Just woundering, this is for more advanced modders, i see Microsoft Direct Shader Compiler headers in Hex, is there raw for shaders?

Nope. And not to burst your bubble, but this has been found long before.

yea i know that this has been done before but I finally figured it out!

Go to remnant mods and download my widget gradient flash .txt doc and use the table to edit HUD colors!

Have fun!

Cool... But your document really doesn't explain what is what at all...

Im thinking maybe I should just release the HUD Editor with colors now, and do placements later once I'm free of the other things killing my time..

Cougar the one furthest along with the HUD shield_meter colour; research would go so much faster if all the value where not "unkown" >_<

Anywho; I have got a properly working coloured shield_meter the method is improper because I am unsure of the device that allows colour in the function to show up but working on it; info will of course be released on Remnant.

well i was thinking with shield colors can we swap the shader for the shield with like a different shader that has a meter???

i tried the plasma meter and it worked! but there are a few problems i will try to fix them! this may be our only way to change shield colors (for now) but i will do some more guess and check stuff with shaders all day i will tell you if it works or not! well i will start working now if you want to help fell free to do so!!!

You can shader-swap it but it needs some edits to make it work properly; also some colours; no some "shades" are not in the shader tag. I am yet unsure how to edit theese

YAY different color shield meter!!!

How you may ask... well here is my answer:

What meter is NOT available in multiplayer?

It's in Campaign!!!

The active camo meter for the elite! change the color values in that! and link them to the object shader in the meta editor under the shield meter in the masterchief or the dervish.

here is a pic:
