How to distinguish BBs from Family
« on: February 21, 2016, 05:36:04 AM »

I had this problem with recognizing factions by colors. To be more specific, it was hard to distinguish Brahmin Boys from Family. Here is how i fixed that problem.

1. Go to game folder
2. Open the file NameColorizing.txt
3. There will be color section, there find 2 lanes responsible for the brahmin boys color.
4. Replace them with your own colorizing.

I changed the values of those colors to 255 255 3 and 255 255 30, they are in RGB format, meaning how intense is Red, Green, Blue to create the color you want.

@   ColorBrahmin         255 255  3
@   ColorBrahminBright   255 255 30

Here are the results:

As you can see, the yellow color really suits well and can be easily distinguished during battles.

You finally discovered namecolorzing  ;D

I remember beginning of session, BB members thought Family were BB and when I killed them they started crying that I TK'd xD

Changing namecolorizing was amongs the very first things i did when joining AOP OBT. (when it switched from two to four faction)

Family and BBoys are too close. Same for Lawyers and factionless.
It should be changed directly by the server. Those things are quite important.

Purple Family for life

Mm, classic

You can tell the difference, it just takes a second to register which is which. That second can count though.

only true colorizing

Code: [Select]
#
# Player names and contours colorizer.
# - Everyone missing from the list will be colorized by his faction. To disable it, type name with only "*".
# - Instead of space, type "&". For example: "One&Two" is equal to "One Two".
# - You can use "*" and "?" characters in name, the first case skips one or more letters, second only one.

Purple Family here too. Looks classy.
Purple is colour of Kings and Emperors.

Already got killed because of mistaking BBs for Family, I'm doing my thing then some smelly dude kills me.

Changing faction-less is a good idea too.
