If the color <06> shows red on the right side, then it should be red in-game.

If you mean from the game lobby, no, you can't overlap or color the forces and you can only overlap the map name.

Well, he can't be talking about that, since he said it comes out a different color.

Can you post the string? Also, there was a topic recently that told about overlaps, it had a few sources on how to do them posted there as well, here's the post: http://www.staredit.net/?topic=183.

As for the color, <06> should work fine as a red. You would type "<06>Name" in the unit's name.

As for overlapping, make sure you're not trying to overlap in the forces. If you overlap in the Map Name, which is possible, nobody else will be able to join your game. Screw patch 1.14, eh?

The code for overlapping is as follows..

[BACK][COLOR][NAME][FRONT][COLOR][NAME][TAB][TAB][TAB][SPACE][SPACE]

Of course, there isn't the "[ ]"'s, and instead of writing out "BACK", you'd use the back symbol.

If you need it more in depth, use this tutorial.

It should explain a little more in depth, as well as how the number of Tabs should vary.

The colors are here, and that should be about everything you need.

Of course, if you're lazy, here is a quick list of some of the colors. ;) ( Take note that Red is, indeed, 06. )

Um, whiteish-blue is the default color of the game name, so yes, he could be talking about that.

Okay, so he probably is putting it in wrong if the color isn't showing up.

LOL, I guess that's something that SCM Draft is missing that X-tra has, yes, some colors, like gray, will not allow you to change colors after using them.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating
