Ok I was in a game the other day (Starcraft Experience) funny stuff.. anyways one guy was like "yellow why arent u building" and then yellow said "I'm Green" and that got me thinkin.. cuz we can change the color of just about anything in starcraft but has anyone ever changed the whole you being green on the minimap... has it been done?... can it be done?
The color you are when you start, Is the color you will be on the minimap, I don't think it is possible.
Dunno what you meant but that guy was either eye-blinded or stupid, confuse yellow with green LOL
No, I know what he's saying...
Say a random melee game... random colors random start locations.
I'm Blue
Friend is Red
ON MY SCREEN on the minimap, it shows the color GREEN over MY buildings, Red over friend's.
While on my friend's screen, my buildings look BLUE and his own look GREEN to him.
I think I've seen something change that... but I don't know what it is. Maybe someone can help you now.

He was being sarcastic. Trust me ... he was.
i thought your units and buildings are green in minimap to show that they are yours....
doesnt matter what color u started off with..... or am i wrong as hell?
This guy was so ripping off The B.net Experience movie map.

Yup. The movie is in the DLDB, by the way.
I think the guy was color blinded....Or his eye was

ing up on him...Oh and it only showed bright green on your screen, Not the other.

Added alliance colors on units - Shift-Tab changes your color to green,
your allies to yellow and your enemies to red.
1.12 Added that, maybe it was in use by somebody?
Yea, Probally, I think that was stupid when they added that....That is the only explanation....
people, its green, that means it your own units. so his units are green.
you can change it by i think using weird colors, glowing colors...
Not a concept. Moved to assistance.

Um, no?
This is a little off topic, but just as a side note: I am colorblind, and it can be difficult to tell the difference between the green and yellow on the mini-map...no joke it kinda sucks. Colorblindness is not seeing black and white just in case any of you were thinking that.

I have blue/green colorblindness...damn gene pool.
This isnt really worthy of being in concept or MMA.
Move again. :/
I think you press Alt+Tab to change it back.
And yes, it is possible and is frequently done on accident.
SHIFT+Tab will change the minimap colors. Shift+Tab again will change unit colors. Shift+Tab a third time will revert everything to normal.
