i tried installing it just like the thread you linked me said to. i put the PK3 in my skins folder. and nothing happened. i cant change my name or type in neon with it. wtf.

It's a bit odd to use the new colors.  I had to experiment to figure it out (even after reading the post).  Normally for a color you'd, let's say red, you'd do cgThisIsRed.  However, if you want to use one of the new colors, let's say a black outline, you'd do c[b7]ThisIsBlackOutline.

I saw someone named Zero who had a black colored name but he had a red background behind his name. How does one do this?

Without mods, i mean.

The "new colors" wad has that. I'm not a fan of it, so I don't use what it offers. I just have it to play on the servers.

Also, you can edit posts.

So i cant get this to work either. i need a more up to date console-method version, as it doesnt work when i put
name "cfGold cfPie" it shows up wrong. Example: Client cfGold cfPie disconnected. Any help?

You have to add a second set of backslashes if you're doing it in the console.

like so: name "\\cfGold \\cfPie"
That being said, you don't need to have the second cf if you're just changing both words to the same color, so you could just do "\\cfGold Pie"
