Trying to get the below color sets working, can someone please advise as so far nothing has worked for me on server

[AnyColourSets]
UseCustomGlobalSets=True
CustomGlobalColourSetChance=100
GlobalColourSets=DinoColorSet_Neon_DO_ACS_C,DinoColorSet_NeonDartFrog_DO_ACS_C,DinoColorSet_Vibrant_DO_ACS_C,DinoColorSet_Cosmic_DO_ACS_C

Unfortunately, levels can't be checked at the time that the colours are applied, so that's not possible without adding in extra systems.
Dye colours are not supported in ASE (yet, I intend to backport it at some point). Need to see your whole config to see why the excludeclasses isn't working

Im using UseGlobalExcludeClasses=True and "GlobalExcludeClasses=" but doesnt work for me. Dinos in the list still spawning with global sets... Im tired of trying different configuration to fix this.

I also have another question. If I set DisableDyeColours=True, Can I use dye sets on specifid dinos with "ColourSetsToUse="?

Can I use it to change the colors of high level dinos? Like "dinos after lvl 100 are flourescent" so we can identify good dinos to tame instead of searching every lvl on every dino.

I tried using the color IDs on the mod wiki page with the console, but they don't seem to work on evolved. Is there a way to use them with console commands in evolved?

Hey, I have a few questions!

Are "colour sets" the groups of themed colours listed on the mod's wiki?

Will colours for each region be chosen from all possible themes or just one so it looks cohesive?

Also, are all these colour sets/themes enabled by default when I download the mod? I know there are many customization options but I can't edit any files as I play ASE through a cloud gaming service.

Yes

Does this correctly assign wyvern and rock drake eggs their parent's color?
Paradox 42 9 Mar, 2024 @ 1:10pm 
How can i choose bright colors only for all dinos? Whats the config?

how do i colour my dinos?
Eclipse  [author] 3 Jan, 2024 @ 2:00pm 
activeevent=none launch option, or setting None for activeevent on the menu or in GUS.ini. not mod related, it's ark's events.

Hello, ive removed the mod but there are still coloured dinos spawning. How to turn it completly off? I want to remove all the colours and just have the normal colours again but how?

Can you recommend me a brightly colored one?
Eclipse  [author] 10 Oct, 2023 @ 2:23pm 
Depends on what you want to do. By default some dinos will get colours from some sets. You need to dinowipe, and it wont work on simplespawners.
墨筵moyan 10 Oct, 2023 @ 2:21pm 
I've tried it many times, but it doesn't work.Need to change the file, right?
Eclipse  [author] 10 Oct, 2023 @ 1:20pm 
Yes
墨筵moyan 10 Oct, 2023 @ 1:08pm 
Is this still available?
ErzaRotdrache 21 Sep, 2023 @ 4:20pm 
Pretty nice colours. That is an amazing colour mod. Pls keep that mod updated :D.
Varia 27 Jun, 2023 @ 12:44pm 
Thanks for the detailed explanation. Without a good option I understand your stance. Hopefully all the colors are more easily accessible during ASA.
Eclipse  [author] 27 Jun, 2023 @ 8:23am 
any other methods of application would thus have to be completely custom through buffs, and i'm hesitant of the performance impact of re-applying (since coloursets are gunna run regardless of whether im going to overwrite it all anyway); re-created colourset logic (totalling tens of thousands of times after a dinowipe, since most maps have 30k to 60k dinos even on dino count 1)
it's not even like it's easily clampable to 'only buffing 5% of dinos' since buff application is on a per-class, all or nothing basis

it's something i've given a lot of thought to, but there's no really good option
Eclipse  [author] 27 Jun, 2023 @ 8:20am 
Because it is so far from easy to apply to dinos. they don't work like normal colours, so they cannot integrate *at all* with the colourset system.
colours have 2 arrays in the PGD: normal colours, and dye colours. the normal colours array includes the value itself, and crucially, a name. the dyes list is a list of items, nothing more. not even the value of the colour, which is stored in the item itself.

defining the colours used in a set is strictly a set of colour names. so with no names, there's no integration. while i *could* duplicate the dye colours into the pgd, allowing identical colours to be used with the system, that
a) would make the mod not clean because removing the mod leaves dinos with IDs that are no longer assigned to a colour
b) additions don't stack nicely and things such as changing load order change the colours dinos have as a result
Varia 27 Jun, 2023 @ 7:57am 
Is it possible to add the royalty or purple dye colors? They register in game with the color codes 211 and 213. There's also an awesome pink, code 210. It has always struck me as strange that they weren't used for any of the WC's official color events given how easy it is to apply to dinos.

