Textures and materials
Guides for recoloring and retexturing Deadlock heroes, from simple material values to new materials for custom models.
You see a recolor on every copy of that hero, enemies included. Never make a hero glow, go bright, near-transparent, or very dark. Read What's allowed and how to stay safe before you start.
