How do I change font COLOR?

[Wondercheese]

I guess i'm a bit of a n00b, but I can't find anywhere in the scripts that deifnes the COLOR of the FONT.
If anyone knows which script this is in and/or how to input color, please say.

if you're in the script editor, hit <cntl-shift-F>, then type in "color"

Thanks, but I tried that. There are several scripts which edit the font color back to "regular color2 but I want to know the origin so I can edit the original.

It's a sad day when I have a scripting answer, of all people.

Go into Game_Temp, it's the very first thing in the script menu. At Line 1, hit enter, then type the following line:
       
              Font.default_color = Color.new(255,255,255,255)

This has to be the first thing in the list, even before the line of green dashes. Also, since the scripts are in American English, it has to be spelled 'color', instead of the more European 'colour', so no U.

Now, that makes the font black. To get other colours- and I'm assuming that it goes RGB- just lower the first three sets of numbers; the first set is red, the second green, and the third blue.  I think the fourth set is tone or intensity. Of coarse, like I said, that's assuming the order is RGB: so for red font, you would adjust it so that the numbers read, " 255,0,0,255", for yellow font its '0, 255, 255, 255', and so on.

You'll have to tinker with the numbers to get the colour you want.

This did not seem to work.
I have

Font.default_color = Color.new(255,255,255)
#==============================================================================
# ** Game_Temp
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  This class handles temporary data that is not included with save data.
#  Refer to "$game_temp" for the instance of this class.
#==============================================================================

I have input this wrong, let me know.
And is the RGB for black not 0,0,0?
I thought 255,255,255 was for white.

Hang on, I made a new script with
"Font.default_name = "Triforce"
Font.default_size = 20
Font.default_color = Color.new(0,0,0,255) "
And the font in shop windows is black.

No, just checked, you're absolutely right, it doesn't change the colour. Sorry about that. I should have tested before I opened my big mouth and made an ass of myself. Sorry again.

Ah, no problem. This is a bit odd, though that the font is black only in the shop window, and I have not edited that script at all.
Though I have read in it that it refers to the "default color" so in fact the script was correct, but the "default color" does not apply immediately to the program. So yeah, you were right. ^_^
