Metallic

Description
The default metals all use flat color-palettes, and have a lot of repeats. This mod adds a unique palette for each metal-type, using various hues to simulate rust, reflections, and opalescence.

This will affect the visuals and color-descriptions for anything made of metal or the corresponding "native"-metal. Zero gameplay/balance changes.


This should generally not conflict with mods that modify metal material properties or add new metals. This mod should probably occur after such mods in load-order.

This WILL conflict with any other mods that add colors or modify the default palette.

Some day, I will get these awesome metal colors and other mods can modify the pallet and color for their own tiles and sprites the mod pertains to.

But Alas I am done whine & pining.

I really am enjoying this mod. Thanks Author

There was a problem with updating saves from v0.4 to v0.7 that has been resolved as of v0.8. If anyone experiences issues upgrading, please let me know.

@moon The mod works by modifying the palettes used by the metals, so it is kinda all or nothing. It is easy to disable the mod for specific metals though by removing the STATE_COLOR from the appropriate entry in inorganic_metallic.txt.

I love the metal bar symbols, but the metal floor colors don't match the aesthetic of my fort. Is there a way I can remove this part of the mod from my current fortress?
