Need help with custom armor guide. . .

Unread post by AlwaysSummer Day »

Alright so I am trying to learn how to make custom armor. I downloaded the toolsel and found a guide online here http://vnfiles.ign.com/nwvault.ign.com/ ... eation.pdf However every time I try step 9 the checkbox from step 8 gets unselected. Not sure what I messed up so if anyone knows please give me a heads up.

It shouldn't.
Have you tried changing colors and then unselecting the checkboxes?

That's just it I can't get the color pallet up. Every time I click the button to it messes with the check box. I'm not sure but I think I missed something here.

Still having trouble with this? I just learned, maybe I can help you out.

Did you create a new blueprint/copy of the file before you tried to modify it? Also, when you click the piece you want to add, like say gloves or boots, you click the checkbox to view the actual item on your character while/after selecting 0, 1, 2, 3 etc. If you see the item on your character, it should be okay.

Edit: Yup, that's the problem. You need to create a new blueprint or copy an existing blueprint within the toolset before you modify it. I tried modifying an existing blueprint and it deselects the box in step 8 when I try to change the color blocks in step 9.
