Thread: Color Blind mode.

  1. #1

    Color Blind mode.

    So we did pyramid with a tank. We told the tank to watch for red or green and jump in green. Tank died. Ask him if he jumped into green. He told us he didn't know because he his red green colorblind. Can we maybe get a colorblind mode added to the game?

    i dont know what they should answer to this, a very special thing..
    this post kinda just forces you to give the dev's a task they dont realy ned to stand with.

    you know you can make team macro? it blinks green 5 times and red 5 times, so ... he can read if hes color blind yes?

    As for a colorblind option, I see this in more modern day fps/mmo's and games in general. I think this just wouldn't be feasible with this game and the supporting staff. I do not know a ton about being color blind but I believe there are several different types of color blindness. So what might work for your friend may not work with someone else's vision. So even making a small color or gray scale tweak might not be beneficial at all, especially if the developers know little about color blindness either. Not saying its is not doable or reasonable but I think it would be huge time investment that would yield little return.

    Does anyone know if SweetFX could be used to switch colour palettes ?
    If so, we could always help make a config for colour blind people.

    Please stay on topic and leave all offensive comments out, as far I can see this is a thread discussing a fix for those whose colorblind.

    There are SweetFX colorblind correction shaders available. I can't test them for effectiveness myself but I'll gladly assist anyone who IS colorblind and has any trouble setting this up for testing.

    It will only work with the new engine, though.

    Well Snooker used to be televised in black and white, with the aid of commentators it was watchable for everyone, I think the most likely "fix" for anyone with colour impaired vision would be from a sweetFX tweak, rather than from the FC team possibly easier too, I'll look into it sometime.

    Don't the green and the red change names as well? Look for the name not the color? Not 100% on this though.

    By including patterns, silhouetted shapes, inside the colors - or by having other indicators (spatial, like an American traffic light) - you can bypass the need for major changes.
