    Text color

    Does anyone know how to give a faction black color, the same as spartans have, and at the same time, they would have white letter color in the text?

    Doesn't copying the color part of their graphics file help?

    I remember that when I made a new faction by simply renaming spartan files - text suddenly started to draw black...

    Yes, but perhaps try to copy the color part of the spartan graphics file, and paste it on your new faction file.

    I created a faction by changeing their name to spartanx. I copied all spartan files adding "x" to them. text was black afterwards. i have a bad feeling word "spartan" may be hardcoded into exe like:
    ... if string is "spartan" then font text use white else black
    but i am not sure of that.
    I wish someone prove me wrong

    ...hardcoding - my favourite way of designing applications
