Description:

The default metals all use flat color-palettes, and have a lot of repeats. This mod adds a unique palette for each metal-type, using various hues to simulate rust, reflections, and opalescence.
This will affect the visuals and color-descriptions for anything made of metal or the corresponding "native"-metal. Zero gameplay/balance changes.
The divine metals each have new unique palettes. Special thanks to zippy38 for the color baselines.

Compatibility

This should generally not conflict with mods that modify metal material properties or add new metals. This mod should probably occur after such mods in load-order.

This WILL conflict with any other mods that add colors or modify the default palette.

Known Issues
  • dwarfs can have preferences for metallic-colors
  • the metallic-colors are available in dye-mixing
  • migrants and NPCs wear items dyed metallic-colors
  • traders bring cloth dyed metallic-colors
