Thanks for the suggestion Danny,

Would this method work with a two coloured shirt for instance? or only where the shirt was one colour?

Thanks,

Jim

A useful command within the GM scripting language to change the colours within a sprite would be useful, it could take the form of:

spr_changecolour(old color,new color)

There are third party scripts to do this but they are all slow.  The function would be useful for my soccer game to change the team strips/player skin colours.

Does anyone have the Zip file for this? The download link is no longer working.

Thanks,

Jim

Quick question Icuurd,

You say the colours read from the bitmap are in blue green red (BGR) order, how do I do the check when replacing colours or does it not matter?  I have my game colours (all possible colours for the kits) in an array, like below but these are in RGB:

gm_colours[0] = make_color_rgb(255,255,255) // White
gm_colours[1] = make_color_rgb(255,255,153) // Cream
gm_colours[2] = make_color_rgb(255,255,51) // Yellow
gm_colours[3] = make_color_rgb(255,102,255) // Pink
gm_colours[4] = make_color_rgb(102,255,51) // Light Green
gm_colours[5] = make_color_rgb(51,153,255) // Light Blue
gm_colours[6] = make_color_rgb(255,204,0) // Orange
gm_colours[7] = make_color_rgb(255,0,0) // Red
gm_colours[8] = make_color_rgb(153,0,0) // Dark Red
gm_colours[9] = make_color_rgb(102,51,0) // Brown
gm_colours[10] = make_color_rgb(153,51,153) // Purple
gm_colours[11] = make_color_rgb(0,0,102) // Dark Blue
gm_colours[12] = make_color_rgb(0,51,255) // Blue
gm_colours[13] = make_color_rgb(51,102,51) // Dark Green
gm_colours[14] = make_color_rgb(153,153,153) // Gray
gm_colours[15] = make_color_rgb(0,0,0) // Black

To compare do I just compare the data read from the bitmap, i.e. if dataread=gm_colours[10]?

Thanks,

Jim

Wow Icuurd, I never thought of doing that!  I will experiment over the weekend, no doubt this will be bar far the quickest solution.
