Gun Metal Colours

[foraging for nuts 3]

inject some colour into the weapon of your choice i found the mod blackjack done on nexus where he added copper and tempered steel to weaponcomponents.meta

so here is a bigger colour palette for you to try (so get crazy)

Antler_Smooth  Bone_Matte  Ivory_Smooth  Ivory_Polished  Leather_Rough  Leather_Smooth  Steel_Blackened_Oxidized  Steel_Blued_Oxidized  Steel_Browned_Oxidized  Brass_Oxidized  Bronze  Bronze_Oxidized  Copper_Oxidized  Gold_Oxidized  Brass_Red  Brass_Rough  Lead  Nickel_Oxidized  Silver_Oxidized  Steel  Steel_Rough  Steel_Oxidized  Iron_Oxidized  Pearl_Rough  Pearl  Drain  Trail  Disorient  Wound  Confuse  Generic_SemiMetal    Poison  Blood_Dry  Blood_Fresh  Blood_Sticky  Enamel_White  Enamel_Yellow  Enamel_Blue  Enamel_Green  Enamel_Red

 

if you look at nexus i added two pictures there on blackjacks post which shows a couple of the colours available

https://www.nexusmods.com/reddeadredemption2/mods/623

 

To use these colours first download blackjacks mod extract the weaponcomponents.meta open it in notepad
search for the colour you wish to replace repeatedly (there are a few) and overwrite each one you find with 
the new colour then save your file and follow blackjacks instructions as to the location to put the file

Red Dead Redemption 2\lml\replace\update\common\packs\base\data\ai

the standard file colours are: 

Iron  Nickel  Steel_Blued  Steel_Blackened  Steel_Browned  Brass  Silver  Gold

 

Brass has already been replaced by Copper  and  Steel_Blued is replaced with Steel_Tempered

so originaly the blued steel would look like this <Name>Weapon_Steel_Blued</Name>

and once changed would appear as <Name>Weapon_Steel_Tempered</Name>

if you would like to change the tempered steel to poison it would look like this <Name>Weapon_Poison</Name>

 

Below is one that i've edited already with the following in order from left to right

Bronze Enamel_White Steel_Blued Blood_Fresh Copper Bone_Matte Poison Gold

Note: take care if editing the iron colour as you may end up altering the ironwood handle by mistake
