The textbox feature can change the color when it's set at character level. NOT when it's defined inside the text (with a
{color}-tag).{color}-tag. For example when a character is saying this:{color=#999}Some text{/color} it would be a grey text (color code #999){color}-tag like this:
That's exactly what I'm trying to do. For example I can define text characteristics for the character Banu which works fine for the things she says out loud. However it doesn't affect the text in the example which is text that she is thinking. What I want to find is where the characteristics are given for the text she and other characters are thinking. I have looked through all the character names using the Universal Ren'Py Mod but none of them appear to be related to character thoughts or narrator commentary.Right, that wasn't part of the original question (at least I didn't get it from there), it was then mentioned in the reply after I wrote a short instruction on how to replace text
I'm not sure if you can replace or change text colors at all with URM, unless you use the new "Textboxes" feature, which then will replace all the textboxes of course with custom settings.
Now that we know the game, I was able to look into its code -- and together with the solution 0x52 provided earlier, here's how you can do it.
That should do the job I'm trying to do. It looks like all the instances of character thoughts and narrator commentary are hard coded in the way you showed rather than being assigned to a character name as the dialogue is (I think). Now I'll just have to look up the number for the color white and follow your instructions to get what I'm looking for.Now that we know the game, I was able to look into its code -- and together with the solution 0x52 provided earlier, here's how you can do it.
I used "unren" to unpack and decode the actual game code, then searched for the line I saw in your screenshot. Instead of searching for the code, you could also use unren to enable the "Developer menu", and when in game, hit Shift+D and select "Interactive Director (D)", which will display the line of code at the very top:
So in the code those lines are coded as follow:
So we can do exactly what 0x52 said: replace "{color=#526168}" with "{color=#WhateverColorYouWant}":
Before:
After:
This even works together with URM's customized textbox!
Hope that helps!
et voilà - Now the character's thoughts are displayed as I intended (in white).
You're very welcome! A "Thumbs up" is always very appreciated as well ;-)
Have you tried using URM with this game?
Already use latest version of Urm n test the modify code from parasite black on the list but not working at all for example "mc1.hp n many more n there is the case when i try code "goldgain it can modify with Urm but after battle the code reset again. Please check

Depends on what you mean by that. If you mean if you can use URM to unlock subscriber (Patreon, Subscribestar etc.) only content, the answer is: it depends. It Depends on how it's coded into the game, for some games it does work, for others it's a bit trickier or doesn't even work at all. If you tell us what game you're thinking about, I'd love to check...
