Ok, so I know about that latest patch issues and the new color list.... I took the symbols from the color list on this website: the title/mission briefing ones for my scenario title and the symbols from the second grouping of the list for my Forces. The scenario title now has the proper color but the Forces do not. We pretty much need colors these days to make our map look competent. Can someone please explain to me in detail how the colors work, and whether or not they will for messages in game? Thanks

Force colors no longer work.

Colors work like this:

QUOTE

(red color symbol)HELLO THIS WILL BE (green color symbol)GREEN

That will look like this:

QUOTE

HELLO THIS WILL BE GREEN

And back when you actually could put color in force names, you had to use the mission briefing color set, not the unit/trigger set.

Good point.

What you do is, you copy and paste the symbols of colors into your map from the Code box, not the quote box

So they will only work for the map name, mission briefings, and in-game (units).

May i add you cant overlap Map names either.

I think you just have to copy those...but who cares. Not many people use those.

For tabs (invincibles) you just open notepad, hit tab, and copy the tab. And you use those for overlapping at the end of the lap.

9/10 of the stuff people suggest to me, never work. That is one of them. I use a mac so its harder. What I need is a map that has the colors in it. I have an old one farty gave to me..
