I am currently making a recolor of the OFB robot crafter station.
This one:

for those of you who aren't sure what I'm talking about or are visual.

I've recolored the entire robot station in simpe, but the blueprint (aka the blue pictures on the the bulletin board) are not on the texture map. I have the CEP installed and Simpe installed and all that jazz, but that texture area does not show up as a separate recolorable TXTR.

One way to fix this would be to clone the robot crafter station, but I don't really want to make an entirely new mesh just to get a recolor to work.

Any help would be much appreciated, thank you!

That part is not recolorable, and the CEP would need to be updated to make it so.

I did some voodoo on my CEP and made a recolorable package with both parts recolorable, but it was not usable without the CEP. So any sharing would not be possible. Of course creating a default override would be, just pull the blueprint_lifo if you want to do that.

If you clone it, you would need to add a second recolorable subset since it won't automatically do that.
