Notes
Assuming you have the generals.csf extracted to the correct place.
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Command and Conquer Generals\Data\english
You have the multiplayer.ini extracted here
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Command and Conquer Generals\Data\INI
You have the csfeditor.
I used WinXP. Other OSs may vary.
Sorry if a Tutorial on this was posted already.
Adding Team Colors
1)Open the multiplayer.ini and scroll to
MultiplayerColor ColorPink
RGBColor = R:255 G:150 B:255
RGBNightColor = R:255 G:130 B:248
TooltipName = Color:Pink
End
2)Copy any color code and paste it under the pink code. (ill copy and paste the pink code)
3)Change the color name to your color. Ill add in grey.
MultiplayerColor ColorGrey
RGBColor = R:255 G:150 B:255
RGBNightColor = R:255 G:130 B:248
TooltipName = Color:Grey
End
4)change the RGBColor and RGBNightColor numbers to your color. (150 is what ill use)
MultiplayerColor ColorGrey
RGBColor = R:150 G:150 B:150
RGBNightColor = R:150 G:150 B:150
TooltipName = Color:Grey
End
5)Save and close.
Adding the Color Name
1)Open csfeditor editor and open the generals.csf
2)Scroll down to here (pic). Once there go up to the Action menu and choose Insert String Ins

3)Add your color following this example (pic). I added Grey. Then hit Add button

4)Now go up to File and choose Save.
Now go test out your new color in skirmish.
As you can see I added more colors and changed a few I felt didnt match there names like cyan and skyblue. Gold looking more like yellow.

Here's the Grey Team color in action
