Dimmer Contour Lines Overlay

Description
UPDATE: As of the current Beta (2023-02), this mod doesn't seem to be necessary anymore, as the game developers have dimmed the vanilla overlay screens (finally!). I have modified it to so that it will continue to function on the current (pre-Beta) version, but will do nothing for the Beta (and presumably, future releases). You can safely remove it from safe files if you want, and I'll probably remove it once the Beta is fully released.

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: Replaces the blindingly bright white background of the contour lines overlay screen with a dimmer grey. There doesn't seem to be a way to remove the shading all together; all I could do was change the colour, so I decided just to make it a neutral grey (0.5, 0.5, 0.5). Strangely, the background colours of the other overlays don't seem to be modifiable (at least, not obviously).

I replaced all 0.82, 0.82. 0.82 the base_config (4 entries) so I have it for all modes working
but I used 0.52, 0.52, 0.22 instead, I love a warm tone khaki style like my Notepad++ :D

Hey all,

As of the current Beta (2023-02), this mod doesn't seem to be necessary anymore, as the game developers have dimmed the vanilla overlay screens (finally!). I have modified it to so that it will continue to function on the current (pre-Beta) version, but will do nothing for the Beta (and presumably, future releases).

If you've already switched to the Beta, you don't need it anymore, and can safely remove it from safe files if you want.

to prevent game from crashing on map load (or load menu access)
when using Beta (today's update 35171)
You need to update the mod.lua
replace
[code]game.config.gui.contourLinesConfig[/code]
with
[code]game.config.gui.layers.contourLines[/code]

If you wish to immediatly update the mod, it would require determaniting the current version to support both, then something like
[code]
if game.config.gui.contourLinesConfig == nil then
game.config.gui.layers.contourLines.baseColor = { 0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5 }
else
game.config.gui.contourLinesConfig.baseColor = { 0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5 }
end
[/code]

Just got the game and this is the 1st and most urgent mod I'm subscribing to. What on earth were they thinking? That this gawdawful whiteout was an improvement?? I'd really prefer it just being back to how it was in TpF1, but this at least will make it a little less painful & dis-immersive. Thank you!

That background is the worst feature of TF2. I was hoping they would get rid after the update

What SemiPerfect said... is there a way to completely disable?
Having the screen go white every time I interact with the LineManager makes my eyes bleed.
(Can't believe they went with this design...)

Thank you. Is there a way to disable it completely?
