About this mod
This mod improves the outfit color palettes in ACU by making them more realistic.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
Most outfits have been improved while some, like the original Arno colors, have gone untouched (Outside of the leather color). All of the leather colors have been edited to be more realistic, with the majority being a brown color.
This mod was made possible with Halzoid 98's Outfit Manager, if you want to create your own color palettes check out that mod. You can also copy and paste the contents of "ParisPalettes.xml" into your Outfit Manager "Export.xml" for a stronger starting point while designing your own color schemes.
Install:
- If you're like me and prefer a video explanation, here's a video by Halzoid 98 explaining how to import custom color palettes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlYYcPMSWoY (This video is specifically for his mod Outfit Manager, so you'll have to read in between the lines to install Paris Palettes.)
