Hi guys. Do you want colors in your Map/Film description ? =)

Yes ? So, this tutorial is for you. Enjoy !

 

An example of a result:

http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/7926/sanstitreaj7.png

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>

 

- Thanks to Anthony -

 

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 ! :)

Ill researched this stuff and found some new symbols that a friend of mines will be making applications out of. Also I found some new variables that show different results. Things like:

<controller0_gamertag/>

<lobby-multiplayer-map/>

<color-armor1/>

<lobby-campaign-level/>

<lobby-campaign-difficulty/>

<party_size/>

and MANY others. They are found in the halo 3 locales in strings like "<color argb=#ff76a1d3>TOTAL EXP:</color> <xp-value/>" The FF in the beginning is the alpha which defines opacity from what I can infer.

Here is a long list of locales extracted from the mainmenu.map

ZOMGZ0RZ! Does this mean that we can now has campaign maps/difficulty in t3h custom games lobby??!?? Or do locales have nothing to do with that, seeing as how they are all teh text ASCII uber pwnzorsz lulz candy bar sandwich???????????

(can i make pictures of campaign maps or change the difficulty in custom games lobby?)

Anyone test them?

 

Yes. I've tested: <controller0_gamertag/> which showed the first player controller's gamertag. <day_of_week/> <month_name/> <day/>, <year/> and <time_hms/> which showed up as a clock, the day, the month and the year (all of which change in relation to the current time dictated by your xbox). <bnet-pro-button/> and <bnet-pro-message/> which both did nothing just showed up as "<bnet-pro-button/>" and "<bnet-pro-message/>."

 

I've also tested about 7 or 8 others which i can't seem to remember at the moment, but the odd thing was that they did not just show the text i had edited in the hex editor. They came up as nothing. It was blank, but that leads me to think that just as with editing the text colors it may need a sort of value and suffix(i.e. for changing text color it would be <color argb=#FF******>Value and </color> which would be the suffix. If I sound like a n00b or have no idea what it is that i am saying, then please feel free to flame me.

I understand. And you're probably right. Sort of like the <img> tag in HTML. You need to state the <img src="your image source> and the </img> part.
