Using Colors on Permanent Bonuses - How does it work? #39

Closed perfectnarcosis closed 3 years ago

Hello! First of all I wanted to say the work on the editor is awesome, I almost use it daily for the last few weeks! :)

I was wondering however how applying Colors using the Permanent Bonuses feature works? I've been trying all sorts of equipment items (generated loot, unique items) and I never seem to be able to get it to look different in-game.

I was wondering if maybe I'm missing something obvious? Or if could you give me an example of a working combination?

Many thanks in advance!

Hello !

From my testing, you can change the color of few items, mainly those with unique names. The game ignores this bonus for almost all other items.

You don't have to do anything in particular, just add the bonus to the item. If the game does not ignore it, you'll see the changes the next time the save is loaded.

As far as I know, it is not possible to force the game to use this bonus without modifying game files or without using mods.

Thank you for that answer NovFR! I thought I had tried on a Unique item as well, but I will experiment some more then.
