Default Changing/Adding colors

I've downloaded New Tech Mod (R2) (an INI-pack) wich added some colors (Mud, Dirt & Olive) these are nice colors.

I've deleted the INI-pack and added the colors myself in Data\INI\multiplayer.ini
The problem is, when selecting these colors (i.e. @ Skirmish) it looks like this:


Does anyone know how to remove the MISSING-*info* or how to add colors that don't give this error?

Thanks in advance
Mzzl, Chris

That just means the game can't find the string file entry for them, don't worry, test it in game

Just add a new string to the english.csf example

In the Name field = Color:Grey
In the Value field = Grey

I just added about 10 colours lol, and alot of tool tips and descriptions for various units a certain Tech Mod R2.1 had called "Missing" lol. Much better now. The csf editor i have is real easy and makes the CSFs look not so daunting.

Reminds me of visual basic that im learning at college

Dont know if its the same editor or not because i cant be bothered checking, but hte one i got is from GenEdit2k:
