What you need

a full water jar, canteen or waterskin
2 charcoals, 1 gunpowder or 1 sparkpowder
berries (the amount and combinations depends on the color you are creating)
cooking pot or industrial cooker

How to add color to your virtual world

You will need water for each type of dye you make. Each dye requires either 2 charcoals, 1 gunpowder or 1 sparkpowder. Each dye requires different types of berries to create the chosen color of paint. Once ingredients are combined from your inventory, the mixture is cooked in a pot or industrial cooker for a certain amount of time. Each batch creates five dyes. Dyes can be used to color armor, weaponry, saddles, structures or as warpaint. When the dye is ready to apply, it can be found and highlighted in your inventory. Dye is applied with the paintbrush icon or a spray painter icon. "Dip" the paintbrush or spray painter in the dye and color the object. When using the spray painter on larger structures, you can left click on a PC or right click on the XBox One. To remove dye, use the soap icon.
