[General] Q: Making unit teamcolored

[Wayshan]

Hey guys, I was wondering how can I make unit teamcolored. I still haven't found any tutorial about this, but I know it can be done. Can someone post me a link for tutorial or exlain me how this works?

Is it possible to make unit teamcolored even though it doesn't has any "white" place in textures?

Thanks for your time, guys!

You can see in the Art - Team Color and set the color that you want.

You cant make a unit teamcolored if the model has no teamcolored texture.
Idk how to make that texture though.

As Wietlol said, if the texture doesn't have team color then no you can't - not without re-texturing. However if you wanted to add a team-colored "hero"glow to a non team colored unit you could try this:

Using a hero isn't suitable if its a non Hero unit

Thanks, guys. Does anyone know how to create this teamcolored texture?

I kinda did it the hard way in my map. I had to get the skin of those models, and put transparency with shading on some areas for the team color to be visible.. I also had to get the model and edit them via text editor just to add layers so that Team Color layers are added.

I extracted them using Magos. I edited the skin using Paint.NET. I edited the model using a text editor. I converted the model to .mdl using Magos. (You need to convert the model to .mdl so that it can be opened via text editor.)

Oh, great! Don't you know about any tutorial with screenshots? I'm afraid I am not able to make it by just so brief description.
Plus how much time did it take for you to create one teamcolored unit?

Thx again for your time, guys!
