Whats the script command to change the HUD color?

[FutureVisions]

I want to change the hud and pipboy colors and link them to a global variable.

Seems quite simple. But i just cant find any script commands to change the pipboy and hud colors.

Does any1 know if its possible to make a script for this? or if there's any other way?

I believe with the HDR Pipboy mod the Pipboy 'hud' color and the normal hud color are separated. Try getting a hold of that author to see how they accomplished it, maybe it'll tie into the same basic concept.

thanks i'll check it out. If found the script that lets me aces the ini seeting but i cant make it compile. I've been trying stuff on try and error system. so i've got to this point:

 

setINIsetting uPipboyColor to (10digit number here) <--- something around this changes the pipboy color

 

but im getting an error everytime i try to compile it, no matter what the number is (even if its the number its already using). i cant remember the exact error message though. I'll post it here later

 

also

 

setINIsetting uHudColor to (10digit number here) <--- something around this should do the same for the HUD

 

 

and again, thanks for your input Khet, yet again ;) kudos to you.

Is the error you're recieving the "SetINISetting is a console-only command"? If so then I don't think it's possible to change it with a script, unless there's a way to command the console with a script which I doubt... I'd say I'd take a look at it myself but to be honest I'm horrible at keeping promises (promised someone I'd figure out a script a few days ago now I don't even remember who it was and can't find their thread!) and I'm swamping myself with work between Expanded Exploration (almost ready for the first release!) and Alternate Start - Roleplayers.

Yea, this command is console only.

The error i was getting was : "Expected end of line/Compile not saved".

 

My idea was to make the Hud and Pipboy colors change depending on the hour of the day. So i have to connect these settings with the hour of the day. Well i only see this happening by script.

But unless its possible to make a "batFile script", im not seeying any other way of doing this, since this command is the only thing i found that allows to set the hud and pipboy colors without going to the menu.

Should even be a simple script like:

 

if getglobalvariable gameour > 06.00 && getglobalvariable gamehour < 19.00

setINIsetting(or Command to change the hud color) uHudColor to theColor

setINIsetting(or Command to change the pipboy color) uPipboyColor to theColor

 

something like this would allow to get a defined color during the hour period between 06.00 and 19.00 hours in-game.

 

Well i dont know if this just isn't possible or if im on he wrong track. If any one has any idea pls shoot.

Just stopped by to revive this topic.

Im still looking for a solution for this. Or a confirmation that it is not possible at all.
