well alot of ppl asked me how i made that bone helm in xyrax fo d2c that had the bright color (on the play screen not inv) to change color intensity on the playscreen without messing the ingame palletes you have a easy way, in weapons.txt/misc.txt/armor.txt there are 2 columns (next to the end of the .txt) called transform and invtrans these columns show how much color intense the item will be (eg: 0 means nothing (amulets/rings/charms/jewels) masks which dont change color in iv are set to 1 wile 8 means full color change change, (this was about InvTrans) for inventory color intensity


now the transform column goes oposit still 0 means nothing, but 1 means most intsense (items would appear VERY bright colored like in the pre beta screens) 5 in here makes the color kind of dull.

hope this is usefull

Thanks, Nef ... I was looking for a way to do just what you posted ... I noticed in the tutorial section a short list of color codes, I think like numbers 1-16 ... and beside those numbers are a description of the colors they represent ... can you use those code numbers and apply them the way you just mentioned? And thanks for the help you gave me before on graphics, I'm starting to get really great results on changing the way things look in the game ... and I only just started ... I can imagine what I'll be able to do in a few months from now ... or years, or decades, or centuries, or millenia, or .... ok, I'll stop now ... but I'm still having a lot of fun learning and doing new things ... and you know what they say when you stop having fun ~<^>~ ...
