4 liters of water plus one dye item. There are some notable exceptions: gray dye is created by doubling the proportion of fixing solution to dye item, and therefore requires between 4 to 8 liters of water per dye item. Orange dye is made using 4L of yellow dye to 4 portions of onion.

Dye is an item in Vintage Story that can be used to change the color of fabrics and other clothing items.

Creation

Mordant

To fix the colors, the fabric must first be treated with a mordant.

There are 3 mordants in the game: diluted cassiterite, diluted chromite and diluted alum (they have the same properties).

A mordant solution is made instantly in a barrel by adding 1 Crushed alum or 1 Crushed chromite or 1 Crushed cassiterite to 5 L of water.

You can get these crushed materials by using a pulverizer. You can put the water in the barrel with a wooden bucket.

5L Water + Crushed cassiterite = 5L Diluted cassiterite

5L Water + Crushed-chromite.png = 5L Diluted chromite

5L Water + Crushed-alum.png = 5L Diluted alum

Then, you place a plain cloth in the barrel to soak in the mordant and you seal the barrel for 8 hours. You need 2 L of mordant for 1 plain cloth. You end up with 1 mordanted cloth.

2L Diluted cassiterite or 2L Diluted chromite or 2L Diluted alum + Cloth = Mordanted cloth

Color

Dyes are created in a barrel. All dyes require a specific element that determines the color of the dye. The barrel needs to be sealed for 8 hours for the dye to be ready (except for the brown dye which requires 24 hours).

4L Dye-purple.png Purple dye = 4L Water.png Water + 4x Fruit-blackcurrant.png Black currant

1L Dye-brown.png Brown dye = 1L Strong-tannin.png Strong tannin

Note: The woad blue dye can be applied to the plain cloth directly. A mordant is not necessary.

Usage

To dye cloth treated with a mordant, you place it in the barrel containing the dye to soak it and seal the barrel for 8 hours. It takes 2 L of dye for 1 fabric treated with a mordant. Dyes can also be used to change the color of leather by soaking 1 leather in 4 L of dye. Dyed cloth is needed to create specific types of clothing. Colored leather is used to make ornate versions of shields.
