Color Changing Script That wont change the WHOLE Object?

Does anyone here have a Color Changing Script That wont change the WHOLE Object?
I want to make a few of my pieces in these shoes i made Color changing but all the color change scripts i have seem to change the entire object

I only want 2 of the pieces to change color not the whole shoe!!

Pls help someone
Thank you!

use

llSetLinkColor(link number, vector color,ALL_SIDES)

I'm pretty sure the parent prim is #1 for link number and so on.
You will need to call the SetLinkColor for every linked prim you want to change.

You might have to play with the numbers to get the right pieces to change colors.

This code is untested. Use it at your own risk.

Put this in the parts that you want to change color:

default
{
    message_linked( integer sender, integer num, string str, key id )
    {
        if ( num == 5621 )
            llSetColor( (vector)str, ALL_SIDES );
    }
}

To set the color, send a link message with 5621 as the number and the desired color as the string.

It should work.

Slightly different approach for situations where it's not necessary to change all prims at exactly the same time...

set_colour( string Name, vector Value ) {
    
    integer prims_total = llGetNumberOfPrims();
    integer i;
    for( i = 1; i <= prims_total; ++i ) {
        
        if( llGetLinkName(i) == Name ) { llSetLinkColor( i, Value, ALL_SIDES ); }
    }
}

this can be put into single prim, then called e.g. set_colour( "sole", <1.0,1.0,1.0> ) to change colour only for prims in the set that happen to have "sole" as their name.

The upside is no extra scripts idling in the item, the downside is like mentioned, slower response time.

Personally I am currently using a method where you link the object in order (Use Hide Selected in debug, makes this possible instead of impossible!) so you can just do link color/alpha changes from X to Y, it's faster than checking the name of each prim.

It is much slower than having a script in each prim but that has tons of extra script overhead and is really annoying if you want to change things.

Ok, I THINK... I maybe wrong but:

Solur Industries sell a full perms script at $L100 I believe, you put in specific parts of an object to get just those pieces to change colour!

Look for Lur Sachs or Sol Columbia in world, they can be found at Celestial City and Couture Island as well as other places I believe

What the hell are you doing in here? Are you lost?

I'm pretty sure that was sarcasm.

Why, Starax! I was looking for you! *licks*
