New Hair Colours
So with the use of my Character Creation Expanded I have added 12 new hair colours. This is the maximum amount the UI currently allows.
Download the fbproject from my mod page under Optional Files. The one you want is 12 more hair colours.
Open the project once you have Frosty Editor running.
You will be greeted with this:
Expand the side names until you get to the HairColorPresets folder. Inside here are the 12 new presets.
Now your mod will require my mod to work, this is due to my mod also acting like a framework, for files that get added to that same file. Such as hair colours and nose presets.
Due to your hair colour edits requiring my mod, you don't have to worry about deleting any of the colours if you don't plan to make all 12 into your own hair colours. Just means the ones you don't edit will remain the ones I made in my base mod.
Now to make things easier on yourself you will this Frosty Color Picker Plugin plugin by natv1337, extract the files into the Frosty Editor plugins folder.
Open up one of the hair colours by double clicking on it.
Below is what it will open to:
Expand ShaderVecParams and then the 3 numbers. You will see the below
Now go to Tools > Color Menu and this will open:
This is where we are going to get our colours from. For this you will want to tick Vector4 on.
0 = Highlight, this you want brighter than your Midtone
1 = Midtone, this is the base colour
2 = Shadow, you want this darker than your Midtone.
So what I do first is pick my Midtone, click on Export to Clipboard and then right click on the ParamValue line on 1 and paste. This should paste the values you see in the Color Menu.
Repeat for shadow and highlights following the tips above.
Save the project.
When happy with the colours go to File > Export to Mod
You will find this already partially filled in:
Feel free to change anything that is already filled in. I just left in examples.
The "no icon" is if you want to add a small icon to your mods, that makes them easier to identify in the mod manager.
The other images are for showing previews of your mod. Which you can add after testing in game. So don't close Frosty editor yet.
Open Mod Manager, load your mod below my CCE in the load order so it overrides my hair colours, launch the game and see your hair colours.
If you want to then add images to your mod, go back into editor File > Export to Mod and add your images before saving again.
Happy Modding!
