Support for Source 2009's color codes
« on: December 23, 2012, 04:43:18 am »

I wish to request support for the /x07 hex character (bell) that allows setting up of color codes of any color, like in Source 2009 games such as TF2. I request this because my server uses SourceMod, and a lot of the advertisements I have in the server are color coded. They end up showing up as say: "00FF00This is an announcent" rather than: "This is an announcement"

I know about that, but still doesn't serve what I need. I need the x07 control character method to maintain compatibility with a lot of sourcemod plugins.

Basically, you can enter the Bell Control Character (Hex: 0x07), and then a color code (ie: FF0000 for red) before the text you wish to color. You can use as many as these as you want in a string, and can be any color. In SourceMod, they are used by doing something like this (a piece of code from one of my plugins):    

Code: [Select]
PrintToChatAll("\x07222222[\x076000FFStrikerMod\x07222222] \x07FF0000Player In Blocked Group Detected \x07FFFFFF- \x07FF0000Name: \x07FFFF00%N \x07FFFFFF| \x07FF0000Group ID: \x07FFFF00%d", client, groupAccountID);
In sourcemod, \x indicates that you're specifying an ASCII Hex index in your string.





Source 2009 games like HL2DM, TF2, and CS:Source will read these codes, but, GoldenEye: Source does not, so it ends up making a huge mess of the output.

I take it this was added in the new release?

I must have mistook "Added color hinting to HUD Messages" as something else.
