Okay before I get into it I just wanna let you know there's an easier way to change the color of it other than making it tintable. It is a little inconvenient though. If you have photoshop or gimp you can download the nvidia texture tools (which you're gonna need to make it tintable too) and extract the diffuses for the armor and just color them how you want in the program. Okay back to tinting. If you want to add an extra tint slot you should read this . I can't find the qunari armor so I'm going to use the elven one as the example. I will also be using photoshop as I have no expierence with gimp but I'm sure the gist will be the same if that's what you're using. imgur album here of some of the steps and the finished product in case you need a visual

  • open up the mod maker and go to da3>factions>elvahn>appearances>uni_em_dalish_arc and export the tint map. I also recommend you export the diffuse.
  • once you have the texture tools installed open up both the files and choose 8bit when prompted.
  • copy and paste the diffuse over the tint map
  • you'll see that on the tint map some things aren't colored in and some are. red is the main cloth, blue is the secondary cloth and green is metal and leather.
  • So to start with the sleeveless coat take the magic wand tool/quick selection and go over the coat on the diffuse layer till it's all outlined.
  • Hide the diffuse layer and click on the layer the tint map is on and go the the channels.
  • Choose which channel you want. I wanted to tint it to be great bear skin so I chose the green channel to make it leather.
  • Use the paint bucket to fill in your outline with white
  • Go back and repeat the process for any other part or the armor you want to be tintable.
  • When you're done make sure you have all the channels selected again so everything is red blue and green. Delete the diffuse layer and save it as a DDS file.
  • Import it back into the modmaker and check it out at the tinting table :thumbsup:

I still made the mod for the dalish armor if you want to look at that first but idk if you'll like what tints I assigned to certain parts. www.nexusmods.com/dragonageinquisition/mods/1565/?
