I was on a track and i saw this guy who was a blue cycle and making white walls, and i asked how i could be a black cycle and make red walls, he told me and i wrote it down on a piece of paper. before i went to bed, i turned off my computer, then the next day when i got on, my cycle was red and i was making red walls... i looked and looked for my piece of paper that i had writen the 3 different codes on, and could not find it, i am asking people if they know the 3 codes that you use to turn into a black cycle and have red walls.

One possible combination is:
Red: 16
Green: 0
Blue: 0

Ah, of course. This has become so obvious to me that I just don't think of it. You have to enable the console first by binding a key to it in System Setup -> Misc Stuff -> Global Keyboard Configuration -> Console input. Once you have done that, start a local game and press P to pause it (in the main menu the console is less usable). Then hit the key you just bound to the console. A prompt should pop up. You can view/change certain settings using it, and enter values that cannot be selected in the standard menus. For example,

Code: Select all

COLOR_R_1

(it's case insensitive, but internally it appears to use uppercase) displays the red value for player 1. More interesting is

Code: Select all

COLOR_G_2 16

, which changes player 2's green to 16. Color changes only take effect in the next round in a local game, or possibly after several in a network game.

Thanks so much, and when you do that, you have your cycle black while you do it, thanks!

Quoted post

I thought it followed from the other examples that COLOR_B_1 is blue? Anyway,

Code: Select all

COLOR_R_1 16
COLOR_G_1 0
COLOR_B_1 0

should give a black cycle with red walls. Or didn't I interpret your question correctly? I'm wondering what you meant by default greyish black, and how you got there.
