Hello,

My first post, as I just registered in hopes this would help someone.
I started using this plugin for my server and had the same problem, so troubleshooting I went.

The cause of this is by starting the text with a color, you can't start with any color for the first word, if added after the initial word, you are good to go.

    "2"
    {
        "type"        "S"
        "text"        "Type{GREEN} rtv {DEFAULT}to change the map!"
    }
    "3"
    {
        "type"        "S"
        "text"        "Join our {GREEN} Deathmatch{DEFAULT} Server:{GREEN} 0.0.0.0"
    }
    "4"
    {
        "type"        "S"
        "text"        "{DEFAULT}{GREEN} Join our Scoutzknivez Server: {DEFAULT}0.0.0.0"
    }

In bold is what you SHOULD NOT do until there is a fix. I am looking at the source code now, but I am sure DJ Tsunami will beat me to it.

EDIT: After some more testing I have found that the only working colors are: Green, Team and White.
Blue, Pink, Yellow and etc. are not working in any method that I have tried.

how do I only have the Msay ad (#6) display only once every 8 mins?

// Advertisements 0.5

Question/Suggestion: I'm thinking of coding in usability of MoreColors.inc for this. Has this already been done? I'd love to be able to use more colors in the advertisements, but I'm just not 100% sure of how to add it in, aside from #include <morecolors>

[redf0x]

hmm... my colors are not showing up whatsoever. Would anyone happen to have an idea why?

morecolors.inc only supports a few games, so at the present time colors.inc is the only way to have compatibility with all major Source branches.

Well I know that, but I do believe there is a way to detect if the game is TF2, and if so, enable the utilization of MoreColors.inc.

Either that, or I guess I can just easily go into the source code and modify the following lines:

PHP Code:

static g_iTColors[13][3] = { {255, 255, 255}, {255, 0, 0}, {0, 255, 0}, {0, 0, 255}, {255, 255, 0}, {255, 0, 255}, {0, 255, 255}, {255, 128, 0}, {255, 0, 128}, {128, 255, 0}, {0, 255, 128}, {128, 0, 255}, {0, 128, 255} };
static String:g_sTColors[13][12] = { "{WHITE}", "{RED}", "{GREEN}", "{BLUE}", "{YELLOW}", "{PURPLE}", "{CYAN}", "{ORANGE}", "{PINK}", "{OLIVE}", "{LIME}", "{VIOLET}", "{LIGHTBLUE}" }; 


And just add in a new "{0, 128, 255}" and "{COLORNAME}" to both, then add in "#include <morecolors.inc>" at the top. Hell, if I modify the RGB values, I might not even need morecolors.inc

Either way, this should be implemented (or at least have the creator of this create a "TF2-specific, MoreColors.inc-using" version of this plugin)

.inc file are resolved at compile time. Since colors and morecolors have identically named functions, you can't include both in the same plugin. So, someone would have to create a separate version.

Besides which, since when do non-Source 2009 games support RGB colors in their messages?

[DJ Tsunami]

The quoted code is for top-left messages, I'm pretty sure most if not all games support RGB in there. For chat messages it's a different story as you mentioned.

Advanced Advertisements by minimoney1 does support colors and morecolors as 2 separate plugins, but I believe it's still undergoing a rewrite. As for this plugin, I've been ill, but once I get better I intend to address the minor bugs in 0.6, and when I have more time look into colors/morecolors and other expansions. SourceBans is a bigger priority though, so we'll see.

Is this still the case? I have just changed server provider and the adds were working in color on my old host but not my new one.

I have a problem with the display. I attach a screenshot.
Text must drop a little lower.
