Software & Pattern

I recommend using PaintDotNET[www.getpaint.net] because of its simplicity and ability to make transparent backgrounds, you can’t do this with normal MS Paint.

You will need a 128×128 Transparent Pattern. If you don’t know how to make one, download it here![www.dropbox.com]

How to Install

Create a head on the pattern!

• Make sure it’s Transparent
• Make sure it’s 128×128
• Make sure it’s in .png file format (Paint.NET likes saving in .pdn)
• Make sure its name only contains letters or numbers

Navigate to your UserFaces files;

For the PC they should be in:
C:Program Files (x86)SteamSteamAppscommonBattleBlock TheaterGameDataUserFaces
or
C:Program FilesSteamSteamAppscommonBattleBlock TheaterGameDataUserFaces

For the Mac they should be in:
Library > Application Support > BattleBlockTheater

You can now choose your head on Character Select!
When chosing the type of head make sure you choose this:

How do Custom Heads work? [Remote User Heads]

Custom Heads work thanks to Remote User Heads feature which can be enabled in Options (turned off by default). You don’t need to enable this to view your head but you will need to enable it to view other people’s Custom Head.

If the feature isn’t enabled you will see other people’s custom head like this:

You can play without a head too!
All you have to do is to save the empty pattern.

NOTE: Default heads are hardcoded in game so you can’t change custom regions, for example the color of Hatty’s tears will change color depending on what team you are on. I recommend you to play on white team if you are going to use them!
