In addition, this formula never creates an RGB value higher than 255 (which would be invalid in the 8-bit RGB color model). Of course, the resulting color can never be lighter or more saturated than the lightest or most saturated input color. GainFactor = averageMaximum / maximumOfAverageĭue to the way this formula works, the resulting color can never be darker than the average of the input colors and is often lighter and more saturated. MaximumOfAverage = max(averageRed, averageGreen, averageBlue) TotalMaximum = totalMaximum + max(red, green, blue)ĪverageGreen = totalGreen / numberOfColorsĪverageMaximum = totalMaximum / numberOfColors This procedure can be summed up with the following equations:įor each color (all 'total' variables start at 0 before counting): The modified average RGB values are then used as the final color. Finally, each average RGB value is multiplied by the average maximum value and divided by the maximum of the average RGB values. The maximum value of the average RGB values is also calculated. This effectively produces the average red, green, blue, and maximum values. After this, each total is divided by the number of colors used. In addition, a running total of the highest value (be it red, green, or blue) is also kept. For each dye in the crafting grid, and the armor itself (if it is already dyed), the red, green, and blue values are added to running totals.

The game has a specific formula for calculating the color of dyed armor: each color, in the RGB color model, has a red value, green value, and blue value. Colored armor can be reverted to their original color using a cauldron with undyed water. Armor can be dyed multiple times with previous colors affecting the final outcome. There are 12,326,391 (73.4% of sRGB) colors leather armor can be, as it is possible to put more than one dye on the crafting bench alongside the leather armor.
