Currently making a kids bedroom set. All the models have a plain white base texture with shading and highlights, no colors added yet. All the textures look the exactly the same, they all have the exact same hue/brightness of white, however in game the meshes all have a different hue, like something else adds color. They all should be the exact same white. So my question is: Is there something in blender or S4S what adds color to a mesh? Like a light or ambient color which can be changed? I don't make my models in blender, I make them in 3DSM and then import them to Blender.  |

It seems to be the effect of dynamic lighting. You could see this on the sectional sofas until maxis changed their shader to counters.  Pic by TudTuds. That's all I can say without seeing your packages. |

You could check to see if the objects are all using the same shader as each other as well because they can make changes to how colours display.

I have seen the shading options in S4S but I don't know what and how to change it. It seems to be the effect of dynamic lighting.

I tried moving the furniture around, but it did not change the colors. |

The problem was indeed the material! Some meshes were 'Phong' and others were 'Cabinet'. I changed all the furniture - and all the LODs stages - to 'Cabinet' (just personal preference, cabinet seems cool, phong has a more warm look, plus I want them to somewhat match the HD furniture which are also 'Cabinet'). I left the matresses (separated from bedframe) to 'Phong', those doesn't have to match because it's a different material anyway   |

So glad you managed to solve it. Sorry I didn't come back sooner to see your question about changing shaders.

I just didn't know if I could just change the shader from the dropdown options or if I had to change more. Appareantly just the dropdown works fine. Thanks!  |
