1 1 1"; diffuseColor[1] = "1 1 1 1"; diffuseColor[2] = "1 1 1 1"; useAnisotropic[0] = "1"; useAnisotropic[1] = "1"; useAnisotropic[2] = "1"; castShadows = "1"; translucent = "1"; translucentBlendOp = "None"; alphaTest = "0"; alphaRef = "0"; dynamicCubemap = true; instanceDiffuse[2] = true; materialTag0 = "beamng"; materialTag1 = "vehicle"; }; singleton Material(body3) { mapTo = "body3"; diffuseMap[2] = "vehicles/amtest/body_c.dds"; specularMap[2] = "vehicles/amtest/body_s.dds"; normalMap[2] = "vehicles/amtest/body_n.dds"; diffuseMap[1] = "vehicles/amtest/body_d.dds"; specularMap[1] = "vehicles/amtest/body_s.dds"; normalMap[1] = "vehicles/amtest/body_n.dds"; diffuseMap[0] = "vehicles/common/null.dds"; specularMap[0] = "vehicles/common/null.dds"; normalMap[0] = "vehicles/amtest/body_n.dds"; specularPower[0] = "128"; pixelSpecular[0] = "1"; specularPower[1] = "32"; pixelSpecular[1] = "1"; specularPower[2] = "128"; pixelSpecular[2] = "1"; diffuseColor[0] = "1 1 1 1"; diffuseColor[1] = "1 1 1 1"; diffuseColor[2] = "1 1 1 1"; useAnisotropic[0] = "1"; useAnisotropic[1] = "1"; useAnisotropic[2] = "1"; castShadows = "1"; translucent = "1"; translucentBlendOp = "None"; alphaTest = "0"; alphaRef = "0"; dynamicCubemap = true; instanceDiffuse[2] = true; materialTag0 = "beamng"; materialTag1 = "vehicle"; };
Burnside Special has a 2 tone paint job from standard. I'd suggest you to use it as your testing mule or just reverse engineer it.
You'd need to take a advantage of the skin system: Use a colorpalette: colorPaletteMap[0] = "vehicles/common/nullcolormask.dds"; You'll notice that texture is blue. Blue is the third color wheel. Make your own texture that has R G B colored according to the parts you want to color. Parts like 'rollcages' and some 'wheels' do use this system.
