Must be abandoned. :(

This is by far the best set of extended colors available. Is there any way to make it compatible with more than the vanilla game? Take TNO, for instance. I believe that more than any theater or unit icon, and expanded number of colors to quickly choose from is the most beneficial modification for quickly identifying armies. NATO style counters can be great, but I imagine that takes more time to mod and has less interest from the community. Other than this mod, only My Favorite Theater Icons currently offers more color choices. Your mod has a superior selection, in my opinion. Sadly, neither have been recently updated. If the expanded set of colors was more widely compatible, I believe it would help the community a lot.

Everyone, of course this breaks Ironman. Adding the expanded color palette modifies the game files in a way that does not allow achievements and never will.

Will the update still be "Coming Soon?" It's been almost 4 months.

Seconding - this somehow breaks Ironman comp in 1.9.3
Wolfskrieg 10 Jul, 2020 @ 9:48am 
It appears it isn't, can it be made ironman comp?
Wolfskrieg 4 Jul, 2020 @ 10:19pm 
Is this Ironman compatible?

Wolfskrieg 11 Jun, 2020 @ 12:52am

FitnessGram™ Pacer Test 6 Mar, 2020 @ 4:20pm 
Please update. :-)

there a cat on the menu when not using with the MPU theatre mod, maybe missing background image? i wanted to use it with vanilla icon
mpu.daemos  [author] 10 Dec, 2019 @ 11:41pm 
Updated to v1.8.1
I've only given this a quick test so let me know if there's any problems
C00lCucumber 8 Dec, 2019 @ 2:55pm 
is it compatible with 1.8.1?
mpu.daemos  [author] 5 Jul, 2019 @ 4:49am 
Updated for v1.7.1
mpu.daemos  [author] 7 Jun, 2019 @ 7:57am 
Updated to v1.7.0
Margok 17 May, 2019 @ 10:27pm 
Ah, thats too bad, your Mods are realy awesome.
mpu.daemos  [author] 16 May, 2019 @ 4:45pm 
@Margok: Not that I know of (or I would have already ;-)

To change the preset colours, I overrode the game's COMMANDGROUP_PRESET_COLORS_HSV define which lists the original colours... as far as I'm aware, as soon as you modify any of the game's defines (even if it's just to change a colour), the game will no longer support achievements
Margok 16 May, 2019 @ 12:41am 
Is there a way to make something like this, but without disabling achievements?
mpu.daemos  [author] 29 Apr, 2019 @ 8:17am 
Updated for v1.6.2
ClaudeJ 17 Apr, 2019 @ 6:19am 
Simple in concept yet so useful, thanks a lot @mpu.daemos! :thumbsup:
FistFullOBeer 15 Mar, 2019 @ 7:26pm 
This is great!
Dieselboater 15 Mar, 2019 @ 6:17pm 
Thank you!!
Marv de Marvenlöse 15 Mar, 2019 @ 11:58am 
excellent ! thank you
mpu.daemos  [author] 15 Mar, 2019 @ 11:56am 
Updated for v1.6.1... changed the size / columns of the insignia window a little to accommodate the new theatre icons mod
mpu.daemos  [author] 12 Mar, 2019 @ 3:43am 
@-maverick2901-: can you describe what the issue is without the MTG dlc? When I get some time, I'll try and disable MTG and investigate myself however it'll be easier to tell if I've resolved your particular issue if you can roughly describe it.

If I can, I'd prefer to fix it in this mod rather than support two different versions, however I can do a non MTG version as a last resort. Thanks 8-)
-maverick2901- 10 Mar, 2019 @ 7:05am 
Hi. Could you upload the versions for 1.5.4 again fpr people who don´t have the DLC?
mpu.daemos  [author] 1 Mar, 2019 @ 11:38am 
Updated for v1.6.0
Leo3ABP 16 Sep, 2018 @ 9:57am 
Too bad :( Thanks for your answer.
mpu.daemos  [author] 16 Sep, 2018 @ 9:51am 
@Leo3ABP: unfortunately no. Modifying the game's graphics defines (in order to add extra colours) changes the games checksum
Leo3ABP 16 Sep, 2018 @ 9:32am 
does this work with Ironman?
mpu.daemos  [author] 2 Aug, 2018 @ 11:43am 
@maverick: in that case, have at it then 8-)
maverick 2 Aug, 2018 @ 11:39am 
Already busy all day with this. Pretty far already
mpu.daemos  [author] 2 Aug, 2018 @ 10:31am 
@maverick: no problem at all. However, I'm right now in the middle of making a BICE compatible version of my theatre icons mod... I can do this one as well if you like
maverick 2 Aug, 2018 @ 6:39am 
Is it problem of taking parts of your mod into Blackice? Credits will be given offcourse.
Mapno 19 Jul, 2018 @ 8:05am 
Thankyou very much.
mpu.daemos  [author] 19 Jul, 2018 @ 6:20am 
@марио: Sure, no problem.
Mapno 19 Jul, 2018 @ 2:04am 
Hi, would it be possible to use your mod in a mod im making please? with proper credit ofc. thanks
FitnessGram™ Pacer Test 16 Jul, 2018 @ 11:15pm 
Ty!
mpu.daemos  [author] 16 Jul, 2018 @ 10:47pm 
Upodated to work with both MPU and vanilla theatre icons. Enjoy 8-)
FitnessGram™ Pacer Test 16 Jul, 2018 @ 10:37pm 
idc lol :-)
mpu.daemos  [author] 16 Jul, 2018 @ 10:14pm 
@[WAR] Maximum Effort: can you live with the insignia selection window being resized? I'm just in the process of making this mod work with vanilla icons and my Theatre Icons mod but I would need to include the resized insignia window from MPU Theatre icons.
FitnessGram™ Pacer Test 16 Jul, 2018 @ 6:32pm 
Yes please! I've always used it with the vanilla icons and not with the MPU NATO. I would love to see a version like that. :-)
mpu.daemos  [author] 16 Jul, 2018 @ 3:32pm 
@[WAR] Maximum Effort: are you using this mod by itself or with the "MPU Theatre Icons - NATO like counters" as well? The theatre icons mod now adds it's own background image rather than overwriting the vanilla background image. Without the theatre icons mod, you will have no background for the Insignia window... plus the colour picker is probably in a strange spot for you now as I changed the size of the window in my other mod.

If there's a bunch of people just using the colour picker mod by itself, I can do a stand-alone version so you can use it with the vanilla theatre icons.
FitnessGram™ Pacer Test 16 Jul, 2018 @ 1:56pm 
I should add that it only started looking like this after your last update.
FitnessGram™ Pacer Test 16 Jul, 2018 @ 1:55pm 
For some reason, my version of this has no background. I can see all of the buttons and the colors and the text box, but the background is see-through.
thinking shobe 28 Mar, 2018 @ 5:27pm 
I was joking, I don't care how you spell Colo(u)rs
mpu.daemos  [author] 27 Mar, 2018 @ 4:59am 
@Mr. Doggo: It might let you start an Ironman game (if that's all you're after) but it's not achievement compatible. Unfortunately, changing the colour picker is enough to change the game's checksum.

@billoni billfi of house arpad: sorry for the "International English" but given I'm Australian, I feel that it's already spelt correctly ;-)
