Does anyone have a list of those color codes you can use on items to change the color of their display text? I'm talking about the ones like "Ä¿ÿ4" or however it goes. I had one, but lost it.------------------ Sir_General That's Sir_General with an _. Leave it out and I'll beat you with a rubber chicken.

Hmm...this sounds really interesting.I've never heard about such things but if you had one this means that probably others exist too.I was thinking that such things maybe exist cuz Starcraft uses tbl files too(I think different structure tho)and it has color codes.We just have to find them now...------------------ You can't learn to be kewl or leet.It comes from inside and it's in everyone.You just have to reach it,but not by looking at the others - look at yourself.Be kewl.Be leet.Be yourself.

I know a few of them, but I'm trying to find the rest. If all else fails, I can use a little bit of random guessing with the ones I already know and see what results I get.I know: ÿc4 - Gold (Unique Item Color) ÿc8 - Orange (Crafted Item Color) If you put these in front of the text, they change the item's text color. So if you entry is: ÿc4Happy ÿc8Days You'll get "Happy" in gold and "Days" in orange. ------------------ Sir_General That's Sir_General with an _.

When we get a list, perhaps we should add it to the Phrozen Keep's files.------------------ Sir_General That's Sir_General with an _. Leave it out and I'll beat you with a rubber chicken.

I always just copied and pasted them from my list, but you can also find them using the "Character Map" program, which shows extra characters in each font like they upside down question mark and wierd "A".------------------ Sir_General That's Sir_General with an _.

There are other colors. I know that all the colors for rare, magic, set are on there, as well as white, purple, dark green, and others. Give me a minute and I'll see what I can find.Anyway, to change a color back to normal, you have to use the white color change thing. Whatever it is. ------------------ Sir_General That's Sir_General with an _. Leave it out and I'll beat you with a rubber chicken.

On a sorta similiar subject, do you know how to get the displays to use the smaller font?When you have a lot of gem prop's, the display can get kinda wacky. Being able to force the small font would be nice. ------------------ Good, Bad, Ive got the gun. Darkness Weaves

You need to use the light gray code. If you put:I like ÿc1red ÿc0and shiny things. You would get: I like - in light gray red - in red and shiny things - in light gray ------------------ Sir_General That's Sir_General with an _. Leave it out and I'll beat you with a rubber chicken.

U can also write them by holding Alt and push the numbuttons in different orders. Example: Hold Alt, push 0, then 1, then 4, then 7, then 8, release Alt = Æ------------------ Soon I'm not a newbie anymore
