I have the config file in the correct folder. Not sure what's causing the issue.
Currently the script still uses the config file "simple-chatcolors.cfg" whereas it's meant to say "custom-chatcolors.cfg" to reflect the new name change. (If you want to fix it yourself, just change that line in the script (currently line 49) and you'll be good.)

Rename custom-chatcolors.cfg to simple-chatcolors.cfg. For some reason that is the path in the source code.

Oh yea btw they already added chat colors to CS:S:

It would be cool if you added a option to set a color depending what team the player was on.

"team1" "#FFFFFF"
"team2" "#FFFFFF"
"team3" "#FFFFFF"

You clearly didn't read my message right above yours. First, you just superfluously re-confirm that the two file names are different. Secondly, despite your confusion, I already explain why this bug occurred. Thirdly (and this applies to Mr. Man as well) I would not recommend renaming your config one to the erroneous file name since, as soon as Dr. McKay rolls out the next update, you'll have to change the file name again.

Maybe it's just me, but I like to fix things the first time, Fearts, rather than fix them twice.

Relax bud. I didn't see your post. Your big words confuse me.

I thought about it, but it got overly complex.

I'm about to break your stuff.

I think I can handle the pressure that comes with renaming files

Alright, v1.0.2 is live and fixes the mis-named config file problem. Sorry about that. :/

If CS:S does in fact support custom chat colors now, this should work fine on CS:S as well. Let me know.

If you're using Updater, sm_updater_check should be sufficient to get you the new version. Make sure you re-rename your config file.
