Scenery colours not right
« on: January 14, 2008, 06:16:08 am »
Im making a climbing map and when I design a image and place it in the scenery file and place it in polyworks the colour goes darker. Im using the very bright yellow colour but its goes like a dark maroon yellow. Anyone know how to solve this? I tried saving in different formats but it just wont work.

You don't have to place scenery in the Polyworks scenery folder by the way. It may be perhaps that the yellow color is indeed making the image darker so use white. Otherwise, unless you have so layer over the whole map of just some super bright background distorting your vision, I dunno.

Is it a dark scenery? That could explain your problem.
If you want to colour it accurately, I'd suggest using a white or very light coloured scenery. If the scenery is a darker colour to begin with, it will turn out a much darker colour than you have selected on your Palette. Dark sceneries are impossible to make lighter by colouring them in Polyworks, but light sceneries can go pretty much any colour you want them to be. Same as textures, thats why I prefer textures that are light grays or whites (unless I'm multitexturing)
