For the old version of the Placeable Design Kit, where you had to make the modDesc entries, there were two options there. One is DESIGN and the other is COLOR. The design one is for object changes and the color one is for selecting colors.
The new version of the Design Kit does not need the modDesc entries. You just follow the same pattern Giants uses.
For color, it's <thColor1Configurations> - <thColor8Configurations> in your placeable xml file.
For design it's <thDesign1Configurations> - <thDesign8Configurations> in your placeable xml file.
I cannot for the life of me figure out how to use this. Somehow the textures can be customized with 66x120Shop but not for 60x40Shed and 42x68 Shed. I apologize for my ignorance, I do not know coding or modding in the least. Do you have some sort of tutorial on how to make texures work on the other mods? Currently the buildings show with white out textures and no configuration options except for building 66x120Shop
If you are talking about the LJR sheds, it's because the configuration names are wrong in the xml files. The names in the placeable xml should match the names in the modDesc.
For example, if a configuration is named "outerWalls" in modDesc, the keys in the placeable would be <outerWallsConfigurations>, <outerWallsConfiguration>, etc. That's the vanilla naming, adding Configurations and Configuration respectively to the end of the configuration name. From there it follows the Giants vanilla configuration scheme.
ColorMat for vehicles is almost the same as ColorScale for placeables from a programming standpoint. At least as far as everything I've seen so far. That being said, I'll get some input and if it's something people want added, I'll look into adding it.

I am still a bit confused can you make a video of your screen on changing the code for that 81x180 shed? It would be well appreciated!
or If i gave my email to you a emailed file that's already changed

If I can get ahold of LJR, I'll let him know.
nice work , I can make a generus donation to create a script for colormat in fs25 , I mean to allow us to change colors on mods
Are you talking about the colorScale shader parameters? If so, those will be supported in upcoming versions.
no I talk about the vehicles with colormat
