Bolo Colors!

Aug 17, 2003 21:00 Bolo Colors!
:( I'm somewhat colorblind. The whole red green thing in bolo is ridiculous. I can't tell a green dead pill from a red dead pill sometimes. I can't tell the difference between tank colors at all. Enemy tanks should be a different shape. Friendly pills should be green, enemy pills white or something.

I believe bolo supported a red/green colour blind mode by changing the green/red items to white and blue. Perhaps when skin support is available someone will make something similar.

Is that so? Well they must have thought it important to try once. It's good news.

By editing the internal winbolo resources which is both not supported nor recommended. Version 1.14 will enable skins to be loaded externally.

question.....is it possible to make enemy lgms red and allied lgms green? :lol: :oops: :P :roll: :wink:

Unless Elvis plans to implement this at a later time, no, you can't distinguish colors of LGMs without some kind of borg.

I know this Elvis, thats why i haven't made any skins up, I know the bitch of being partially color blind......i had to change my lgm to red or the only place I can see it it tarmac, so if editing internal resources helps one player stay longer....I'll take my chances
