So I have not been able to test this yet, but it seems really compelling (Can't get the damn client to compile xD)

Soo I spotted this(Client - Interface - CNameBox.cpp - Line 360):

Line number On/Off | Expand/Contract | Select all

void CNameBox::DrawAvatarName( float x, float y, float z, CObjCHAR* pCharOBJ, bool bTargeted )
{
    DWORD dwColor = g_dwWHITE;
    
    const char* pName = pCharOBJ->Get_NAME();
 
    if( g_GameDATA.m_iPvPState  )/// PVP Mode, then ..
    {
        if( CUserInputState::IsEnemy( (CObjAVT*)pCharOBJ ) )/// If the team determines not me .. Avatar
            dwColor = g_dwRED;
    }
 
    if( pName && strlen( pName ) > 3 )
    {
        if( pName[ 0 ] == '[' && pName[ 1 ] == 'G' && pName[ 2 ] == 'M' && pName[3 ] == ']' )
        {
            dwColor = g_dwBLUE;
        }
 
        if( pName[ 0 ] == '[' && pName[ 1 ] == 'T' && pName[ 2 ] == 'M' && pName[3 ] == ']' )
        {
            dwColor = g_dwBLUE;
        }
    }

Now my theory is that if you were is add more IF's (for example):

Line number On/Off | Expand/Contract | Select all

if( pName[ 0 ] == '[' && pName[ 1 ] == 'P' && pName[ 2 ] == 'Y' && pName[3 ] == ']' )
        {
            dwColor = g_dwPURPLE;
        }

Now if you add [PY] to your name, then you will have a violet name tag.

Also take note of the "pName[ 0 ]" since the [ 0 ] value seems to be increasing with each condition(for example):
'[' would be 'pName[ 0 ]' since it is the FIRST condition in that line "theoretically"
'P' would be pName[ 1 ] since it is the Second condition in that line.

Please note that this is amature work and I could be wrong, but incase you want to test this theory; here you go

Nice find.

You are correct. That is definitely how you would change the color of the avatar name

Heya, so a slight update is in order.

I have made a special addition to my name (Like blue on GM's)
BUT I made a slight change, instead of giving others the luxury of seeing your sexy black name, I also managed to get it so that I can see my own black name.

If anybody is interested, I can post my code.

Regards,
Dibella

sure go ahead.

it might be worth starting up a new sub forum for little snippets of code like this
