Menu color help
-
Here are two screens; one of the text field with orange text and one from what I get when i send it. Note that the frame of the text box is also still magenta.
-
Use STYLE_GROUP in DATA\FONTS\rich_fonts.ini.
-
Added :
[Style]
name = STYLE_GROUP
font = 0
bold = false
italic = false
underline = false
color = 51, 136, 225To that file and got same results as Aigle-Imperial.
-
Copied that into my own rich_fonts.ini and it worked fine (using FL Hack’s Dual multiplayer).
-
The “Player_2” in your contact list is still magenta ^^ One question: is it necessary that the other player also uses this new colour scheme? Because I’d say no t first thought, not sure however.
-
Could you running FLHacks Dual Multiplayer be the difference, as I am not seeing many variables that could be different and affect this.
Edit: Players in Group Arrows are blue and their names are invisible in the bottom left box unless highlighted.
-
Using the Fl Colors script, I changed the group color to orange and here’s the excerpt from rich_fonts.ini.
font = 8, Arial Unicode MS, 23 [Style] name = STYLE_GROUP font = 0 bold = false italic = false underline = false color = 255, 128, 0 [Style] name = STYLE_CONSOLE ```Again testing with Dual multiplayer, the attached screenshot shows the result. As for whether the other player needs the colors, too, I'm not sure. The message comes from the server (server.dll I mean), so that suggests it's the server that controls the colors.

This explains everything as I did not modify the colours on my test server, only on the client side. I’ll test it again then.
-
Actually, I was wrong. The style comes from the server (it is server.dll that processes the chat message), but the color is set by the client (it is freelancer.exe that reads rich_fonts.ini).

Adoxa,
Can I ask how you were able to change the colours of the brackets and the label for group too please?
Thanks,
Rik -
Didn’t I already say how? :? Use Freelancer Colors to change the group color (the brackets) and edit DATA\FONTS\rich_fonts.ini, adding STYLE_GROUP to change the group chat color.
-
Something up with your website adoxa?
I can’t access FL Colours, can’t connect apparently. -
Sigh, looks like it’s down again. You should be able to see for yourself - I’m on Box 16.
-
Apologies Adoxa, must have had a brain cloud when I was posting this the other day. Fantastic script, thanks!!!

I am having a problem on changing the color of every blue interface even if I follow the guide of cheeseontoast’s (HUD Editing Guide)…
After following the guide, I ran the game, and after the Freelancer screen, it exits the Freelancer screen window and a window will pop up saying that the “freelancer.exe has stopped working” and I need to close the program.
I did what cheeseontoast said on the guide but I failed to run it…
Can someone please help me on this…
Thanks…

There is a new question here: How I may change it the hud_energygauge, hud_hullgauge, hud_shieldgauge colors?

How exactly, I can’t tell you right now. I need to dive into that again myself. But I’m sure someone else can tell you about that.I am having a problem on changing the color of every blue interface even if I follow the guide of cheeseontoast’s (HUD Editing Guide)…

No doubt that something somewhere has gone wrong after all, or it wouldn’t crash. Based on the info you are giving, it’s hard to tell what exactly. If you really don’t have a clue what the cause is, the best thing to do is to put your backup files back, and then add one edited file after another, loading the game after each time. Do this until the game starts crashing again, and you will know which file causes it. Then it’s a matter of retracing your steps and finding out where exactly you went wrong.

I did this already, but nothing changed.

I have two files unzipped, Fl Colors.lng and Fl Colors.mps (which can be read by Wordpad) but they produce a code (probably the aforementioned scripts) of which I don’t know how to use it, or which program to relate to it.
So, how to use Fl Colors?
