Might I suggest having an image of a sabre and warrior together showing the teamcolors of the last edited line, or at least some kind of unit preview?

Might come in handy to see exactly how it would show up in game, similar to ODLWinter, but it doesn't have to be 3D (extra credit if it is! :P)

Team 0 is really Team 1... right?

And do I just save this to the root folder?

Steeveeo

No, Team 0 is Team 0, i.e. "No team" (grey on radar)

So no bugs found?

This is a first version thing so I expect some sort of bugs, especially with how complicated the code is in some areas relating to file loading/saving. :P

And I could show a preview, but unless I know the exact way BZ2 draws colors, it will be off, as well as the fact that the preview window surrounded by your desktop will give another 'feel' to the colors that would be unlike the game.  Best to check inside the game itself, but I could add a preview if really wanted.

And yes, Team 0 is the neutral team, as Steeveeo said, the ones that are gray on the radar.

And save this anywhere, nothing special about it.  It does require the VS2k5SP1 runtimes, but since BZ21.3 installs those for you, you have everything you need, just run this from anywhere.

Wait... so I save it... and then I just run it and it opens the game for me?  I'm confused...

This program makes putting the RGB(A) values for Teamcolor much simpler. Open your localprefs.ini, make your color changes, save, run BZ2.

Oooooooooooh..... I get it now.

Sorry, I'm helpless without someone holding my hand the whole way through.

OvermindDL1

Heh, you have plenty of help here as always.  :)

So no bugs?  No random deletion of large chunks or even single characters of a file or anything?  Is it good?

A bug with the download, it hangs on 'starting'... Any chance somebody could send me this some other way? :(

OvermindDL1

I see no issue with the download, and it has been downloaded by 37 others.  What browser are you using?

Firefox, most likely same as most other downloaders.

OvermindDL1

Works fine here, and I know most others that downloaded it are using that as well.  Try again?

Got an idea, I'll try it on my laptop :)
