I have a custom character that I'm trying to build that is very much like Walter - so I'd use the Walter body with the shirt and tie, but I want to change the color of the shirt and tie to specific colors.

I can't figure out where to do this. I'm guessing I have to load the sprites into an external program to make the changes, but in the Character Composer when I select a sprite, the "Launch External Program" button isn't even active.

How can I accomplish a specific color change of sprite elements in the provided G2 characters?

External editor is only available for non-sprite characters, and I believe it's only limited to morph based heads now. For sprite elements, there is no way to specifically set a color, instead you have to use Hue, Saturation, and Brightness and should be available in the character composer.

You can change the color of Walters tie by:

1) Take Walter into the character composer.

2) Open the Render Style

3) Click on the Advanced Setting button (lower Right)

4) Select Upper 02

5) Increase Saturation

6) Adjust Hue and other settings as needed.

Use "Upper 01" for the shirt and decrease the brightness first.

When using the render style advanced option it seems you cannot change the color if you change i.e a shoe...or?
