Colorful TWBs?

Wasn't sure where to ask this, but does anyone have any true warm bloods with nice color mutations? I'd like to get some nice color mutations going with mine but so far no luck.

Depends on what exactly you want... my Abyss Dragons are TWB and can be quite colorful, especially after a few generations. There are lots of genetic colors in the starter pack.

It's not that hard to genetically engineer colors into otherwise normal members of your favorite TWB breed(s), too - actually it's probably one of the easiest gene edits.

I have a breed of colourful unreleased TWB Ettins. I could upload a couple of those if you'd like?

I was actually hoping for regular norn breeds, sorry I forgot to specify.

What would I need to make the edit myself?

Load the genome into the genetics kit then go to the "Gene Editor" tab and find the "Pigment" (there are three kinds, blue green and red) and "Pigment Bleed" genes. Move around the sliders in these genes until you are happy with them, then go to the "Export" tab and click on "Lay egg".

If you want to get a specific color or try out values before entering them into the genome, this agent could be helpful.

To use it, click on it until it reaches the breed you want, and then use this cheat code:

targ hots tint (red value) (green value) (blue value) (rotation value) (swap value)

The values should be numbers between 0 and 255. 128 is neutral. For tints, if you have less than 128 of a color, you're subtracting that color. If you have more, you're adding that color. Rotation/swap is a bit more complicated, and I recommend playing with those values just to see what happens. Just keep in mind that 128 is also neutral for rotation/swap, and 0 and 255 values can create some interesting effects.

An example tint:

targ hots tint 175 100 255 128 128

This should give a purple tint.
An important note: before using a code, write it down! Once you've tinted an agent, you can't see its color values anymore. If you discover a really pretty combination and don't remember it or have it written, it'll be gone.

Creatures uses the additive system for its tints, so combining red and blue gives magenta, red and green gives yellow, and green and blue gives cyan. Mix them all together, and you get white. Take them all away, you get black.

I hope this helps. You can get some really pretty looks by playing with the tints and rotation/swap

I might as well start breeding some TWBs myself just to help populate the adoptions section with some interesting TWB mutations, now that you mention it.

I know you were asking dark but I personally think you should! [ngrin] I'm sure quite a few people around here would love to have them in their world.

Hm. I tried downloading the genetics editor but when I try to start it it says it can't start because d3duim.dll is missing from my computer?

Have you run the remaster kit/patch yet?
