VanessaE's Unified Dyes
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
This is a pretty extensive dyes mod, which has the sole purpose of supplying a
|
||||
complete set of colors and a few greys, all of which are intended to be used by
|
||||
other mods as needed to make colored objects. It uses Ironzorg's Flowers mod
|
||||
as the source of the actual pigments. Flowers can be had from one of the links
|
||||
below, or as part of neko259's Nature Pack.
|
||||
|
||||
In total, this mod provides 77 colors and greys.
|
||||
|
||||
Dependencies: flowers
|
||||
|
||||
Recommends: buckets, junglegrass
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Usage instructions, technical information
|
||||
=========================================
|
||||
|
||||
Colors
|
||||
|
||||
Creating a particular color of dye is pretty simple - just harvest coal,
|
||||
cactus, or the appropriate flowers and start smelting them and crafting the
|
||||
results together to get the various colors. There are 12 base colors, which
|
||||
are formed as follows (the degree figure is that color's hue on a standard HSV
|
||||
color wheel, and is what is used in the textures supplied with this mod):
|
||||
|
||||
Red (0°): smelt one rose (yields 2 portions of red dye)
|
||||
Orange (30°): smelt one tulip (yields 2) or mix red+yellow (yields 2)
|
||||
Yellow (60°): smelt one yellow dandelion (yields 2)
|
||||
Lime (90°): mix yellow + green (yields 2)
|
||||
Green (120°): smelt one cactus or one waterlily (yields 2), or mix
|
||||
yellow + blue (yields 2)
|
||||
Aqua (150°): mix green + cyan (yields 2)
|
||||
Cyan (180°): green + blue (yields 2)
|
||||
Sky blue (210°): mix cyan + blue (yields 2)
|
||||
Blue (240°): Smelt one viola (yields 2)
|
||||
Violet (270°): mix blue + magenta (yields 2) or mix
|
||||
2 blues + 1 red (yields 3)
|
||||
Magenta (300°): Mix blue + red (yields 2)
|
||||
Red-violet (330°): mix magenta + red (yields 2)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Greys
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
There are also three shades of grey plus pure black and pure white (figures in
|
||||
parenthesis indicate the intended brightness of the shade, relative to white):
|
||||
|
||||
Black (0%): smelt one piece of coal (yields 2)
|
||||
Dark grey (25%): mix one portion of white paint with two portions of black
|
||||
dye (yields 3)
|
||||
Medium grey (50%): mix one white and one black (yields 2)
|
||||
Light grey (75%): Mix two white and one black (yields 3)
|
||||
White (100%): See below.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
White Paint
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
To get the white paint mentioned above, first smelt some cobble into smooth
|
||||
stone as usual. Then, smelt one smooth stone block to get 10 portions of
|
||||
Titanium Dioxide. Finally, craft one portion of that with a bucket of water
|
||||
and one piece of jungle grass. Yields one bucket of white paint.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Darker colors
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
To obtain a medium-brightness (66%) version of a given color, mix the desired
|
||||
base color from the list above with one portion of black dye (for example,
|
||||
medium lime = lime + black). All such mixtures yield two portions of the final
|
||||
color.
|
||||
|
||||
To obtain a dark (33%) version of a given color, use two portions of black dye
|
||||
along with the base color, which yields three portions of the final color.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Low-saturation colors
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
To get the low saturation (50%) version of one of the base colors, mix one or
|
||||
more of white, black, or a shade of grey with the desired base color:
|
||||
|
||||
Dark, low saturation: dark grey paint + color (yields 2), or two blacks + 1
|
||||
white + color (yields 4). For example, dark, low-saturation red = red + dark
|
||||
grey paint, or red + two black + one white.
|
||||
|
||||
Medium brightness, low saturation: medium grey paint + color (yields 2), or
|
||||
black + white + color (yields 3). For example, medium, low-saturation green =
|
||||
green + medium grey, or green + black + white.
|
||||
|
||||
Bright, low saturation: light grey + color (yields 2), or 1 black + 2 whites +
|
||||
color (yields 4). For example, bright, low-saturation blue = blue + light
|
||||
grey, or blue + black + 2 white.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
RGB values
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
All RGB values and filenames for all colors and shades of grey are represented
|
||||
in the file "colors.txt" (which is generated with the bash script
|
||||
"listcolors.sh"), included in the distribution directory.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Misc. Notes
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
If you need to use /give commands, the node names are of the following format:
|
||||
|
||||
unifieddyes:{nothing or "medium_" or "dark_"}{color}{nothing or "_s50"}.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, low saturation dark yellow would be "unifieddyes:dark_yellow_s50",
|
||||
while bright, full-saturation red would simply be "unifieddyes:red".
