I have inputted the numbers under actorvariant color changed,saved and compiled my map, but when I go ingame, they have not changed color, what is wrong?

does the biped have a multi?

multi? Explain.

go into its shaders and see if it has a multipurpose map

under the gbx model, where the shaders are, I went through all of the, nothing had multi in it. Now what?

lol. You gotta add the multi. To make a quick, but crappy one, just get the regular bitmap and make the green channel all black. compile it and there's your (crappy) multi.

This is for the actorvariant, incase you didn't know, idk how to make a multi even though you just explained.

I will just use regular colored biped if I have to :(

Download this: http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=2028
Open the bitmap of the skin of the actor variant
save it as a file type that you can open in a picture editor (mspaint, pdn, gimp, etc...)
open it and edit it to be what ever color you want (if its black and white you can apply Sepia to give it some color then adjust the hue to get the color you want.)
save it as a .tif (NAME IT SOMETHING DIFFERENT FROM THE ORIGINAL)
recompile it with tool
now you can either swap it out for the original bitmap OR edit the shader to use your new version (or make a new shader - you will have to make/edit several files if you make a new one but then you can have both colors).

Already fixed it. Thanks gamma, and thanks ghilli for trying to help but gamma ninjad you :D. (well atleast over xfire)
