Body paint

i did not check but pretty sure there is something to allow a color you use in paint to stay that color in game. Probably have something to do with masks.

Some wearable already use this feature.

Looked at the files quick, seems to be doable by working on the base model texture instead of the paint/tattoo.

Would need to Add the texture you want to keep as is in the _CM.dds file then make it white in the GM_MM.dds file.

Well now they have too. Giving one Oortian a purpose is good enough for me. :crossed_fingers:come on Dev Team. Just like the a Reapers Trials. ā€œYou can do it!ā€
@Leahlemoncakes @james. Hahaha :raised_hands: :fist:

The thing is, can they ā€˜legallyā€™ add your work to the game?

Even if you say ā€œgo aheadā€, I donā€™t think they can.

My attempt at making a starry night skin. Didnā€™t work as it was supposed to but the effort is there xD.

Yes they can. Iā€™ll sign anything they need if itā€™s a legal issue. But I think it might be the flood of other people wanting there own designs in the game if they allow mine. :man_shrugging: But Iā€™m staying positive. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. And man am I Squeaking.

Honestly, if it was that simple, Iā€™d make 3D models of furniture for them, Iā€™d submit sh!t for free, I donā€™t care.

For Creativerse, I tried sharing stuff with Playfulcorp, but they couldnā€™t accept, even if they liked what I did.
For the record, I tried submitting stuff like an Arctek bed :


If you know anything about CV, this type of design should speak a bit to you. ^^
Itā€™s inspired by this :

Nope. Never played it. Adding assets would be more work then adding a texture file. Further more models could have a mesh limit for assets like decorative items. Either way that thing looks cool.

Get on the skeleton body paint band wagon. Lol.

I mean, I wouldnā€™t go out of my way to use the skeleton body-paint, but Iā€™m all up for the devs adding it to the game, donā€™t go thinking otherwise. :stuck_out_tongue:
Iā€™ve made my own texture for the paint stains, and Iā€™m using it, it makes me super happy to log my potion-maker, now. Feels like itā€™s finally my own guy!

Woah what. You in creative mode?

No on live but i only can see that skin. Its a modified (Motion) skin and it takes the skinā€™s color palette.

Maybe one day we can all see your skin.

The devs would have to (Iā€™d guess) make us able to upload custom body-paint textures through the Steam Workshop. Currently, weā€™re limited to the existing number of body-paints to replace by our own.

Here are two body-paint textures I made :

https://www.goblinounours.fr/Boundless/base_race_tattoo_motion_gm_mm.dds

Put the texture files in this folder on PC :
ProgramFiles\steamapps\common\Boundless\assets\characters\base_race\textures

Jeggings + logo T

I saved mine as the motion tattoo because thatā€™s the active one that I have. You may have a different tattoo file.

Please save a copy of the original file before overwriting yours. This way, you can change it back if you donā€™t like it.

Only you will be able to see this texture, since the file saves locally & no one else has it.

Geez does every person in the game use the motion tattoo?
