~Changeable Rugs Tutorial~

*Making Coloured Rugs:


- Make sure you have a dds plugin for GIMP/Photoshop
- Open your chosen rug texture in GIMP/Photoshop (You may have to use
 Fallout Mod Manager to extract Skyrim Textures to a folder https://youtu.be/KkmHx-ceRoU)
- Change the hue to the desired colour
- Save it as a new texture


- Open the CK and make Texturesets for your chosen colours (choose your textures) Video for Creating Texturesets:

- Right-click your chosen rug, click on 'Edit Base' and copy the mesh file path

-  Create a Static object and paste the file path in 'Model' (Give it an appropriate ID)

- Right-click in the 'Alternate Textures' section and select your Textureset

- Repeat this process for your other rug



*Coloured Rolled Rugs:

- Copy the file path of your chosen rolled rug mesh

- Paste the file path into a new Activator object (the Name should be: 'Rug' and the Activate text overide should be: 'Change')

- Confirm the object then right-click and edit

- Paste the file path in 'Model'

- Right-click in the 'Alternate Textures' section and select your Textureset

- Repeat this process for your secondary rug



*Script: (Apply this script to both rolled rugs)
#NOTE# You can put either colour in the script




ObjectReference Property BlueRugRolled Auto

Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef)

If Self == BlueRugRolled
	BlueRugRolled.disable()
Else	
	BlueRugRolled.enable()
EndIf
EndEvent



*Setting Up Parents: (TIP: Use the – key to set parents for multiple objects) #NOTE# The Primary rolled rug represents the rug that will be initially enabled when in-game.


- Set the Red (Primary) rolled rug as the parent of the Red rug/s and tick the 'opposite' box

- Set the Blue (Secondary) rolled rug as the parent of the Blue rug/s and tick the 'opposite' box 



- Set the Secondary rolled rug as the parent of the Primary rolled rug
- Tick the 'Set Enabled State to Opposite of Parent' & 'Initially Disabled' boxes


You should now be able to swap rugs. Good luck! :)
