Help Requested: Item Colors

[bardamusakio]

I am attempting to change the colors of all unique items.
I understand that I can add colors to the 'item-names' file, but this will only affect identified uniques.
From other posts I am lead to believe my goal is achievable through the pal.pl2 files. (https://d2mods.info/forum/viewtopic.php?t=30754)

each table is 256 bytes, so they are 1714*256=438784 bytes.
The text color table is at file offset 0x6B600 (439808 in decimal).

Code: Select all

06B600 FF FF FF FF 4D 4D 00 FF   00 69 69 FF C7 B3 77 69
06B610 69 69 00 00 00 D0 C2 7D   FF A8 00 FF FF 64 00 80
06B620 00 AE 00 FF 00 C8 00

My offset appears to be different at 0x6B5FB, but was able to find the unique color ID C7 B3 77


If I just change this to B200FF uniques should be THIS COLOR, right?

If I'm correct so far my only question is how to repackage/implement this mod.
How do I package that change back into a mpq?
Then I can just use a command line argument -mod UniqPurpl -txt to enable it?

I got this back into an mpq and tried loading it... no change
Any one else have any luck for a change like this?

So, I think here you're actually talking about Diablo 2 Resurrected.

In that case, what you want to do is edit the /data/global/ui/layouts/_profilehd.json. In this file, you can find the colours defined near the top using RGBA values. You can define new colours here, adjust existing ones, etc. You can also edit what colours are used - for example, line 302:

Code: Select all

        "UniqueColor": "$FontColorGoldYellow",

Simply change this to "$FontColorLightPurple", and you'll switch the colour of unique items on the ground.
