I've seen some youtube video's where people changed the combat log that shows up when someone shoots at you or when your gun(s) fire. But the thing is I can't find anywhere how this is done. I suppose it can be done by changing one of the XML files, but I couldn't find this file either. I want to make an application that makes it easy to change the looks of the combat log but ofcourse if I can't even find how it's changed, I won't be able to even start.
So my questions are:
Is it still possible to change the template of the combat log (the colors of the text as well as the text it's self)?
What file should be edited in order to change the default template?
Kind regards,

There is an option in the Eve settings to allow (or disallow) simple damage notifications which changes the format of the combat logs, both displayed on screen and in the gamelog files. Not sure if this is what you're referring to though.

Doesn't sound like it since he specifically mentioned colours. |

Yes but in the Eve settings you can only change wether you want to show them or not. What I would like to do is change, for instance, the color of the damage or the color of the shiptype etc.
An example is shown here.
Thanks to the imba quality of the image (not!) it's not really clear what the message is, but it says the following:
Quote:Your group of Heavy Pulse Laser I hits shiptype
Harbringer
Pilotname: meatomatic
shipname: Corsair
Alliance: [RVB-B]
Distance: . doing 3304 damage
Kind regards,

This was done via the overview settings files and generated from a now dead website. Someone was possibly going to recreate the site a few weeks ago.

I'm busy on it as well, but it will be an external application that can only export an XML-file for the global settings (so overview settings will stay unchanged). A website would be a lot better ofcourse since it's less of a threat, but I suck on PHP/HTML/whatever other language is out there.
@NickyYo:
I hope you don't mind that I'm also on it (even though it's only for creation of a global settings XML rather then an XML for the full overview as well). I'd like to see the differences between your global settings part and mine, I hope you feel the same about it.
Cheers,

All is good, more different version is the better.

Does anyone know if it's possible to get info like velocity on the shiplabel/damage notification? I tried some things in the XML-file and been looking on the internet but I couldn't find anything so I suppose not.. Which is just a tiny bit of a bummer as info like that would be perfect on a shiplabel imo.

Unfortunately not. The velocity information is not available on the notifications/selected item text. |

Alright I'm having a rather strange problem with the imported xml-file. The import works good, but about half of the time some parts aren't shown how they should be, for instance:
When the shiplabel should look like this:
[corpticker] pilot name 1248m
On some players it looks like this:
] pilot name 1248m
Or when the shiplabel should look like this:
[corpticker] pilot name
1248m
On some players it looks like this:
[corpticker] pilot name 1248m
It seems to me that some parts of the label are simply not shown. The ] of the first example is stated in the pre of pilot name, which is probably the reason why this is shown, but the whole corporation part isn't. And when the distance (or part None at the end of the global settings) isn't shown there still is a distance, but it's shown with the font-options of the previous part rather then font-options stated in the pre of part None.
Has anyone else run into the same problem or might know a way to fix this? Since I can't post html I won't be able to post my xml I used either :(

Ok I've found a fix for my second example posted above, however the first example I posted above still isn't fixed. I did find a reason why this is though...
Whenever someone is not in a player corp the corp isn't shown. Labels with the part "None" also aren't shown in this case. Does anyone know a workaround for this? This is especially important for me so labels with part "None" will be shown on players in an NPC-corp.
At this moment there's also a note in-game telling me that the additional text is only shown when a corp ticker is possible. This is possibly because custom shiplabels may not affect NPC's or stations and such, but sadly enough this also brings this problem with it.
Any idea's are welcome!
