+====== Skin Texture Property: color.tint.mask ======
+Defines the blends between [[gamedev:textureproperties:color_tint|color.tint]], [[gamedev:textureproperties:color|color]] and [[gamedev:textureproperties:color_alpha|color.alpha]] property.
+|Excepted Data Source|1 component image|
+|Data Range|0 to 1 for all image components|
+|Default Value|1|
+|Affected Modules|Graphic|
+|Linked Properties|[[gamedev:textureproperties:color|color]], [[gamedev:textureproperties:color_alpha|color.alpha]], [[gamedev:textureproperties:color_tint|color.tint]]|
+====== Description ======
+The **color.tint.mask** texture property is linked to the **[[gamedev:textureproperties:color|color]]**, **[[gamedev:textureproperties:color_alpha|color.alpha]]**  and **[[gamedev:textureproperties:color_tint|color.tint]]** texture properties. It defines the amount of tint applied to the image from the **[[gamedev:textureproperties:color|color]]** and **[[gamedev:textureproperties:color_alpha|color_alpha]]** texture properties. This allows to alter the color of textures without requiring new image files for each color variation. Furthermore this allows for dynamic color changes using a renderable for this texture property.
+The value is typically a 1 color component image with values located inside the range from 0 to 1.
+The default value for this texture property is 1.

+<WRAP centeralign>4 crates with the same skin assigned. Each one has a different tint color using a **[[gamedev:renderables|dynamic skin]]**. The skin uses a renderable named "tint" for the color.tint texture property. This way the material can be reused in various places just with a different color each time.</WRAP>
