Im colorblind to orange/some reds

(PlatinuMRage) #1

Hello All,

As the title states I am colour blind to the colour orange and a few reds in such the look grey for me due to me losing my sight in my left eye a couple years ago (I can see again in the eye again dont worry!). But I heard of changing the colours of names on the enemies but is there a way to change the colours of the Outlines as well as like I say they go grey. This is the main reason I play Redeye (more like Greyeye(sorry terrible joke)) because of his IR ability but when I spot people and the IR ends the spotted marks look grey through the smoke making it hard to track people and they kinda blend in…

What I know about the topic:

  • There is a Shooterui.ini file
  • There is a section for colour changing for the names
  • It is allowed to edit this file

What I’m not sure on:

  • Can i change the outline colour of enemies and allies?
  • If so is it the same ini file?

A suggestion or two for SplashDamage (whom i thank for all the updates)

  • Make these type of setting available ingame with an Example showing what it would look like (same concept as crosshairs on main menu settings
  • Add a colour blind mode to the games for the types of colour blind people
  • (offtopic) T****__****he credits system seems a little grindy for casual players like me who cant put as many hours into the game to get the mercs/and cant put money on the to game.

If you read this till the end thank you very much. Please don’t be too harsh with your comments on this post.

Once Again Many Thanks Josh (PlatinuMRage)

You can only change the IFF nameplates. 3D rendered stuff is not modifiable.

I don’t know the priority of a colourblind mode but it will be a thing eventually.
It’s not possible to edit the outline colour as nokill already mentioned.

Here is a guide:

By the way, missions are your primary source of credits income so make sure you focus on them.

I wish Redeye’s scanner would last as long as his smoke…or maybe even be on permanently, since it is his eye.

I think you have the wrong thread.

You may enjoy creating your own custom HUD using Xyfurion’s tool. It’s pinned in the general tab.
