pz2 editing

Oldminer

( SOLVED) I am using DS4.5 and am trying to work up a pz2 for a png file I have developed. I can set the Diffuse, Specular and Ambient colors OK within the pz2 but can’t set the color strengths from the pz2. Where can I find the parameters for this adjustment, or is it even possible?

You've already found them. The colour specs in a .pz2 are defined as four numbers for standard RGB (Red, Green, Blue) colours, as a decimal value between 0 and 1, in steps of 1/256. The fourth number (or maybe the first number, I can't remember for sure) in each four-number group is the colour strength value, again decimal from 0 to 1.

It's the fourth number, SpottedKitty.

Oh good, it's been a while since I did any hand-hacking of the actual colours in a .pz2 so I wasn't entirely sure I remembered it right. Glad I could help.

Slight correction, the numbers for colours are between 0-255

On the Grayscale:
0=Black
255=White

An RGB Value across the RGB Scale is identical.
