colored names

[game-over]

ok how does oen go about makign it so you can have colored names in yoru server i cant find the settign to change anywhere

Here is a list of codes to get colors in COD4.

 

^1 - RED
^2 - GREEN
^3 - YELLOW
^4 - BLUE
^5 - CYAN
^6 - PINK
^7 - WHITE
^8 - DEFAULT MAP COLOR
^9 - GREY OR DEFAULT MAP COLOR
^0 - BLACK

 

Example:

game-over = ^1game^4-^3over

 

I believe that is how people add color to their name in COD4.

Color codes don't work for player names.

As you can see they work for messages/chat.

 

config_mp.cfg

seta name "^1=^7GG^1= ^4RocknRoll"

i know the codes i as a server owner want to make it so the server allows the color names and not all white

[Ice Man]

then put the codes in the name :)

COD4 doesn't show the color except in two situations that I know.. in a pb_plist and when it says you left the server.

You are correct about the color on names not showing chat or the player list. The console lets you add color but it is only displayed in mulitplayer options and the pb_plist from what I've seen.

 

Sorry for misleading a bit. I didn't take the time to test out the naming with color before posting.

 

That's why =GG= RocknRoll stops by to keep me straight! :)
