HUD / UI Color do not respecting game Changes on "Aditional game Settings"

[reneberwangerhogarth]

When changing the UI color on Aditional game settings, all UI elements respect that, even CoursePlay.
But AD dont.
I've tryed to find on XML data something to submit a pull request, but my knowledge is limited on this file structure.

Why should AD accept values from other mods?

The AD Hud surface cannot be changed via color values in an xml file.
You need to change the color in the file textures/ad_gui.dds using a program such as Paint.

@regs1980 that's not entirely correct, because there is a color mode in AD. It's just not as easy to use as in other mods, but it is accessible.

Because I'm color blind and need to change the UI colors.

Yeah. I'm found that is "hardcoded" in a DDS file. Thank you. But is a Good QOL to move this to a code way.

There is a color assignment mode, where you can change nearly every color. Check the AD settings.

If I switch to Custom Color in the AD settings, where can I change the color of the HUD?

[Iwan1803]

It's been so long since I tried this but i think you have to activate editor mode and then just click anywhere.

[regs1980]

The Custom Color setting only changes the text color in the HUD and then the lines and dots of the course, but even the HUD color cannot be changed unless you change the green to another color in ad_gui.dds.

Aditional game settings is directly manipulating CoursePlay.
I will extend the AD color assignments to header and background of the HUD and the destination text color.

Works very well.
That's perfect, thank you.