But I keep getting dinosaurs with base colors... is there any configuration so that they all come out with color?

Hello, I don't understand English very well and it's difficult for me to configure the mod, how can I set all the dinos to have all the event colors and not the vanilla colors of the game and that 100% of the dinos come out with color? Thank you
TheMeltedJedi 21 Apr, 2023 @ 5:05pm 
Really loving this mod! I recently discovered it and configured all dinos to spawn with the DinoColorSet_ACSNeon_C color set, and I love the look of them! Might keep tweaking in some other variants and spawn chances too. Thanks for this cool mod
Eclipse  [author] 25 Dec, 2022 @ 3:39am 
Ooh, those are great!
Bunny Noah 24 Dec, 2022 @ 3:49pm 
I have some ideas for custom colorsets if you don't mind me bending your ear for a moment.
- Albino (8,18,19,32,36,55) Self explanatory, various whites and light gray with a touch of either red or yellow for flesh
-Melanism (14,20,27,29,31,34,35,56,,62,79,80,81,82) All of the darkest colors with some variation in hue
-Leucism/Erythrism (10,11,17,20,21,22,32,37,38,39,40,42,43,44,71,76) Blonde and red colorations
I hope these sound interesting enough to consider!
Eclipse  [author] 18 Dec, 2022 @ 4:59am 
:D Glad you enjoy it!

Me: Ooo, Ark! Let's play single player! Yay!
Ark: IT'S CHRISTMAAAAAAAAAS
Me: OH MERCY MY EYES
Me: (installs Eclipse's mod)
Me: Pretty Ark! Yay!
This is awesome. Thank you so much.
Eclipse  [author] 7 Dec, 2022 @ 1:49am 
Depends what savefile I'm playing. On my main singleplayer, I have the sets mostly vanilla, with a rare chance of any of the mod's custom sets. My second save is much more open, with lots of custom colours, particularly on my favourite dinos, some like lunar salmon and glowbugs having 90% chances so they're almost always spawning in vibrant rainbows. My private server follows similarly, with a fair amount of customisation for specific creatures, but lower chances overall aside from sets that I'm using to mostly replace the natural set
Bunny Noah 6 Dec, 2022 @ 5:29pm 
Alrighty then! Do you mind sharing your personal settings that you play with? I'm curious to see how you like your dinos to spawn as!
Eclipse  [author] 6 Dec, 2022 @ 1:12pm 
While i'd love a generator, it's a completely different kind of coding to what I'm familiar with, so unlikely it'll happen

And I have an idea for potentially customising the ''biome'' sets via spawner colourset, so that might come at some point, but it would be limited to just one set per entry
Bunny Noah 5 Dec, 2022 @ 11:28am 
Ah okay. Still an awesome mod! Maybe you could make an ini generator for those who want to easily customize their spawns? No problem if you can't of course.
Eclipse  [author] 5 Dec, 2022 @ 12:53am 
Just genesis, other maps don't have any usable indicator
Bunny Noah 4 Dec, 2022 @ 4:13pm 
Can the biome INI settings be used for any biome in the game? Or just Genesis ones? I like the custom sets that are biome themed and think would look cool if they only spawned on dinos in those regions!
PinkSamm 9 Nov, 2022 @ 5:36pm 
thank you so much!!

You may also want to disable global sets with

UseCustomGlobalSets=False
PinkSamm 7 Nov, 2022 @ 12:57pm 
so question if i wanted every dodo and parasaur lets say to only spawn like 100% of the time with a certain color set or two how would that look sorry this all confuses me honestly
KonaManta 10 Sep, 2022 @ 4:12pm 
Thanks! I'm excited to get back into this mod again.
Eclipse  [author] 10 Sep, 2022 @ 11:25am 
yes, alongside other things like brownish raptor and parasaur sets. It's every single set in the game + the mod
KonaManta 9 Sep, 2022 @ 10:59pm 
I think I've asked this in the past, but that was many updates ago and I know the ini's been updated.

If my ini looks like this:

[AnyColourSets]
UseAllSets=True
UseCustomGlobalSets=True
CustomGlobalColourSetChance=5

Will that allow all colour sets to spawn, both the vanilla/event ones and your custom ones?
xradar83 26 Aug, 2022 @ 1:32pm 
Yea but that resets if you die
Eclipse  [author] 26 Aug, 2022 @ 1:24pm 
You can paint them I suppose
xradar83 26 Aug, 2022 @ 1:06pm 
Thanks

Dang, ive been looking all over but can only find pugnacia. Dont wanna completely overhaul my game though lol
Eclipse  [author] 26 Aug, 2022 @ 7:11am 
Not within the scope of this mod, player colouration doesn't work like dinos
