SD Chan, colored black with gradient - Dynamic

[funfriend]

I took exampleMod.fla and replaced the colors to give her black hair. I also added a gradient, which I haven't seen on any vector hairs yet.

Again, I attached the source file, which I think ought to be common practice.

Cool idea, well done!

Also good to see that you keep your source files CS5-friendly, but for my part I´m more hesitant to release my source files. :-\

I´m more hesitant to release my source files.

If you post your sources, someone might improve upon your work or use it to create something else, resulting in more/better imports. Isn't that the whole purpose of this forum?

I don't know about you, but I'm not a fan of other people taking complete credit for my work. And it'll happen, because someone will get the file without knowing who made it.

 

[rufferto]

Anon´s got a point there.

And not every "improvement" will result in better imports.
I´m putting a lot of work into my imports and don´t like to see wacky things *cough*breast graffitis*cough* happening to them.

Today I learned: Flash gives you much more control over gradients than I originally thought.

I took your source file and made a brown-haired version:

Hey, cool! When I was converting the original SD-chan to black, I used "find and replace colors", and that sped things up a lot. People could probably whip up lots of different colors quickly.

Today I learned: Flash can "find and replace colors". :'(

But you're Anonymous, wouldn't crediting your work be kind of... pointless?

Hey, let's all just bring up stuff from over a month ago. Woohoo.
And no, it wouldn't ;D (in case you are joking)

I don't normally make stuff, but when I do... I WILL put my name on it.

Are you planning on making a black version of the SD chan 2 hair?

Are you planning on ...

This thread was created in 2011. The creator of this hairstyle ( F funfriend) hasn't visited the forum since 2013. Browsing through old threads for content is a great idea, but please be aware of the context when doing so. Older mods may not work correctly with the latest version of the game; old authors may no longer be active. It's a good idea to check the most-recent-activity date for a user before asking them for favors. If someone seems to be absent, then you may find better luck by posting a Revision thread instead.

making a black version of the SD chan 2 hair?

You can Shift+Click on dynamic hair strands to hide them. If you Shift+Click on both strands of the black SDChan hair (note: the rear one is slightly difficulty to hit), then it becomes black SDChan2 hair.

If you're using the hairstyle in the context of a Character Folder (or a conventional Saved Character with the moreClothing mod) then you can automate the hair-strand-hiding via charcode customization.

If you're finding the whole process very difficult or confusing then you can post a Revision thread and ask for an edited SWF file.

Thanks for the tip stuntcock and sorry for any inconvenience

Asking for an hair mod is a bit of overkill while with this custom data, you can make nearly any hair black:

hairhsl:0,0,0.15,1

The same thing is made by changing Her hair Tint in the Custom tab. S (saturation) = 0 removes the colour and L (lighting) = 15 makes the hair darker (0 would make it completly dark).
For info, H (hue) changes the colour, from red to blue, like on a rainbow and C (contrast) changes the... contrast!
