THIS MOD HAS UNDERGONE A RESTRUCTURING AGAIN!

This mod has been entirely remade to iron out some of the annoying issues that existed in the last version, as a consequence, the colours will not be exactly the same as they used to be, however I had tried my hardest to get them to match! So what has changed?

• The way the mod works under the hood has been changed completely, from a technical point, this mod now uses Cloth Mask textures to allow me to change stone colours through code rather than through texture files. This means the file sizes have been reduced, and all the colour paks are now quite small.
• Issues with the piercings turning black outside of dialogue should now be fixed.
• Colour paks will no longer conflict with one another, meaning you can keep multiple files in your load order should you decide to change piercing colours, whichever colour pak is loaded last will be the one applied.
• Colour paks will no longer be active when not in your active mods, this means you can keep them on hand in your mod folder instead of only having one at a time.
  

If you are updating from the previous version make sure you replace both the CORE and whichever colour pak you were using, DO NOT use old colour paks with the new core version. The pak files should still have the same UUIDs so it should be safe to replace them.

What does this mod do?

This mod includes various edits to the texture and material files of the vanilla piercings, allowing for a range of colours for you to pick from. There are currently 4 metal colours: Gold, Silver, Rose, and Black. As well as 7 stone colours: Black, Blue, Red, Green, Purple, Pink, and White.

As this mod edits the vanilla materials for these files, anything that uses the default piercing material will be compatible!

Compatible & high recommended mods:

Trips' Accessory Collection
Jerinski's Piercing Edits
Just Piercings

Each Colour Pak comes with the files for the basic piercings AND barbarian piercings, so there's no need for extra files.

How to install

Step 1: grab the CORE pak file from the downloads, put it into your mod folder, preferably using BG3MM, and add to your active load order. (json files are included for manual installs)

Step 2: grab a COLOUR pak of your choice (Gold, Silver, Rose, Dark) the stone colour options are inside each folder. Load this after the CORE pak, and enjoy!


Old & Optional Files

Under the old files you will find the previous loose file version, if you were using the loose version and it was working fine there is no need for you to change to the PAK version, as it does the same thing, it was only made to simplify the installation process.

There is also an optional loose file to colour match the metal found on the small Tiefling horns, so you can match your piercings, this will effect other NPCs using these horns.
