Well, the deal is, is there a way to change the default red & blue team colours to any other colour source? since it's not really possible using a different biped for each team, could it be possible to change the team colours?
Using a pre-coloured biped is an option, but then you bump agains the fact both teams will be that colour =/
so, any ideas on how to?

Can anyone with skills awnser my question?

I haz skills, but ruining the Red vs Blue system would be D=

Why not just have the game FFA and set everyone's color to purple and yellow but I advise coming up with your own idea. Purple VS Yellow, Orange Vs Green, Black Vs White it's all been done before and failed.

what? no that's not my idea, actually i made a L4D cityblock map, not done yet, and i already wanted to know if i can change colours, why?

Because the Infection gametype from halo 3 is perfect for this map.

and if i can change the colours to white for zombies and whatever for humans, then that would be cool.
I know that we can't use different bipeds, otherwise i'd put humans and if you get infected the zombie model (human flood form with more zombie like texture, all gory)

well that was the idea, but if it's not possible, what i already thought would be, then it would just be a minus point but not a suicidal problem

time doesn't mean skills, and you just said you phail yourself, no excuse.

if it's not possible, then topic closed. time to unsubscribe.

Um...isn't there an option in the .biped tag? Change Colours.

So your going to remake an already stupid machinima with different colors, WOW YOU ARE SO CREATIVE, IM SURPRISED YOU THOUGHT OF THAT ON YOUR OWN

Red vs Blue wasn't dumb. :(
Okay they are morons

i can but only on one condition...
you tell me about your specs and what file format i need to use to have HD quality on youtube.

sounds fair enough if you ask me.

Shouldnt there be a bitmap\shader for this? i meen the game cant just generate them....

the bitmap is white, the shader alows colorchange along the white, and the game generates the color overtop of the white. So your sorta right.. the game cant generate the bitmaps, but it does generate the colors, defeating the perpose of your comment.


make a biped with a purple and yellow permutation. make the spawn areas of the map have a volume trigger. make it so when they spawn within that volume trigger, it sets their permutation to their teams color. The end.

if you dont want to go through all the trouble of doing that theres a way faster and easier way.

2 words....

after effects.

That really helps man, thanks

I'm here to defend red vs blue. I may have spelled the charecter's name wrong, but that's because I suck at spelling.

As for the color change, is it coded into the game or is it in the tags? I still don't get it.

you all are making it way harder then it should be. just use adobe after effects and put change to color effect and their you go, purple vs yellow that easy. no scripting or what not jsut film what you need to and you chance the colors after.

the triger volume sounds very possible, but it can also be done wiht i script i think

But how would this affect in normal slayer....

I was gonna say the same. Unfortunately, the first person arms will be red or blue.
You'll need a new gbxmodel, 2 new shaders, 2 new base maps with the colors (use the multipurposes blue channel to color them), and a new multipurpose with it's blue channel black, so it doesn't recolor.

I think you'd turn black. It reduces white to red or blue, so it must subtract green&blue or red&green. Subtracting red&green from red would be black, if i figured correctly.

wouldnt it be eisier if... you some how.. edit the multi bitmap, that in a way, when it changes, it makes purple or yellow.. idk just brainstorming
