Element Text Color (for Skills and Items)

Element Text Color ​

(version 1.01)​

Intro:

Hurray! My first plugin! 

Let me get straight into the details.

What This Plugin Does:

This plugin edits the text color of Skills and Items shown in the Menu outside and inside battle.

The text color is based off of the Skill's or Item's "Damage Element."

The "Damage Element" is the element of the damage that the Item or Skill does.

How To Use It:

In this plugin's parameters, you'll find a list of choices that state: "Element ID 1" all the way to "Element ID 20."

You can input a number into a specific element ID that corresponds to the colors in the Window.png file.

For example:

If you wanted to make it so all the Skills and Items that did Fire Damage were colored red, then you would go to the Fire Element's ID (by default it is 2) and set it to the color red (which is 2 or 10 by default).

That is quite cool I will have to remember this when I'm at this stage of the game

I have been really wanting a plugin like this. any chance you can let us set a tag instead of element (so this can be used as a rarity indicator without effecting the element)

The truth is, I wanted to do that from the beginning. But I'm a dumb noob that doesn't know anything. >.<

Oh well, I'll ask this forums for help. If I get it to work, I'll release a plugin that allows you to color your Skills/Items/Weapons/Armor text individually.

Sound good? ;P

As a suggestion, maybe you could make the damage pop up colored too. That would be even more awesome!

Awesome plugin BTW, absolutely using it.

I want this but it falls short for me as I have some elemental skills that do no sort of damage whatsoever But I still would like to identify the element with a color.

Will be using for an "Exercise Project" called GLORY TO THE RED CRAYON. May or may not be put on steam ( will not be selling it though since it is just an exercise project).

P.S. If you know anything about the USMC and their obsession with crayons; you might have a better understanding of this game's theme.
