Fenriswolf Posted September 10, 2012 Hello! This might seem to be a strange question, but how can I change the color the screen fades to when I press Esc during the game (and open the menu?) For example in Heretic, the screen gets a blue shade, while in Doom 2, its yellow (I think). Is there a way to change this in ZDoom? Has more or less aesthetic reasons but would be great to know! Thank you! :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Gez Posted September 10, 2012 It's a ZDoom thing (I think it was originally added to get more contrast between the menu and the in-game image behind it) and it is entirely customizable. See dimamount and dimcolor on the ZDoom wiki. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fenriswolf Posted September 10, 2012 Oh thank you! But I still don't really know how to work with these. Sice I want to change it permanently for everyone who play my WAD, I tried to include it somehow in my BAT-starting file, but it won't work that way: zdoom.exe encrypteraktuell6exp.wad +dimcolor "ff d7 00" 0 Share this post Link to post
Blue Shadow Posted September 10, 2012 You can set them in your mod/map by using MAPINFO (scroll down the table and check dimcolor and dimamount). 0 Share this post Link to post
Kappes Buur Posted September 10, 2012 Before setting up a MAPINFO lump, the easiest way to tweak the colour is by changing the values in zdoom-user.ini. 0 Share this post Link to post
