[Dec 09] Mini-feature: Party fixes

[Jackard]

if you really wanted to keep the colors as-is, you could give the message box a black background

[mikayel]

I'd be fine with that but I guess it would break from the current theme of old paper/wood. just some way to read chat without needing to highlight the text every 5 seconds only to see "lol guys found a q10 bear hide"

[Lothaudus]

OH GOD MY EYES!! I CAN'T SEE!

Yarrr... colours need a bit of work. I second the black chat window background suggestion.

[Jevon]

Yeah, black background or coloured anmes only would be the best option.

Or how about removing yellow completely. SHUN THE EVIL COLOUR.

[loftar]

color code the name but not what they say

That would be very nice, of course (that's how I wanted to do it from the beginning), but the client's text rendering code doesn't support any markup right now, so it's kind of impossible. I hope to remedy it, but as I've written elsewhere, Java's text rendering APIs aren't entirely easy to penetrate.

Hooray for updates in the middle of the week!

EDIT 2: I guess I might as well take this opportunity to announce another mini-feature that's actually been in the client a while now: you can adjust the volume of the sound effects by typing ":sfxvol VOLUME", where VOLUME is a number between 0 and 1. For instance, ":sfxvol 0.25" will set the volume to 25% of normal. It is properly saved between sessions.

That's it.

what about music?

Pacho's client already has a scrollbar for that. It's easier to use and non-confusing

I plan to fix that, but I want to integrate it with a couple of other music fixes I have planned.

Good work yet again on the party system loftar. Unfortunately this new light grey/bloueish that is a yellowish avatar is now impossible to read =P but thanks for getting rid of yellow. This one is *slightly* easier to read but not by much =P
