How to Change Control Text Color or Chat Color in Counter Strike 1.6

Wednesday, December 17, 2008

The Control Text color is the color that is shown for the chat text in the left bottom. This color can be changed to required color from the default orange. The command for this is

con_color "250 250 250"

This color can be anything and it can be changed from 0 to 255. It should not exceed 255. All 0's mean black and all 255's mean white. You can see the colors and their corresponding numerical combinations in the Paint application of windows. Select the color and see the numbers. Give those numbers in this command.

There is no need to give the command each time you start the game. It will be saved. Or else, you can directly see the command in the Config.cfg. Edit there and it is for ever. In the same config.cfg you can see the crosshair color and size too.
