Default Changing Player Colors?

When i changed the colors in the MUTIPLAYER.INI,let say from blue to light red, i keep getting a MISSING:light red.

How do i get rid of the "MISSING"text so that it reads:Light Red instead of MISSING:Light Red?

Edit the Generals CSF file, or create a .str file (.str files are better, you can get one already made with the Deezire's modding tools)

for ZH get it here

for gen, there's on included in the Generals Editing Utilities in the download section

.str files don't need an editor, they can be edited as a text document... there's a csf file editor somewhere, but it doesn't really work properly

The only CSF file editor that works good that I know of is the one from Wolf-Town.com.

Thats a dead link Silent_killa.

It takes me to the MOD EMPIRE but there is no download section.

Vengence
To edit ,replace or to add new player colors [pink or purple colors in a military game,oh please ] open the MULTIPLAYER.INI file and scroll down and you will see these lines of text:

MultiplayerColor ColorGreen
RGBColor = R:62 G:209 B:46
RGBNightColor = R:62 G:209 B:46
TooltipName = Color:Green
End


A really good way to make and see your new colors is to open up Microsoft's PAINT and select EDIT COLORS.

Then select the CUSTOM COLORS and make your color.

The numbers in the RED,GREEN ,BLUE boxes are the numbers that you will copy into the R: G: B:

So lets say you wanted to add an olive green color or to replace the standard green,you would change it to this:

MultiplayerColor ColorOlive
RGBColor = R:120 G:136 B:87
RGBNightColor = R:120 G:136 B:87
TooltipName = Color:Olive
End
