How do you get the colors on the signs for buildings? and how do you get the signs that have like 2-3 lines of text? I see them all the time and can't figure it out. I have merchant skills 2-0-4-4.



Anyone?

You need to have a tiny bit of hex codes knowledge for colors and the ability to cut and paste in the game.


For cut and paste goto your keymapping (ctrl-O) and look for cut and paste then map your keys to this.


Next open up the ingame mail, start a new mail and use this mail to type out the name ya want for your building. If you want line breaks do it as well in this mail mssge.


Now cut the building title from your mail mssge, make sure your house setname text box is open, then highlight the setnname line and paste the title from your mail message here.



For text colors:


for text color ya must place before the text to be colored "\#FFFFFF"


the "\#" is to say a color is gonna be input. The "FFFFFF" is the actual code for a given color.


Heres a few examples of color codes:



Red: \#FF0033


Light Blue: \#3399ff


Light Green: \#33cc33



there are many other colors out there. Now that ya know about this just do a search for hex color codes or HTML refenence websites.

You need to move higher in advertising before you will be allowed to use that droid to bark for you.

Hi all. I have a noob question regarding merchant profession. If I have 8 slots that I can fill in the merchant prof., what 2 trees or combo of boxes would be the best for me to take? All responses are appreciated.


Thanks

I would recommend Advertising 3 because you'd be surprised how many people still use it.

Then the Management line will give you more vendors and increase your item limit.

That gets you different vendors and you can dress most npc vnedors but the added bugs it's about useless. Use vending machines and go 3-0-0-4 (I use 3-4-0-4 which get me to list vendors, reduced maintenance cost, 10 vendors and 3k items).

Thanks for the suggestion all. Sorry I was out of the loop for a while. I definately want to be able to select different vendors. I have had to destroy many of my random ones because they were awful.
