different creeper colours?

[zerggodmaster]

will we be able to customize the creeper we fight like what we had in creeper world 3???

there was one picture on the discord with black creeper. but i don't know for certain. i would say it is likely

while in principle knucracker wants to provide options on creeper color, the reality is that it's very, very complicted. the 3D-rendered creeper has multiple colors, Alpha/beta channels, lighting options and whatnot. For different color options some of those all need adjustment, and as I said, even this "single" color render has multiple colors in it.

So, it's either create a custom rendering engine that is exposed to user customization. or a half-baked solution that doesn't deliver pleasing results, or go with one color. The final decision has not yet been made.

May I add my vote for doing one colour right, rather than trying to overextend? Quality has always been one of Knuckle Cracker's strong suits, and I'd hate to see that suffer over such a minor thing.

Please please don't remove this feature. I am colour blind, and this is the only reason I could tell the difference between creep and anticreep. So many games have a generic "colour blind mode" which is barely ever sufficient. Being able to pick my own colours was a huge deal for me.

i belive thought has been given to colorblind mode. if you tell me what colors you use i can pass it on through the discord. or you can do it yourself the link is in the pined threads.

also the default colors in CW4 for anti creeper is very diffrent than CW3. that may help. i must admit i know nothing about color blindness though
