The epv color will be from the base model and not the layered

Q: Can I get one color or a mix for all DB models?
A: Yes. Download the template then use the epv editor to change the colors listed for the template file to what you want or ONLY take the custom global epv of the color you want (from Color Shift Weapon Application) and rename it to " hm_wp02.epv3"
