Textures/ Diffuse re-color?.

[gary]

Hi i have done quite o bit of texturing with Empire an wondering if i am doing anything wrong I have extracted theses files to here C:\Users\Gary\Downloads\variantmeshes\_variantmodels\man\shield\tex so when i open it in photo shop it looks grey? not sure why this is is there another file i need to open in order to make my own shield designs? as is when i extract similar diffuse files they are all grey in color so wondering if some other mask is at work for color.

Color is determined by the faction_uniform_colors table in the db in the data_rome2.pack. You can also adjust things in the unit variants_pack if you want a unit to have different colors then it's faction. You can't have anymore than 3 colors for a faction. For shield designs you need to look in the patterns tab, not the shield tab. You can adjust things there, you can also use this to override the color system if you put a color as part of the shield design. Look at the celtic shield designs for examples of this. Lastly I would recommend looking here to avoid problems later.
