Dye Hard is a mod aiming to expand on the default dyes by adding a plethora of colors to most of the base dyes.

Dyes
there are currently 566 dyes added by this mod, here you can find more information about them.
all dyes are crafted at the Dye Vat (if craftable).
if there's a gap/missing color, it's already a vanilla dye.

Config
Dye Hard comes with a config, which can be found in the mod configuration menu . it currently has only one setting, "DyeAcquisition". this is set to "craft" by default.
Dye Hard only checks if "DyeAcquisition" is "craft", "reward", and "both". most strange dyes are affected by this(check the dye info above for more details)
  • craft - the dye is obtained through crafting.
  • reward - the dye is obtained from the dye trader.
  • both - the dye is obtained through crafting and from the dye trader.

Closing Notes
i'm not sure if dye hard works with any mods that add dyes. be sure to tell me of any incompatibilities.
if there's anything you think needs to be fixed, adjusted, or changed, feel free to ask.
if you have an idea for an addition to the already massive list of dyes, share it by all means!

Compatibility
has been tested to be compatible with Item Customizer

Known Bugs
doesn't currently work with modded accessories.
when swapping config values in the menu, recipes won't emditly vanish, closing and reopening the inventory fixes this.

as far as i can tell this is a bug with shader lib and i don't think thegamemaster1234 knows about it, i'll post in his mod thread about it.

for the time being added a known bugs section
 
You shouldn't be using the dummy dye. The reason why the 256th dye item won't equip is because the game has item.dye as a byte, which is capped at 255; 256 loops over into 0, and is therefore unequippable.
I suggest one of two options:
- Manually set item.dye to any number from 1 to 255. ShaderLib ignores item.dye values.
- Wait for me to add a new GlobalItem hook that automatically sets the value of modded dyes to 1.

Your choice ;-)

i didn't do that originally because it didn't bind to the players' map icon properly when an item had item.dye, but after the 256th dye it binds a random shader to the players' map icon anyways so i'll probably set all dyes to have it set to 1 and remove the dummy dye.
i really appreciate your help on this, thank you!
 
Hell yeah! I honestly love dyeing equipment in game. Now with more my computer will crash, but it will be worth it.
 
I absolutely LOVE THIS MOD, THANK YOU SO MUCH. the light dye is perfect, and now i have pitch white wings instead of silver or blue! just curious, but do you plan to make more "wisp" style dyes? like, dyes that over ride everything, and replaces the colour instead of tinting it? because i was thinking that it would be a good idea, and if you wanted, i could try to start modding myself to create an add-on like that for you.

i forgot about this whole thing for a while, huh. thank you for you're interest in this. i must admit, i don't think many people really use this because of shaderlib's incompatibility with modded accessories. regardless, wisp's shader is hard to work with because of how it's set up. that makes it hard to make good colors for it, but it'll happen eventually. on the modding thing, you can do so if you want. i don't own the market on dye mods. you can use mine as an example of how to interact with shaderlib if you choose to use it even. that said i have been adding small things here and there from time to time.
here's a preview of one i made sometime ago
Us5x6RZ.png
 
First off, this mod is what I've always wanted Terraria dyes to be! Where you have unlimited customization as to what you can make. That being said, I think some cool additions could be more Gradient Dyes and the addition of Armor Dyes. More Gradient Dyes would let you have stuff like an Orange-Purple Gradient, a Yellow-Blue Gradient, and a Red-Cyan Gradient, just as some examples. Armor Dyes would be crafted by using some sort of armor material. For example, Ectoplasm would make Spectre Dye, which would have the same effect as Spectre Armor (Spectre Dye could also, of course, be mixed with other dyes). Definitely installing this mod once 1.4 comes out, and I'm looking forward to seeing more from this mod! :)
 
Hello! I'm here to notify you that somehow something changed inside ShaderLib that requires all mods built against it to be built again.
No code changes have to be made - just install the latest ShaderLib and build the mod again.

Apologies for the inconvenience, I really don't know how this happened. In the meantime, for anyone looking to use this mod:
- Extract Dye Hard
- Copy the Dye Hard folder in ModLoader/Mod Reader to ModLoader/Mod Sources
- Go into Mod Sources and hit Dye Hard's "Build + Reload" button
 
push another update. removed somethings(namely party dyes) and added the new dyes to the og post under "new 1.2 dyes". enjoy!
edit: put all that code up on the git for those curious minds that want it.
