random note on colors
« on: August 14, 2006, 02:25:00 am »

I read somewhere that the colors were a bit off for some people.  If you want, you can go into "data\init\init.txt" and play with these:

[BLACK_R:0]
[BLACK_G:0]
[BLACK_B:0]
[BLUE_R:0]
[BLUE_G:0]
[BLUE_B:128]
[GREEN_R:0]
[GREEN_G:128]
[GREEN_B:0]
[CYAN_R:0]
[CYAN_G:128]
[CYAN_B:128]
[RED_R:128]
[RED_G:0]
[RED_B:0]
[MAGENTA_R:128]
[MAGENTA_G:0]
[MAGENTA_B:128]
[BROWN_R:128]
[BROWN_G:128]
[BROWN_B:0]
[LGRAY_R:192]
[LGRAY_G:192]
[LGRAY_B:192]
[DGRAY_R:128]
[DGRAY_G:128]
[DGRAY_B:128]
[LBLUE_R:0]
[LBLUE_G:0]
[LBLUE_B:255]
[LGREEN_R:0]
[LGREEN_G:255]
[LGREEN_B:0]
[LCYAN_R:0]
[LCYAN_G:255]
[LCYAN_B:255]
[LRED_R:255]
[LRED_G:0]
[LRED_B:0]
[LMAGENTA_R:255]
[LMAGENTA_G:0]
[LMAGENTA_B:255]
[YELLOW_R:255]
[YELLOW_G:255]
[YELLOW_B:0]
[WHITE_R:255]
[WHITE_G:255]
[WHITE_B:255]

These are the RGB components of the 16 colors used by the game.  The game is actually rendered in OpenGL, so you can do pastels if you want, whatever.

Quick color test: these colors are softened a bit; hard, bright, eye-hurting colors should have vanished. I also tried to make colors stand out better. There are few problems, like wood-brown being very ugly, but I never realized how much wood I have all around the fort...


EDIT: Okay, this was even more stupid than usually. I forgot to add the colors...
