Ok, it's a bit of a newbie question, but how/where can I change the color of the menubar? I know it's possible because I saw it in Pharaoh Quest. -Allen |

You have to change the palette of the game... which changes white and black for everything(pictures, views, etc...) So it changes the colors of views and pictures and such even though you only wanted to change the menu colors. |
| Kon-Tiki | Besides that, isn't that palet change a hack? You'll have to patch the interpreter, then make the whole game around this new palette. |
| AGI1122 | Yeah, I have actually used the palette hack before. I have 2 templates that have changed menu's. One with a black menu and red text, and the other with a black menu and blue text. |
| Eero R | Hmm, someone could write an utility to change the colors on all the pictures and views... |
| AGI1122 | Um it already exists, check Brian's AGI & SCI site. ;) |

1. If you just wanted to change the colour of the menubar, all you'd need to do is change a couple bytes in the decrypted EXE. 2. If you just wanted to change the colour of the status bar with no hacking, you can disable it and draw a custom one. 3. If you want different colours, you can use the modified interpreter with or without the additional mouse support, and my creating the palette using the editor utility also on my site. 4. If you want 256 colours, you can use the special AGI256-2 patch with the editor utility for your graphics. All on my site. |
