How do I change chat color

[Rosnotinan]

I have difficulty seeing the blue color in chat. The green color, when people log in and out is ok. Is there a way to change the chat color to green?

Thanks

/setcolor <channel_name> N N N

where N N N represent positional parms with a value range of 0-1 for Red Green Blue, respectively

so you could try

/setcolor <channel> 0 1 0

and go from there

Personally I can't handle the default RED and always "/setcolor General 0 1 1" for a great Aqua that's easy to read.

Thanks Jerod. Just so I'm clear, to change the color for new player channel to say red, like yours, i would type without the quotes "/setcolor New Channel 0 1 1" ? Will that set it permanently or does this have to be done each time in game?

There is a way to do it, but I'm not sure if it works for New Players, because of the space in the name, I think you might have to type NewPlayers or New_Players instead.

The command is

/setcolor <Channel> <R> <G> <B>

R,G, and B are the red green and blue components of the color, on a scale from 0 to 1. For instance, if I wanted Broadcast to be green, I would type /setcolor Broadcast 0 1 0, if I wanted it to be Cyan, I would type something like /setcolor Broadcast 0 0.8 1.0 (just estimate the RGB values and play with them until you like the color).

C_Del has already answered and suggested how New Players *might* be handled - honestly don't know because of that space there.

As to your second question - these changes are preserved across sessions so you won't have to do it again for *that* character. New characters will still get the defaults so you'll need to change the settings when you create them (settings are unique for each character).

There is a color config tool here that does not work automatically like in live, but is helpful to find that color you want and getting the RGB numbers for it.
