[Mod Bug][0.82] Can't mod ColorDefs in separate xml [Edit... nevermind]

Posted on Thursday, April 16, 2015

When creating a mod, I seem unable to create custom color schemes via xml.  (The mod works fine now, so the mod is loaded).  However, in my "Game" folder, the file "ColorDefs_Kuja" is not being read.  Instead, in game, the color scheme appears black.  In the debug file the error reads:

Debug Message:  GetColorByLabel could not find requested color, defaulting to black

If I move the file to the Program Files location with the original ColorDefs_Kuja, I receive the same error.  So it is not a problem of mod folder locations.

If I copy the contents of my file (just the <color>..</color> elements) and place it directly in the original ColorDefs file, then it works just fine.  (I am somewhat experienced as a modder... so I am certain the xml tags are correct.  )

Basically, it seems that the game does not like a second <ColorList>....</ColorList> in a separate file.  

 

Can anyone else confirm the same experience?
