Velious99UI - Green Server UI - Feedback/Bugs/Discussion

I don't even know what's broken at this point.

What colors are we talking about here? This game has translucent, black.. as in like, the absence of color, windows right?

Am I some kind of colorblind where the empty night sky for you guys is like, a color? Because for me its the same absence of color that the translucent window is?

Is it that the window itself is translucent that is creating a muted "color" that is making it hard to see?

Is this not helping? This is all customizable:

larger caps font
custom font colors
nontransparent (color is dealers choice) windows

I would like to add that if your eyesight is poor, decreasing the resolution of your monitor can help.

I have played on my living room television set, but to do that I had to reduce my games resolution by quite a bit. Which is a good solution if you are having vision problems with the game.

I mistakenly thought that everyone was complaining because of a color choice. I mean, they were in a way, but really the "translucent that is creating a muted "color"" was the issue for them I think, and as I noted that's not something you can fix by just picking more WCAG-friendly colors (you just have to turn the translucence off, and that translucence definitely should be on by default to be classic).

But since I made a fuss I'm going to go check the merchant window colors to see if any of them fail the test, and if so I'll try to suggest better ones.

EDIT: Merchant colors are also white on black, literally the highest contrast possible. Even just visually I'm almost certain that the blue in the headers contrasts enough, but I'll find its code and check it to be sure.

Also I guess people might be complaining about the non-white text colors too, and I'll double-check all them, but again just visually I'm 99% sure the colors contrast great, and the whole issue is the transparency.

I guess on the plus side after I do this if anyone complains you can say "Our UI is WCAG-compliant ... if you just disable the 100% classic opacity, which we're not removing by default because classic, and only takes two seconds to do yourself."
