Box score text color help?

satchel · 03-29-2004, 01:24 AM

One of my league owners can’t read the league box scores when he gets them out of the league file.

He can’t read the info, the dark grey text is too dark. Would someone help us fix his problem? Thanks.

Here’s his textcolors.ini file:

Code:

/RGB values of text colors used in OOTP.
10,10,10
100,100,100
236,22,48
0,255,0
150,150,150
110,110,110
240,240,152
167,167,151
100,240,240
100,250,100
167,167,151
245,235,220
255,145,55
255,150,150
0,150,0
245,245,230
242,233,186
70,75,105
240,240,255
255,255,255

Here’s a sample of the output:

He might need to disable the Direct3D setting in the Game Configuration (located in the OOTP folder). Honestly have no idea if that will solve the problem, but try it and let me know if it works.

Im not sure if this is the same thing. But if the commissioner is using a different skin on his game than the owners are using you can have that problem.

Has something to do with the style sheet for the skin. For some reason no matter what skin is used, if everyone has the same skin folder name then there isnt a problem.

yeah I that is the problem, and I believe there is a guide to the style sheet at Joerockehf's www.ootpdownloadcenter.com

Thanks for the help, we’re going to try the ideas listed here and I’ll report back.

The Direct-3d setting doesn’t affect the situation, we’ve tried toggling it back and forth.

As far as having consistent skin names, which skin folders need to be named the same? The commish’s skin he’s using when he generates the html (within the game) and the skin of the owner, who later puts those boxes into his own copy of the league file? (Do I have that concept correct?)

when that happens to me i just use control and a to select all text and its viewable that way but a pain.

Satchel here is what we did. I (commissioner) named my skin folder "online", didnt change anything in the folder. The owner that was not able to see the box scores named his skin folder "online", didnt change anything in his skin folder. Im pretty sure that corrected it.
