An example of a result:

It's not really a Green, but a Yellow greened.

 

Step 1: Make your file.

Step 2: Extract the file from your Xbox 360.

Step 3: Open it with a Hex Editor.

Step 5: Search and replace your text description by the color code.

(Offset 0000D060)

 

Example: <color argb=#ff76a1d3>Description</color>

Step 6: Save, Rehash, Resign and upload back to Xbox.

--------------------------------

(Verified) Colors codes:

<color argb=#55FFFFFF>Description</color>

<color argb=#ff76a1d3>Description</color>

<color argb=#FFe8ea1e>Description</color>

<color argb=#FFa1b375>Description</color>

<color argb=#FF8692d4>Description</color>

<color argb=#FFb139b5>Description</color>

The first value seems like it would be the Alpha channel.. It's always 0xFF which is 100%, someone should try making it 50%

 

((50 / 100) * 255 ) = 127.5

127 = 0x7F

 

So replace the first with value "FF" with "7F" and see if its 50% transparent

 

I think the colors possibilities are almost limitless. (Like on a web page with a .css).

All the best !

I'll create a program for this later.

 

Hopefully I can make it work.

 

 

You do realize that the color codes can only take up 120 characters in that files starting at a specific offset. So using color codes reduces whatever you want to say. lol
