Graying out a Character

Hey Rainy,

I want to gray out a live2D character when they're not talking (like in fire emblem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uunZ14DnJE&list=PLrbkJ3FwVRbu3EgxJ-X2QZvWY6eo3H04v&ab_channel=justonegamr). I am wondering what the best method for that is?

I have taken a look, and it seems that updating the material to allow light to impact them would be the best way, as I could then just shine a gray light on the characters that are not currently talking (let me know if there is a better way).

I tried to follow the manual here: https://rainyrizzle.github.io/en/AdvancedManual/AD_MaterialLibrary.html

But I bumped into issues despite following the steps to update the material and re-bake the character, even though I think I've set things up correctly - the game view has a black silhouette while the scene view shows the character.

What step am I missing? Best Regards, Clement

Sweet! Controlling it directly seems like a much better option :) Especially since there's an easy option to restore it to default.

Love all the functionality you've got here. Apologies for all the questions, I do find it a bit hard to navigate the info pages to find the right places to look

That's okay!

As the tool has been updated for a long time, the number of functions has increased, so the manual has become quite large.

Also, depending on the type of project, the information users need is different, so we had to write as many manuals as possible.

That's why it may be difficult for users to quickly find the information they want on the homepage.

We know this, so feel free to ask questions! :)

If it's in the manual, we'll point you to the manual, and if necessary, we'll provide additional explanations.

Thanks!
