I want to copy colors that I got from a color palette to other books that I have in my bookshelf. However, I can’t seem to do it, even if I try linking materials with other objects, it requires me to move the cursor around still to get the desired color. Anyone know how to do this?
(I know this is Blender, but what I’m trying to do is import the bookshelf I have to Roblox Studio for a film I want to create.)
Ello! – quite confused what your needing help with here.
Are you asking how to get the exact color you have in blender to studio . . . also its not gonna look exact if you are using (AgX) – I’d suggest you set it to standard!
Hello, thank you for your response. Actually, I downloaded a color palette so that I can use inside of Blender (using the image texture color inside of the object’s material) as I believe it is the only way to get colors to show up inside of studio. The problem is that I want to copy the color from one object to another inside of Blender, but if I were to copy the material directly, that wouldn’t happen, same case with doing Ctrl + L and clicking “Link Material”.
I’m not at home right now, but will be in 30 minutes so I can send a video recording if you still are struggling to understand what I’m saying.
The color isnt actually stored in the material – rather being that its determined by where the objects uvs were positioned on the texture you had.
So neighter linking or copying the material won’t change the color, cause the uv belongs to (THAT) mesh if you get what I am saying!
So if your are trying to make them use the same color, you could just simply move the uv island so they line up on the same location on your palette or could just copy it :')
Are you sure? This is what I have right now, a file called colorPalette.png open. The object is scaled down to 0%, so it is just a point, and I can move it to any color. The problem is copy+pasting to other books.
Hey @arvin192837 here is a video this will help you.
Quick Breakdown
you have you take the UVs from each book and drag it onto the color texture to basically reuse that color as for Linking materials will not work because its using the same texture so you cant link.
