Colours of contacts

vodkajello · 03-25-06, 07:35 PM

Which file controls the colours of contacts?

Red = enemy
Blue = friend
was is black for neutral?

etc....

It's the one thing about GW (other than crazy trawlers) that I would like to change back to the way it was.

I like having contacts being different colours. I helps me to keep things straight.

It will probably be a little while before I can put together that package, but I will be happy to do it for you. (The bit of confusion caused by all grey contacts was an intentional effect though.... "I can't quite tell from this distance if it is a neutral ship... should I fire or not?)

Its on my list now though.

You have been more than helpful and a friend to the GW team.

Cheers! Fellow Grey Wolf!

Yes I would like to know too - I don't like the colored contacts. I would like to make all mine grey as well later. :hmm:

The .shp files in the Air, Submarine, and Sea folders were all altered.

I did this some months ago in photoshop and for the life of me cannot remember the exact process so don't shoot me....

HOWEVER, once you have a good selection you can copy/paste/rename... for instance the .shp file for the Type 36A German DD and the Type 1934 German DD .shp files can be interchangeable. etc etc.
