[Solved][ModulateColor] How to make a colorizable image?

[Darkminus]

Hello!

I've got a question about how to use images with modulatecolor. (I'm noob at design, be kind with me.)

Let's say I have a 32px x 32px square with a color gradient in it. My goal would be to get an image which can be colorized with "any" color (because I want to use it with team/clublink color)

Is it possible to do this?

Sry if this is bad explained..

Thank you in advance for your answers!

And then you can modulate it with "RRGGBB" to whatever you want.

EDIT: Code example:

Code: Select all

<quad posn="1.6 -1 0.03" sizen="5.25 5.25" modulatecolor="00AAFF" image="http://static.undef.name/ingame/info-bar/icon-players.png"/>

Hello

Thank you for your answer!

However that's not really the answer I was waiting for. I already used modulate color but with "nadeo" images which colorizes correctly.

In my case it is a small square, with a gradient (vertical, darker to brighter)

When I try to colorize it with modulatecolor, it goes all black. I wanna get it colorized with my team colors.

Here's an example of what I have :

Here I use 2 images, my goal is to get one "generic" image to make it colored as I want.

I hope I explained it better!

Thank you

For my "Tachometer" Plugin in UASECO i use this image
and modulate it with "FFF700" into yellow.

Interesting, this works correctly.

To make a "multi usage" image, I made a 1px width 500px height image, so I can make squares, rectangles, etc... with "any" width. But when I change color modulation, it goes black. Have you got an explaination for this? Maybe do I do something bad?

Hmmm... maybe your PNG is not a PNG-24?

You should create an greyscale image, where elements to be coloured are pure green (HUE must be green, saturation can be any).

When in script just use Vec3 CMlQuad::Colorize to change color of green elements (can modify to any color, even white).
