Seems to be after LU8 the color text no longer work, all my previous hotbutton show the color but no display in chat, same if I do it manually.

Has anyone checked on Test Server if the colored text works?

Hopefully they put it back. As a Paladin it sure was nice to be able to draw attention to my pulling macro.

They nerfed this intentionally, as I understand it. I doubt it will come back.

I saw someone use colored text in game today. It seems it still work but the player didn't want to tell me how ;)

I am able to change the color in the macro window (like this /g \#FF0000HELLO) but it doesn't work when I use the macro :(

Any idea ?

PS : I logged what he said :

The change probably hasn't hit the non-English servers yet.

When I try to do the same in the macros, the colors appear in the macro window but it doesn't write in the chat (same symptoms as english servers, like post #27).

I have the answer, it only works on craft and ooc channels. Not in group or guild channels.

Were is the log file for the item numbers?

Anyone get this to work again?

(i'm french so excuse my mistakes ^^
i wish you will understand)

there's a problem with this function, since the add-on "DoF" ?

i've tried this fun command,
but my texts are white...

i've tried
"\#ff0000kikoo"
"/#ff0000kikoo"

the colour disappear when i finish to wrote it,
but the colour is not applicated.

some news about this ?

[Landiin]

The news on it is SOE took that out of the game. It was taken out some time back for the US/english servers. I guess with the release of DoF they got to your server.
