Video summary

In this guide for Palworld 1.0, the creator demonstrates a specific technique to achieve highly reflective glass surfaces within water bases or any structure utilizing natural light and interior lighting. The video begins by showcasing a five-in-one water base where standard green glass appears dull and lacks visual appeal compared to modified versions. By applying a particular paint trick, the builder transforms ordinary windows into mirror-like surfaces that dramatically enhance reflections on floors and surrounding environments, creating an unreal aesthetic effect that significantly improves the overall look of the build. The core method involves accessing the game's painting menu by pressing up on the D-pad followed by either Square or X to enter edit palette mode, typically triggered by L1 or LB depending on the console version used. Once in this mode, players must select a color with RGB values set strictly to zero for red, green, blue, and alpha channels, effectively creating what appears as pure black but functions uniquely within the game engine. This specific shade is not merely dark; it acts as a perfect reflective layer that maximizes light interaction when applied to glass structures, whereas removing this paint immediately reverts the surface back to its standard, non-reflective state. The tutorial emphasizes that this technique works exclusively with actual glass materials and will not function on other building components or textures. When properly applied using an airbrush tool, these painted surfaces become so reflective that they can sometimes blend into their surroundings due to how well they mimic real-world reflections under in-game lighting conditions. The creator illustrates the stark difference between unmodified windows and those treated with this zero-value paint color, showing how the latter creates a stunning visual impact that elevates base designs from boring structures to immersive environments worthy of admiration by other players exploring Palworld worlds.

So guys, I am back with yet another power world video and the other day I uploaded a video showcasing my five-in-one water base. One of the main questions I got was how did I get my glass looking so reflective? Now it's a simple trick but if you don't know how to do it or today I'll teach you. Let's go. How's it going guys? My name is DP Jen and if you do enjoy the video leaving a like really helps out. And if you like what you see and want to see more, be sure to subscribe. Okay, so my water base I made with the intention of having the world tree the natural light and as you can see guys, look at the reflection I've got there. Look at the floor. Look how reflective that is. Now if we come to the standard green glass the reflection's almost gone. Completely gone. But if we go to the Look at that. It's absolutely unreal. [music] If you've got natural lighting, you've got lights up in your base and you want this amazing reflective glass, this is what you need to do. So first things first, it only works with glass. It ain't going to work with anything else. So make sure you have glass. Um this is a standard structure and I'll put down another water proof it to you. This is what the standard green uh glass looks like. It's super super dull, super super boring. So yeah. So what I want to do is guys pull up your paint mode which on uh >> [snorts] >> console you press up on your D-pad and then press either square or X going to paint mode. Then guys you can see it says edit palette. This will either be L1 or LB. Press that. Then guys, this is the perfect reflective color. It needs to be zero zero zero zero zero zero. This means that everything here is put down to the very very bottom. Make sure it's all at the very very bottom like that. And you're good. Press okay and then guys have what looks to be black. This is the perfect reflective color as you can see. I spray these now. They're all that perfect reflective color. Almost to a point where you you can't really It's quite hard to see them in some instances like that there. It's quite hard to see. So, yeah. Even he ain't seen it. Look, he's thinking, "What the hell's going on there?" Like you see guys, look at the difference. If I I've gone back into my paint mode. If I remove that color, look at the difference there. Look at the difference in the reflection. It's just so so much better. So, yeah guys, it really is as simple as that. So, enjoy that one, guys. Guys, if you did enjoy it, leave it a like. It really helps out. If you like what you see and want to see more, be sure to subscribe. And hopefully, guys, I will see you on that next one.
