Faction Painter

The Faction Painter lets you edit faction colour schemes — primary / secondary / tertiary banner colours, uniform colours, and the related per-faction display knobs — without manually grinding through factions_tables and the colour columns.

Open from Tools → Faction Painter with a Pack open.

Workflow

1. Open the Pack you want to add faction colour overrides to.
2. Open Faction Painter.
3. Pick the faction in the list.
4. Adjust the colours (or hit Restore Vanilla Values to baseline first).
5. OK — RPFM writes the new values into the appropriate DB row in your Pack, creating it as an override if it didn’t exist already.

Edits are reflected immediately in any open DB editor for the affected tables (the tool tracks which paths it touched and reloads any matching open views after save).

Per-game caveats

Different games store faction colours in different tables. Faction Painter resolves the right table and column names per game from its game-config map, so the picker UI stays the same across games even when the underlying schema doesn’t.
