i saw something over on twitter that it has to be installed in another directory: https://twitter.com/poggu__/status/1698726872723464616

@13x1 I fixed it by first writing -language english then -language textmod in the console, it worked.

Thanks!

Big thanks, this is great!

I have some questions regarding the coloring of some of the radio messages like "Smoke" or "Grenade".
How excatly can I change the color of these? I looked at the textmod from bananagaming and saw that they used color hex values in front of the messages to change the respective color and I don't understand how this works in this release.

The colors of some messages changed cerntainly as I can tell, but I don't get how it works and how I can change it by myself. Does it maybe have something to do with these sepcial characters � ? What do they exactly do to the code?

Would be really nice if someone knows and could tell how to change the colors...

Greetings

I cant it to work dosnt matter where i put the file and what else i do.

@Skaewlkr in the bottom of text file, you'll see lines starting with "//" includes all formatting. Those lines are supposed to be an instructor. Check it out, it's easy, you'll find it! 👍

Thanks for the reply @AzizKerim. I saw them in the beginning but I couldn't figure out how xPaw managed to color some of the messages without using the listed hex color values. For exmaple:

Line 28 "SFUI_TitlesTXT_Fire_in_the_hole" "�• Grenade"

This message appears ingame written in red but there is none of the hex values listed at the end that is connected to that line. The only thing i can see which could be somehow connected is that special character "�" that appears if you copy the line. To my logic, this hex value (// C07 #ff4040 � - Penalty, Light red) should be written in front of "• Grenade" to color the message in red.

So am I supposed to do it like in the old bananagaming release and just add the hex values in front of the message? How did xPaw manage to color the messages without using the hex values?

Great edit of the classic textmod, thank you for updating it for CS2. Near essential.
But I do have one small nitpick about default configuration: team chat signs ( (T), (CT) ) being coloured with C08, the same colour as [Dead] sign. To me it just felt a bit confusing during gameplay due to text blending together. C05 fits much better and improves readability, in my opinion.

Is there an easy way to adapt these changes to the German translation? I love the simplicity, but I got used to the German version.

Hello, @xPaw! Thank your for this modification.

Here are some suggested changes of mine for it (it includes the modified .txt file and a .html DIFF file): https://send.vis.ee/download/d1248cc60c93cc13/#g-hEuYWYc9pBe41HYRgzsw

I also suggest creating a repository so that we can follow it and be notified when updates are made to the textmod instead of having to come here and check manually.

Thank you for your attention.

@Skaewlkr Use a good editor that can actually show you different characters, the hex codes are just a reference, and the character after it is the actual thing that modifies the color.

@Tiagoquix All you did was removed the leading whitespace in strings, which is needed for colors to work (due to a bug?)

I moved it to a git repository here: https://github.com/xPaw/CS2

AFAIK the whitespaces aren't necessary for the colors to work. They're just arbitrary spaces added by Valve.
And, no, that was not all I did. I did some other changes too, such as changing VIP strings and adding a dot to the defusing and planting strings. Please recheck the diff file.

Thanks for moving it to a git repository. To use notifications as I mentioned (for future changes), you should publish the textmod as a release rather than just doing commits to the file itself.

AFAIK the whitespaces aren't necessary for the colors to work.

They were necessary last time I tested it in CS2, with the joined team messages. VIP strings are gone anyway.

@xPaw Thanks for clarifying how it actually works. I now used another editor and I can finaly see the real characters.

Fix? I tried putting -language english and -language textmod but unfortunately it didn't work, any other fix?

having the same problem

@robertobro @jeswastaken Ensure you are putting the file inside /game/csgo/resource instead of /csgo/resource, with the same name in your launch options as in the name of the file (e.g. -language textmod for a filename of csgo_textmod.txt). Also make sure you're using the latest version of the textmod from the new repository, and that the filename hasn't had other text added to it (such as (1) for duplicate files).

All these instructions are available on the new repository.

oh shit thanks, i was accidentally putting it in csgo/resource and not game/csgo/resource

I am trying to modify some colors in chat, I want the DEAD in front of the players name in red to be exact, but this does not seem to work, it only displays the color of the team I am on. The rest works fine.

ps.: I am using the color of the HE's in front of DEAD.

Nvm, I am dumb, just read line 14, I need to add a space prefix.
