Technical City Editing Question (colors)

[alwinter]

Hi, I have recently figured out that you can change the flags for your cities and I think this makes scenario creation and gameplay much better. It really just looks better. Anyway, the problem I am having now is how to change the font color on the names of the cities on the main game map. I can change the unit color and would be happy to impart this knowledge to anyone else. thanks, alwinter

Nevermind, I figured it out. The color bar above each flag dictates font color...

just remember where to put the pixel color in the national flag that determines the national color. if you dont know what the _ I am talking about, e-mail me at weimar_republic@hotmail.com and I will send you a file that explains it pretty well

alwinter,

Do you have the 'allflags.gif'? It is a huge collection of modern countries' flags. It's certainly available on the net, but I'm too lazy to fetch a link.

Email is in my profile, I can send it to you if you want. All thats needed it a little cut n' paste.
