Button / Script to change chat colors
 

Chat colors seem to be stored server side based on my observations and posts on the boards. I'd like a means to set them via a button or some script. I'm happy to code the button if anyone can point me to a command that I could use in an OnPress or something. I'd like to be able to use this to set chat colors back after issues with options window resetting colors, as well as being able to quick apply changes to multiple accounts. Going in and setting each one manually is just ...silly.

I'd found and tried a command /save_colors. It creates a file named whatever is after the command in the main EQ2 directory. So tried "/save_colors omgcolor". Then tried "/load_colors omgcolor" and there was no visible effect. Chat colors did not correspond to those that were in effect at the time the /save_colors was run.

p.s. the file generated by the /save_colors command does indeed contain all the chat colors and their values. File attached after I added a .txt extention to allow posting. Sample below:

ChatDefault #FFFFFF
ChatError #FF0000
ChatStatus #F2CD00
ChatMOTD #F2CD00
ChatErrorLink #FF0000
ChatDefaultLink #FFFF00
ChatStatusLink #F2CD00
ChatMOTDLink #F2CD80
ChatSay #FFFFFF
ChatShout #FF0000

I started to play around with this. It actually does change the colors to the stuff in the file, at least for my tests. It doesn't retro the colors already in the chat box like when you do this through Options. This is a very good find, thank you! :)

Very, very nice find!
I dont' personally have my chat colors set from anything but the default values, but the fact that you got this save colors file to work is very nice.
There are a few in the list that I can't wait to play with.
To bad they don't refreash instantly.
