📋 About This Mod
What is this mod?
Dyes made to give colorus from NPC and Outfits. Includes custom parameters for modded outfits.
Supports these extra parameters: GlowColor, GlowColour, AddedColor, Accent_Color, Highlight_Color, BaseColor, InnerColor, OuterColor, Primary, Secondary and Tertiary.
These parameters support modded outfits using these parameters plus allows you to dye some vanilla items parameters that normally don't get dyed.
Location in Game
Whether starting a new game or continuing a current one, you will receive the containers with the dyes in them when you first go to Camp after installing the mod. Doesn't have to be long rest, just a visit to camp. They can then be found in the travellers chest.
Switching to Latest Version
This mod was converted for use in the Toolkit, so I can further build on it via it. I have tried to make this as seamless as possible for you switching to these new versions.
However when switching to the latest version of the mod please make sure to remove the pak of the original mod if you got it from here previously.
Patch 6 of the mod will remain under old versions.
How do I install this mod?
Place the .pak in your `C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods`
Please use either BG3 Mod Manager or the new in game mod manager to enable your mods. You can also use vortex, but due to one I personally don't use, I can't help troubleshoot any issues you may run into.
Thank you for your understanding.
