Hmm... Description.ext?? Yes, i sure that's the way you should lead in order to achieve the objective.

Learn how to custom CutRsc text color here or search in another thread...

I believe there's other way of setting the text's color... something related with titletext and so... UnPBO Resistance.pbo campaign and check descriptions for more info. ;)

:-\ What's the prob?

"here" link gives you a little example of description.ext configuring... if you change "colorText" and "colorBackground" values, you'll have diferent color on your resouce's text. So, what's the prob?

Besides, I proposed you to unPBO the 'Resistance' campaign, as it carries some info about text font changing... And text color changing too, if I'm not wrong... ???

well, I realized that, by accident, I erased the beginning of the former message of me thus you couldn't get the problem.

the link offers some commands that didn't work for me and gave error as "error in expression" type... maybe due to version difference?


you say "resource"  do you mean making a different thing?  :-\  , I just copied the copy there ( link ) and then pasted on my description file. and the file was automatically loaded and gave error. so

if you don't mind and have time, can you attach a simple example of this? cause I am confused and you know when it happens it is difficult to do by yourself, thus I need to see a "finished file" - as I said your "here"  link is not offering "working command"  -

incidentally I am using 1.0 version  :-\ since my expansion cd is broken also can't download expansion packs cause internet is slow now...

see ya.
