    Colored text

    Hello,

    Well I want to combine 2 macros I found:
    /run if(not scm) then scm = SendChatMessage; end; function SendChatMessage(msg, type, lang, chan) scm("\124cff00B4FF\124Hitem:19:0:0:0:0:0:0:0\124h" ..msg.."\124h\124r", type, lang, chan);end;
    Makes me write in a blue color

    /run if (not scm) then scm = SendChatMessage; scmison = "yes" end function SendChatMessage(msg, type, lang, chan) if scmison=="no" then msg=msg; else for i=1,1 do msg = "\13"..msg; end end scm(msg, type, lang, chan) end
    Spaces so I write on the line under my name.

    So basicly I want my text to be colored (blue in this case) and on the line under my name
    like this:
    [Name] says:
    <GM>[Name] says: hey


    also if it's possible it would be great if it was possible to say something before it jumps on the next line and even better if it could be in different colors

    [Name] says: hey <-- White color on text
    <GM>[Name] says: hey <-- Bluecolor on text

    is this even possible?
    I've tried colorme! and it didn't work quite as I wanted and I want to modify it alittle myself, but first I need some help from you guys


    Edit:
    Found a solution! If you put \n everything will start on the next line. Here is the finished macro:
    /run if(not scm) then scm = SendChatMessage; end; function SendChatMessage(msg, type, lang, chan) scm("\n\124cff00B4FF\ <GM>\124cffFFFFFF\ "..msg.."\124r", type, lang, chan);end;

    Don't think it's possible, blizz fixed it back in early BC so that you couldn't write under your own text to impersonate someone.

    There was a addon that does this.

    http://www.mmowned.com/forums/world-...ing-addon.html

    Private servers can block it in 1.12.x so it may not work, but if you do download the addon it may not work with that early a WoW version. You can still go into the Lua files and see the strings that are sent to get the right code though.

    Also, please add a prefix when creating threads.

    If your talking about changing the color of your name it's possible, and it's possible without an addon to automatically have colored text.

    Okey, this macro is what I want it to say with colors etc.
    /run if(not scm) then scm = SendChatMessage; end; function SendChatMessage(msg, type, lang, chan) scm("\124cff00B4FF\ <GM>\124cffFFFFFF\ "..msg.."\124r", type, lang, chan);end;
    Now all I need is the other script in it so it comes on a new line. Any1?

    Back in the day the way to do it was to spam spaces till you get to the end of the little box that pops up that you type messages into, then start doing tags, e.g:

    /s Hi space-space-space-space-space-space(not the words the character space) <GM>Harry: I am awesome
    And it would look like somebody called <GM>Harry had actually said that. Get the right amount of spaces then type in the rest of the macro. If you can't fit it in, google for a addon that increases the size of the addons you can make (can't remember name of it).

    This doesn't work if people use interface/chat addons, like I do but if you read my first post I found something I could use ^^ thanks for answer any way
