  • If you mean the blue. I love it.

    I can easily tell the difference between the player, the shield, the health and the weapons.

    Maybe its just my settings, but its not "blue" its kinda aqua or something, actually its more like "teal"

    I like playing on the server cus it has maps that are not in regular rotation , if the color isn't changed thats no big deal to me at all, I just wanted to see what others thought.

    tnx again for running it Doku, it's a nice change from the norm.

    Now if we can only get the guy who runs the GA -DM server to get onboard with the other server ops and get his Crylink fixed..I would be in Nex Heaven :D

    Till i got something else to bitch about :lol:

  • I'm still trying to figure out how the color values work. I'm just plugging in random numbers until I see something that looks decent. That blue looked decent enough to me.

    The only problem with the blue color is that you blend in on certain maps, like on treasureisland where there is lots of blue. That was the reason why I wanted the color in the first place, because people's colors would blend in with the background on regular DM servers.

    Maybe I'll allow it to be votable between a few color options.

  • Whatever ya wanna do kind sir.

    But personally I dislike the "teal" :lol:
    Gotta agree on background colors of a map though, I think thats why the default in bright skins is the color it is., depending on map, yellow or orange seems to always work.

  • No, it'll be changed. I'll add some vcall options to change between different colors. Blue, green, red, orange, whatever.

    Sure, I could add some more maps. I have a collection of maps from a previous "Akusho" maplist that I tried many months ago. That maplist was HUGE but that server had some errors. I wasn't sure if some of the maps were broken or what not, so I removed a lot of them. I need to go back through them again and add some back to the maplist. There are also some newer maps that came about recently that I haven't checked out yet.

    Another thing I wanted to do auto-adjust the maplist so it displays maps depending on the number of players on the server. If there are only 5 players, then the maplist will contain smaller maps. 10 players? Then the maplist will show larger maps. That will take a while though, because I have to go through the maplist assess each map.
