So I was doing some comparison of dyes in the housing search to try and find some of the green dyes for if I don't have access to mabi and want to check on certain dyes when I came across this:

Green circles indicate correct colors, red circles indicate the new cyan colors coming up as blank. I don't know what the 2nd and 3rd dye values mean but they don't seem to be consistent even for dyes that look the same, probably don't really mean much.

To help you out here's the lines I see that match up with where it's blank for the cyan dye:

Seems that your code has issues with Item_Color1="65535" which should show up as a bright cyan

Anyways, I hope this information helps in improving this tool when you are feeling up to the challenge :thumb:

P.S. I want to know how the heck you converted these magical numbers into colors, been puzzling over it for the past couple hours

Fixed that one, I wasn't zero-padding my hex color codes :(
One Issue I don't think I'll ever fix is some really weird items that have negative color values, that and flashy things.

[CODE]<ItemDesc Item_ID="22518873147957113" Shop_Name="" Area="" Char_Name="Lothlorien" Comment="thanks for looking <3" Start_Time="63505314900013" Item_ClassId="18099" Item_Name="Siren's Small Wing Mask" Item_Price="8000" Item_Color1="-4216887" Item_Color2="-8176383" Item_Color3="-13761638" Count="24"/>[/CODE]

That for example, I doubt it's flashy since it's a siren mask, but it has negative color values and it just kills the whole system I have in place for converting their decimal color values.

Mabi is full of oddities it seems :/ Thanks for fixing that though!

Managed to make the negative colors not show up as blank anymore, and it seems to be accurate for some items but not for others (wing mask for exampple looks close to what's in game). I think that's as close as it'll get.