|
||||
|
||||
See the texture filenames in the textures/ folder for further hints - all of
|
||||
the item names follow the same format as the filenames, save for having a colon
|
||||
(:) instead of the first underscore (_).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Semi-automatic generation of nodes, crafting recipes, and textures
|
||||
==================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
The modding template
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Along with this mod, you should also download my modding template, which is
|
||||
quite easy to transform into whatever mod you want to create that needs
|
||||
unifieddyes.
|
||||
|
||||
It's just a skeleton, but all you should need to do to get started is to rename
|
||||
the folder to whatever your mod will be named, tweak a few variables near the
|
||||
start of the template's init.lua, and follow the above instructions regarding
|
||||
the creation of your textures.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do it right, you should end up with a very basic mod giving you craft
|
||||
and /give access to your various items. After that part is confirmed working,
|
||||
just add whatever code you need to the end of the init.lua to define additional
|
||||
functions, items, crafts, and smelting recipes, etc., as needed by your mod,
|
||||
and start coding and testing like usual.
|
||||
|
||||
This template is not supplied as part of the unifieddyes mod, rather you need
|
||||
fetch it separately from here:
|
||||
|
||||
Download Template: https://github.com/VanessaE/modtemplate/zipball/master
|
||||
...or browse the code: https://github.com/VanessaE/modtemplate
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The texture generator script
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Obviously, in order for this mod or the above template to be useful, you'll
|
||||
need textures. If you plan to support the entire range of colors offered by
|
||||
Unified Dyes, there is a BASH script included with that template named
|
||||
gentextures.sh, which will, with an appropriately- colored and
|
||||
appropriately-named source texture, and possibly an overlay texture, generate a
|
||||
complete set of colored and greyscale textures.
|
||||
|
||||
The script requires bc (the calculator program) to handle some basic math
|
||||
regarding the hue adjustments, and Imagemagick's "convert" program handles all
|
||||
of the actual conversions.
|
||||
|
||||
First thing's first though - you need source textures. Using your favorite image
|
||||
editor, create a single version of your desired texture. Draw it in the
|
||||
brightest, deepest shade of RED you can muster without losing any detail, and
|
||||
save it out. Ideally, you will want the average color of the texture, when
|
||||
taking into account all bright and dark areas, to be as close as possible to
|
||||
the hex value #FF0000 (0 degrees, 100% saturation, pure red) without losing any
|
||||
appreciable #detail.
|
||||
|
||||
Save this source texture out with a filename of red_base_whatever.png, where
|
||||
"whatever" is the same name you used in the TEXTURE variable above. The
|
||||
default cotton setting, thus, would need a filename of red_base_cotton.png.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to add an image on top of the colored blocks, such as a frame,
|
||||
which you want to be the same color throughout all of the textures, create it
|
||||
now. It should consist only of those parts of the textures that you want to
|
||||
leave unchanged, with transparency everywhere else. Save it out using any
|
||||
filename you want.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, run the script (make it executable first, if necessary).
|
||||
|
||||
If you didn't need the overlay, you just need to supply one command line
|
||||
argument: the base name of your mod. The script will use that parameter as the
|
||||
basis of its texture filenames. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
./gentextures.sh mymod
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to use an overlay also, run the script with the base name as the
|
||||
first parameter, and the complete filename of your overlay as the second. For
|
||||
example:
|
||||
|
||||
./gentextures.sh mymod myoverlay.png
|
||||
|
||||
The program will exit immediately if the image(s) you've supplied are invalid,
|
||||
missing, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Otherwise, the program will iterate through all of the hues and shades that are
|
||||
supported by unifieddyes (though this is done manually, not by reading anything
|
||||
from the mod), compositing your overlay image in after the recolor step, if
|
||||
you're using that option.
|
||||
|
||||
All of the output files will be placed in a new folder, generated-textures/
|
||||
|
||||
Use your favorite image browser or file manager to review the results, and if
|
||||
they're right, copy them over to the textures/ folder in your mod.
