# Preset

## Overview

By using predefined presets, you can easily apply frequently used actions such as attacks, dashes, and guards without creating an ActionSequence from scratch. You can also review the preset configuration as a reference for how to create ActionSequences.

## How to Use

In the ActionSequence editor, click the **Apply Preset button** to open the preset selection popup.

When you select a preset from the popup, the timeline of the currently edited ActionSequence instance is replaced with the selected preset content. Presets include not only track and timeline data, but also instances such as Parts and script content. When a preset is applied, these elements are also reconstructed.

If there is existing content in the timeline, a warning dialog will appear before replacement, and once replaced, it cannot be undone.

## Usage

* You can analyze the track configuration and timeline structure included in presets as learning material for creating ActionSequences.
* By applying various presets, you can quickly understand direction flow and composition.
* You can use presets for prototyping in the early planning stage to quickly validate the overall feel of an action.
* You can also modify and extend existing presets to create custom actions suited to your project.

## Advanced Usage

You can define custom presets tailored to your project by directly modifying the **ActionSequencerPresetTable.csv** included in OVERDARE Studio. By entering the preset name, description, thumbnail path, and data path in the CSV file, the preset will immediately appear in the editor’s preset list.

<figure><img src="https://2064130887-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FhrvYlLq1mQAq0V0vwPsb%2Fuploads%2FAt83bvjWBoUpFyjwrS6T%2FActionSequencer-CSV.png?alt=media&#x26;token=0963dc4d-a894-4dd2-8cb0-058bb57928e1" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The CSV file can be found in the OVERDARE Studio installation directory, typically located at:

`C:\Program Files\Epic Games\OverdareStudioPJVXb\Sandbox\Content\CreatorPlatform\_Master\ActionSequencer\ActionSequencerPresetTable.csv`

Thumbnail images must use the `ActionSequencer\Thumbnail` path relative to the Content directory. The recommended resolution is 560×260 (aspect ratio 2.15:1), and the format must be PNG to display correctly.

Preset data must use the `ActionSequencer\PresetData` path relative to the Content directory and be saved as a text (.txt) file. The data inside the text file should be the clipboard text generated by selecting an ActionSequence in the Level Browser and copying it with Ctrl + C.

By registering your own ActionSequences as presets in this way, you can standardize frequently used actions for reuse and quickly share and apply consistent-quality actions across your team.
