Chat Colors - PRODUCTION-201701171204-854626611

[JynX]

Hello DevBest,

I recently updated my EMU to PRODUCTION-201701171204-854626611 and it has the chat colors (as most newer ones do) but I then found that I can only do @Red@ @blue@ @Cyan@ @purple@ @green@, how can I go about adding/removing the chat colors or changing the color ID's for certain ones?

Thanks in advance.

lol unless you intend on editing your swf (which no one has done for colors afaik) you simply just use the HTML <font> tag surrounding a username.

You do this by modifying the Chat() function in your RoomUser class so that your send the Update Username packet composer along with the username enclosed in the font tag before the outgoing Shout/Chat packet composer then just send the same packet but with the real username after the chat packet.

Here are all the colours in the swf, you can add more by adding items to the array.

public static const COLOUR_ARRAY:Array = [["@Red@", 9115929], ["@Cyan@", 0x7F7F], ["@blue@", 19609], ["@green@", 0x8000], ["@purple@", 0x4C004C]];
0x4C004C = hex colour (for absolute noobs you replace 0x with # for the standard web based colour pickers).

As for usernames just change the username in chat packets. you should be able to use standard html.

Me and @Sledmore messed around with adding new chat colours into the swfs when they were first released. It's fairly easy, and I'm SURE many people have done it since then.

As for how to do it, you'll need to decompile the habbo.swf. What you'll need to edit can be found in the class "ChatColours".

 
Also note they're done in decimal, NOT Hex

Yeah noticed that when decompiled it xD for some reason as3 converts to hex - likely for a nicer output.

I added some to mine ages ago too, it's fairly easy as Damien stated

Thanks George, I could've solved it on my own but the issue was I didn't let my SWF decompiler fully decompile my SWF and therefore didn't have that class. A stupid mistake on my part, but then again Damien did help nonetheless as he basically had me retry it and I got it solved.

 

[Meap]

I did that too before and was on the verge of going mad looking for the class

Why didn't you just do it the easy way?
CTRL + F and find in all files then search for @Red@ or another colour

Because he's dumb

I'm glad you understand his reply, that is obviously a better way of doing things.

If you run into any additional complications you should post them here before the thread gets closed.
