User-created display modes to share

Instructions

In Options/Appearance/Advanced Settings, export your custom display mode. ZIP the resulting .ini file. Upload the zip file using the upload link at the bottom of the page. Before exiting the upload page, copy/note the location! Then copy the example paragraph below and change the name, file path, and add your details. You can also add a small image if you like, I suggest a 100 pixel square .gif for consistency.

Important

If your custom mode includes special shaders or materials, be sure to include those together in the .zip file with the .ini file!

Render Shaded Mode

This is quick test of a shaded mode that imitates the default render preview (rendered) mode. The difference is, that this being a true shaded mode, it doesn't depend on any of the settings from the render options as a render preview mode would.

OK, here's four real simple ones that I use all the time:

White on Blue

This mode resembles old-school blueprints.

White on Black

Same as above, but with a black background.

Ghosted - all white

This ghosted mode is white-on-white, with dark gray edges. Useful for evaluating the form of you model, without color distractions.

Rendered - all white

This rendered mode is white-on-white, also with dark gray edges. The ambient light is turned way up, to help flatten things out. Useful for doing line-art style screencaps.
