Modifying Outfit Colours Doesn't Work

Post by Xarge VI »

The updated outfit colour modification options do not seem to work at all.
Furthermore, any outfit previously modified with this are stuck in the colours.

Except for the robes in the linked image which appears to be stuck in some other colours the ones that I selected, weirdly enough they had changed colours overnight but none of the other two outfits in my character's inv have experienced this change.

Are you certain the item is not per-part coloured?

If you are trying to change the base colour of the entire outfit and there is per-part colouring, it will not be reflected until you wipe the per-part colouring.

I'm pretty sure yes.
Robe is counted as one part in the "Per Part" colouring system as far as I am aware.

I tested this by buying a new outfit. I was able to modify the new outfit's base colours, but again when I used the per part system to modify robe's colour, it didn't work.

Furthermore I had to change robe shapes back and forth to see the colour changes I made with Prismatic Mirror.

There's a change Symphony did yesterday in Arelith Changes to lessen crashing. Check if you have it subscribed in Steam Workshop.

I don't have any haks or mods aside from the ones NWSynced from Arelith and I too have this issue. You can do it by per part but heck it does take a bit longer than it used to.

Checked some stuff since it is happening to me as well, and its the override that is causing that, cannot check which part so just hoping it will be looked into and hopefully fixed. Cheers.

So, I had the same problem.

I noted that the Cloth color kept being set to "63". Oddly enough, changing the color would update it on the item icon (as in your inventory) but not on the actual model. However, after doing that and switching the form of the robe (in this case) it actually did update to the selected color. Once updated, I could select the original form and I was back in business. Having logged off and logged back on, the color I chose stayed.

Using "-loadoutfit XXX", however, reverted it back to "63".

I am having the same issue with the robe model. The colors will not change and if you do load outfit it changes it to colors that shouldn't be there.

This is only effecting the Robe piece for me

Hey folks,

Sorry, I spent a lot of time reworking cloaks and robes yesterday so that they do not contribute to memory issues in NWN, allowing people to play longer hopefully without as many "no dmp" crashes, "area transition" crashes (loading lots of stuff with compromised memory), and more.

The cloaks were a particularly nasty issue because they don't have their real textures linked, they get re-linked with the cloakmodel.2da. This caused me some headaches, and I spent way too much time on them, the robes seemed a lot more straight forward, so I checked to make sure they all still worked for all races and genders and the two main phenotypes, and called it good.

Thank you for testing this for me and finding a bug, I have hopefully now fixed it so that you can change colors again normally.

While I was in there I did find some issues with the original models, like cloaks that were random brightnesses per race, and even a large female human cloak that never worked at all. If your cloak is suddenly 5% brighter, you're welcome. If you're angry about it, pick a darker color. What I have done is make the 10-15 unfinished models the same as the other 500 (genders, races, phenotypes), so it's only an issue because you were used to "broken", which is unfortunate, it never should have been in the game that way, but a lot of the DLA content, like the Castle Exterior Rural tileset, glowing helmets, tidal sea, horses, crystal weapons, and more, was a lot of rushed stuff that wasn't really finished or well tested, and contributes a lot of problems to the game.

However, keep in mind that this wasn't a "Wrong color" fix, this was a "people crash all of the time" fix that I didn't want to put in with the original broken models.

This is something I shipped suddenly and unannounced from the Arelith Changes Workshop item because I wanted to reduce global crashing and game corruption ASAP, and that seemed like a better platform for it for now.

Hi,

Apparently the bug is quite a persistant one. I still cannot change the colors of my armor by any means. Cheers!

To those that still have that bug, try reinstalling the override, it fixed it for me, thanks for the quick fix Symphony.
