Being able to rotate shaders would be S tier

Just like the title says, I feel this would skyrocket the amount of customization and creativity available to players, and while I am no developer, I don't think this is a particularly difficult change to make. For example, I saw an excellent hunter set taking advantage of the dark/pale green and black in the refurbished black armory shader. I wanted to replicate this on my titan... however despite my best efforts I could only get black and red (while yes this is what the shader is intended for; it just wasn't what I was aiming for). As always, love you Bungie, love your game.

  • I just wish it was more consistent. For example: I've checked some shaders and noticed the top tile might be applied to cloth parts of the armor so I assume it would be that way for all shaders. But then I'd find one where the bottom gets applied to cloth instead. But what really grinds my gears is when I find an awesome shader for all my armor and then when I go to do my ship, sparrow, and/or shell and it throws in colors that aren't on the shader tile.

  • Should be a thing. #90° for all.

    "Rotate" meaning being able to apply the colors in different orders ? That would mean instead of 1 shader having 1 way it looks your shaders would have 4 or more applications This could also help with mixing different shaders together because your picking where the colors show up in the first place If I could ask for any cosmetic change I'd ask them to add the ability to change are faces in the options with the option to also see face in combat so we can show it off

    • You should be able to select each quadrant of the shader and choose whichever color you want.

        I just want the ability to ignore certain colours on the shader (Like the blue from Amethyst Veil). Honestly they should just make custom shaders a thing. Charge $20 to make them for all I care, just give us the ability to make our own basic shaders.

        • Loadouts are coming in the game with Lightfall. That might fix it (I suppose ?)

            I've once suggested a custom shader UI where you can pick up to four shaders to make up a custom shader palette for your character. The menu would look similar to the emote menu and each shader would make up a quadrant (for a lack of better term) of the custom shader, using the color of its respective quadrant as the base. Let's use Calus's Selected as an example since it's 4 separately distinguishable colors. Putting the shader into the [u]top[/u] slot lets you use the [b]white[/b] coloring, but not the gold, black, or purple. Placing it into the [u]bottom[/u] slot lets you use the [b]purple[/b], but not the white, gold, or black. I think you get the pattern by now. That all said, such an idea would probably never be added because it then ruins the point of making more shaders.

          • Or just give us color palettes to choose like this https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTsTk4x9uTIEeFK77O-Nfpiwxva-FgmGp1kuw&usqp=CAU Or if they want to go hardcore, go with material picker like this https://preview.redd.it/7hgpizbcmge71.jpg?width=1080&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=f91e2a05f7e837d9f1eb1b49c230990579f6f78e

              • I believe shader application is based on material groups within the game, hence why you get different results depending on the class, but yeah would be cool. Might see some wacky stuff running around though if I can put the blue part from neopop wave all over everything heh

              • What also would be really nice is a copy paste function in game vut maybe a little to difficult to implement

              • Ive been wanting a feature like this FOR YEARS, it would expand the fashion options so much, all we also need is the feature to change our guardians appearance. which would be really good, take this upvote.
