I have seen other posts on this before. I have tried the answers given without any success. Could someone please try to explain to me how this is done?

I just found out today. You use the same hex code in html to change the color of the text in planetside. For example, if I want to broadcast a message in black text, i would type "/b \#EEE099 <message>". At least I'm pretty sure thats the black code. You can always do a search on html to find the correct code for whatever color you want. Just make sure you type in the "\#" and then the hex code.

You had it right, but black is #000000 :) Remember it's 3 sets of 2 for RGB.. I think in planetside it's actually BGR but I'm not sure. Every time I make a macro I have to test it.

I've been telling people how to do this for a while.. The thing is, several patches ago the notes said they removed it. I wonder if they messed up or if they were talking about something else?

They did remove it, but now it works again :lol:

0 to f is hex colors
000000 (black) to ffffff (white)

I think 00ff00 is green, 0000ff is blue or purple...... I cant remember many, been too long since I used them lol

IF you have photoshop, you might be able to do thsi with regualr paint but im not sure, you can go into the color customizer, by double-clicking oen of the color patches that lay on top of each other, move it to where you want the color to be, and it'll give you a code below. You can copy nad paste it i think but be safe and just write it down. When you get in game use teh code and there you go.

btw, I haven't tested this.
